History

After construction of Purgatory came to an end, expeditions were led to the world's border in search of a place to settle Cascadia. After the initial surveys were completed, a highway was built between the locations to help ferry supplies and people for the new frontier settlement. The colloquially dubbed "Lonesome Road" was instrumental to the early pioneers, but was still a solemn journey through the cold empty wastes of The End. The highway itself is suspended by the use of ultra-dense Endstone-based materials. The anti-gravity nature of this compound has kept the distant islands floating above the void, and was necessary in order to traverse the long gaps efficiently. Over time, other locations have populated near and around the highway leaving it's reputation as a isolationist journey in days past. The construction of the Enderwheel and it's Axial Roads have overtaken the need for this aging highway, but it still serves a direct purpose of connecting the two cities of Purgatory and Cascadia. It also has a more sturdy, if rugged, design.
