Overview

G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè was founded durring the early 15th century in spring of the year 1433, by Hêbë vyim Fɪgsetunk. The establishment of G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè was somewhat plagued by a lack of willing colonists, leading to Hêbë vyim Fɪgsetunk electing to pay people to resettle in G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè.

G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè was built using the conventions of Gnollish durring the early 15th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè is no diffrent. The metropolis'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.

G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè is buildings are built arround a single narrow flagstone mainstreet which forms a counterclockwise spiral to give the metropolis a over all circular shape. The byou metropolis 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. G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè's millitarily questionable fortifications are suffering from significent damage, so much so that examples can be pointed to no matter which section one might have within their line of site, and most of which render sections inoperable at present.

Points of Interest

G̈î-jekê Yêmë Îè has been cursed with some blight that makes life difficult, albeit not impossible. An offended sorcerer's vengeful Working, an outraged god's wrath, a local distortion of the Legacy, or a simple history of bad feng shui in the area may have brought the curse about. I(devise not only the curse, but the reason why the locals haven't left for better lands).
