Kolesta

Demographics

The people of Kolesta are more traditional than most of the rest of Vellikka. Being on the edge of the world, and far from other settlements, it takes longer for new ideas and stories to reach them, not helped by the fact they shun anything which threatens their way of life. They are of the "if it's not broken, don't try to fix it" mentality, without checking to see if something is broken.   The people of Kolesta are all Vellich.

Government

The village is run by the Village Ruler, who has chosen the path of the Ruler from a young age and trained to be in that position.   The Village Ruler in most settlements leans on the council of others, like the Storykeeper and the Storyteller, but in Kolesta the Rulers are absolute. Instead they use the Storytellers act as mouthpieces.

Districts

The village isn't large enough for districts, but there are three paths which branch out from the green in the centre. One holds all of the residences, small cottages and some larger, as well as the Bearer home. The second is focused on food, food preparation and includes the communal buildings for eating. The third is home to the Village Ruler's office, storage and industry.
