Dialogue

(Approach Risto): Risto: Hmm... A malfunction? I guess the patrols will have to be done manually for the time being.

(Talk to Risto)

Risto: Who are you? What are you doing here? The cargo crew's supposed to be down by the port.

I am your Harbinger, Marionette!

Paimon: Eh? W—Wait, is that what we're going with...?; Risto: Hmph. I'll give you points for boldness, but if you think such a blatant lie will work, you clearly underestimate us Fatui!
(Enter combat)

I'm a... specially appointed researcher under Marionette.

Risto: A "specially appointed researcher"? Lady Marionette has already reached the pinnacle of both mechanical and kuuvahki research. Why would she need to hire some external researchers?

Scientific progress is built on collaboration, I'll have you know.

Risto: Hmm... fair point. I've helped collect quite a few research papers from the Fontaine Research Institute for her myself.

Risto: Since you're an expert in this field, I assume fixing this Landcruiser's malfunction would be quite easy for you?

Umm... I fear my research focus is more theoretical...

Risto: Ah, I see! Kuuvahki theory is a most profound areas [sic] of study — truly impressive! By comparison, repairing a Landcruiser is much more application-oriented. And it is as you say — they are completely different disciplines.

Risto: That said, Lady Marionette isn't here right now. You could check with Commander Azalea — she might know about any further arrangements.

Of course, leave it to me.

You give the Landcruiser a few good whacks. *clang, clang, clang*... rendering it completely immobile.; Paimon: It's... totally broken... What do we do now?; Risto: Hmph, I knew something was off about you from the start. A real researcher would never make such outlandish claims. You're clearly an impostor!
(Enter combat)

You could say I'm practically her mentor.

Risto: Oh! Speaking of which, I've helped collect quite a few research papers from the Fontaine Research Institute for her myself. She spoke very highly of Dr. Mosso's research findings. Wait... could you possibly be...?; *cough* *cough*... Mm-hmm.; Paimon: Y—Yeah! Never thought your reputation would reach all the way out here, Dr. Mosso!; Risto: Hmph. And as far as I know, you should be thirty years dead. Well, better late than never!
(Enter combat)

Hmph, I'm not playing by Fatui rules.

Risto: Then if you won't follow the rules... Disappear!
(Enter combat)

(Talk to Risto again, if combat was not initiated)

Risto: This is a restricted military area. If you've got nothing else to do here, leave as soon as possible.

Actually, I do — I was hoping for a little sparring match.

Risto: Sparring? But you said you were an external researcher... Hmph, now that I think about it, I don't recall the Lady ever hiring any researchers... Wait. You're a spy, aren't you? Then, prepare to die!
(Enter combat)

Sorry, I got a little lost...

Risto: You can leave through either the port or the main gate. Commander Azalea runs tight security around here — even you need to follow the rules.
