The '''Oathgates''' are mysterious structures that allowed people to teleport instantaneously from place to place.

▲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]].{{book ref|wor|86}} Transportation of more than one person through the gates required use of more Stormlight for the ten gemstone lanterns within.{{book ref|wor|87}}
The only currently known oathgates are in the Shattered Plains and in Urithiru.
