Great caravan
The great caravan is a trading caravan consisting of a huge number of carts all attached by hooks, all pulled by what seems to be invisible incorporeal horses (the invisible beings have reigns and saddles implying the shape of a horse, but the body is invisible so it is unknown whether the caravan is pulled by horses or something more sinister). The caravan is owned and run by Rycard Moranzo, who charges people to either rent out a preexisting cart or attach a new cart as they travel all across Egapesh. Rycard's cart is at the very front of the caravan, has a deep purple cover, and is secretly a ginormous pocket dimension containing a Rycard's palace. Flanking the caravan, are many highly trained guards all loyal to Rycard, all equipped with well-forged weapon and armor, along with a selectively-bred warhorse which they use to keep up with the caravan and protect it from bandits. With all of these defenses, all bandits know it's a death sentence to even try and rob the caravan.
Structure
The organization of the caravan is loose. If you pay, you're a part of the caravan. If you don't pay, you aren't. It doesn't matter what members of the caravan do, as long as it is confined to their cart(s). The only one with more power than everyone else is Rycard Moranzo, and his power is unchallenged and unquestioned.
Culture
As the caravan travels all around Egapesh, it picks up many different peoples of many different cultures.
Public Agenda
The agenda of the caravan, in particular of Rycard Moranzo, has always been mysterious. The caravan travels across Egapesh, safely transporting merchants across the lands for a small price, though nobody exactly knows the end goal if there is one.
