When she arrived at the edge of the D'ni empire, Anna was apprehended by members of the [[Guild of Maintainers]] and taken to a prison in an adjoining cavern.

Masters from the [[Guild of Linguists]] were brought in to communicate with her, and over the course of several weeks, she learned to speak the [[D'ni language]]. Anna was brought before the [[Guild Council]] and questioned about human kind before being released into the care of Aitrus and his family. Aitrus' eagerness to share everything about D'ni with Anna ended in sanctions when the Guild Council discovered that he had been teaching Anna ''[[regestoy]]''. Anna pleaded with Guild Master [[Kedri (Guild Master)|Kedri]] from the [[Guild of Legislators]] to intercede. The sanctions were overturned when one of Kedri's guild cadets discovered an ancient precedent in Council records which permitted outsiders to learn the craft, but Aitrus did not rejoin the Council for several years. | ||
In that time, Aitrus and Anna grew closer. They wrote the Age of [[Gemedet (Age)|Gemedet]] together, and she adopted the name Ti'ana, | In that time, Aitrus and Anna grew closer. They wrote the Age of [[Gemedet (Age)|Gemedet]] together, and she adopted the name Ti'ana, which Aitrus had used as a nickname and as a play on her given name. Shortly after completing Gemedet, Ti'ana accepted Aitrus' marriage proposal. At the Guild Council ceremony officiating the wedding, however, Aitrus' long-time friend [[Veovis]] objected on the grounds that a marriage between a D'ni and an outsider was improper. Aitrus ultimately convinced Veovis to allow the marriage to proceed by calling in an old favor, but their friendship was irreparably severed as a result. | ||
Together with her husband, Ti'ana pushed for a number of reforms that would give the lower classes of D'ni more say in the operation of the government. These reforms passed the Council by a narrow margin in 9392 DE, the same day that Ti'ana gave birth to [[Gehn]]. | Together with her husband, Ti'ana pushed for a number of reforms that would give the lower classes of D'ni more say in the operation of the government.

For fourteen years, Ti'ana cared for her grandson, whom she named [[Atrus]]. She taught him a great deal about scientific inquiry, and regaled him with historical tales of the great D'ni civilization – though she was always careful to omit certain details. When Gehn returned in 9425 DE (1769 CE) to take Atrus back to D'ni with him, Ti'ana secretly followed behind them.

When Gehn returned in 9425 DE (1769 CE) to take Atrus back to D'ni with him, Ti'ana secretly followed behind them. Once back in D'ni, she waited for the right opportunity to save Aitrus from his father's harsh treatment. In doing so, she enlisted the aid of a [[Rivenese]] woman named [[Katran]]. Together, the two made plans to trap Gehn on the Age of [[Riven]], all while Atrus himself was planning with Katran – now Catherine – to do the same. Ti'ana wrote the Age of [[Myst]] to provide the young couple with a refuge away from Gehn's watchful eye, though in order to keep Ti'ana's involvement a secret, Catherine claimed she had written it. | ||
Following Gehn's imprisonment on Riven, Ti'ana revealed her involvment and reunited with her grandson. Together, the three of them lived on Myst Island as Atrus and Catherine started their own family. | Following Gehn's imprisonment on Riven, Ti'ana revealed her involvment and reunited with her grandson.
