Myst V: End of Ages Hints

When will I meet Esher again in this age?

1 of 7:
After you've found the linking book to Todelmer in the Great Shaft, go outside the room where the linking book is and take another look.
- Where is that book again?
2 of 7: Turn to your left as you're walking out of the Todelmer room, and you can find another elevator here.
3 of 7: Just like the last elevator, you need to call it first.
4 of 7: Pull the handle on the ground to call the elevator. When it arrives, pull the handle inside, and ride it down to the bottom.
5 of 7: You will see a staircase almost immediately to your right when you're first walking out the elevator.
6 of 7: Walk down to the bottom of the stairs, and Esher will give you another set of instructions when you get down there.
7 of 7:
He will tell you that you need to raise the floor and turn on the fans to reach the very bottom of the Great Shaft.
- How I get across the Great Shaft near the second elevator?
- Where is the fan that Esher was talking about, and how do I turn it on?
