If players select Oranos as their Pantheon, they'll have access to the Sky Passage building as soon as the game starts. However, they'll first have to collect some Favor to be able to build it.

How Sky Passages Work

Sky Passages work just like fast travel portals, and they can be quite useful when players want to quickly get a unit to far-away friendly territory. Not only are these buildings useful but they can also be placed strategically to help the player attack an enemy from behind or have some units attack an enemy base and then quickly retreat back home.

To use a Sky Passage in Age of Mythology, gamers have to select the desired units and then select the Sky Passage so they'll walk into it. Then, the units will be in an unreachable limbo. To get units to teleport and return to the map, the player has to interact with another Sky Passage to assign it as the exit point.
