This might be a bit long winded so please bear with me on this.
I'm sorting out the marble problem in the golden dome, I've sussed out the relationship between the symbols on each dome, the 3d imager on map island, and the way the colours relate to the symbols, however there are 6 colours but only 5 islands, one of which is prison island which so far I have not been able to get to, (I managed to get to Moiety but came to a swift end when the credits started to appear but that's another story).
Also the "sight" for the dome on map island is bent so you can't see the aymbol when the dome stops.
In a nutshell have I got to get to prison island before I can finish the marble puzzle.
Onwards and upwards.

Wrong on two points hadleigh. You can't get to Catherine's prison until you solve the fire marble puzzle, and you can just make out the symbol on the dome on Plateau island--the one where the viewer is skewed sideways. You have to look carefully, but you can see the symbol.
The only way you'll reach Catherine's prison is by using the linking book in any of the small domes. And the only way you'll use the linking book is by placing the fire marbles in the correct position to power up those linking books.

When I was playing Riven for the first time that part drove me batty.
