For what it's worth, the 4th code is "mountain", which can be verified at http://www.the39clues.com/theemperorscode by putting it in with two of the others. Sadly, since this answer was obtained solely via technological means and logical extrapolation from the other codes it's too much original research to include in the article. I can't even say for sure that it is hidden in the symbols and not elsewhere on the cover. Maybe given the answer someone can figure out the method needed to extract it.

this appears to be a discussion of the novel not the article, which is not what WP is about Chrismorey (talk) 06:21, 12 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

In the table of contents of the book, there's a legend on the symbols of the ones on the crown of the emperor's mask, after decoding, it reads "Tenzing Knew Too". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mar vin kaiser (talk • contribs) 09:30, 21 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

I checked the website, and there are 5 symbols for the second word, so you might want to check the translation.Littlemisssunshine22 (talk) 07:04 EST, 23 March 2010 —Preceding undated comment added 23:05, 23 March 2010 (UTC).Reply

Yeah, that's because the first two letters of the second word are equal to 1 letter in the decoding. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mar vin kaiser (talk • contribs) 06:17, 11 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have the circled code. I finally made a log in. The account that posted it was me, not logged in... Anyway, here's the solved codes to the circled words: Madrigals are behind everything. They lay out the path the others will walk. The end is coming. FangrideQC (talk) 04:02, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I added this tag. I know nothing about this series & how popular it is but if it's notable, someone will Chrismorey (talk) 06:20, 12 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
