The Deer Snail Vassal State lay atop a vast swamp near the Abyss, perpetually shrouded in a fine drizzle and miasma. The most frequent event was the relentless storms that smothered everything in their wake.
Within the nation, there was one Central Hub, and it was buttressed by twelve subsidiary cities scattered across the swamp.
From above, it looked like a giant snail, sketched crudely amidst the vapor and the storms.
And at the heart of this "Giant Snail" was the Central Hub—the Ancient Snail City.
Due to its unique, humid environment, the architectural style favored the use of stone or water-resistant wood. However, the buildings were not set apart from the ground but were partially buried in it to ensure sufficient moisture.
