Man, why would we cater the worldbuilding around some mechanical stuff? Putting instant teleports would ruin Korvara. Caravans would improve the world's feel and immersion, while mage guilds would be weird as hell and remove immersion while also massively reducing the chance of encountering people outside of cities. It would be especially jarring if nations can't even control it. The crystal teleport is already dubious in-character because there's no way in hell every person on korvara can use those. Logically speaking, there's no reason an army couldn't pass through crystals, so we have to just pretend it doesn't exist. Let's not water down korvara even more with teleports... That defeats the whole point of korvara.

To play devil's advocate here; all of us value our time and when a majority of players are spending several minutes walking with no RP or engaging mechanics inbetween, it's time wasted. Now repeat this process over and over when you're searching for RP and it builds up overtime. If wasting time is the point of Korvara, I would personally prefer to go against it.

Despite that being said, I'm in full support of the caravan idea but I also can't deny that I'd prefer some means of teleporting that was more common than the one we have; maybe not on the level of mage's guilds from G6, but there surely could be an upgrade to the pre-existing crystal teleport we have. IE: 8 hours to 4 hours.
