Overview

A corridor of stone pillars functions as a shortcut through the mystical framework of the World Tree, allowing an entire company to cover ground that would otherwise demand a long ride on horseback. The reborn Band of the Falcon adopts the passages as a strategic asset, and Griffith imagines them scattered across the whole continent to rush his forces wherever they are needed.

Function

Each passage is raised from ancient fallen pillars set back into their original arrangement. After the campaign against the jotnar in an eastern highway region, Sonia locates a site of such ruins and reports it to Griffith, who has a transformed Grunbeld stand the columns upright. Soldiers then advance in paired lines, each rider keeping the person ahead within sight so no one strays. For a brief moment they feel themselves racing along the limbs of the World Tree before stepping out beyond the walls of Falconia.

Notable Users

Griffith and Sonia take the head of the procession, since Sonia claims that among the reborn Band of the Falcon only the two of them can travel the branches without becoming lost. Griffith intends to build further corridors at other ancient ruins so the army can be moved swiftly for coming military operations.
