Competition: House Galeres: Ekkar and Ubaba - Venue

Finished
House Galeres: Ekkar and Ubaba - Venue

Overview: Since the Galerian forces have returned to Eldar, there has been a campaign to re-establish the House on the planet permanently. This has caused some part of a rift between the Keadean and Sardinians who view House Galeres as a problematic, possibly authoritarian group. Galeres has had four members of each population living within the House during the war against The Children of Mortis and the rebuilding of Fort Blindshot after the destruction of the war. These members are of noble blood and high-ranking citizenship which are believed by Galerian leadership to have the most pull to assist in negotiations between the Keadeans and Sardinians. As part of the negotiations, Galeres has set aside land to establish the new city, Ekkar, and the Ubaba Intergalactic Spaceport.

Prompt: In this competition, you are tasked to create a new landmark that is very important to either the Galerian people, Keadeans, and/or Sardinians. You can include a visual representation

Fhem Jar Saltmarsh

Spanning four kilometers along the west coast of the estuary river that runs alongside Ekkar is the Fhem Jar Saltmarshes. This vast land of marsh and tidal pools is filled with wetland and coastal Eldar wildlife, avians, reptilians, and various mammalian like creatures. As diverse as the fauna, the floral specimens are so as well, some even said to provide medicinal properties long used in herbal praactices. The earth glistens with sediments of mineral and metal deposits.

Simple hutts are strewn across the marsh, made by folks attracted to the city with curiosity but don’t have the socioeconomic means or are wary on living fully within the walls.These people carve out a living from the marshes, often bringing fresh fish to market. Some of these individuals had been drawn here for the floral herbs or the rumored precious metals and minerals present here. Other individuals with seedier backgrounds are rumored to have taken to the huts.
