To enter the capital without getting involved with the war happening on their left and right side, one had to go through a Golden Road leading straight to the city gate.
There were 8 such roads coming from 8 directions, and the one Ainsley's group encountered was the one from the west.
Without going through the Golden Road protected by numerous barriers set up by expert abilities users, anyone coming to the capital through the land would get involved in the war between monsters and humans.
That's why a lot of visitors would obediently use the road that could only host two carriages at most. One was for those heading to the town, and the other area was for those leaving the town.
The road wasn't wide, but the visitors were numerous. As such, one had to wait in line if they're not that influential.
Of course, those stronger visitors with an influential background could skip the row, and others wouldn't dare to offend them.
