Did anyone see that tower in the center of Releeshahn and in one of Yeesha's doodles? Maybe it's purpose and what it is will be explained in teh Book of Marrim because it has to do with Releeshahn!

That's the Pillar of Atrus as described in the BoM excerpt that came with the End of Ages soundtrack and the End of Ages Limited Edition.

It's about 3.5 pages of what appears to be an old draft for the book, which begins about 4 years after the move to Releeshahn. Atrus had brought them to Releeshahn and made a few visits, but left after telling them to make the Age their home, and hasn't been seen since then. Marrim is sitting in her favorite spot on a hillside where she has a good view of the Pillar of Atrus and the Bow, which seems to be a permanent rainbow. There is a matching Pillar of Catherine further down the valley. The encampment of the relocated D'ni colonists is at the base of the Pillar of Atrus. Marrim is reflecting on how little they've really accomplished since the move, because life on Releeshahn is very easy, but she and Eedrah are both worried for some indefinable reason.

That's about it.

Ooooh can't wait!

Really makes me angry that the book was supposed to come out last year.

REad the article description, and it says that there are TWO of these things: The Pillar of Atrus-where the new D'ni reside-and the Pillar of Catherine. I think the pillar of Catherine is what you see in Myst V. What I DO want to know is what is the translation of the D'ni text in the courtyard you Link into?

So when is BoM due to come out?

It's a shame that we got to see so little of Releeshahn.

Hey! I just played EoA, and saw, looking very closely, that there is a SECOND tower in the picture! If you look closely to the mountains in the upper left corner, you'll see another gleaming tower there! I think that the one in the foreground is the Pillar of Catherine. The one in the mountains would be the Pillar of Atrus, where the D'ni has their new home.
