I *think* that was meant to be a God Learner achievement, not typical of Heortland.

FWIW, I'd like Heortland architecture to look kinda French Fairytale Mediaeval: all those round turrets and pointy roofs, like a less kitsch version of Sleeping Beauty's Castle. Stick'em on top of craggy rocks, too, for extra fun.

(Ever been to Carcassonne? David Hall used the tour guidebook as his version of Durengard, IIRC)
