Travelogue – Decorum MulierAs you approach Decorum Mulier, it's clear to you that this secretive and alluring landscape is riddled with riches. The thing that makes this city so elegant is that everything with the city follows the same minimalist designs where the intricate details can only be seen up close, this applies to both the interiors and exteriors of the buildings and layout of Decorum Mulier. It's almost like everyone knows that it all costs a lot of money but the elegance lies in the fact that it doesn't need to boast this fact to prove itself. From the outside of Decorum Mulier you can see a grand wall structure surrounding and protecting the city, whilst acting as a deterrent against poverty and the lower class. The brickwork for the surrounding wall is simply brilliant, it has an ergonomic design that is built for its functionality rather than showmanship. Although the finest stones are used to build the wall they aren't sending out any sort of message other than this city is simply impenetrable. Access can be gained in one way and that is to prove your worth at the towering gates. The gates are made of the safest and most secure reinforced metals which might not be necessarily stunning to the eye but most certainly protect the "upper class" citizens from the 'vagabonds' and 'peasants' that litter the world on the outside.

Travelogue – Decorum Mulier Pt 2Once you finally reach the confronting gates of Decorum Mulier a guardian will approach; he is a tall thuggish man who's movements are somewhat sluggish. He is the population control of Decorum Mulier. It's down to him as to whether or not you fall into the right criteria. If you are successful, the gates will tardily swing open granting you access to the graceful city that lays beyond. A sudden boom of the gate slamming shut is the first greeting that is given when you are finally inside. The first noticeable thing about Decorum Mulier is the houses and the way they have been constructed in such a way that they almost seem to be looking down upon anyone that is not on the same level as them. The peculiar thing is that all houses are tall and elongated, almost as if they are reinforcing the fact that everyone in this beautiful city is wealthy and therefore all the same. The truly stunning thing about the houses is that each and every one of them emanate elegance and grace. They are not extravagant and flaunting of the superiority that they have, but instead they have been built with the finest wares but of the kind that are more particulate and intricate with its detail.

Travelogue – Decorum Mulier Pt 3• If you are so lucky to be given the chance to explore the exquisite innards of the houses. Within

each house there a lobby at the bottom, that each have a receptionist who moderates who is allowed in and who isn't. From this point there is a large elevator shaft that travels upwards until it reaches the top floor. This is where the owner lives, and it can certainly be seen by the elegant etchings on the front door, which show that a lot of craftsmanship has gone into perfecting it but not too much that it becomes too vulgar. As the door opens into the top floor room the pleasant aroma of perfume hits you and sweeps you off your feet luring you inside to see more. The sight that is before you once you're inside is that everything screams elegance. The upholstery is made from one hundred percent genuine black leather, the wardrobes, drawers and other wooden furniture is delicately crafted from ancient cured african Blackwood with indentations that have been intricately placed. The effect of the wood looks very bland and plain until you get closer then it's obvious that they have been created with the finest wood available, that has been extracted from the most beautiful African Blackwood trees from the surrounding forest. The floors and walls are not filled with obscure and widely over complicated patterns but instead are very minimalist in terms of colour palette and tone, the floors are made from solid white marble and the walls are a ombre like tone with minor silver inlays. The view from the sky bound room looks down upon the whole of Decorum Mulier, reinforcing the fact that these magnificent women look down upon all those that aren't like them.

Travelogue – Decorum Mulier Pt 4• When it comes to dining in Decorum Mulier everyone simply journeys down to the restaurant strip, it's

laden with exquisite patisseries and wineries to top of the range 5 star restaurants where every meal is served and prepared by professional chefs who only care for quality. No matter what food is desired It can be gathered and prepared. The only difference with the restaurant strip in comparison to the houses is that they are all more grounded. Despite this they do still have some elegance about them, there are no advertising signs needed as every citizen has dined in every restaurant once and they know exactly which one to go to for a specific food. Onto the residents of Decorum Mulier. The residents are mostly women although there are men, but they look up to the women like they are forever in awe of their graceful looks and personality. The men are still most definitely wealthy as they wouldn't be allowed to stay. The way men dress is in pressed suits that show subtle classyness. Whereas the women are tall, slender figures with long necks and flat bosoms, the clothing they wear is also very minimalist. Much like the buildings of Decorum Mulier the residents present themselves in a way that it is clearly known that everything they own cost mountains of money but instead chose to present it in the discreetest of ways. The overseer of Decorum Mulier is a high priestess like women who is every bit elegant as she is beautiful. The city adores her, she adores her residents, but being Unfathomably wealthy she still dresses much like the residents. She is generally in charge of everything within the city, but it is also believed that she is still capable of great power. The only real difference is that she lives a in a gargantuan building that towers over the rest of the city, her building of residence is made up of wonderful brickwork made from the rarest of marble and granite. She has a balcony outside her room so she can look down upon the sun casting it's morning Rays upon Decorum Mulier and the moon rising and glistening in the night.
