Overview

The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Jîthël-êdêmêkè Ye's construction back out of the project. Ma̋ń̄ Mpf̄b 'Alexa Magic' Rä̋ch Mp̪voī Vúńoī pushed on reguardles, and Jîthël-êdêmêkè Ye was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

The city is the proud owner of a thick set of fortified walls fashioned from querried stone blocks. While not up to snuff for a fort or castle wall, the city's walls are naturaly much larger than those of forts or castles. Therefore, the construction such a wall is most expencive. Jîthël-êdêmêkè Ye's buget focused wall would serve its community well in battle in spite of looking unimpressive compared to castles and fortresses.
