-The Road province gets its name from a small but important shard that was created when a [[shards#shadow_shard|Shadow Shard]] collided with a [[shards|Material Shard]] to create a unique shard system. Because gravity is relative in the Aether, these two shards actually appear to be two sides of the same thirty-six mile wide body floating in the void. Both sides are connected by a cobblestone road that defies all the logic of gravity to run down one side and up the other connecting one shard to the other, which gives the body its name. +This province gets its name from a small but important shard that was created when a [[shards#shadow_shard|Shadow Shard]] collided with a [[shards|Material Shard]] to create a unique shard system.

-On the other side of this shard, The Road is connected with a Material Shard that is frozen by the cold brilliance of a water shard called Meridian. Three villages of antagonistic barbarian clans live here, trading occasionally with the city on the far side of the shard. They fish in the monster-infested Great Alxfear Lake and tell ghost stories about the long-abandoned caves hidden in the cavities between the mighty peaks covered in snow. In one such cave complex, a Voidspan Gate has been discovered connecting The Road to [[Welmet]]. This allows the entire shard to sell raw materials and goods in a larger market, providing a measure of economic activity. +On the other side of this shard, The Road is connected with a Material Shard named [[Nixheim]] that is frozen by the cold brilliance of a water shard called Meridian.
