Overview

Vablês-qêdêza Dêtîkè was founded durring the early 10th century, by Yórmp̪f̄̄ Cúrmp̪f̄ 'Glaze Maeve' Mbó̄kīy Yó̄̌ Joīshī Èlesîpí. The establishment of the new community went well, with no major obsticles durring construction.

Vablês-qêdêza Dêtîkè was built using the conventions of Iron Elven durring the early 10th century. Naturaly, all settlmentss have their own look to them, and Vablês-qêdêza Dêtîkè is no diffrent. The town's buildings feature delicute timber framework hidden behind layer upon layer of finly ground plaster bleached to an almost glossy white sheen, with green clay tiled roofs and decorative brass-leafed trim. Even the smallest, poorest looking structures appear to be expencive thanks to the extreem elegence of the organic shapes and paterns going into their lofty, spire-y, vagly gothic designs. The more well off folks live in identicle homes, save for even shiner trim and a more whimsical appearance to their structures flowing forms.

Vablês-qêdêza Dêtîkè is buildings are arranged arround a network of spacious split-log ties streets which form a diamond shaped grid, where each diamond verries in size given the proximity of the paralell streets forming each section. The ocasional smaller diamond has been used to construct a park, plaza, and other communal structures. The town posesses a fortified albit thin wall of querried stone. This wall posesses most of the features of a castle wall, though it is constructed from cheeper inferior stone. It would pose a minor chalange for an attacking army, though it's clear the wall's true purpose is to crush the hopes of bandits and marauders. The failry decent fortifications have not been wellmaintained over the years, and while functional are in dire need of some loving care and perhapse light renovation.
