Points of Interest

While private tutelage of worthy apprentices can be had even in most remote villages, Eg Ÿhä Qulcet is home to a proper school dedicated to teaching magic. Such schools are usually small, with no more than a few dozen pupils, most of whom will fail for lack of talent or discipline. The instructors are rarely first-rate, usually serving only for the pay and status, but sometimes a genius sorcerer will find a reason to observe likely apprentices here. Given the unfortunate accident potential of the school, it’s probably isolated or well-fortified.

Eg Ÿhä Qulcet's roads were poorly made when first laid. Rather than repairing them correctly, a series of new roads was laid atop the old, leading to the streets of modern Eg Ÿhä Qulcet suffering from potholes, cracking, and even sinkholes. The locals often repair the road by putting down wooden decking.
