Tungul

Tungul is located on the south side of the Setesh River in the eastern part of Qesh. The palace of the qore is here, and much of his clan tends to stay in the northern part of the country either north or south of the Setesh. The city is old and made primarily of stone quarried from the Kufa Mountains and floated downriver on barges. Carvings and sculptures are gilded or inlaid with colorful mosaics, but most of these are many years old. Recent generations of qores have put less emphasis on the palace and more emphasis on their tombs. Royalty in Qesh are buried in tombs marked with pyramids; the bases are much smaller than those in the Khemitian style but the pyramids are nearly as high, which results in a tall, slender appearance.
