We can only hope you are able to secure more footage of this caliber." - If the image is good, she will say: "This will do very well!"
- If the image is bad, she will say: "This image wasn't captured very well..."
- If the image is a repeat, she will say: "We don't need any more images of those <Beastmen>."
- If the image is taken too far away, she will say: "Footage tells us nothing important."
- If the image is of the wrong type of Quadav, she will say: "I was led to believe that you were a highly decorated hero.
Surely you would consider it best to meet the demands laid forth by your superiors." - If the image is of the wrong type of Boss Quadav, she will say: "While your efforts are greatly appreciated,
it is my understanding that we are seeking to obtain surveillance of slightly more...important Quadav."
