Myst V: End of Ages Hints
How do I get my slate here?
1 of 5: You had to leave it on the bottom level of the colored-button maze to get into the maze itself.
2 of 5: Which means the Bahro probably took it after it finished singing -- the same as the Bahro always have if you leave a slate unattended.
3 of 5: Fortunately, there's a pedestal just after you finish the maze, on the other side of the door.
4 of 5: Make a note of the symbol that's here, and then touch the slate-shaped symbol to return to the start of the age, where your slate should be waiting by now. (The symbol here shows a path branching in 2 several times, kind of like a "Y" with smaller "L"s on top -- although the picture below is probably much clearer.)
5 of 5: Draw that on your slate, have the Bahro transport your slate to that pedestal, and follow by touching the appropriate symbol on the pedestal at the start of the age.
