Kaba

Kaba is a blufftop city in the northern part of Zamluno, on the Veldt. The city of Kaba is the center of a theocracy ruled by powerful priests. Though the most powerful priest goes by the title of "king" or "queen," there is no monarchy, and the line of rulership is not hereditary. As a result, laws in Kaba reflect the somewhat unstable nature of the Ndarwe priesthood, and a single law may undergo several changes in the course of a year. Visitors quickly learn to adapt to the changes, or else risk burning at the stake - a favorite punishment of the Ndarwe priests. Despite these challenges, life in Kaba is far from repressive. It is a vibrant and complex culture with a great love of art, science, and commerce.
The buildings of Kaba are constructed of sun-baked mud, and the exterior of the buildings sport wooden poles that jut from the walls at regular intervals. These poles form an exterior scaffolding, allowing construction workers to climb up and replace mud washed from the buildings after major storms. The largest building in Kaba is the Sun Temple, which does triple duty as a temple of the Ndarwe, the palace of Queen Zwali, and a military stronghold.
