| “ | The storm has come. The rain has passed. The tree... remains.
But far in the distance, a new storm builds with dry, titian clouds of dust and destruction. They are free; they are gathering. And now, choices abound. Some simple, some deep. Even now, decide. Here (Relto pole with Cleft linking book is shown) explore alone - the place where all journeys begin. There are no others in the Cleft. It is empty desert. Yet there is wisdom on that path. Or here, (Relto bookshelf focusing on neighborhood linking book is shown), explore together - the cavern (Ae'gura is shown) lives, and grows. There are friends. And enemies. Laughing and waiting. Alone or together, destruction is coming. Alone or together, find a way. Alone or together, make a home. (Relto is shown) They come. He comes. And I will come as well. | „ |
[edit] Discussion
Compared to the original Uru intro, this one has a voiceover by present-day Yeesha, rather than Atrus. Arguably sounding bitter, she briefly and figuratively recaps events around 2003-2005 (i.e., from Uru Prime, Uru: To D'ni, Uru: The Path of the Shell and Myst V: End of Ages), but warns that trouble isn't over, though she remains vague over its nature.
She introduces the two beginning options: "alone", replaying a slightly altered Uru Prime, or "together", joining other explorers ("friends, and enemies"), and mentions that "finding a way" and "making a home" are crucial in dealing with the unavoidable fact that "destruction is coming".
Finally, she mentions a group ("they"; perhaps the "friends", the "enemies", the bahro, or simply the DRC), a male person ("he"; perhaps Esher or Dr. Watson) and herself coming to join in the quest.
