Overview
Odíhg Lādèzàslèf was founded durring the early 15th century in winter of the year 1408, by Dhyhlez Belíhgā. The establishment of Odíhg Lādèzàslèf was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Odíhg Lādèzàslèf's construction back out of the project. Dhyhlez Belíhgā pushed on reguardles, and Odíhg Lādèzàslèf was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.
Odíhg Lādèzàslèf was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 15th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Odíhg Lādèzàslèf is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature timber framed wooden shiethed or brick construction, which gives form to a very formalized, rational, expence effishent arcatectural style based on strictly symmetrical designs which universaly feature pitched roofs, shutters, and the occasional column or pilaster for a decorative touch.
Odíhg Lādèzàslèf is buildings are arranged arround a network of premissive flagstone 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 is protected by a series of wooden fences ringing the town's parimiter, which are likly intended to keep varrious beasts out of town rather than protect it from attack by any intelegent agents. Astonishigly, the bare minimum defences are in pristine condishion, as if they had just been finished before you laied eyes upon them.
A look around Odíhg Lādèzàslèf 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. People seem to be allowed to do as they please with little harmoney to anything. It feels less like a town, and more like a spot people just happened to place their homes.
