The Hold

The Hold is the default capitol of Vailya's North Spoke due to the lack of competting townships. It stands as a refuge for banished persons in a frozen wasteland. The majority of the population are Kiszuik Demons, agile feline-like hunters adapted for the snowy wastes.
==Stepped Housing==
The Stepped Housing is the area within the Bailey of permanate housing. This particular districe is build on granite steppes and is very stable. Within this district resides functional merchants, and a mock-economy. At the core of the Hold within the Stepped Housing is the Keep where none but the most privilged are allowed. As a general rule, the closer your home is to the Keep, the greater your status is.
==Wooden Bailey==
The Wooden Bailey that surrounds the permanate housing of the Hold is constantly being moved. As more wood becomes available, more homes are built and the housing to be walled grows. Because of the difficult terrain, the Bailey is comprised of weighed segments of palisade wall, which can be unhindged from their multiple weights to move each segment to acomodate growth.
==Skin Masses==
Outside of the wall is where most of the Hold's population lives. Lack of building material makes for harsh, and crude animal-skin shelters. Most Shelters are tents arranged in groups of five to seven to form a semi-circle, where a larger piece of material joins them together and leaves an open front. Most, if not all tents face south and southwest to avoid the wind. The only permanate structure in this area is a stone tower used as an embassy and resting place when Sky Knights arrive.
