MYSTerious screenshot in Art of Cyan book

Hi guys,

I just downloaded my Art of Cyan book from the obduction kickstarter and found something a bit odd.

Unless I'm mistaken, this is an entirely new screenshot of Myst island. There is also some D'ni lettering on the library and the observatory. The library says: "Riven" but all I have so far for the Obervatory is : "This is..."

The page before this was just blank except for "Perhaps..."

Can anyone make out any better what it says? Is a new version of Riven incoming? Maybe from the Starry Expanse Project.

EDIT: sorry, I didn't mean to post this in the creativity section. Could a mod move it to the appropriate section please?

Most likely a screenshot from Myst VR.

The lettering on the observatory says "this is wsome text for j". Clearly just filler text.

It's a cool screen shot, in any case. The library design seems a bit different from the other versions of Myst.

Is that art package for sale to the general public, or is it only available for Obduction backers?

Obduction backer reward only, as far as I know.

Yes, It was only available as a Kickstarter reward.

The text on the observatory building does seem to be just a placeholder, but I'm still suspicious about the Library saying "Riven". Why would that be there case within the story? And it seems like a pretty odd thing to use as a placeholder.
