You have this book translated? What does it say? What? I'm not sure I quite understand... something about making a new god? No, this is useless to my research. Now if I had the plans for how to make a steam centurion, that would be of much more practical use.

I cannot make sense of this. Even when I try using this "Hanging Gardens" you've found as a translation key, the words simply do not make any sense. I am certain the author did not know any magic himself. Yes, these are probably just the ramblings of some Dwarven lunatic.

Hm. I do not know what to tell you about that book. I can make sense of Dwemer plans, but I cannot read their language. You might want to ask Hasphat Antabolis in Balmora.

That is very interesting. I am glad you found a way to translate this book, but what does it mean? Someday you should take these books to Cyrodiil and speak with the scholars there.

With the "Hanging Gardens" book as a key, I can make out some of what "Divine Metaphysics" is saying. It seems to suggest that new gods may be created through some kind of sorcery. I do not know much of magic. Perhaps you should speak with someone who is both a wizard and a scholar.

I cannot read the Dwemer language, nor do I know anyone alive who can. Dwemer scholars have long been looking for a translation key. It is said that some of the oldest Telvanni have somehow learned the Dwemer language, but these may only be rumors.

This is an explanation of how the Dwemer tried to make a new god, Anumidium, using Kagrenac's tools and the sacred tones on Lorkhan's Heart. It has several interesting theories about how to bend the Ehlnofey or "Earth Bones," but I am not entirely sure I understand it myself. Perhaps after another century of study I could have a better answer for you.

Yes, I can now translate these books. This first one is Bthuand Mzahnch's refutation of a popular theory from Nerevar's time. A few tones of Dwemer believed that using the power Lorkhan's Heart was an unjustifiable risk. "The Egg of Time" contains Bthuand's arguments against this idea, many of which are quite compelling. The next book, "Divine Metaphysics," is an explanation of how the Dwemer tried to make a new god, Anumidium, using Kagrenac's tools and the sacred tones on Lorkhan's heart.

Yes, with the help of "Hanging Gardens" I can read some of this book. It is the essence of Kagrenac's theories on how one might create a new god through the "obedience" of the Ehlnofey and using the sacred tones on the Heart of Lorkhan. Whatever its value to scholars, his theories did not appear to work quite as he intended.

Unfortunately, I cannot read the Dwemer language without some kind of translation key.

This book is just an explanation of some of Kagrenac's theories. I could spend hours explaining them to you, but Kagrenac is dead, and I believe his theories must die with him.
