Quest-Related EventsEdit
Tinzen will suggest you speak with Sevros while doing work for him. He can be found fiddling with a dwemer device in the stairwell of the Bards College.
- "Ah, my new assistant I presume? I look forward to any valid test results you might be able to produce.
Erm, when you use the Dissonance Apparatus, do exercise caution? It required a significant fiscal investment to create." - Tell me more about your experiment.
- "You are a curious one, are you?
Hm, where to begin? I assume you're familiar with Secundus Antilliax Pomo's work: The Harmonics of Motivational Force as Applied to Post-Dwemer Animunculi?" - Not really.
- "I envy you. I spent two years of my life analyzing that dreadful tome, but—as I deconstructed that work—I had an epiphany: why not invert Pomo's premise? Could a harmonic device usurp a Dwemer construct's motive abilities?"
- Is that what your Dissonance Apparatus is supposed to do?
- "How astute. Yes, theoretically, it should completely override a Dwemer construct's ability to move. You will need to verify this and take note of the effect."
- And what about the heartcog?
- "Pomo went on endlessly about the role of the heartcog within the motivational system of a Dwemer construct. I'm skeptical that it's as vital to the process of harmonic locomotion as he claims, and frankly, I'd love to discredit the old fossil."
- I'll do my best.
If you speak to him again at this point, he says:
- "I will await your findings with baited breath."
- How do I operate the Dissonance Apparatus?
- "I constructed it for use by those with limited technical expertise. The process is as follows: locate an active construct, attract its attention, point the device at the construct, and pull the small lever on the side."
- What if it doesn't work?
- "Then I suggest you run. Though if you fail to return, I suppose I can intuit the test results myself."
NotesEdit
- He is only present when you are on the related quest.
