So, let's start with the most obvious discussion topic. Bahro. How do they link? As we know from the Art, linking is done with special ink, special characters, and special paper. It seems like the act of writing a description book is like creating a circuit board, you need the board, you need the material for the circuitry, and you need the specific patterns in order to connect all your little bits. So perhaps the Bahro incorporate the elements of the ink and paper within their anatomy, using their mind to arrange them to link. This could also lead to an explanation of our Relto books coming with us, they've been created to act as if they're part of our body when connected, and thus like the Bahro, our link will come along.
Next, Reltos. Relto pages seem to be a simplified form of the Art, quite literally art in this case, and activating them seems to be like turning small switches on and off. The end result is that our Relto, apparently connected to us like a part of our person, creates a personalized instance, slightly changing for each page activated, but overall remaining tied to our unique energy signature. It appears that along with acting as part of us, they also update themselves because of this, so that whatever we experience and insert in our Relto, stays connected, despite our use of various instances when we activate pages.
This also explains our linking within Relto, to Relto. We're not literally linking to the same place, but to an instance of it, almost entirely the same.
As for instances of other locations, more creative work on Yeesha's part, while also a good game mechanic to cut back on server loads, is that these locations are other locations of the tree of possibilities, determined by chance, created so that the biggest different between instances of an age, is that we're present in one. So while Yeesha and the Bahro may be enabling these unusual things, it all seems to link back to us as the reason for it occurring.
These ideas can also explain how Yeesha can be seen to link within an age infront of our eyes. It's not the same Yeesha, very close to being the same, with the same objectives, but from another spot on the tree of possibilities. This opens up the interesting idea that Yeesha might conciously be controlling herself on every branch of the tree of possibilities, explaining why she has such control over all things.
I've kept it related to the theories behind linking so far, but an interesting tidbit I'd like to bring up. Did you know that one of the ways to spell Jesus correctly would be Yeshua? I find this an interesting idea to present to those who are anti-Yeesha as Grower, as it feels to me like Cyan might be hinting at something.
Anyways, feel free to discuss, or ignore.
