His part in the restoration of the [[D'ni]] civilization now over, Atrus turned his attention back to his family.

'''Tomahna''' (the [[Dictionary:Tomahnah|D'ni word]] for "home") is the name [[Atrus]] gave to the new home he built on the surface of Earth for himself, [[Catherine]], and their daughter [[Yeesha]], after the events detailed in the [[Myst: The Book of D'ni|Book of D'ni]]. His part in the restoration of the [[D'ni]] civilization now over, Atrus turned his attention back to his family.  


The property on which Tomahna is located is very barren and desert-like. During the intial explorations of D'ni by the Uru Explorers, [[Richard Watson|Dr. Watson]] let slip that Tomahna is several miles from the [[Cleft]]. Yeesha refers to the Cleft as Tomahna, but it was not technically part of the estate. The home itself is something of an oasis, situated high above a broad valley, with a plant-filled sunroom overlooking it. The rest of the home is a collection of greenhouses and spacious rooms arrayed around a large pool of water, which flows (or flowed, at the time) out of the estate and away through the desert.

Atrus and Catherine moved to Tomahna, abandoning [[Myst]] Island, because of the overwhelming memories of [[Sirrus]], [[Achenar]], and their intricate and destructive deception. Yet, almost 20 years after that betrayal, Atrus and Catherine had a linking chamber installed beneath their bedroom that enabled them to check up on their wayward sons – a decision that nearly proved far too costly. In the introduction to [[Myst V: End of Ages|Myst V]], Atrus mentions in a letter or journal entry that the time had come for him to abandon Tomahna as well, now that Catherine was dead and Yeesha off fulfilling her role in the [[First Restoration of D'ni|restoration of D'ni]].
