Leading out from Glisterhelm to the farthest reaches of the Kingdom, The King's Trail is the main transport route for trade and travel within Xerdani. It begins in the heart of the capitol and makes its way through The Gleaming Realm, across the Shimmering Fields, through Skrillbend and over the Skrill, out into the Western lands that wrap around Bone Bottom, and arrives finally at Eventide. In fact, the town's name comes from the King's Trail. It is said that if you start your journey from Glisterhelm along the King's Trail, you will arrive at the Eastgate just as the sun sets behind its watchtowers. Weary travellers who spend all day travelling will, in fact, arrive at Eventide... at eventide! Without the King's Trail, however, the trip would take many days on end. Travel within the Kingdom of Xerdani, therefore, is almost always faster than traveling the same distance in the West.
