| **Kzye** is nestled against the slope of [[:Sehto]]'s [[:Thorn|dormant volcano]] crater's side, mostly well-hidden in an almost martian landscape, surrounded at a bit of a distance by rolling hills of short, sun-bleached grasses. It's a town of friendly people that are sometimes too forthcoming to strangers. Aside from the permanent inhabitants numbering about a hundred, Kzye is rarely visited by anyone other than pokémon trainers. | **Kzye** is nestled against the slope of [[:Sehto]]'s [[:Thorn|dormant volcano]] crater's side, mostly well-hidden in an almost martian landscape, surrounded at a bit of a distance by rolling hills of short, sun-bleached grasses.

| | ===== Subculture ===== |
| | |
| | The Kzye City subculture shares much in common with that of [[place:Kethi City]], with an added shyness around strangers and a distinct drive to isolation. They're not superstitiously driven as [[place:Pyu Ivvi]] tend to, but they would nonetheless quote something haunting about people passing through, as if they were mere memories rather than people of flesh and blood. That's a statement of perception, however, rather than a statement of mythological 'fact'. |
| | |
| | As such, there's a certain timelessness to Kzye City, with change coming from outside usually simply rolling off the community, which has long since found its values and isn't about to budge from them in a hurry. One of the values, fortunately, is a strong hospitality toward strangers, though many Kzye inhabitants won't exactly know //what// to do with newcomers, and they might be passed around like a hot potato somewhat cluelessly (but very much not maliciously) in embarrassment for a while, until they stick with someone who knows how to treat a guest from //experience// rather than just raw theory. But they're all quite eager to please, really. To outsiders, it's borderline uncanny. |
| | |
| | Despite their outward skittishness, the Kzye people are not easily fundamentally fazed. It's quite possibly Kzye is the only city that accepts Keith fully knowing the flavour of insanity he indulges in - he damages no one and the only murders that happen in Kzye are brought to //justice// by him rather than occurring by his hand, so he's accepted as a highly eccentric leader who just so happens to inspire caution in his underlings. They would, unflinchingly, report him as simply being a prankster, and might have trouble comprehending another's disbelief in the veracity of that statement; they'd not understand it really is just a euphemism. |
| | |
| | The Kzye people are not particularly loyal to each other. They would certainly protest if the integrity of their friends were tarnished, but they are too pensive as that it would not give them food for thought. The mere fact a stranger has thought ill of another is cause for them to question their own experience with them, although such doubt only lasts if evidence is forthcoming. Again, Keith's presence doesn't much help - he's clearly //very strange// and so claims that might easily be outrageous when pertaining to other people may have at least some plausibility with him. |
| | |
| | The people of the settlement are not known to be particularly good at defending themselves, be it verbally or physically, though there are certainly exceptions. As such, they tend to be quite pokémon-dependant, though those truly proficient at commanding the creatures are few and far between, owing to the pacifist attitudes of most of the people living here. |
| | |
| | (As such, it really is quite good that someone like Keith can keep an eye on them. And he does.) |

| Keith Sirius is standing just outside the tunnel leading into the confines of the interior of the mountain. Warm air radiates out from the mouth of the tunnel. Someone else is stood beside Keith, smoking a cigarette - they seem to be involved in a jovial conversation, with Keith's arms crossed before his chest, right shoulder nuzzling the rocky wall beside him, tone joking, light-hearted. | Keith Sirius is standing just outside the tunnel leading into the confines of the interior of the mountain.
