Overview

Vow Be Birěkhka was founded durring the late 13th century in fall of the year 1160, by Knaathriz Glkëg̈. The establishment of Vow Be Birěkhka suffered from many setbacks, delays, and obsticles, most notably a group of Vow Be Birěkhka which required millitary assistance exterminate before the community could finish being built.

Vow Be Birěkhka was built using the conventions of Constructi durring the late 13th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Vow Be Birěkhka 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.

Vow Be Birěkhka is buildings have been located at convienant points along the pond Vow Be Birěkhka was built upon. Navigating the town is therefore a little chalanging as the distance between buildings verris greatly and the broad cobblestone streets flow where they are able to be made rather than folowing the most convienant paths. The town 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. The town's failry decent fortifications have recently undergone extensive repairs and renovations, such that the repairwork is imeadiently apparent and can be spotted due to the diffring ages of materials. One can't help but wonder what brought the need for those repairs to the town.

Vow Be Birěkhka has a very calm atmosphere. People can be seen relaxing, scocilizing, and going about all manner of business other than the daily grind. Men, women, children, all can be seen enjoying life in a laid-back way in the many parks which line Vow Be Birěkhka’s streets.

The arch served as the style's chief structural element, with flanking columns serving as buttresses or decorations.
