Overview

Mês-lithëlê Bî was founded durring the early 17th century in late summer of the year 1618, by Thurmir Dyèbe. The establishment of Mês-lithëlê Bî was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Mês-lithëlê Bî's construction back out of the project. Thurmir Dyèbe pushed on reguardles, and Mês-lithëlê Bî was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Mês-lithëlê Bî was built using the conventions of Iron Elven durring the early 17th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Mês-lithëlê Bî is no diffrent. The town'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.

Mês-lithëlê Bî is buildings are located arround a single broad paverstone mainstreet which forms a clockwise 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. Mês-lithëlê Bî'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 town's boondoggle-of-a-fortified wall have recently undergone extensive repairs and renovations, such that the repairwork is imeadiently apparent and can be spotted due to the diffring ages of materials. One can't help but wonder what brought the need for those repairs to the town.

A look around Mês-lithëlê Bî gives the unmistakable impression the town is one of the strictest places imaginable. Everyone’s actions are clearly directed by laws they keep in heart and mind at all times. Orderly byond order is a phrase which Mês-lithëlê Bî brings to mind.

Cultural Notes

Mês-lithëlê Bî is led by one or more incompetents. While they must have been very good at something to have acquired the position, they are fundamentally incapable of leading. Uncontrolled passions or lusts, commitment to a hopelessly impractical ideal, pigheaded obstinacy in the face of failure, a total lack of charisma or interpersonal skills, or profound laziness might all unfit them for their post.

Mês-lithëlê Bî's town hall was built using a different architectural style from the rest of the town. The style used is characterized by vertical proportions, pointed arches, external buttressing, and asymmetry in the general shape of its buildings. The decorative features of the style were key, consisting of large arched windows, pointed arches, vaulted ceilings, flying buttresses, and sculptures integrated into the structure itself. Occasionally, for very important buildings, an array of sculptures or one colossal sculpture might replace the entirety of the entrance to said building.

The Feyling near Mês-lithëlê Bî are known to be almost tame, such that they can be put to domestic use.

Mês-lithëlê Bî's citizens partake in a curious ritual relating to their local kami. It takes place in winter and involves line dance to channel Necromancy energies of tier 1 via oratory performances.
