River of Ten Thousand Steps was a Multi Element spell which used the Air and Void elements to hurry several individuals from one point to another in less time than they would use traveling overland or even using the Air spell Walking the Way. In the destination point a shugenja should act as a focus. It was developed by the Master of Void Shiba Ningen in concert with his assistant Agasha Yuhiko. The toll exacted by the spell to the performers was great.
