[[Catherine]] notes in her journal that [[Gehn]] specifically wrote the elements necessary for creating [[Book]]s and Ink into the Age of [[Riven]], if not every Age he ever wrote. This is why the scarab is present in Riven. Given Gehn's habit of copying from other books, the same Scarab can probably be found in other Ages. As of yet though, we have no records of their existence outside Riven. |
Gehn built the [[Gate Room]] on [[Temple Island]] as a sort of tribute to the Art. The columns represent the trees necessary for creating books, and on the columns are large replicas of the scarab, representing the ink. The inkwell Gehn used for writing, found in [[Age 233]], is in the shape of a scarab. | Gehn built the [[Gate Room]] on [[Temple Island]] as a sort of tribute to the Art.
