Points of Interest

While private tutelage of worthy apprentices can be had even in most remote villages, Fìkh Hiz Ăschyokhka is home to a proper school dedicated to teaching magic. Such schools are usually small, with no more than a few dozen pupils, most of whom will fail for lack of talent or discipline. The instructors are rarely first-rate, usually serving only for the pay and status, but sometimes a genius sorcerer will find a reason to observe likely apprentices here. Given the unfortunate accident potential of the school, it’s probably isolated or well-fortified.

The center of Fìkh Hiz Ăschyokhka's town square was built around an ancient standing stone.

POI

History
