'Hmm. Yes, I have considered your offer, and I have decided to accept. It seems very fair, and mutually beneficial to us both!' the Emperor exclaimed, slapping Louis on the back in joy. 'Now, iif you could follow me, you can meet the princess!'

[CLASSIFIED - TOP LEARANCE ONLY!]

Project: Behemoth

-14th of Last Seed, 6E 182-

''The project was finally given clearance, and we can now begin on the prototype. This should certainly be a fascinating opportunity to try out the Dwemer tech we found last month.''

(There is a simple sketch similar to the one Sander found.)

-23rd Last Seed, 6E 182-

It would seem that the Dwemer tech is even better than we had previously imagined - we have now got a fully functioning leg, which responds to the pilot's commands.

(A sketch of a metal leg, complete with annotations, is cliipped to the file.)

-2nd Sun's Dawn, 6E 183-

''The prototype is going well, but we have run into a problem - the gases released by the Dwemer machinery can sometimes cause unfortunate side effects. A gas mask is being designed to try to fix these problems, but progress is slow. It seems that the Emperor is becoming impatient, no doubt hoping to use this weapon against Samarkand as soon as possible.''

(A diagram of the gas mask is included, it looks kind of like a standard gas mask but with steampunk looking Dwemer additions.)

-27th Rain's Hand, 6E 183-

''The prototype is almost complete! The internal workings have finally been finished, now we just need to get the materials needed for building the exoskeleton.''

(The following files are diary entries written by the Emperor.)

-15th First Seed, 6E 183-

''This project seems like it should be excellent indeed! I certainly hope that it will work - I'm spending a small fortune on it. But if it works, then Samarkand will be at my mercy! Tomorrow I'll try to get some of the Psijic Scientific Order's top brain-boxes on the team, so that things can get done even quicker.''

-25th Rain's Hand, 6E 183-

''The project is going nicely, indeed! In fact, Phinius tells me it's almost complete. It should be ready by Sun's Dusk, he says.''

(There are several sketches and diagrams of the Behemoth, as well as close ups on the internal Dwemer Tech, and also the joints and workings.)

(Now fort the secret messages.)

(In Bosmeri)

''The Dwemer tech was found in a ruin about a mile east of Balmora, on the island of Vvardenfell. Any other information you need will be found there. I may be killed for hiding these messages, but at least it will be for the Cause.''

(In Old-Atmoran)

''The Scientists that the Emperor recruited are not entirely loyal to him, and report back to the Psijic. If the Psijic know what's happening, then it is likely they can be turned towards the Cause, if they understand what the Emperor plans to do.''

(In Ayleid)

''The Emperor is bringing in shipments of materials for the project, and they will be shipped in to Anvil, Daggerfall, and Rihad. If you get there in time, you may be able to follow the packages to lead to wherever they are building the Behemoth.''

(In Sload)

''If you have managed to translate these messages, then you must make sure the project is stopped, at all costs. It is too late for me, but it is not too last for the Cause!''
