'''Deretheni''' (<dni>DereTenE</dni>{{contested}}) is an artificial stone manufactured by the [[D'ni]]. It is described in [[Myst: The Book of D'ni|The Book of D'ni]] as being jet black<ref>"The jet-black overlapping plates of which [''the Maintainer suit''] was made had a polished, metallic look, yet there was no element of metal in their manufacture. The suit was made of stone—of a special lightweight stone named deretheni, not as hard as the legendary nara". ''[[Myst Reader]]''. Ebook, ''The Book of D'ni'' "Part Three", section 3.</ref>, and [[DRC]] research indicates that it was also incredibly lightweight, despite being nearly as strong as [[nara]]. It was discovered in [[5236 DE]] by the [[Guild of Stone Masons]], during the reign of King [[Emen]]. The [[Guild of Maintainers]] quickly noted that the stone would make an excellent material from which to create safer, more robust [[maintainer suit]]s. These suits enabled Maintainers to inspect a wider range of [[Age]]s, thus granting the [[Guild of Writers]] more leeway in their Writing to include Ages with more experimental atmospheres and energy sources. These suits were used all the way up to the [[fall of D'ni]], and even beyond, as [[Atrus]] and his restoration team used them to investigate Ages for possible survivors. | '''Deretheni''' (<dni>DereTenE</dni>{{contested}}) is an artificial stone manufactured by the [[D'ni]].
