Overview

Ājafuknà Se was founded durring the early 18th century in early spring of the year 1748, by Eluned Fardd. The establishment of Ājafuknà Se was somewhat plagued by a lack of willing colonists, leading to Eluned Fardd electing to pay people to resettle in Ājafuknà Se.

Ājafuknà Se was built using the conventions of Tauric durring the early 18th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Ājafuknà Se 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.

Ājafuknà Se is is constructed arround a series of broad cobblestone mainstreets which form concentric circles, with smaller strait roads linking the circiles to each other at varrious points. The town is the proud owner of a properly designed set of renforced walls made from mighty querried stone blocks. Their construction and material choices would make a dwarf weap with joy, for each and every part of the elaborate fortifications are purly functional and robust well byond reason. Even nonexperts can tell the walls are an excelent defencive structure. The town's exceptionaly well made fortifications are visibly old, but also obviously maintained semi-regularly. Its likly the local malishia or garrison are tasked with ocasional mantance of the towns defences.

A look around Ājafuknà Se shows Ājafuknà Se is little more than a wretched hive of scum and villainy. Birbes can be seen changing hands openly, such that it must be customary to do so and must have been for a long time. The locals have no fear, no annoyance at the state of things, it simply is.

History

In time immemorial, reportedly some time during the early 2nd century, Ājafuknà Se was attacked by savage tribes living nearby Ājafuknà Se. The details of the conflict are hazy at best due to many conflicting accounts. What is known is Ājafuknà Se lost 273 people, 313 livestock, and 81 buildings. The conflict ended after roughly 162, when members of Ājafuknà Se's militia enacted an operation to bring aid to another fighting force. The operation was complicated by the enemy setting up an ambush. The conflict ended with pitched battle between both forces, which ended in defeat for Ājafuknà Se's forces. The war is remembered in legend by Ājafuknà Se's bards, historians, and legend keepers.
