When the main island of Riven broke apart, bridges were built to connect the new islands. (most notably the [[East Path]])<ref>RAWA, "[https://web.archive.org/web/20130619011851/http://cho.cyan.com/RAWA/eastpath/eastpath.html What happened to the East Path?]", The Pages of RAWA, accessed on December 1, 2019.</ref> However, the islands continued to drift and so the bridges kept breaking and had to be repaired. Gehn's solution was to replace the bridges with a [[maglev]] system. The maglev was a tram-like vehicle which ran suspended from a pair of metal cables which it levitated over. The cables were flexible and could be replaced and expanded more easily than the bridges. By the time of Riven's collapse, only the bridge connecting [[Temple Island]] to [[Book Assembly Island]] remained, as these two islands hadn't drifted as far from each other. | When the main island of Riven broke apart, bridges were built to connect the new islands.

After Gehn succeeded in writing a link to [[Age 233]], he mostly used linking books to get around the islands. Gehn's books were faulty and needed to be powered, so he built a series of [[firemarble dome]]s to power his books. A small dome was built on each island, and each contained a linking book to [[Age 233]], where he kept books for each of the five islands of Riven. | After Gehn succeeded in writing a link to [[Age 233]], he mostly used linking books to get around the islands.
