Event
The Husuni Kubwa
Hasan originally commissioned a Country Adjective residence at the heart of Target Location, intended to be the most impressive palace. However, misfortunes, the redirection of funds, and personal illness all sought to stall and outright end the project. Despite these troubles, our architects have presented an updated plan for the palace, bolstered with warehouses and chambers especially made for merchant exchanges, accompanied by an illustrious throne room. Their only obstacle, right now, is coin.
