The Thousand-Mile Cloud is a Forged construct of solidified madra, an emerald-green floating platform that serves as one of the most common forms of aerial travel in Cradle. It first appears early in Lindon's journey as a sign of the wider, more advanced world beyond Sacred Valley. In the Blaze Empire it becomes the signature mount of the Skysworn, whose agents streak across the sky leaving green trails as they police the empire. By Underlord it is associated with Cassias Arelius of the Akura clan, and it stands as a modest, practical vehicle beside grander conveyances like the imperial cloudship and the Akura carriage cloud.
