In three weeks, I made great progress in learning their language; thanks to the emperor's visits and his help to my teachers. We began speaking to each other a little bit, and the first phrase I learnt was “pleaselet me be free;” which I repeated every day. His answer was, “I need time and and I need to speak to the council and you must first lumos kelmin pesso desmar lon emposo”. The phrase meant that I had to swear to be their friend. He told me to be patient and to behave well. He also added that the police need to search me for weapons; and I told that they can do it. I took the two of the police officers in my hands, put them first into my pockets, and then into every other pocket about me, and another secret pocket. They wrote down everything that they found, and here are some parts of it in English:

“Imprimis: In the right pocket of the great man-mountain (that's how I understand quinbus flestrin), we found only one large piece of cloth. In the left pocket, we saw something big made of silver; and we couldn't lift it. We asked him to open it, and there was something like dust inside. In another pocket, we found some white substances, about the size of three men. After, there was something that the man-mountain used to brush his head. We are not sure about it but we didn't always ask him questions since it was difficult to make him understand us. In the next pocket, there were some pieces of white and red metal of different sizes. Some of the white ones were so large and heavy that my friend and I could hardly lift them. In the left pocket, we found something that looked dangerous. We asked him to show us how it works. After he did it, he told us that in his country they shavewith one of these, and cut their meat with the other. There were also two pockets which we could not open: we told him to show what he had inside; it looked like a globe. We believe that it was an animal we don't know, or his God; because he told us that he always asks it for advice before doing something. From the left pocket, he showed us big pieces of yellow metal, which looked like real gold.
