==Dialogue==
;(Observe the installations in the camp)
:Observe Shelf: (A shelf packed with books and potions. Looks like the owner has a habit of reading and researching potions simultaneously.)
;(Observe the installations in the camp)
:Observe Table: (Looks like an alchemy work table. Some potions and other apparatus are laid out here. Are these what Albedo uses to investigate the world?)
:Observe Table: (It wouldn't hurt to touch it... would it?)
;(Observe the installations in the camp)
:Observe Record Board: (A board with some incomprehensible experimental reports stuck onto it.)
:Observe Record Board: (Still, you can tell that progress is being made on those experiments.)
;(After observing all installations)
: Paimon: Here comes Albedo, let's go see him.
;(Talk to Timaeus)
: Timaeus: An elemental life form from another world! As soon as we have strong evidence, this may end up subverting a lot of alchemical theories.
: Timaeus: Albedo's research will see huge progress!
----
;(Talk to the returning Albedo)
: Albedo: I'm back. Did you see anything interesting?
: Couldn't make heads or tails of anything.
:: Albedo: Not to worry, they're all for alchemical purposes, you'd be hard pressed to find an everyday use for them.
: Your things aren't very organized.
:: Albedo: Hmm, agreed. I'd love to find a moment to put them all in order. Still, experiments come first...
: Albedo: Well, on with the research.
: Albedo: There may be significant differences between different worlds.
: Albedo: Take Teyvat, for example. Here, those with Visions can manipulate the elements.
: Albedo: But worlds may well exist where only one person is able to do so, or even everyone.
: Albedo: So, leaving elements to one side... Do you possess any... unique abilities, ? Ones that don't exist in this world?
: Albedo: I think answering this question calls for the same methodology as last time. In other words, time for the next experiment.
: Am I battling slimes again?
: I drank my fill, thanks...
: Albedo: No, no! You shan't be required to exert quite so much effort this time around.
: Albedo: Now, see this pillar here. Use your willpower to try and break it.
: Sorry, I just can't do it.
:: Albedo: That was your best effort? Hmm... Well, can't be helped, I suppose.
:: Paimon: What's with the disappointment!? Isn't that, like, impossible?
: Paimon, you give it a shot.
:: Paimon: You think Paimon knows how to do that stuff?
:: Albedo: That was your best effort? Hmm... Well, can't be helped, I suppose.
: Albedo: Ah! Have you tried using your elemental power with food? I don't mean for cooking as such — rather, channeling your power into the ingredients themselves.
: Albedo: I'm curious to see how the taste and texture respond. It may even help with... proliferation...
: Alchemists certainly have active imaginations.
: Sure you're not just peckish?
: Albedo: Haha, I suppose I have a curiosity for things that others find surprising.
: Albedo: Anyway, why don't you cook us up a Sunshine Sprat? I've just finished preparing the recipe.
: Paimon: Cooking? Paimon was looking forward to more mad scientist stuff!
: Albedo: Not only is this recipe a staple for me, it's also worth experimenting with and highly nutritious!
: Paimon: Hmph, Paimon bets you're just hungry!
: Paimon: It does sound yummy though... Okay, Paimon approves!
: I know what you're getting at.
: I'll save you a fin or two.
: Paimon: Mm-hmm, good buddies are always on the same page!
: Albedo: I'll leave you to it, then. Looking forward to the results.
: Albedo: If there's anything left over, maybe Timaeus can finish the last morsels.
: Paimon: Uhh... Paimon doesn't think we'll have that problem.
: Paimon: How are we gonna channel elemental power into the food? Maybe try the willpower thing again?
: Paimon: Where does he get these ideas from anyway?
: Paimon: Ah, let's just do it the old-fashioned way.
----
;(Cook some Sunshine Sprat and talk to Albedo)
: Albedo: That was fast! Looking forward to tasting — I mean, testing — the results...
:;(Give Albedo the Sunshine Sprat)
;(If normal Sunshine Sprat)
:: Albedo: Hmm, an average outcome for a fine dish.
;(If Delicious Sunshine Sprat)
:: Albedo: Mm! An average outcome experimentally, but you've really brought out the flavor. You seem well-versed in the science of gastronomy.
