The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez's construction back out of the project. Nrê Prodger pushed on reguardles, and Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez is no diffrent. The metropolis's buildings feature timber and earth construction, with most buildigns first floors resembling mounds of earth, with subsequent floors appearing as elaborate log cabins, with each building forming a tiered pyramid of sorts fromed from the stack of rectangular, peek roofed cabins. Most wooden bracing, support, and trim is carved with decorative knotwork, and the larger structures even feature painted trim which emphasises the knotwork.

Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez is buildings are arranged arround a single restrictive paverstone mainstreet with many smaller streets branching off of it which gives the metropolis a over all rectangular shape, albit one warped and twisted by the nature of the curves of the main road. The lakeside metropolis is the proud owner of a thick set of fortified walls fashioned from querried stone blocks. While not up to snuff for a fort or castle wall, the metropolis's walls are naturaly much larger than those of forts or castles. Therefore, the construction such a wall is most expencive. Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez's buget focused wall would serve its community well in battle in spite of looking unimpressive compared to castles and fortresses. Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez's top tier civilian fortifications has sufferd soem light damage, reducing its function a little in some spots, but could almsot certainly preform as expected... Though some of the worse spots could lead to the loss of defenders lives if attackers identified the weaknesses ahead of time.

Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez has the unmistakable air of a metropolis on its last legs. Everything is a bit slipshod and ramshackle. Everyone is at work, or drinking. No one has anything in their eyes other than fear and despair. Orcäbn Nabÿh Cewkez ’s existence was once fed by scholarly pursuits. But the income once drawn in by the works of scribes and academics has dried up and the metropolis is drifting down the stream of history as it dries up. Everywhere about the metropolis one can see abandoned schools, libraries, and other academic structures. Locals can be overheard having academic discussions, as well as talking about scholarly subjects in general. It’s quite clear the metropolis places a lot of value on education and being a learned individual. Even in these times.
