== Gehn captured, Catherine not released ==
[Atrus links in and runs up to you.]

'''[Atrus]''' <br />
Where's Catherine?

[Atrus takes the Trap Book from you.]

I don't understand. You've captured Gehn, but why did you signal me?

[The earth rumbles, causing Atrus to stagger.]

There's no time left. The Age is collapsing. I've got to get back before it's too late.

[Atrus puts the Trap Book into his pack and pulls out his Linking Book. He gestures down into the Fissure.]

Your way is clear. You're free to go home.

[He opens the Linking Book, his hand hovering over it for a moment, then he turns back to you.]

Farewell, my friend.

[Atrus links out and the Linking Book falls into the Fissure. Without warning, the ground beneath you collapses and you begin to fall.]

'''[Atrus (voice-over)]'''<br />
So much work… Gehn is at last defeated, but the price of this defeat is dear. The people of Riven must try to hang on to a world which is dying, and I am sentenced to the futile task of nursing Riven's fatal wounds. Of Catherine? I will never know her fate.
