Eventually the former slaves and mercenaries of Fidelium got their act together and began thinking about more long term dwellings. Instead of merely cludging whatever they could together to make rough shanties , they began making sturdier, roomier, more sheltering and comfortable by putting more time and planning into their new homes. The result of which were accommodations such as this one. While old crates were still used they were done with more planning and forethought along with dressed timbers gathered locally. The roof thatched with local grass. The base was made of stone with flat stones lining the city. Said stones, along with an iron plate and pipe were also used to make a functional stove. Cooking was done outside as the region was warm year round and for fire hazard purposes. These dwellings emerged in the initial settlement and around it as farmhouses.
