Chenstokhova is built on relatively flat terrain. It is a Polish-style village with eighteen houses and a chapel in the center. There are no distinctive features in the village.
The Village Elder can be found standing in front of a straw-roofed house with smoke coming out of the chimney, to the left of the chapel if looking from the player's entrance.
If sent here during a Hunt Down Fugitive quest, the Nervous Man can be found on the extreme opposite of the village, standing in front of a straw-roofed house.
Trivia[]
- The name of this place is actually written Częstochowa in Polish. The game's spelling Chenstokhova is actually a Latinization of the Russian name Ченстохова, which transcribes the nasal vowel ę using en, since nasal vowels have disappeared in most major modern Slavic languages and Polish is the only one to retain them. The Proto-Slavic phoneme *ę would naturally evolve into Russian as я ja or а a. As an example, compare Proto-Slavic *čęstъ "frequent" which evolved into Polish częsty and Russian частый častyj.
