Tay

From D'ni - The Myst Wiki

Tay
Written by Gehn, later Catherine
First seen in Riven (game)
Inhabitated? - Yes
Journal- Riven (game)/Catherine's journal


Tay is an age originally written by Gehn during his attempts to escape his "prison" on Riven, but proved, much like his other ages, to be unstable. He cast it into the fire to burn, but it was salvaged by Catherine. The book had been spared enough from the fire that, using her incredible writing ability, Catherine was able to rewrite Tay as a stable age to house the Moiety safely from Gehn.

When visiting the age in Riven, you link to a cave from which you can see the main feature of the island - a small island holding a dead tree and a sphere that contains the city where everyone lives on Tay.

At the end of Riven, assuming that The Stranger successfully completes his duties, Catherine relocated the inhabitants of Riven to Tay to save them from the imminant collapse of the age.
