Cultural Notes

Êye-g̈èsho Fêqê's garrison was built using a different architectural style from the rest of the town. The style used is best known for its functional shapes, abstract shapes used sparingly for decor, simple color schemes, holistic design, and basic industrial materials. Its simple designs were created to be beautiful, functional, and mass-producible. The style used little to no embellishment or ornamentation, instead drawing attention to the streamlined design, such as flat roofs to create a simple, geometric look. The simplicity masks the style's nearly sinister functionality, as every last feature is designed to guide the people living in the building in how to make the most efficient use of the structure.

Êye-g̈èsho Fêqê's citizens partake in a curious ritual relating to their local kami. It takes place in autumn and involves bloodletting to channel Illusion energies of tier 2 via proclamations.
