Designation: D’ni Age
Eder Tosgahl was written during the "Garden Binge" of the 8100's along with Eder Kemo, Eder Gira, Eder Delin, and numerous others.
It was the second Age released during the DRC's second restoration attempt and was released a month after its sister Age Eder Delin.
The Age was released to the public on Feburary 15th 2007 where it was placed into neighbourhoods that did not have an Eder Delin Book allowing for a mixture of Ages to be found.
Eder Delin and Eder Tsogahl are similar to that of Kemo and Gira in the sense that they are two parts of a single journey. Both Delin and Tsogahl contain Bahro Doors that lead to the same Bahro Cave in which to halves of one of the Stone Wedges can be obtained.

Appearance
Eder Tsogahl takes its name from the large bright sun that blazes down upon the Age. Like Kemo and Delin the Age sits within a canyon with smooth rock cliffs. The floor of this basin is rustic in nature with long over growing green grass and shallow pools of water. Seeds that bare resemblance to dandilion seeds float on the slight breeze that can be felt. There is minimal architecture within the canyon with only a handful of structures from a gazebo and a fountain similar to ones found upon Kemo and Delin, as well as a small seating area where the Linking Book back to D'ni resides.
Outside of the canyon is a vast grassy plain that stretches out toward mountains in the distance. The area is populated by an array of autumnal trees.
Like Eder Delin, there is a metal "Bahro Door" embedded in the canyon cliff-face.
Stained Glass Windows
In early 2007 the DRC hosted a series restoration contests in regards to stained glass windows for Eder Delin, Tsogahl and later for the Great Zero (much akin to the contest held in the past for Gahreesen stained glass windows.
Three winning restoration projects were announced and were hung in various Neighborhoods over the Delin and Tsogahl Books.

Path of Cooperation
Eder Delin and Eder Tosgahl, like many other Ages have Yeesha/Bahro influence upon them. Within both Ages is a large metal "Bahro Door" that like the Ages contained within the original "Journey" is tied to Journey Cloths scattered around the landscape.
Unlike the other Ages the cloths in Delin and Tsogahl work slightly differently. Explorers who try to access the Bahro Door set off the lock mechanism. This lock highlights the combination needed to access the door. Within the Ages each cloth when activated correlates with a segment of the combination, like the other Ages there are again seven Journey Cloths. Each cloth must be activated in the required order but before the lock mechanism has completed a full rotation. This requirement means that explorers must work together to open the door which has resulted in people referring to this journey as the Path of Cooperation.
Within the group of explorers trying to access the door one will either choose to be, or nominated to be "The Caller". The others will take up positions at each of the Journey Cloths with any other explorers observing.
The Journey Cloths are each assigned numbers depending on what part of the combination they produce. The Caller will then activate the Bahro Door lock and call out the numbers required. Each explorer will then activate their correlating Journey Cloth in order to release the lock and open the door.
Successful attempts will allow the explorers into a Bahro tunnel where they are Linked to a Bahro Cave. Within which is a segment of a Stone Wedge.
