@yneternum ah you mean the two starting towns, I see!
I don't know if it's intentional that they are inland and not on the coast.
It might be useful if they were coastal now that you mention it, so you could already have a fast travel between north and south, of course always at a cost and even if player drive cities are not developed yet.
But now that I say it out loud (or write it down, in this case), maybe it's intentional that you cannot fast move in the initial phase of the game, and maybe it's intentional that fast travel via harbor has to be earned.
