Paramonos 	How curious... A familiar bearing armaments? You must be special indeed.
Paramonos 	As it happens, I may have a use for you. Would you care to assist me by capturing a few ophions? In exchange for a reward of sorts, naturally.
Paramonos 	I should warn you, however, they tend to be rather uncooperative. Aggressively so, in fact. The familiars previously recruited for this task all met with most unfortunate ends. A terrible waste, but let us not dwell on such things.
Paramonos 	Here, take this aetherially imbued rope, and use to restrain the ophions. Remember, I require living samples. They are extremely valuable, so if you must choose between their lives and your own...do the honorable thing and let them kill you.
 	
Paramonos 	Just to be perfectly clear, failure is an option, provided you're prepared for the rather messy consequences.
 	
Paramonos 	Have you brought the specimens I requested?
Paramonos 	Well, well. To overcome such ferocious creatures and live to tell the tale... Your maker certainly placed great importance in durability.
Paramonos 	As for the ophions you've brought me, they will be delivered to the Akadaemia Anyder.
Paramonos 	Like the other creatures in Elpis, they are currently under observation, that we may determine their suitability for existence beyond these confines.
Paramonos 	Samples are carefully selected and sent for further study. If they are found worthy, they will receive official approval.
Paramonos 	Only then can they be submitted to the Bureau of the Architect.
Paramonos 	As even you can imagine, the evaluation process is particularly strict for voracious predators such as ophions. It would reflect rather poorly on those involved if they were to wreak havoc when unleashed into the wider world.
Paramonos 	Not that it is any concern of yours. Here is your reward. Now, run along, would you?
