Travelling through the Air
| A player-created Guide is available for this content: Firmament (Guide) |
| Spoiler warning! This page contains details about Fallen London Actions. |
The aerial reaches of the Neath may have weaker winds than Surface skies – but what they lack in force they make up in malice.
[…]Description summary:
The second paragraph varies depending on which Roof region you are traveling from.
| Roof Region | Description |
|---|---|
| The Spirelands | The spirelands close to London are as familiar as the Roof gets – still a place of danger and strangeness. Rogue gusts of wind blow […] Is that glint […] in the distance a candle? A false-star? A telescope, staring […] from one of the citadels of the Starved Men? |
| The Miser-Roads | The constellations of the false-stars are closer than you've ever seen them – peligin and cyan, azure and apocyan, glim-glinting in the darkness, moving in herds through the inverted ravines of the roof. |
| Zenith | Castles on the ceiling! Spires and stones, some ruins, some not. You near the parts of the Roof where gravity itself is treacherous. |
