87.7.16 The last few days have left me little time to work out the remaining problems with sending someone else to Riven. It did occur to me, however, that if a way could be found to signal me once Gehn had been captured, it would no longer be necessary to take a real Linking Book to Riven, and risk the possibility of inadvertently releasing Gehn. | 87.7.16 The last few days have left me little time to work out the remaining problems with sending someone else to Riven.

The deteriorated state of the Gateway Image makes use of a visual signal impossible, but the picture remains a reliable indicator of Riven's condition nonetheless: by measuring and interpreting variations in the noise patterns, I am still able to observe basic changes that occur in the Age - even though I cannot see them.

The problem is that my instruments can onl detect changes that occur o a fundamental level, and it seems unlikely that an individual could effect such an elementary change from within an Age. The idea may be foolish. | ||
