Travel is needed for stories to happen in different places and these guidelines help determine how long it takes to get there.

One can always use a Hermes Portal or a Faerie Trod to get somewhere fast but only if it is integral to the story.

Assumption: 1 League is 4k, it takes about an hour to walk 1 league on good roads, and people normally only walk for 7 hours a day.
