Myst V: End of Ages Hints

How do I get back down out of this area?

  • 1 of 4: There's a control system similar to the one that brought you up here.
  • 2 of 4: Next to one of the two red buttons that's immediately adjacent to the hole is another canister and pressure plate.
  • 3 of 4: Only this time, since you're trying to go down and not up, it's easy enough to do this yourself.
  • 4 of 4: Raise the canister, step on the plate, and then go back to the hole -- the floor should now be filled in.  You can step on it and fall back down with it to the previous section.  To get back up, though, you're going to the whole sequence with the Bahro and the slate again, just like you did to get up here the first time.
