Overview

Mirâ Gûbu̹chû was founded durring the late 16th century in fall of the year 1492, by Groundami Shêbrêye. The establishment of Mirâ Gûbu̹chû was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Mirâ Gûbu̹chû's construction back out of the project. Groundami Shêbrêye pushed on reguardles, and Mirâ Gûbu̹chû was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Mirâ Gûbu̹chû was built using the conventions of Wareneese durring the late 16th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Mirâ Gûbu̹chû 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.

Mirâ Gûbu̹chû is is constructed arround a semi-circular crampt gravel mainstreet, with smaller strait roads linking the circiles to eachother at varrious points. 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 While it would last against a siege, the wall's outdated and simplistic construction method percludes the possability of Mirâ Gûbu̹chû weathering a full scale bombardment durring a siege. Mirâ Gûbu̹chû's budget focused millitary grade defenses has sufferd soem light damage, reducing its function a little in some spots, but could almsot certainly preform as expected... Though some of the worse spots could lead to the loss of defenders lives if attackers identified the weaknesses ahead of time.

Right off the bat Mirâ Gûbu̹chû hits you in the face with its success. Everyone, even the peasants, are dressed in well made clothing. Every tool and implement you can see is finely made, and people will boast to you as obvious strangers of the wonders which can be found in their markets. More interestingly is a total lack of beggars, and plenty of new buildings are going up even as you speak. Somehow this town has come into quite a lot of wealth, and recently from the looks of things. It’s easy to see where their wealth comes from the more you look arround. Every aspect of the town has been developed with care and great thought. The people themselves act deliberately and with care in even the simplest of daily actions.
