| “ | Atrus: There isn't much time. Where's Catherine? Where's the book?
Catherine: Atrus! Atrus: I don't under- (Catherine and Atrus hug) Catherine: The villagers are safely in the rebel age. I thank you. Atrus: As do I. You've accomplished more than I could have hoped for. You've given me back my life. The path home is now clear for all of us. (Catherine links to D'ni) This is where our paths must part. Perhaps we'll meet again someday. You know where to find me. Goodbye, my friend. (links to D'ni) Atrus's voice-over: Now I understand. Endings and beginnings are within the fissure, that riven cleft of stars that acts as both wall and a bridge. And though I am unable to understand how, the very flow of stars that brought my Myst book into worthy hands, I am sure served as a safe passage home for my friend. The age of Riven is closed forever, but the people of Riven are free. And now, I am at rest, understanding that in books, and ages, and life, the ending can never truly be written. | „ |
