Overview

Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni was founded durring the early 12th century in fall of the year 1047, by Glutshesh. The establishment of Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni's construction back out of the project. Glutshesh pushed on reguardles, and Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni was built using the conventions of Gnoll durring the early 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature plaster covered brick construction taking the shape of large simple gemometric shapes which ate then embelished with decorative features, but retain their simple shapes in spite of the added features such as pillars, faccaddes, and covered walkways. The blocky nature gives a general impression of extreem age, as if each structure has existed since time immemorial.

Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni is buildings are arranged arrounded highly ordered system of narrow cobblestone streets which form octogonal paterns, allowing the incides of the octagons to be common grounds for the buildings on the edges, be it for parkland, yardspace, plazas, or markets. The city 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. Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni's walls would endure a brief bombardment, but only from light siege weapons. It seems more likly the city's walls were not designed with defence in mind but rather lending the town a certain air with visitors. The city's boondoggle-of-a-fortified wall 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.

Kad Fusi-ī̄upáni seems to be abandoned at first. There are people present, working their trades and going about their business like any community, it’s just they are absurdly quiet. Just as you start to think there might be trouble, you see most of them are smiling, quietly exchanging words with a friend, or simply enjoying the day as they work. It reminds you of an evening at home as everyone dined, having run out of things to talk about and embraced the savory meal before them.
