Vm-49d Fèm Birěkhka is buildings have been located at convienant points along the pond Vm-49d Fèm Birěkhka was built upon. Navigating the town is therefore a little chalanging as the distance between buildings verris greatly and the narrow worn bedrock streets flow where they are able to be made rather than folowing the most convienant paths. 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.
