Myst: The Motion Picture puzzle/Naigahsehn (13)

The new jpeg for January 3, 2008 was called naigahsehn, the D'ni word for "thirteen" (13). Once again, it featured a new tile in a different location, and the slogan was shortened to "The Motion Picture." Furthermore, the HTML source code of the page included a comment with a series of additional D'ni words:

rihsh.fah.vahgahsehn.vahgahbree.fah.vagahsehn.naygasehn heegahsehn.vaht.vahgahsehn.rihsh.vaht.heegahsehn.heebor.naygahfah.vahgahsehn nayvoo.vaht.heegahsehn.rihgahfah.rihsh.vahgahsehn rihsh.heebor.heebor.naygahbree.heegahtor

heegahfah.heegahsehn.vaht.vahgahsehn.naygahtor.vahgahtor.rihgahbree

The words are the following series of numbers written in the D'ni language: 20.1.8.7.1.8.13 18.5.8.20.5.18.15.11.8 10.5.18.21.20.8 20.15.15.12.19 16.18.5.8.14.9.22

Using a substitution cipher of A=1, B=2, etc., the numbers spell out the D'ni sentence: "tahgahm rehterokh jeruth tools prehniv" There is a minor flaw in the grammar ("tools" should have been written as "toolehn") but it translates to "I know the Tree of Possibility grows once again".[1]

The sehn jpeg could still be reached via direct link, but had now changed to version B. The point of view in the tile image changed, just as it had done previously with the heebor images.
