Many aetheryte camps were destroyed during the Calamity, which necessitated their reconstruction. However, this came at great expense, and so teleportation fees must be collected to repay the as yet unpaid debt.

However, the gil doesn’t just magically disappear from your purse! Though it's not shown in the game, it's collected by the guards keeping watch of the aetherytes.

On a side note, guards posted by each city-state's aetheryte can tell you about aetherytes and teleportation magic. If you're interested, see what they have to say!
I don't believe this ballony.

They're as bad as the US IRL, working on credit are they?? I'm pretty sure they could've thought of something else,lol!
Nobody works for free for they time they were reconstructing. I would rather go back to paying in anima.
