Overview

Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠ was founded durring the late 15th century in spring of the year 1387, by Vicky Khorva. The establishment of Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠ was somewhat plagued by a lack of willing colonists, leading to Vicky Khorva electing to pay people to resettle in Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠.

Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠ was built using the conventions of Wood Elven durring the late 15th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠ is no diffrent. The city's buildings feature timber framed wooden shiethed or brick construction, which gives form to a very formalized, rational, expence effishent arcatectural style based on strictly symmetrical designs which universaly feature pitched roofs, shutters, and the occasional column or pilaster for a decorative touch.

Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠ is buildings are built arround a single crampt packed earth mainstreet which forms a counterclockwise spiral to give the city a over all circular shape. The city rests behind the absurdity that is a thick, timber braced, wall made of clay bricks. While visualy impressive and certainly an astetic, Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠'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. Ki̽-schyhyror Qo̠'s political statment focused walls has sufferd soem light damage, reducing its function a little in some spots, but could almsot certainly preform as expected... Though some of the worse spots could lead to the loss of defenders lives if attackers identified the weaknesses ahead of time.

The city shows nothing out of the ordinary, at first glance. Then you start to notice all the small things. Each window has seven iron nails pounded into the sill. Every door has a sprig of holly overhead. Every well is branded with purity seals and runes to ward the contents. Everyone is carrying a small charm for safety or fortune, be it a rabbit’s foot, a horseshoe, or other little totems.
