All Roads Lead to the Empire

Escort Zimina to the strange building and wait until she finishes the inspection. Talk to her afterwards.

Huh... Do you see that, too? I thought my eyes were failing me. This heavenly place is just one cave away from that snowy hole. And here it is early autumn! Unbelievable!
Okay, we will rejoice later. We still have problems to solve. See those buildings on the horizon? Don't they seem kind of... Imperial? Phew! It means, I'm not hallucinating. If you see them, too, they are actually there. We should inspect them! Let's get closer and take a look. I'm not an expert in architecture, but we will definitely find something out.
I don't like these strange machines that ramble around... They may be slow, but they still look menacing. Watch out for them!

It gets more interesting with every second!

Well, our eyes didn't fail us. This tower was actually built by the Empire. Which is rather weird, but there can be no doubt about it - I found the plan of that building and of some others. They all are designated as parts a complex called "The Bestiary". The most interesting thing is, all equipment details and schemes are marked under the date of year 965. As you remember, that was the time when Nezeb reigned over the Empire...
But we cannot stop. We need to move on.
