Arctrain
The Arctrain is a marvel of magical engineering, running on a system of enchanted pylons that create a track of magical energy that the train runs on. The track runs across the vast and treacherous expanse of the Span, offering a safe and swift passage for those who can afford it. The train itself is a sleek and modern miracle, with luxurious carriages outfitted with plush seating, elegant dining cars, and private compartments for the most discerning of passengers. The Railroad has become a symbol of status and prestige, with many of the upper class favoring it as their preferred method of travel. Despite its many comforts, however, the Railroad is not without its dangers, with many dangers lurking in the untamed wilderness of the Span that threaten the safety of its passengers.
