Gizekhtet, also known as Quietude,[1] was a city in the divine realm of the same name.[1][2][3]
Description[]
The buildings of Gizekhtet were constructed primarily from brick and white stucco.[2] The River Isis ran through its center,[1][2][3] providing cool clear water to its inhabitants.[2] Within the city limits, this water acted as holy water.[2]
Government[]
Gizekhtet had a matriarchal government,[3][4] though all were judged equally under its law and the sexes lived without enmity.[4] The goddess Isis lived in and watched over the city.[1][2] Under her purview, the city was ruled by Lamia Nightblossom,[3][4] a tiefling wizardess whose character was marked by compassion, fairness, and justice.[4] Isis trusted her implicitly with rulership of Gizekhtet whenever she was away.[4]
Inhabitants[]
This city was primarily inhabited by the petitioners of Isis,[1][2][3] many of which came from the nation of Mulhorand, whom lived lives of balance and moderation in all matters.[1] The people lived in true equality with one another, never lacking or having an overabundance of anything essential.[3] Though there were still those who could comparatively be considered somewhat "poor" or "wealthy," as well as craftsfolk and workers.[4]
