Overview
Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g Se was founded durring the early 11th century, by Szeebban Carew. The establishment of Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g Se suffered from many setbacks, delays, and obsticles, most notably a group of Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g Se which required millitary assistance exterminate before the community could finish being built.
Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g Se was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 11th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g 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.
Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g Se is buildings are arranged arround a network of restrictive packed earth streets which form a diagonal shaped grid, where each square verries in size given the proximity of the paralell streets forming each section. The ocasional smaller square has been used to construct a park, plaza, and other communal structures. The town has a defencive wall made from large clay bricks. The wall is constructed to the exact specifications of millitary fortifications, but the nature of its clay brick construction leaves it vulnerable to even outdated siege equipment. That said, the town is well defended against anything short of an army. Unfortuantly, these brittle defences are in extreem disrepair, so much so that one cannot tell if they are decaying from a lack of mantance or damage incured.
A quick look in any direction shows Kvíhzgi̊g Qimi̊g Se is filled with vices. There are many taverns, brothels are advertising their services on the streets, cardsharks are plying their illicit trade within public squairs, and every shop has at least three signs advertising various sales on goods. That alone wouldn’t be too noticeable, if it wasn’t just so omnipresent and overwhelmingly how the people of this town live. Or if the general public wasn’t so enthusiastically, openly, and merrily participating in these activities.
