Exploration, travel and flying
Quick answer
NC’s Global contents and Steam store explicitly advertise flight, including aerial combat, alongside rideable pet mounts. Flight exists as a publisher-announced system; unlocks, speed, altitude, combat restrictions and travel costs remain unconfirmed. Blazing Sun Wings are a founder appearance item with no added stats.
