== Fifth page returned ==

{{Speaker|Achenar}}
Hello. I am Achenar. I am glad to see that you have returned to help me escape from my wrongful imprisonment. It was Sirrus who did this to me. Sirrus, my wicked brother. Do not listen to him! I warn you! I warn you again: he is a liar. Do not be persuaded by his evil lies. Do not release him. He killed my father! He will kill you. [crazy laughter]

It began when my brother, Sirrus, began to lust for riches. He stole from the Ages of Myst. He horded up riches for himself. While father... father slept away his watchfulness, my sick brother secretly pronounced himself king. King of the Ages of Myst, he said. [static] he began to look upon me in disgust— [static] —his— [static] lowly brother.

[static]

I hated him!

And then Sirrus began to destroy the Ages of Myst. He burned their forests. He tore down their structures. He flooded their lands. He murdered their inhabitants. He completely destroyed all but four of the ages.

Of course, I had to warn my Father, but when I finally found him, there was Sirrus also, talking cleverly, with the lying tongue of a serpent. 

[static]

He convinced Father that it was I who had destroyed the Ages. He convinced father that it was I who was greedy for wealth and plunder. And as Sirrus dealt the final blow, he tricked Father into believing that I was the murderer.

But Sirrus did not deal as fast a blow as he planned, and as Father died a slow death he at last doubted my brother's clever lies. And so, in dying, father imprisoned us both, unsure from which of us the blow had come. [crazy laughter]

I swear to you, what I say is the truth. Release me. You must release me! My brother is a deceitful liar and deserves punishment. I only wish vengeance for my dear Father's wrongful murder. Believe me.

You must only recover one additional page to release me from this prison. It is the easiest to find.

Go to the bookshelf that is in this library. On the far right side of the middle shelf, there is a burned book which is different from the other burnt books; this book is filled with patterns. Find pattern 158. Mimic it's design on the panel in the fireplace. Doing this will bring you to the last blue page.

Remember, don't take the red page. Take only the blue page and return it quickly to me.

And do not touch the green book! It is a clever trap to imprison those who have not been warned. [crazy laughter] Do not be tempted: for you will rot and die, imprisoned as I am.

I tell you— 

[static] 

—if you follow my instructions it will be well worth your while. I promise you that. Go. Go.

== Fifth page redux ==

''(If you return to Achenar without the final page)''

{{Speaker|Achenar}}
You're wasting my time! [crazy laughter] And yours!

Go to the last book, on the middle shelf; put pattern 158 into the fireplace! There's no reason to waste time! [crazy laughter]

Just get the blue page! Leave everything else there.

== Fireplace page returned ==

''(Achenar is freed regardless of how many pages you have returned.)''

[linking sound] 

{{Speaker|Achenar}}
[Inhales deeply] Oh, yes! [maniacal giggle] I'm free! [extended insane laughter] Oh! I feel alive! [insane laughter] And how do you feel, my friend? [insane laughter] [panting] 

Oh! And what have we here? Perhaps the pages you worked so hard for? [insane laughter] [he rips one page out] Woops! [insane laughter] Oh, yes! 

Oh! Perhaps you're seeing the world from my point of view. [insane laughter] Yes! Oh! [rips another page] Ooo! [insane laughter] 

Sirrus.... [insane laughter] Where's my brother? [insane laughter] 

Oh, yes! Oh! [insane laughter] Maybe someone will rescue you someday. [insane laughter] [rips out another page] 

Oh! [insane laughter] Oh, yes! [insane laughter] 

[Achenar rips out another page] You lose! [insane laughter] [rips out another page] [insane laughter] [static]
