What I want to know is did the squids use the chalk roads or did the squids become the chalk roads.

It is said that eons ago, a wise and benevolent squid elder named Ozymandias possessed the power to manipulate the very essence of chalk.

When the squid community faced a perilous migration across treacherous terrains, Ozymandias would emerge from the depths and lay down chalk roads, imbued with his magical ink, to guide his fellow squids safely to their destination. These chalk roads glowed with an ethereal blue light, illuminating the darkest depths of the ocean.

As time passed, the squids would harness the power of Ozymandias' magical ink to transform themselves temporarily into living chalk roads. By intertwining their arms and tentacles, they would create a network of living paths on the ocean floor, allowing other marine creatures to traverse great distances with ease.

It is said that if the squids are in great danger, the squid king can awaken the giant squid in the living chalk paths. This apocalyptic event is known as the bubbling.

Seems to me based on your username the squids didn't need roads at all
