{{quote|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.{{epigraph ref|
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 [[Oathgate]]s 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 [[Shardblade]]s, as wielded by the [[Knights Radiant]].{{ref|b|wor|c|86}} Transportation of more than one person through the gates required use of more Stormlight for the ten gemstone lanterns within.{{ref|b|wor|c|87}}
