why can't you just fly up to the top of heaven on high

in a world with airships and amaros, why is the WoL climbing the floors of heaven on high one by one? if he wants to visit the shrine why not just fly up there? why do people lack so much common sense!!

Good question, but here a reasonable answer - gettinggon top of the tower from the outside might be impossible since it could be surrounded by a magical barrier that prevents entering or causes any flight mechanism to cease working.

Think about Azys Lla - without the key, we had to brute force ourselves in, with help from major plot characters.

that makes sense since both are allagan... damn allagans and their hatred for flying.

because you hit the top of the map 4head

Serious answer: Even in real life, most flying vehicles have an altitude ceiling, beyond which they function poorly or not at all. HoH is tall enough that there may simply be no vehicle in the setting that can fly that high.

Of course, even if you couldn't fly to the top, what's to stop you from flying partway up and skip a bunch of floors? That's a tougher question, but a possible answer might be that we CAN, but there's no reasonable way to enter the structure up there. No doors or windows fragile enough to break, and we already know the tower must be made of VERY sturdy materials simply to exist at all.

At floors 51 to 80 there are rooms where you can see the outside cos it's broken. And at floors 81 to 99 there are balconies
