Travel

There are various mundane and magical ways of getting around in the world of Warhammer aside from just walking:

You can purchase a mount that lets you move at a significantly increased speed
You can find a flight master and pay a small fee to fly to any other location that also has a flight master. This is the most common way of moving between zones.
Vendors in the guild tavern in capital cities sell guild recall scrolls that can be used to return to the guild hall at any time.
Every character starts with a Book of Binding that can be used to return their last designated rally point.
You can walk through a portal to be teleported to a neighboring zone pair.
