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."
