..&.&.&.&. roads are physical representations of .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. the lines on maps that tell you where .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. you can travel. .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. those called roads are for cars. for .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. bikes they are called paths, for trains .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. they are called rails. .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. when traveling by foot, you can follow .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. all of these, or none. .&..&.&&.&

..&.&.&.&. .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. most roads are elevated, suspended .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. between three to a hundred (rare) .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. meters above ground. the closer you get .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. to a city, the more intertwined they .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. get. .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. in such areas, all crossings and .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. intersections are placed in tunnels, or .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. special tower-like structures called .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. outposts, which enfold the roads where .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. they interact. .&..&.&&.&

.&&.&.&.&. here and there you will find symbols in .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. white, on the asphalt. these are meant .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. to tell the drivers about what .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. manouvers they allowed to perform on .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. that particular stretch of road. .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. however, some creatures paint their own .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. illicit symbols encoding territorial .&.&&..&.&
.&&.&.&.&. claims, nearby resources, or other .&..&.&&.&
..&.&.&.&. unknown and mysterious things. .&.&&..&.&
