Editing Transit Relays

<blockquote>[[File:Transitrelay ambience.png|thumb|A Singh-Jenkins relay]]''"A stone edifice, scintillant with sigils, is encased in a contrivance of steel and brass.

As of 1905, there are relays linking the Reach to [[Albion]] (from [[Port Prosper]]<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.gamepedia.com/Ask_about_the_Albion_Transit_Relay|Ask about the Albion Transit Relay|Sunless Skies|}}''"The Albion Transit Relay lies in a cul-de-sac close to the Port Prosper dock."''</ref> to [[Brabazon Workworld]]<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.fandom.com/wiki/The_Brabazon_Workworld|The Brabazon Workworld|Sunless Skies|}} ''"The Albion-Reach Transit Relay is located very near to this port."''</ref>), [[Eleutheria]] (from the vicinity of [[Hybras]] to [[Eagle's Empyrean]]<ref name="london">{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.gamepedia.com/London%27s_Enclave|Ask about the Transit Relay to the Reach|Sunless Skies|}}''"We really should put a sign up.

In accordance with the treaty."''</ref>), and the [[Blue Kingdom]] (from the vicinity of [[New Winchester]] to [[Sky Barnet]]). The [[Empyreal]] control the Eleutheria relay,<ref name="london" /> and the Blue Kingdom controls their own relay.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.fandom.com/wiki/Transit_Relay#The_Blue_Kingdom's_Transit_Relay_to_the_Reach|The Blue Kingdom's Transit Relay to the Reach|Sunless Skies|}} ''"The Kingdom's only transit relay was built by London's embassy, then yielded to the local authorities."''</ref> There is a second relay between the Reach and Eleutheria, located near [[Achlys]], which is broken.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.fandom.com/wiki/Transit_Relay#A_Broken_Transit_Relay|Transit Relay#A Broken Transit Relay|Sunless Skies|}} ''"This stone edifice has the same contrivance of steel and brass as the others, but the metal is tarnished.

It would be fair to call transit relays wyrmholes. They follow the paths of the [[Burrower Below]],<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.fandom.com/wiki/The_Surveyor%27s_Proposal|Press her for more information|Sunless Skies|}} ''"She leans forward and lowers her voice. "Old paths cross the sky, worn by the passage of something ancient and vast. By building transit relays at either end of these paths, we can access them, and use them to travel to far corners of the sky. I believe I've located another such road, one that links Albion directly to Eleutheria. I want to build a new relay."''</ref> and using them frequently carries a risk of drawing her ire.<ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.gamepedia.com/Transit_Relay|Transit Relay|Sunless Skies|}}''Rare event (20%): +10 x Attention: the Burrower Below''</ref><ref>{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.gamepedia.com/Attention:_the_Burrower_Below#TransitA|Attention: the Burrower Below|Sunless Skies|}}''"The passage is less pleasant than you had hoped.
