Jiahen Qeelsia's home

Jiahen Qeelsia and Marun lived in a five room home, built by Jiahen with help from Anza, Saikat, Deyos and Jukanaloq around 18 AJ. Additionally, Jiahen had an outdoor tent for guests, four stables for animals, and a shed. The house was built on a foundation of flat rocks, with acacia wood planks forming the core of the house. A mixture of fired clay bricks and mud was used for most walls. Jiahen also built a bed frame, furniture and even the doors.
The home, which today has the address Jiahenvor 1, 300 Qeelsia City, has been preserved by the Qeelsian government since Ulavin. Around 450 AJ, under Jironar Qeelsia II, a massive infrastructure program was implemented to protect the home from vandalism, desecration and other damage. This included constructing a massive, guarded wall around the perimeter of all land owned by Jiahen, reinforcing the stone foundation of the home with modern concrete to protect better in the case of earthquakes, and removing several personal artifacts from the home to avoid robbery. In 1340, additional reinforcement to the stone foundation, as well as to the walls was made.
Two rooms in the house and the shed was severely damaged in the 1872 earthquake, with the rest suffering milder damage. Due to the previous reinforcement efforts, a construction crew was able to re-assemble the rooms with the original material. In 1884, Niro Qeelsia commissioned further infrastructure measures to avoid damage in case of another earthquake. This included completely removing the house from the foundation in an elaborate mechanical process, building a new shock-absorbent foundation and placing the home on top of it. It also included building a metal frame which could support the acacia wood structure without causing major visual changes to the home. Rotting wood and dried, flaking paint was also replaced with appropriate materials. Following these new protection measures, Niro Qeelsia became the first avya to invite a foreign state leader into the home, which was previously only accessible to staff, a Grand Tijin and the royal family.
