I found the Oblivion Gate and defeated the leader of the Mythic Dawn, Vonos. It appears this was an elaborate ritual designed to deceive me, and killing Vonos was the final step. I have become an unwitting instrument of Mehrunes Dagon, and my actions have opened the Oblivion Gate.

While searching for clues about the Mythic Dawn's whereabouts I found a journal on a dead Vigilant of Stendarr. They learned of the Mythic Dawn's plot by capturing and interrogating a priest, and were able to decipher the location of the Oblivion Gate. I should go there and see if I can get inside. Wearing a set of Mythic Dawn robes might make it easier, but I need to be careful.
