Overview

Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà was founded durring the early 13th century in summer of the year 1244, by Eirwen Trëga. The establishment of Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà 's construction back out of the project. Eirwen Trëga pushed on reguardles, and Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà was built using the conventions of Wareneese durring the early 13th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà 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.

Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà is buildings are located arround a single broad flagstone mainstreet which forms a clockwise spiral to give the town a over all circular shape. The town 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 town's walls are naturaly much larger than those of forts or castles. Therefore, the construction such a wall is most expencive. Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà 's buget focused wall would serve its community well in battle in spite of looking unimpressive compared to castles and fortresses. Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà 's top tier civilian 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.

Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà has the unmistakable air of a town 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. Whatever industry once fueled Amûmo Gayu Kîchyà ’s existence has dried up and the town is drifting down the stream of history as it dries up. The people are clearly worried about something, and everyone is either wearing a weapon or has one close at hand. Your gut tells you it’s not mere fate which has caused this town to begin failing...