: Albedo: As far as the proliferation hypothesis is concerned, we've come up short. Seems like food presents the same headaches in your world as it does ours.
: Albedo: Unless... Could it be that the natural laws of this world are limiting your unique abilities?
: Paimon: We just didn't know how to channel elemental power into the food. It's a little more complicated than adding herbs and spices, y'know!
: Albedo: Not to worry, at least we put some food to good use, no need to feel disheartened.
: Albedo: And here's your portion, enjoy! I can box it up if you like.
: Paimon: Woohoo, thanks! Glad you were paying attention.
: You're Paimon's new favorite.
: Not often that Paimon gets this much attention.
: Albedo: I can tell that you're good friends. Paimon was keeping an eye on you and your safety during the whole experiment.
: Albedo: Not that Paimon would have been able to do much if things had gone wrong, but anyway...
: Paimon: Hey! You were being nice a second ago!
: Paimon: But you do have tasty recipes, so Paimon forgives you.
: Paimon: And you're right, we are good friends. You have good friends too, right? Good students?
: Albedo: ...Uh, yes! I'm fortunate too, I suppose. Anyway, moving on to the next experiment.
: Albedo: There are all manner of alchemical items here, keeping them in their proper place is a challenge at the best of times. A while ago, I had the misfortune of misplacing a batch.
: Albedo: I managed to retrieve the majority, but two vials have been evading me: Anemo Crystalfly elemental extract and Electro Hypostasis powder.
: Paimon: Paimon's barely finished eating and you want us to go gathering again?
: Albedo: Don't worry if you can't locate them. I was planning to replace them anyway, though finding them would save me the hassle.
: Albedo: If you had, say, a "superpower," like night vision, or vibratory sensing, lost property would be a thing of the past.
: Albedo: I must have dropped them somewhere in the area where you were looking just now.
: Paimon: So... guess we'd better take a look?
: There should be some elemental traces on the lost items.
: Paimon: Oh yeah! You could use Elemental Sight!
;(Talk to Albedo again)
: Albedo: Hmm, an interesting term... Compelling.
: Albedo: See what you can find, I'll be over here.
----
;(Upon finding the Anemo Crystalfly extract)
: Paimon: The extract of an Anemo Crystalfly can only be Anemo elemental energy, right? This has gotta be it.
: Paimon: Still in one piece! Good thing the vial's so strong.
;(Upon finding the Electro Hypostasis powder)
: Paimon: This must be Electro Hypostasis powder!
;(Talk to Albedo and hear his conclusions)
: Albedo: Goodness, you managed to find them? Incredible, a thousand thanks.
: Albedo: I'm wondering, this Elemental Sight... This is what allowed you to locate the items, and find me here in the mountains, correct?
: Paimon: Yup! Guess it does sorta count as a superpower, huh...
: Albedo: Unfortunately, though Elemental Sight is seldom seen, it is not unheard of in Teyvat.
: Albedo: Only a never-before-seen, otherworldly power would be of benefit to my research.
: Paimon: You mean... We failed again...?
: Albedo: Don't be disheartened, this falls entirely within my expectations. Besides, getting these items back? I'd call this a very worthwhile experiment.
: Albedo: I have to commend your deduction that the items would contain elemental traces.
: Albedo: Right then. Up until now, our research has focused on your otherworldly identity. Our research on your identity as one of us is just beginning.
: With you to the end.
: ...How do I get off this train?
: Albedo: In essence, the differences between humans are reflected in our intellectual and physical capabilities. Let's start with physical.
: Albedo: Looking out from where we're standing, can you see what Sucrose is doing?
: Nope.
: Albedo: And if you jumped from here and landed on that cliff — the one over there — could you see her then?
: Nope.
: Albedo: So what about if you planted a single blow on the mountain face here and it burst into a million fragments? Then could you see her?
: Nope.
: Sounds like we're still on the superpower test.
: Albedo: Hmm, then I shouldn't get too excited. Still, we'll gain a more thorough understanding with an experiment.
: Albedo: I know of a location that will be perfect for a physical test. Please, follow me.
