Overview

Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu was founded durring the late 17th century in late fall of the year 1572, by Syltus. The establishment of Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu's construction back out of the project. Syltus pushed on reguardles, and Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the late 17th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu 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 Vahyîhi Kimu is buildings are speckled and packed arround spacious flagstone streets with seemingly no patern to them. It appears as if the city's residents simply built streets as they pleased and squeazed buildings in wherever and howeave rpossible, creating an organic, frustrating to navigate, maze of a city. The city sits behind an impressive looking clay brick wall. The wall is notable for querried stone blocks being used to renforce the clay bricks in the expected manner and locations. While the wall was built to the exact specifications of modern fortifications, one has to wonder why the money invested into creating such a well fortified wall wasnt spent on a less impressive looking wall crated from sturdier materials. Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu's walls would endure a brief bombardment, but only from light siege weapons. It seems more likly the city's walls were not designed with defence in mind but rather lending the town a certain air with visitors. Astonishigly, the boondoggle-of-a-fortified wall are in pristine condishion, as if they had just been finished before you laied eyes upon them.

A look around Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu 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 just long enough for it to be uncomfortable. This all rests atop the unmistakable impression the town is one of the strictest places imaginable. Everyone’s actions are clearly directed by laws they keep in heart and mind at all times. Orderly byond order is a phrase which Chyameya Vahyîhi Kimu brings to mind.
