Overview

Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû was founded durring the late 16th century in winter of the year 1488, by Ylvyhn. The establishment of Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû was plagued by a lack of willing colonists. After attempts to pay people to resettle failed Ylvyhn struck deals with nearby nations and communities to establish Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû as a prison colony.

Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the late 16th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature waddle and daub construction with good timber frames and a stone foundation protected by thatched or shingled rooves. Most buildings with second floors are built in such a way as to overhang into the streets on the upper floors for more space, as building size seems to be the primary indicator of wealth within the community. Most buildings are not decorated with any integral features, but instead use ivy, flowers, and other natural elements in planters of on trellices to breathe life into the structure they grow upon.

Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû is buildings have been located at convienant points along the valley Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû was built upon. Navigating the town is therefore a little chalanging as the distance between buildings verris greatly and the restrictive split-log ties streets flow where they are able to be made rather than folowing the most convienant paths. The city is the proud owner of a thick set of fortified walls fashioned from querried stone blocks. While not up to snuff for a fort or castle wall, the city's walls are naturaly much larger than those of forts or castles. Therefore, the construction such a wall is most expencive. Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû's buget focused wall would serve its community well in battle in spite of looking unimpressive compared to castles and fortresses. Unfortuantly, these top tier civilian fortifications are in extreem disrepair, so much so that one cannot tell if they are decaying from a lack of mantance or damage incured.

A look around Chyameya Dûbi Vuqû gives you an uneasy feeling. Everything is just a little too worn down, a little too dirty, or both. No one makes eye contact. Kids play quietly, but happily. Occasionally a passerby glances at you out of the corner of their eye, staring jsut long enough for it to be uncomfortable. People seem to be allowed to do as they please with little harmoney to anything. It feels less like a city, and more like a spot people just happened to place their homes.
