To wend is to go, to make your way somewhere — slowly, in no hurry, often not in a straight line. In practice you will nearly always meet it in one fixed phrase: 'wend one's way'. The crowd wended its way home; the river wends its way through the valley; we wended our way back to the hotel. Almost no one says 'I wended to the shop'. It is a literary, gently old-fashioned word, and writers choose it when they want an unhurried, wandering feeling — a walk that takes its time, a road that curves. Note also that the past tense of 'go' — 'went' — is really the old past tense of this very verb. Long ago 'go' and 'wend' got mixed together, 'go' borrowed 'went', and 'wend' was left with the new regular past 'wended'. So when you say 'I went home', you are using a piece of 'wend' without knowing it.
