“Within a heartbeat, Alezarv was there, crossing a distance that would have taken more than four months to travel by foot.”
—Another folktale, this one recorded in Among the Darkeyed, by Calinam. Page 102. Stories of instantaneous travel and the Oathgates pervade these tales.[1]
The Oathgates were mysterious structures that allowed people to teleport instantaneously from place to place. These fabrials manipulate the Surge of Transportation. There are hints that the Oathgates were responsible for the near-instantaneous travel possible during the Heraldic Epochs and were one of the only ways to reach Urithiru. They could only be activated by living Shardblades, as wielded by the Knights Radiant.[2] Transportation of more than one person through the gates required use of more Stormlight for the ten gemstone lanterns within.[3]
