Overview
Fyàvièbùq Se was founded durring the late 11th century, by Arcticetus Probert. The establishment of Fyàvièbùq Se was plagued by a lack of willing colonists. After attempts to pay people to resettle failed Arcticetus Probert struck deals with nearby nations and communities to establish Fyàvièbùq Se as a prison colony.
Fyàvièbùq Se was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the late 11th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Fyàvièbùq Se is no diffrent. The town'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.
Fyàvièbùq Se is buildings are arranged arround a network of crampt flagstone streets which form a diamond shaped grid, where each diamond verries in size given the proximity of the paralell streets forming each section. The ocasional smaller diamond has been used to construct a park, plaza, and other communal structures. The town sits behind a stone-renforced palisade wall, with stone gatehouses and timber drawbridges for their trench. Fyàvièbùq Se's would-be-castle fortifications are suffering from significent damage, so much so that examples can be pointed to no matter which section one might have within their line of site, and most of which render sections inoperable at present.
Fyàvièbùq Se seems to be abandoned at first. There are people present, working their trades and going about their business like any community, it’s just they are absurdly quiet. Just as you start to think there might be trouble, you see most of them are smiling, quietly exchanging words with a friend, or simply enjoying the day as they work. It reminds you of an evening at home as everyone dined, having run out of things to talk about and embraced the savory meal before them.
