Overview

Mîsho-èyèqa Bî was founded durring the late 12th century in spring of the year 1083, by Jó̄y Cúchīy 'Naughty Lofielie' Hä̂ Cawmē Jóńchīy Tshêpí. The establishment of Mîsho-èyèqa Bî was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Mîsho-èyèqa Bî's construction back out of the project. Jó̄y Cúchīy 'Naughty Lofielie' Hä̂ Cawmē Jóńchīy Tshêpí pushed on reguardles, and Mîsho-èyèqa Bî was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Mîsho-èyèqa Bî was built using the conventions of Iron Elven durring the late 12th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Mîsho-èyèqa 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.

Mîsho-èyèqa Bî is buildings are arranged arround a network of premissive baked earthen streets which form a diagonal shaped grid, where each square verries in size given the proximity of the paralell streets forming each section. The ocasional smaller square has been used to construct a park, plaza, and other communal structures. The town posesses a mighty albit amaturly crafted stone wall. It was built using querried stone blocks and posesses all of the standard defencive features, including a few watch towers. While it would last against a siege, the wall's outdated and simplistic construction method percludes the possability of Mîsho-èyèqa Bî weathering a full scale bombardment durring a siege. Mîsho-èyèqa Bî's budget focused millitary grade defenses are suffering from significent damage, so much so that examples can be pointed to no matter which section one might have within their line of site, and most of which render sections inoperable at present.

Mîsho-èyèqa Bî has a very calm atmosphere. People can be seen relaxing, scocilizing, and going about all manner of business other than the daily grind. Men, women, children, all can be seen enjoying life in a laid-back way in the many parks which line Mîsho-èyèqa Bî’s streets. Yet, deep down, you know this atmosphere is a carefully created illusion. You can see the ocasional seam in their tapestry. You’re not sure what has them doing their best to act so carefree, but act carefree they do.
