Message: <blockquote data-quote="Stormonu" data-source="post: 9795821" data-attributes="member: 52734">On the bridge to Circle Isle, I was thinking there would be a need to move large objects/goods from Lambeth over to Cynelsa in some manner, as I had imagined that the Great Road was the main commerce line into the city.   Having the bridge to Circle Isle does create a buffer to Lambeth directly - in a way I can see the imagery of a prideful Cynelsa noble staring east, a petulant Lambeth staring west and a humble Priest from Circle Isle passing notes between the two, because the C-L won't talk to one another. "Burning Lambeth bridges" could be a phrase like our own "burning bridges behind you" sentiment.Of course, with the Skybound it could be that large objects are moved by flying elephants instead of common wagons, taking Lambeth out of the picture for trading goods.  Also makes the phrase "When Elephants Fly/The Elephants Have Flown" mean that something important/big is up - usually involving some change coming from Cynelsa.As a side note, this could make the derogatory curse in Lambeth (towards Cynelsa) be "When Pigs Fly" <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> .As I'm also thinking about it, there is probably a ferry or flight that Cynelsa gentry use to pass back and forth with Hackwark - maybe it involves that little lake on the border between Cynelsa and Waveswith?</blockquote>
