Overview

Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä was founded durring the early 10th century, by Thugguhz Shaihr Mrirrui. The establishment of Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä was somewhat plagued by a lack of willing colonists, leading to Thugguhz Shaihr Mrirrui electing to pay people to resettle in Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä.

Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä was built using the conventions of Goblin durring the early 10th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature stone brick construction with most buildings posessing towers, turrets, dormers, and wide wrap-around porches. An extreem emphasis on decorative features and emblishments can be seen even on the poorest of homes and makes even the most humble of structures seem a bit regal.

Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä is buildings are arranged arround a single narrow flagstone mainstreet with many smaller streets branching off of it which gives the city a over all rectangular shape, albit one warped and twisted by the nature of the curves of the main road. The city rests behind the absurdity that is a thick, timber braced, wall made of clay bricks. While visualy impressive and certainly an astetic, Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä'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. The city's political statment focused walls are visibly old, but also obviously well maintained. Its likly the local malishia or garrison are tasked with routine mantance of the city's defences.

Ga̋nǎ Nāńshǖdzé̄˥ Ni̋ēkēä is not quite well. Something happened here, perhapse recently, perhapse long ago. Whatever it was, it settled into the very soul of the city like a festering wound. The people go about their day well enough, but there’s a tention in the air you can cut with a knife. You get the terrible feeling that whatever it was, the wound it left will simply never heal. This city is as a necropolice.

The creature likely serves as a protector as well as a tyrant, so the locals may be content with the deal even if it doesn’t offer any further inducement or aid.
