The decree you found made mention of a plan to defeat the Old Gods. I know that the Amathet aren't likely to work with us toward that goal, but if they have a plan tae take out N'Zoth, it's worthwhile for us tae look at it. The decree mentions the Engine of Ascension.

We could not stand against them. Their warriors... wreathed in the sun's flames... They want the forge... to end all... Go... I will... endure...
Mystery of the Amathet has 9 steps, from Eyes on the Amathet to A World Worth Saving.
