BATTLESPIRE - the traitor?
akaroth
Here is a brief segment from the interview on Desslock's guide to
upcoming RPGS:
Ken: The villain of Arena, Jagar Tharn, is ultimately responsible for the
invasion of Battlespire. Traitors within Battlespire who opened the gate
to Mehrunes Dagon's daedric troops were suborned by agents of Jagar
Tharn. By asking the right questions, you can learn who the agents were,
and which mage betrayed Battlespire. You may find both the agent and the
traitor, and mete out justice to them.
Is this still possible to do? I've beaten the game now, but didn't find
either of them. I have heard the name of one of them, but paid no
attention to it. Has anyone done this/found any indication its possible?

Here is Ken's reply to you:
1. The following note, found in the second half of Level 2, links the name
Sirran Angada with Jagar Tharn.
[a neatly penned message on a small piece of paper, many times folded, and
signed in a bold, formal hand]
Read this and let it be judged fair, nor doubted.
The bearer wears the form of Lomegan Mariel, Imperial Secretary, but is indeed
Sirran Angada. Sirran Angada enjoys my countenance, and speaks with my voice.
Jagar Tharn
2. The Battlemage traitor, Paxti Bittor, is encountered as a wraith on the East
Dock of the flooded passage in level 3. In his dialog, Paxti Bittor complains
bitterly about how he betrayed Battlespire in hopes of reward, but how he was
in turn betrayed by Angada and Dagon. The two most important Bittor dialogs
follow, giving the essential exposition on the betrayal of Battlespire:
Bittor: "Sirran Angada? No, perhaps not. A leechcrafter retainer of Jagar
Tharn, the Emperor's Battlemage. He set it all up. I open the gate to the
Prince, he comes in, cleans out the Battlespire, and I just barely manage to
escape with my life, bringing the tragic news to the Emperor and Tharn. I'm a
big hero, a personal retainer of Jagar Tharn, close to the Emperor and his
family. In time, I get my own province. A great deal. And I delivered! But the
scum cheated me!"
Bittor: That's generous of you, but this Angada has a special Transmorph spell,
so he could look like anyone. Angada was posing as Lomegan Mariel, the
Emperor's Personal Liaison to the Battlespire, when the Daedra took the place,
but he -- or she -- could look like anyone by now. I appreciate your help, but
you might want to run away now, because I feel the hungry madness coming on
again, and I'm not much fun to be around.
Those who have found the Book of Rest and Endings are able to destroy Paxti
Bittor in dialog.
3. On Level 6, in the Observatory [the southmost of the chambers in Xivilai's
complex to the east of the central grassy courtyard, with a big telescope-like
object] is Sirran Angada. He is a flat. In dialog, he may either be slain, or
left alive, at the player's option.
