Jolakefu
Background
Jolakefu is the city on Monyus.
Dominated by waterwheels, aqueducts, smoke-spewing columns and the combined smell of saltwater and electrical burns, it's any monoduga tinkerer's dream.

Geography
Two main geographic factors account for the expansion and continued success of the city.
It sits on the northern coast in a well protected bay. As sea travel has become more prevalent, this bay's access to the entire rest of the world has seen a seafaring subculture start to develop to rival almost Yenagun's rich history.
Monyus is, from the northern arid plains and deserts to the southern tundras, a dry continent. Jolekefu, however, sits in a tropical microclimate. It has a distinct wet and dry season, and the wet season in particular is when the city comes to life.
Dry Season
During the dry season, Jolekefu seems sedated. Trade in the harbour is highger with the calmer seas, but the city itself is quiet. Jolakefu keeps ticking over, with people mostly staying indoors to research, or travelling across the continent to visit frends and family.
Wet Season
When the rain starts, it doesn't stop for half a year. The waterwheels dominating the skyline start turning, aqueducts almost overflow, and the countless water-powered prototypes and experiments come alive.
