This is what Atrus says when you begin the game. This movie can be found with the Riven Movie viewers in the tData folder as file number 25)155_tintro.mov.
Thank God you've returned. I need your help. There's a great deal of history you should know. I'm afraid that I must continue my writing. Here.
(he hands you a small book) Most of what you'll need to know is in there. Keep it well hidden. For reasons you'll discover, I can't send you to Riven with a way out, but I can give you this. It appears to be a Linking Book back here to D'ni. But it's actually a one man prison. You'll need it, I'm afraid, (he hands you the Trap Book) to capture Gehn. Once you've found Catherine, signal me, and I'll come with a Linking Book to bring us back. There's also a chance, if this all goes well, that I might be able to get you back to the place that you came from.
