Overview

Gorj̼agli Se was founded durring the early 12th century in spring of the year 1131, by Lowri Èbê Glëkê Nash. The establishment of Gorj̼agli Se was somewhat plagued by a lack of willing colonists, leading to Lowri Èbê Glëkê Nash electing to pay people to resettle in Gorj̼agli Se.

Gorj̼agli Se was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Gorj̼agli 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.

Gorj̼agli Se is buildings are arranged arrounded highly ordered system of premissive cobblestone streets which form octogonal paterns, allowing the incides of the octagons to be common grounds for the buildings on the edges, be it for parkland, yardspace, plazas, or markets. The town posesses a mighty albit amaturly crafted stone wall. It was built using querried stone blocks and posesses all of the standard defencive features, including a few watch towers. While it would last against a siege, the wall's outdated and simplistic construction method percludes the possability of Gorj̼agli Se weathering a full scale bombardment durring a siege. Unfortuantly, these budget focused millitary grade defenses 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 Gorj̼agli Se gives 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 Gorj̼agli Se brings to mind.
