Horses are used for longer overland travel. The Celestial Temple and the knight garrison have stables available for a fee. The Temple also rents horses to travelers.

People mostly walk around town, with donkeys and porters usually being for loads.

And, of course, ships of all sizes.

𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑰𝑵𝑺!!

Ahem… sorry, that just slipped out.

A train system operates in a ring, passing through all the Eden domes.

They also have cars and busses, and beneath the train lines there’s a freeway that connects the domes as well.

One of the benefits of the planet being unified under a single entity is that city design and mass transit can be standardised to a fairly high degree.

Sectors 490 and 491 are typical of a modern Tenalus sector, boasting excellent public transport and highly walkable urban spaces.

Tzin City has a pretty solid trolley network. Like most major commercial infrastructure, it's ran by Camazotz.

He plans to build a railway to the Ninth Underworld eventually, but the expense in marrow will be astronomical.

Xolotl's dogs run the ferry.

#Septopolis 2026! 9/17 Transport takes a different tone when typical riding animals are just as intelligent and capable of speech as those riding them. Transport is thus treated two ways—either as informal service between friends and family, and as a career providing pay, food, and at times shelter.

Astara has a variety of options for transportation. Sea gliders are a popular one. These fish can be outfitted for personal transport. And mer can also catch a ride from dolphins and whales. The surface ring has docking for sailing ships to allow for trade.

#Septopolis There are two forms of transportation to and from Amperion: rail; or boat. The city is a terminus for the train - all things arrive, but seldom few leave.

The river above Amperion is narrow and fast - small boats send folks downstream with the current. #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

The transportation is just like in most civilizations in the 80s, with buses and cars being the main ones. There are also trains that can be used to travel around the gates that bring them around the portions of the kingdoms, like London to the Snow Kingdom.

Mass transport is the entire reason for the existence of the City of Gates!

The teleportation network connects most parts of the world and is freely available to anyone. (Assuming you worship the gods, as is their due)

Niona and her temples do not charge for this service. 🧵

#Septopolis 17:

Most Folk don't own cars, so West Harewood was built with walkability in mind. Still, a few human-sized cars were turned into free "shuttle buses". There is also a growing market for Folk-sized vehicles, usually custom-built; and Rats have a reputation for being reckless drivers.

#Septopolis #CourtroomGhost

Actually getting to this for a change!

The World Court started out as a pirate base in the tunnels and caves underground. Above-ground the city was planned, and then there was major conflict between the pirates and the city builders (who I haven't named yet).

Yesterday I knew that beside the usual local holidays (Lunar New Year, Midsummer, New Year's), there would be an annual event tied to the Fall, as something that traumatized (or liberated, if you ask the Commissars) the entire world.

Today I present you the Three Weeks of Rebirth. 🧵

Day 17 of #Septopolis!

This is a simple question, and relates to my Day 11 answer regarding technology.

Land of Gold is set in a time with no mechanised industrialisation. So, for a peasant region in which Moondale is, we're talking about cartwheels and wagons pulled by horses and livestock.

In the Hidden Oasis, metropolitan mass transit is commonplace. There is extremely little in the way of any personal vehicles that are in use within the city. When you see someone using one the individual or group is oft outbound. 🧵

17) Transport

Since Platypus Station is very large (120 km in diamater) rapid mass transit is a necessity.

A mag-lev bullet train runs along the circumference, carrying folks who need to travel long distances. This train also interfaces with the space port of the station.

#Septopolis 17!
A city built on railroads and ships should have a pretty fabulous transportation system, yes? Tell that to Capitalism! Fireridge HAD all that; now it doesn't. Proximity to the Interstate and an inundation of car dealerships gradually killed rail and bus services.

@thepoetjean.bsky.socialSep 17, 2026, 4:52 PM

A17. There is a train that runs thru Ancus into greater Sesina. Sesina is esp large so they have airships for long-haul shipping as well as pleasure travel (like a cross between airplanes and maritime). Public transport is funded by the govt. Ppl can also purchase their own airships #Septopolis

@thepoetjean.bsky.socialSep 17, 2026, 4:31 PM

A16. As a result of the mountainous region of the town being the structured to be an outpost, most of the homes + businesses were retro-fitted around the airship base and fuel mine nearby. That region has since become kinda of a company town w/ the z-mine the center of the economy (3/?) #Septopolis

@thepoetjean.bsky.socialSep 17, 2026, 4:27 PM

A16. Ancus became a town kinda by accident. The Hepici civil war let to many fleeing for either another continent or into the Sesina Empire under protection of the Emperor in exchange for two of their mountains to be annexed into the Empire. (2/?) #Septopolis

@thepoetjean.bsky.socialSep 17, 2026, 4:25 PM

A16. Ancus a small town divided into two major sections: The mountainous region and the valley region. Most of the poorer folks live in the mountainous region. There's a train system that connects to the end of the mountains, the Valley region, and out into greater Sesina (1/?) #Septopolis
