Survey Island
From MYSTlore
Survey Island Arguably the most menacing of the five Riven islands, as it is flanked by rows of Wahrk tusks and huge spires of stone. Gehn used this island to (appropriately) survey Riven’s deterioration by way of a Map Room, though the island had alternate uses considering the monumental Wahrk Throne Room found on the lower level.
The following section is written from an OOC point of view. Events and elements surrounding the Myst Universe are regarded as fictional.
Survey Island is the only one of the five major areas in Riven that the player does not need to visit in order to finish the game, as it only contains clues. This does of course require prior knowledge of the game.
