Farlbrek
An Ibrish village
This article is a stub. Please comment if you would like it to become a priority for expansion.
Farlbrek is the northernmost Ibrish settlement in the country of Ibatrene. It is located on the coast of the Black Sea, and is about five miles north of the edge of the Snaplige forest. For much of the year, the Black Sea is frozen over, so Farlbrek is often many miles from open water.
Farlbrek is a small village of around two hundred inhabitants. Most of the buildings are made of wood from the nearby forest, though some have stone foundations. The only two buildings that are made of a majority stone are the kyrk, where divine services are held, and the community hall.
During the summer months, when the sea is unfrozen, much of the fish for the rest of the year's food is collected to be smoked, dried, frozen, or otherwise preserved.
Given how cold their winters get, what strategies do they use to stay warm during the winter? I could imagine them all gathering together in the gyrhald to save fuel and share body heat. Might result in some interesting traditions and festivities.
Ooo, I love that idea. I definitely see the gyrhald being the primary dwelling in the winter months.
