It is the only large town. The other towns are Nesham, Gemwezo, Ded'elcita, Selomleso, Betomtudo, Begwelo and Yalcelu, on the bay beside the Jak'i Islands.
 
Most Mifajene live in smaller villages. They lie along the coast and on the Teje and Jak'i Islands (among them Eliye, Deloshte, Yagoldo, Lede, Dezolo and K'obolo), around the edge of the Tahami Swamp (Tele, Besejen, Fehu and Rete), along the Ayellaye River (Tudzola and Neztudo), and in the eastern hills and beside Lake Layemshemwo (Cajak'i, Femcaja, Owete and Becesto). Nesfehu stands inside the swamp, south of the House of Tahami.
|Transportation=Roads link the main villages. One follows the Ayellaye from Beltesha through Betomtudo to Begwelo, and others run from Beltesha to Nesham and around the Tahami Swamp between Gemwezo, Ded'elcita and Selomleso. The Reservation is reached from the League by road and by sea from Ezinco.

|Culture=The Mifajene revere Tahami as their father and their god. Most are attuned to his [[Osia]] and practice the Path of Tahami, which they use to build their homes and villages in the swamps. Each year, in spring, during the wettest part of the year, they hold a festival in his honor.
