....&&&&&. 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. &&&...&.&.
