SKELLIGE<br />
Skellige houses are built to withstand the isles’<br />
harsh climate. Large families (often with more<br />
than a dozen members) dwell in rectangular huts<br />
that can be up to several dozen yards long. Turf<br />
or shingles cover their roofs, providing effective<br />
insulation against the cold of autumn and winter.<br />
Steep roofs reinforced with thick support beams<br />
protect the buildings from piles of snow that<br />
would crush structures with gentler roofs or less<br />
robust construction.<br />
<strong>The</strong> hearth is a core element of each house’s main<br />
chamber, the focal point around which daily life<br />
ebbs and flows. Walls are often decorated with<br />
hunting trophies, hand-woven tapestries, and<br />
weapons of all kinds.
