Myst V: End of Ages Hints
I lost my slate. Where did it go?
1 of 7: Esher probably gave you a warning here.
2 of 7: He said that the Bahro would pick up the slates if you drop them.
3 of 7: As long as you didn't have a specific command on the slate, the Bahro will typically take any unattended slate back to the main pedestal for the age -- the one inside the "soap bubble" where you first arrived in that age, from Direbo.
4 of 7: There's generally no harm done, and in some cases, this is unavoidable.
5 of 7: Just go back to the main pedestal and touch the slate again to pick it back up.
6 of 7: You can touch the symbols on any of the smaller pedestals to get back to the main pedestal.
