Potion's Passage
In the heart of the Runiverse, a marvel of engineering and magic takes shape – a canal. This canal is not just any waterway. It's an economic artery, a lifeline for commerce that connects two of the most important economic centers of the Runiverse: Red Wizard Capital and Alessar's Keep. Potion's Passage, as it is known, was constructed by the industrial juggernaut Big Potion Inc.
The canal provides an essential route for trade vessels, enabling them to bypass the treacherous waters of the open sea and the Brine. By creating a more predictable and controlled path, the Potion's Passage ensures the steady flow of goods and wealth between the two bustling hubs.

Strategically located halfway along the canal is an inland harbour. This crucial waypoint serves as a bustling hub for the transfer of goods, livestock, and other wares from ships to wagon trains and vice versa. This hub, though currently unnamed, is a hive of activity day and night, facilitating the constant movement of trade throughout the Runiverse.
Ley Lines & Energy Nexus
But the harbour is not only significant for its economic role. It is also a nexus of potent magical energy. Positioned at the epicenter between notable points such as Calista's Citadel in the southwest, Red Wizard Capital in the northwest, Kobold Crossing in the northeast, and Alessar's Keep in the southeast, it rests on powerful ley lines that flow through the waters of the canal. These ley lines converge at the harbour, making it a hotspot for magical activity and a potential place of interest for wizards and scholars across the Runiverse.
Potion's Passage is more than an achievement of engineering. It's a testament to the coexistence of magic and technology in the Runiverse, a symbol of economic resilience, and a beacon of magical intrigue. Its creation marks a significant point in the history of the Runiverse, emphasizing the vital role that commerce, innovation, and magic play in shaping this world.
