:Magnifico: "...Where steel and phlogiston did collide... *humming*... I slipped and fell into the lava below..."
:Magnifico: "...*humming* They buried me in a great tomb that knows no sound, but don't you know, I'm still around, and around, and around~"
;(Approach Magnifico)
:Magnifico: Haha, my dear and Paimon, my muse and my... Err, mini-muse!
:Magnifico: Ah yes, and , of course!
:Paimon: Hah! Who's the mini-me here, anyway?
:: Raaawr!
:Magnifico: Haha, come now, don't mind me.
:Paimon: Hmph, Paimon minds a lot!
: Newly-inspired, are we?
::Magnifico: Of course! However... Hehe, new inspiration means... that I'll need your help once more.
::Paimon: No problem! You pay every time, anyway.
::Magnifico: Haha, wonderful, my little mercenary!
: Require ye the succor of your... mousses once more, then?
::Paimon: Mousse... Heh, Paimon's feeling hungry already...
::: Groo... Groo...
::Magnifico: Uh, you mean "muses," don't you? Those aren't for eating!
::Paimon: Well, so long as you're paying, that Mora will soon become food!
::Magnifico: Whatever you say, Paimon... But I do indeed have money, so you shan't have to worry about working for free!
:Magnifico: You see, I'm taking a photo of a Tepetlisaurus this time... Shh. Careful now, we don't want to disturb it.
:Magnifico: This is my first time interacting with such a Saurian, but I've been observing them for a while now... Truly fascinating creatures they are, each with unique personalities beneath their hardened shells.
:Magnifico: Hehe, this one's learned some basic commands after being fed a few times, to boot.
:Magnifico: Still, I'm going to need your help, dear Saurian tamers, to bring the wayward Saurian with us and take a photo of it interacting with its fellow Tepetlisaurs.
:Magnifico: Hehe, a simple task, eh?
:Paimon: Yup, super easy!
: (Not that you're the one who actually has to do it...)
: (And it's not as simple as you might think...!)
:Magnifico: Haha, yes, that's the spirit! Come then, bring me the stray Tepetlisaurus, and we can begin!
;(Interact with the book, optional)
:"Detective Snowpaws": (The biography of Frank Drebin, retired Inspector of Fontaine's Marechaussee Phantom special police force. Yep, the Inspector is a vigorous white cat.)
:"Detective Snowpaws": (A big cat paw print is imprinted on the title page of this book, perhaps a special memento the Inspector has left for his subordinates.)
:Paimon: Seriously... Might as well write a book about Paimon too, called... The White-Haired Detective!
;(Talk to Magnifico without indwelling a Tepetlisaurus, optional)
:Magnifico: Come then, help me find a Tepetlisaurus, and we can begin!
;(Talk to Magnifico while indwelling a Tepetlisaurus)
:Paimon: Here comes the Tepetlisaurus! Let's start taking pictures, shall we?
:Magnifico: Capital idea!
;(Talk to Magnifico again, optional)
:Magnifico: "...As fragrant flowers do the dark woods grace..."
:Magnifico: "...Afore we part, grant me your embrace~"
:Magnifico: Hmm? Oh, sorry, just humming a little ditty again.
;(Touch the marker on the right)
:Magnifico: A little to the left... Alright, very good, very good... Yes!
:Magnifico: Hmm, to the right a bit, would you? Feels like we're just missing that little je ne sais quoi...
;(Touch the marker on the left)
:Magnifico: No, this spot won't do... Simply can't get a decent composition for the shot.
;(Touch the marker in the back middle)
:Magnifico: Now I'd give this a passing grade, were we staging a rehearsal. Alas, we are not. Let's pick another spot.
;(Touch the marker on the rock)
:Magnifico: Huh...?
:Magnifico: (Traveler), Paimon, over here! I've found something interesting!
:Magnifico: Have you noticed? Our little fellow seems to have taken note of something... Family, perhaps?
:Magnifico: It's heading over on its own! Come now, let's follow — we can't afford to lose it!
;(Approach the caged Sumpter Beast)
:Magnifico: Huh? Is there a... Sumpter Best in that cage? Why would one even be here?
:Magnifico: Actually, why's there even a cage here at all?
:Magnifico: Forget that for now... Look! The Sumpter's in danger!
;(Upon approaching the enemies)
:Poacher: Who the...!? They're after the Sumpter Beasts!
;(On defeating the poachers)
:Poacher: Wait, it's awake!? Run!
:;(Eroding Avatar of Lava spawns in)
:Paimon: Uh oh, looks like we've got a tough customer!
;(After defeating the enemies)
:
:Paimon: Wow... Phew! Well, that's over. What a rush!
:Magnifico: Shh—! Look...
:Magnifico: *click*
:Magnifico: Perfect.
:Paimon: Whoa, they're getting along so well... And here Paimon thought that the Sumpter Beast might get eaten... or something.
:Magnifico: Hehe, now, now. Tepetlisaurs might look fierce, but they're actually gentle souls.
:Magnifico: Well, that's the photo taken, and here's your copy. Ah, yes, and your payment... here.
:Magnifico: *sigh* Here I thought we might capture an intimate moment between a Tepetlisaur whelp and an adult — but it seems the Sumpter Beast was one step ahead!
:Paimon: Hehe, c'mon, Sumpter Beasts aren't that annoying. Paimon's sure you think so too!
:Magnifico: Well, it doesn't matter what I think — it's the photography judging committee's opinion that counts!
:Magnifico: Still... It might be too dangerous for our lil' Sumpter Beast to wander about in Natlan's unfamiliar environs. And I happen to need a partner to help carry some things...
:Magnifico: Why, I suppose I'll just have to take it in.
:Paimon: What about its original owner, then...?
:Magnifico: Hmph. His own fault for leaving the little beastie out here in such a dangerous spot!
:Magnifico: But anyway, enough of that! Fontaine's photo galleries, here I come! Haha... I trust you'll visit when the time comes as well, alright?
:Magnifico: My apologies, but I must leave this nation now. Farewell, , Paimon! Farewell, my little fellow!
:: Rawr!
:Magnifico: Also... catch! A memento, so you don't forget me, little ones!
