Kajusuzûn Chimes

Wind chimes feature priminently in the city of Kajusuzû, so much so that nearly half the city is named the "Ringing Quarter" because of the musical notes coming from every window. The Kajuzurie see chime-making as an art and a representation of themselves as those who were guided to beauty by the wind.

The cousin the wind chime, the light chime does not usually create noise but is instead meant to filter and capture light to produce something beautiful in a similar way. Light chimes are usually more elegent and finely crafted and are favored by higher society individuals who prefer the quiet visual beauty.
