Myst V: End of Ages Hints
How can I start another sandstorm if my slate is on the pedestal?
1 of 4: If the opening in the gate is facing your part of the canal, just take it.
2 of 4: But if you're reading this question, you must have gotten the Bahro to transport the slate for you -- and you've probably run into this situation before in other ages. If this is your first age, the following crash course to the slates and pedestals may help you.
3 of 4: Walk to the "soap bubble" where you first entered this age, and press the two-triangle symbol on the pedestal. This will teleport you to the gate area.
4 of 4: Now, pick up your slate, and press the slate-shaped symbol on the pedestal to teleport back to the start of the age. You can now walk your slate back to the windmill/gate area.
