Overview
U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ was founded durring the early 14th century in summer of the year 1306, by Ra̋chīs Ermboī 'Taste Nina' Ca̋chīy Gaw̋ń Cōń̄y. The establishment of U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ's construction back out of the project. Ra̋chīs Ermboī 'Taste Nina' Ca̋chīy Gaw̋ń Cōń̄y pushed on reguardles, and U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.
U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the early 14th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature masoned stone construction which prominantly features pointed arches, pointed ribbed vault cielings, flying buttress', and window tracery all of which share a simmilar gemoetetic patern halfway between organic and inorganic in design formaing a very distinct aesthetically integrated style. BUildings tend to reach for the havens, and more expencive homes are easily identified by their floor count as well as the addition of decorative features intigrated into the building's design such as statues, gargoyals, and embelished joinery.
U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ is was constructed arround several premissive cobblestone mainstreets which cross one another at certain axies, with smaller streets branching off of them to premit acess to the many buildings deeper into the road network. The overall fashion is remenessent of a circulatory system, or other organic construct, and is quite effishent in its design. The city posesses a fortified albit thin wall of querried stone. This wall posesses most of the features of a castle wall, though it is constructed from cheeper inferior stone. It would pose a minor chalange for an attacking army, though it's clear the wall's true purpose is to crush the hopes of bandits and marauders. U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ's failry decent fortifications are in an unremarkable state. To some, this is the ideal sate for defences to be in. In need of absoutly nothing, and ready to serve the city as needed.
A quick look in any direction shows U̽yà Unu̽ Kâchyâ 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 city live. Or if the general public wasn’t so enthusiastically, openly, and merrily participating in these activities.
