Not a long day today. I finished off another marker set (number eight), which contained one very annoying marker under the wooden bridge in Ae'gura, that took several tries to get. Other than that, not much happened. So, I thought I would use this post to give a brief description of each of the Ages that can be linked to from Relto (I'm sure this stuff gets pretty confusing to the uninitiated).
 |
| Relto Bookshelf |
| Bevin |  | My home neighbourhood, including Bahro stone links to a high balcony and the classroom roof. |
| The Nexus |  | A central book suppository that acts as a commuter station of sorts. Contains personal, private, public and city links. |
| Ae'gura |  | Holds Bahro stone links to locations throughout D'ni, including the neighbourhoods of Ae'gura and Tokotah, as well as the Great Zero and the Great Shaft. Most of these locations are otherwise inaccessible. |
| The Cleft |  | A location in New Mexico where you first meet Zandi and your Yeesha Journey begins. |
| Gahreesen |  | Apparently a D'ni garrison that was also used to hold cruel games with captured Bahro. |
| Teledahn |  | This Age apparently began as a private gift to a rich D'ni merchant, but later came to be used to harvest the giant mushrooms and spores that reside here. Teledahn was rediscovered by Douglas Sharper who became very attached to the location and, as a game hunter, entralled by it's animals, especially a giant sea creature he dubbed "Shroomie". |
| Kadish Tolesa |  | Originally this Age belonged to the great wealthy D'ni, Kadish. As D'ni was falling he retreated to his vault to protect his treasures but died there remorseful. At some point in the future, Yeesha apparently discovers a way to travel back in time to save Kadish from his fate. |
| Eder Remo |  | An Age of steam vents, Eder Remo seemed to have been a refuge of sorts for the Bahro who built dwellings in a system of caves behind a waterfall. |
| Eder Gira |  | Initially linked to from Eder Remo, Eder Gira also seemed to serve as a hiding place for the Bahro. It is a garden age with steep rock faces that are covered with Bahro paintings. |
| Nagilahn |  | One of four pods, all of which are in different locations on the same planet. In each of the pods, a portal will open in the early morning. Each portal takes the explorer to a Bahro cave. Nagilahn is a tropical jungle that Sharper claims to have hunted in. |
| Dereno |  | Set in the far north, Dereno is a frozen lake where the sun never sets. However, the water below the ice is teaming with life. |
| Payiferen |  | Located in a more arid, desert like environment, there have still been reports of animals outside the pod. Payiferen is unique of the four pods in that you can see the mechanism that triggers the portal to appear. |
| Tetsonot |  | Apparently the final of the four pod Ages, Tetsonot appears to be located at the bottom of the sea, interfering with it's ability to be powered effectively which hampers any views of the outside. |
Notice how the books are naturally divided into groups on the book shelf. The first three all link to places in D'ni (with two empty places for books to come, I suppose). Next is a book that links you to the surface. After that the five books of Yeesha's Journey and then the four pod books.
There are also two Ages that can only be linked two from a Bevin neighbourhood: Eder Tsogal and Eder Delin. Both these Ages are gardens and contain a single puzzle each that requires several explorers working in unison to solve.

One last note, I have discovered a group calling themselves the D'ni Network that have taken the responsibility of distributing information around the cavern. I have signed up for their news letter which comes straight to my KI. Here are some events coming up in the next week.
- Today: The Guild of Comedy presents Jeff Foxworthy and George Carlin. Foxworthy I've already missed (it was at 12:30 today) but I can catch George Carlin tonight at 18:30 KI time.
- Saturday @ 10:00: The Assembly of Guilds will be holding a town meeting.
- Tuesday: The Great Tree is declaring Tuesday, Black Out Day, where everyone is to turn everything black in protest of the DRC not sharing information with explorers. Sounds like fun.
- Wednesday @ 11:00, 17:00, 24:00: The D'ni Network will be having open houses.
Busy times.
