History
During a recent expedition to the ruined D'ni cavern, a group of 400 survivors had been located on an Age called Amargosa, linked to by a book found in a secluded area on Ae'gura island. The expeditioners, having previously learned the D'ni language, planned with the survivors to make a new community where surface-dwellers and D'ni could co-exist, and the Art of Writing Ages could be passed on to a new generation.
The group settled in a small area of Europe and established thier new home: Atrus City. The new city grew at a rapid rate as fans of the Myst games and D'ni culture settled there. Eventually, the city became so large that new residents were forced to found new cities near the original. The city council of Atrus city decided to unite the nacent cities under a single government for their own mutual benefit. As a result, the Commonwealth of New Amargosa was born on Saturday, June 6, 2005 (Leebro 7, 9661 DE).
