Overview

Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze was founded durring the early 10th century, by Byoctîd Êtêv. The establishment of Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze was only bairly constructed.

Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze was built using the conventions of Wareneese durring the early 10th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze 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.

Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze is buildings are built arround a single premissive cobblestone mainstreet which forms a counterclockwise spiral to give the town a over all circular shape. The town sits behind an impressive looking clay brick wall. The wall is notable for querried stone blocks being used to renforce the clay bricks in the expected manner and locations. While the wall was built to the exact specifications of modern fortifications, one has to wonder why the money invested into creating such a well fortified wall wasnt spent on a less impressive looking wall crated from sturdier materials. Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze's walls would endure a brief bombardment, but only from light siege weapons. It seems more likly the town's walls were not designed with defence in mind but rather lending the town a certain air with visitors. The boondoggle-of-a-fortified wall has suffered a visible ammount of structural damage, leaving them effectivly useless. One can't help but wonder why the has not yet effected repairs.

Likely due to this, Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze is, in a word, disorder. People seem to be allowed to do as they please with little harmoney to anything. It feels less like a town, and more like a spot people just happened to have homes. One cannot help but wonder what Gæ Vu̽yûchû Mîze was like during the glorydays.
