Dasroda

The city of Dasroda is a major city in the West, one of the original large city states which then formed countries later. In fact, the modern idea of the nation state is still relatively new to the West and more often than not, isn't particularly abided by its border-crossing citizens. For the most part, Western geopolitics revolves around several dozen powerful city states, some of which had grown into empires over the years, whereas the rest of the surrounding lands are governed by said city states and their cultural sphere of influence. In the modern era, there exist many overlapping areas called transcultural zones where multiple cultures are equally present or not present at all, in the case of barren deserts and dense forests.

Anyway, Dasroda is a city notable for its xeric shrubland and its many many temples and monuments to gods before the arrival of Reddeganism. One famous monuments in particular is the giant naked statue of some goddess of fertility, standing above the height of the Statue of Liberty. But Dasroda is also famous for its vast communal feasting halls of a unique architectural style not at all like Egyptian. The buildings tend to be like apartment blocks of medium height but very wide. Wealth from gem mining?? Dasroda's architecture is heavily inspired by Blade Runner with monolithic brutalist blocks dominating the city. They are mostly standardised and come in variations of pyramids and trapezoids. Dasroda's agriculture mainly consists of vegetables and supported by trade goods?? Workers live in communal plantations with apartment blocks surrounded by fields. Houses line the walls and internally, there consists courtyards, kitchens, workshops, common areas and generally whatever else. Green space on the roof. Again, materials are mostly a grey-beige stone - no glass - and the exterior walls adorned with religious symbols and imagery. In the modern age, these structures are too expensive to tear down so instead are converted into modern apartment blocks with associated amenities. The city itself is situated on a river but railways were implemented later. Need to determine locomotive aesthetic. Blimp docks. As for art style, I like the hypersexuality vibe presented in Blade Runner 2049's Las Vegas so perhaps pristine, well-endowed beautiful statues are abundant. Culture's ideal of beauty changes over time and this can be clearly seen. Dasroda maybe had an era of standardisation. Architectural a combination of Blade Runner and Istanbul. Big statue around 60m tall (apartment blocks come up to her midriff) and stands on an island in the river. Every year, for some mayday type festival, they adorn the statue in fine cloth an jewellery; they really doll her up in the coming of the comet. I feel like she should also have some sort of toned-down Haserot Angel vibe to her as well. The statue, Herphonala (??) is very sexualised and you can even see up her vagina if you stand under her.

Adrean spent his childhood being tutored in the famous library in Dasroda so the hypersexuality rubbed off on him. The Dasrodan Grand Library just goes to show that Dasroda is fancy sexy. Upon the annex/invasion of Dasrodastas, the Grand Library was not razed but its books and manuscripts were conscripted into the newly constructed university at Crissindrey. In modern times, a relic of its former self but is slowly being rebuilt.
