Gehn had access to fire-marbles while stranded on Riven. While he couldn't use his books, he found out that fire marbles had such an enorous surge that could suppress the variance and hold a Descriptive Book in a stable matrix. After some modifications to the fire-marbles he managed to link to Age 233. Gehn also created a power system on the top of the Great Golden Dome that powered the rotating domes around Riven; it required fire marbles of various colors to be placed in the right combination on a grid, each representing a rotating dome on its specific location on each island. Fire marbles of various colors were on the top of each "reflecton pole" of J'nanin, as well as the path that lead to the Greenhouse. Atrus used fire marbles. His study in Tomahna had such lanterns. It was with one of these fire marbles that Saavedro threw and started a fire.
