Myst taught me

that you could be smart and adventurous and didn’t have to hurt anyone to be a hero

that struggling through to solve a problem is better than cheating your way around it

that sometimes when you’re stuck in a rut, the solution is right in front of you

to always do what you know is right, even when everyone is pushing you another way

that pride comes before the Fall and that humility leads to Rebirth

that even the best make mistakes and sometimes they can’t be fixed and you have to move on

to stop and wait and listen and observe, because otherwise you’ll miss something

that no one is beyond redemption, no matter their past actions

that sometimes you’re going to feel Called to something, and you won’t have an explanation

that people are neither all good nor all evil, but somewhere in between

that anything can hold meaning and teach us something: a journal, a cat, family or friends, a word, a phrase, a scratched drawing on the wall, a home in the desert, the loss of a loved one, the beauty of rain, a book fallen through a fissure

or even just a computer game and the worlds it created and the universe it led to

Caption: The prison cells in Gahreesen make me question some concepts of the D'ni people. Why not make large prison Ages and set them free there?

Caption: I think too often people underestimate Achenar's cleverness. The bridge lock was fantastic.

Caption: I like to think that between Riven and Myst 3, the Stranger was probably living in the Cleft, mostly out of convenience and it's probably the only water around for miles.
