The only way for the prince to stop Carecalmo in his share of forbidden knowledge, was to instruct a new servant, with a new artifact. Clavicus Vile was tricked.Ĭlavicus Vile had reconstitued the curse of his masque, but it wouldn't work, for Carecalmo didn't really need anymore knowledge, for he had all that he needed from it. Carecalmo had translated the alphabet into the Dwemer, and Falmer alphabet, in the stone for everyone in the world to see, and learn a knowledge that was supposed to stay unknown forever. After multiple poems and engravings finalizing the building, the final masterpiece was the inscribing of the Dædric alphabet, which Clavicus Vile considered an honor, at first, but then he saw the most disrespectful thing to his ego and vanity. Using this knowledge, Carecalmo finished the shrine to inscribe drawings and texts along the walls to the glory of Clavicus Vile, which he considered a zealous act that proved the infinite allegiance of Carecalmo to him.

The reason behind that was so that Carecalmo could build a shrine dedicated to Clavicus on top of the subterranean ruins he was supposed to work on, out of the granodiorite and quartz composing the most valuable veins. With this thought, he did a mistake by cancelling the curse of this masque which was to disappear when its bearer needs it the most. The owner of this object would soon manifest, for what Carecalmo was holding in his hands was nothing other than the Masque of Clavicus Vile, the dædric prince of Trickery, who saw the Elf as nothing but a weak, and greedy mortal who would present himself as a complete slave to his will. The stolen artifact, he found only after a few days of exploring, when he came back on his trace, he saw a horn, which start was a belonging buried in coarse, tainted dirt. In the year 3E 425, the Altmer and notable historian for his research on the Dwemer, Carecalmo, discovered Dwemer ruins he later called Ashalmimilkala, and where he discovered the journal and the body of a Khajiit named Wadarkhu, who supposedly stole an artifact and had to run from Gnaar Mok to those ruins, where his wounds and the lack of supplies became the forecoming of, his very own end.
