The following information comes from a post Richard Watson made to the Riven Lyst.



I browsed through FMtR, and I noticed in one of the early (1994-95) diagrams in the concept stages, Cyan was calling something Equiquay, what was this suppose to be?

An equiquay (pronounced "EK-wi-kee") is a central linking hub. Gehn's office on Age 233 is an example of an equiquay. It is an efficient way to link between multiple Ages (though all of Gehn's books link to different places on the same Age).

It's based on English words:

equi- "equal" (as in equivalent,equilateral,equilibrium, etc.)
quay- "landing place"
