Overview

Nēm Raŵy Vǖy was founded durring the early 14th century in fall of the year 1308, by Ma̋ń Réch 'Golden Teen' Bēnḱ Sé̄kīr Ga̋chī. The establishment of Nēm Raŵy Vǖy suffered from many setbacks, delays, and obsticles, most notably a group of Nēm Raŵy Vǖy which required millitary assistance exterminate before the community could finish being built.

Nēm Raŵy Vǖy was built using the conventions of Hobgoblin durring the early 14th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Nēm Raŵy Vǖy 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.

Nēm Raŵy Vǖy is buildings are arranged within a network of narrow worn bedrock streets which form a rectangular grid, where each block verries in size given the proximity of the paralell streets forming each section. The ocasional smaller block has been used to construct a park, plaza, and other communal structures. The town rests behind the absurdity that is a thick, timber braced, wall made of clay bricks. While visualy impressive and certainly an astetic, Nēm Raŵy Vǖy's wall provides no actual defence against siege equipment due to the choice of its cosntruction materials. Even nonexperts can tell the town is trying to impress rather than defend with its walls, towers, and gatehouses. Though admittedly, they do look nice... To primitive tribals who have never seen fortifications before. The town's political statment focused walls are visibly old, but also obviously maintained semi-regularly. Its likly the local malishia or garrison are tasked with ocasional mantance of the towns defences.

A look around Nēm Raŵy Vǖy is like a look into a broken heart which long ago fell to corruption. There is no planning, no organization. Everyone here clearly goes about their own thing with little thought to anyone around them who isn’t selling something they need… unless of course, they would be an easy target for some robbery. The town has truly fallen to evil.
