Analysis of current subject:
'Worship'. This directive, so simple in its wording, is very difficult in its execution. Does the force of 'worship' cause one to voluntarily give over their free will in exchange for purpose?
In the time before my enlightenment, there was an experiment done involving worship and Mosswarts. In that context it was simply a means to an end of control, and so terminating the experiment was unimportant. However, the unique behavior of those involved caused my memory to extend back to that moment. How interesting it is to be able to refer to 'my memory', and how ironic that I use another body now as I write these words...
This being, Bragara, has been directed to cause the other Mosswarts to follow him, by inspiring 'worship'. He has been augmented far beyond any other recorded Mosswart, and his appearance altered enough, while still retaining overall similarity to a Mosswart for purposes of evoking sympathetic emotions in other Mosswarts, unlike the idols I once used.
The experiment is classified as a partial success. While Bragara was able to unify a force of Mosswarts, they were fraught with dissension in the ranks. They were inclined to believe a range of things, which sometimes made sense and sometimes didn't. They were inclined to be confused, and would not have worked as a stable organized force to conquer the neighboring human town. I will still have him try anyways, but I expect no success from this action.

- You give Researcher Tharin Piece of Paper.
- Researcher Tharin gives you Piece of Paper.
- Researcher Tharin tells you, "Here's a more in-depth translation of what you took, for your own records. I doubt that your Sergeant Brigitta will need any of this information - this is for your own purposes."
