Myst vs. the Pacific Northwest
Brothers Rand and Robyn Miller, as we know, dreamed up the mythos of Myst. But how much was only a dream? The adventurous duo loved trekking through the woods and along the coasts of the Pacific Northwest. Even the Cyan Worlds headquarters, located in Spokane, WA, sits between the forested foothills of two mountain ranges.
Last week, I somehow found myself trudging along a path of moss-splotched pieces of wood winding through the forests of the Olympic Peninsula, rimmed with sixty miles of undeveloped coastline. I remembered what I’d heard over the dinner table the day before, confirmed by the blogs of strangers: this place inspired Myst.
