Overview

Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ was founded durring the late 16th century in summer of the year 1496, by Cúrmp̪f̄ Cú̄̌s 'Taste Flaneuroi' Yä̂f̄kī Méó Caw̋nvēs. The establishment of Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ suffered from many setbacks, delays, and obsticles, most notably a group of Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ which required millitary assistance exterminate before the community could finish being built.

Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the late 16th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature delicute timber framework hidden behind layer upon layer of finly ground plaster bleached to an almost glossy white sheen, with green clay tiled roofs and decorative brass-leafed trim. Even the smallest, poorest looking structures appear to be expencive thanks to the extreem elegence of the organic shapes and paterns going into their lofty, spire-y, vagly gothic designs. The more well off folks live in identicle homes, save for even shiner trim and a more whimsical appearance to their structures flowing forms.

Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ is buildings are grouped arround an odd layout of broad flagstone streets, which seems to be based on an overlapping squair patern such that there are small squares at the cornor of every bigger square. Sometimes buildings exist in the smaller squaires, other times they are open spaces, or occupied by temporary structures. The city rests behind a thick wall made from clay bricks. The wall has all of the proper fortifications and is well made. Unfortuantly the nature of clay brick leaves it quite vulnerable to siege equipment, though the thickness of the wall lends it simmilar resistnace to a thinner hardrock wall. Astonishigly, the millitarily questionable fortifications are in pristine condishion, as if they had just been finished before you laied eyes upon them.

A look around Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ gives you an uneasy feeling. Everything is just a little too worn down, a little too dirty, or both. No one makes eye contact. Kids play quietly, but happily. Occasionally a passerby glances at you out of the corner of their eye, staring jsut long enough for it to be uncomfortable.

Points of Interest

Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ is centered around a major pilgrimage site. This may be a religious location of importance to a major faith, or it may be a more secular institution that draws the traffic, like a famous academy or the remains of some wondrous ancient work. Considerable local tension likely exists over controlling the access to the site and maximizing the profits from foreign visitors.

Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ's roads were poorly made when first laid. Rather than repairing them correctly, a series of new roads was laid atop the old, leading to the streets of modern Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ suffering from potholes, cracking, and even sinkholes. The locals often repair the road by putting down wooden decking.

History

In time immemorial, reportedly some time during the late 2nd century the Kami solved a major long term problem plaguing the town. One of Mûkâlà Qîremî Lîho Kâchyâ's local festivals commemorates this miracle.
