Because of the Riven remake I was thinking about the Myst series again, and the urge to play Myst IV and finally beat it grew in me, so I'm playing that currently.

I always loved the Myst series and played each entry from the first one up to IV, when it was new.

But I never finished IV even though I really like the atmosphere and everything and tried it multiple times.

Well, now I'm playing again, I finished the first age (Spire), and I'm wondering about the story.

Basically they want to check if Sirrus and Achenar show remorse. At the start of the game I thought they had no contact with them, but it seems they are visiting regulary, even Yeesha is visting them without her parents.

Feels a bit weird, and that's already ignoring the fact that Sirrus was imprisoned for many years in a very hostile environment. Everyone would become more "evil" in that situation.

Also what did I actually do in Spire? Was the goal only to find that one diary at the end? No, I could have just gone back the way I came and use the linking book to go back to Tomahna, but I had to use one of the "explosives" to use the elevator which just brings me to the starting point.

Maybe I missed something story-wise? But so far that makes no sense to me.
