Uru: Ages Beyond Myst Hints

What am I supposed to do once I've finished the four ages?

  • 1 of 12: Yeesha gave you some instructions in the pillar room.
  • 2 of 12: She said that you were not meant to hold on to the power of these pillars.
  • 3 of 12: And that you need to return the pillars to where you first found them.
  • 4 of 12: That basically means repeating what you did to find them in the first place.
  • 5 of 12: In other words, you need to go back to each of the Journey Doors in each of the four ages.  (It may help to click on the Journey Cloth in the corresponding linking book, as this will probably get you closer to the door than the main entry point, depending on which cloth you clicked last.)
  • 6 of 12: Walk through the dark section past each of these doors, just as you always have, only you will end up in a pillar room lit in yellow, rather than blue, as it was before.  (It's technically the Bahro cave.)
  • 7 of 12: Return the pillar the same way that you first took it.
  • 8 of 12: Click on the handprint on the wall, and the pillar will be returned.  Then jump back into the opening, and you'll be returned to your Relto age.
  • 9 of 12: Repeat this for each of the four ages.
  • 10 of 12: A fissure in your Relto will start opening after you return the first pillar, and it will be completely formed by the time you have returned all four.
  • 11 of 12: If you've played any of the previous Myst games, you might know the symbolism of that fissure.
  • 12 of 12: Even if you haven't, you might suspect that you want to see what's on the other side.  So jump through it, and you will be returned to the cleft where you first started the game.
