Overview
Ēji Trïp-kujé was founded durring the early 15th century in fall of the year 1449, by Courtney vyim Yuvnoyutsɪxt vyim Rolɑrtɑeplə˞rd vyim Yuvnotræ̝rg vyim Yuvnoyutsɪxt vyim Glə˞ʤine vyim Rovuldyutsɪxt vyim Fɪgsegraɑgki vyim Roxlendyutsɪxt vyim Yuvnonreys vyim Yuvnonreys vyim Fɪgseʤine vyim Glə˞tunk vyim Mɑnkʤine vyim Rolɑrtɑirdirn vyim Yuvnorusg vyim Rovuldrusg vyim Fɪgseʤine vyim Rolɑrtɑnreys. The establishment of the new community went well, with no major obsticles durring construction.
Ēji Trïp-kujé was built using the conventions of Gnollish durring the early 15th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Ēji Trïp-kujé is no diffrent. The metropolis'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.
Ēji Trïp-kujé is buildings are built arround a single restrictive paverstone mainstreet which forms a counterclockwise spiral to give the metropolis a over all circular shape. The byou metropolis rests behind the absurdity that is a thick, timber braced, wall made of clay bricks. While visualy impressive and certainly an astetic, Ēji Trïp-kujé's wall provides no actual defence against siege equipment due to the choice of its cosntruction materials. Even nonexperts can tell the town is trying to impress rather than defend with its walls, towers, and gatehouses. Though admittedly, they do look nice... To primitive tribals who have never seen fortifications before. Ēji Trïp-kujé's political statment focused walls are in an unremarkable state. To some, this is the ideal sate for defences to be in. In need of absoutly nothing, and ready to serve the metropolis as needed.
Right off the bat Ēji Trïp-kujé hits you in the face with its success. Everyone, even the peasants, are dressed in well made clothing. Every tool and implement you can see is finely made, and people will boast to you as obvious strangers of the wonders which can be found in their markets. More interestingly is a total lack of beggars, and plenty of new buildings are going up even as you speak. Somehow this metropolis has come into quite a lot of wealth, and recently from the looks of things. The new wealth has created some worrying attitudes in many passers by, such that it’s clear new laws have recently been enacted and enforced with such extreme scrutiny the locals seem to be going about their day as if by clockwork.
