Overview

Têta-lècê Fêqê was founded durring the late 13th century in summer of the year 1158, by Grêli Èlkënm. The establishment of Têta-lècê Fêqê was only bairly constructed. The sheer number of problems with its founding were enough to make several of the backers funding Têta-lècê Fêqê's construction back out of the project. Grêli Èlkënm pushed on reguardles, and Têta-lècê Fêqê was finished, but starts off as a terible place to live.

Têta-lècê Fêqê was built using the conventions of Iron Elven durring the late 13th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Têta-lècê Fêqê is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature waddle and daub construction with good timber frames and a stone foundation protected by thatched or shingled rooves. Most buildings with second floors are built in such a way as to overhang into the streets on the upper floors for more space, as building size seems to be the primary indicator of wealth within the community. Most buildings are not decorated with any integral features, but instead use ivy, flowers, and other natural elements in planters of on trellices to breathe life into the structure they grow upon.

Têta-lècê Fêqê is was constructed arround several premissive gravel mainstreets which cross one another at certain axies, with smaller streets branching off of them to premit acess to the many buildings deeper into the road network. The overall fashion is remenessent of a circulatory system, or other organic construct, and is quite effishent in its design. The town emploies a series of defencive earthworks and fences to provide minimal protection against wild beasts and smaller groups of intelegent foes. Astonishigly, the somewhat suffishent are in pristine condishion, as if they had just been finished before you laied eyes upon them.

A look around Têta-lècê Fêqê makes it abundantly clear the town suffered something horrible some time ago. It's as if the town itself is depressed. Smiles are few, cheer is nowhere to be had. Everyone quietly goes about their daily business not looking anyone in the eye.
