I got 'Hanging Gardens' form somewhere and went to the dwarf about it and he told that its just some boring travel whatnot. Also said that if I wanted he could translate other texts Id find.
So I got 2 books of the Kagnerac's Library that apparently are in some runic text I cant read. So I went to the dwarf again in hope that hed enlighten me about some grand Dwemer secret, instead the book titles even wont appear into the dialogue tree.
Have I done something totally wrong or are the books meant to remain as a mystery?
PS. Cant remember the damn names... both had Kagrenac's name in the title tho if it helps at all ;)

The two Kagrenac books (workbook & journal, maybe?) are useful to Yagrum... but only if you're following the 'alternate' main path. The Hanging Gardens (as well as two others) are for the Archmage Trebonius' mission.

Like the low levels of Nchuleftinght (I got one door open only) ?

Nah, we never actually know what's in Kagrenac's books; Yagrum just uses 'em to refresh his memory (and thus further your own efforts if you need the alternate path).

ok. Little more about the Dwemer secrets. While in Nchuleftinght I stumbled across those Mages and the deceased one had a scroll pointing into Mzuleft.
As I had my temporary lodgins in Dagon Fel before I got the stronghold I had plundered the whole island and now I have no idea what there is supposed to be special at Mzuleft as naturally for being a dumbass I think I've sold just about everything Ive collected (it was still ass to haul the stuff to Odai Plateau even after cleaning the stockade :)). So what special is in Mzuleft?

either dwemer scarabs or schematics for the ald'ruhn mage's guild

As a general pointer, if you find any other Dwemer books (aside from the Kagrenac ones) that you want translating, there are a number of people with a scholarly interest in the Dwemer who can help: Divath Fyr, Hasphat Antabolis (Balmora Fighters), Edwinna (Ald'Ruhn Mages), Baladas (Telvanni guy in Gnisis).....anyone know of any others?
I've taken a copy of Hanging Gardens to these people along with some other Dwemer books I've found, and they've told me some quite interesting things-not a word for word translation though.
While I'm on the subject, I recently liberated some of those Dwemer plans that (insert Telvanni guy's name) has in his Dwemer museum at Tel Vos.....they look important, but I can't figure out what, if anything, I'm supposed to do with them. Is there any way of "using" them in the game, or are they just there for background?
I really like this part of the game. It's great to be able to pursue a career in archaeology as a complement to the main quest-top marks to Bethesda for including this one :)
