Overview

Làyàs̺o Chyâchâ Gûchya was founded durring the early 12th century in summer of the year 1139, by Trrierh. The establishment of the new community went well, with no major obsticles durring construction.

Làyàs̺o Chyâchâ Gûchya was built using the conventions of Rattu durring the early 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Làyàs̺o Chyâchâ Gûchya 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.

Làyàs̺o Chyâchâ Gûchya is buildings are located arround a single broad gravel mainstreet which forms a clockwise spiral to give the city a over all circular shape. The city rests behind a thin stone wall. The wall's design was likly directly copied from a castle's parmiter defences. It's simply that the arcatect made Làyàs̺o Chyâchâ Gûchya's wall substancialy thinner than a castle's walls. While the towers and gatehouses are adiquite, the obvious cost savings measure of making the walls drasticaly thinner reduces their ability to resist siege weapons greatly. The city's impressive-looking wall could fail at a critical moment in battle, and would likely not even resist a few bandits with improvised siege equipment. The city's budget oriented 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.

A quick look in any direction shows Làyàs̺o Chyâchâ Gûchya is filled with vices. There are many taverns, brothels are advertising their services on the streets, cardsharks are plying their illicit trade within public squairs, and every shop has at least three signs advertising various sales on goods. That alone wouldn’t be too noticeable, if it wasn’t just so omnipresent and overwhelmingly how the people of this city live. Or if the general public wasn’t so enthusiastically, openly, and merrily participating in these activities.
