Revision as of 13:31, 19 March 2014
Relto was Written by Yeesha as a gift to her parents Atrus and Catherine. It was meant to resemble the Age of Myst with Yeesha herself commenting that she placed the library in the same location as it would have been on Myst.
It is unknown when in her life Relto was written but it must have been before she started along the path that lead to The Grower. This can be ascertained by the recorded messages she left behind where she demonstrated a loathing towards the Age of Myst and so would be unlikely to create an Age in the image of a place she despised. Indeed it is likely that Relto was Written before she turned sixteen which is when she left Tomahna to head into D'ni.
First mention of Relto came on December third 2002 by Dr. Marie Sutherland after she witnessed some of the 'Uru Explorers' arriving in D'ni via Jeff Zandi.

Description
Relto is a small island high up in the clouds, surrounded by smaller spires of rock. At first glance the Age is rather sparse, some small pine trees and scrub grass along with a single small hut structure.
Within the stone hut is an empty wardrobe and two book shelves. One bookshelf contains a couple of journals with Yeesha's notations regarding the various Ages (Gahreesen, Teledahn, etc) along with a blank journal. The other is, at first, mostly empty save for a Linking Book to one of the D'ni neighbourhoods.
Due to Yeesha's superior Writing skills, each person who obtains a Relto Linking Book ends up having their own 'instance' or alternate reality of the Age to call their own.
It is also due to these skills Yeesha has as a Writer that allows the Age to 'evolve' as the explorer who 'owns' the Age progresses along The Journey that Yeesha set up for us to follow. Relto Pages allow for explorers to add and remove certain items and wildlife from Relto. Allowing for a myriad of wildlife to be added as well as structural improvements to the hut and other times.
It is still unknown how exactly Yeesha is able to do this. It is likely she had established the Age and made it stable then added editions (much like Atrus added a boat to Stoneship) afterwards with a mechanism that allows for these Garohertee to be activates or negated at will. One can draw this theory due to the nature behind the Age, it being a gift to Atrus and Yeesha and a homage to Myst. At the time Yeesha wrote this (which I have speculated to be before she turned sixteen) she would not have had the skills which makes the Relto Pages possible. It is likely she added these elements years later after she had obtained The Tablet and lost it again as a reward system for those who decided to follow her path.

Wildlife
Buteo Reltois - A specie of hawk that is native to Relto. It bears a striking resemblance to the Zone-tailed Hawk found at The Cleft.
Crimson Kadish - Native to the Age of Kadish Tolesa the Crimson Kadish can originally be found fluttering around the Kadish Vault. With the use of one of the Relto Pages the butterfly can be introduced to Relto.
Chirteetahm Kemo - Native to the Age of Eder Kemo the Chirteetahm Kemo (or Fire Organism Kemo as it translates from D'ni) are small fireflies that are attracted to the human body. As they come with you when you take a step forward these organism fall under the 'one step' Linking rule. Because of this it is possible to take them from Eder Kemo and introduce them to the Age of Relto. Tristalk
