You analyze your gold-trimmed dark leather album and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

You get a strong sense that the album can be altered by any merchant. The show description is only visible when the album is closed. Merchants can also change the border that is on the album pages.

Currently, you are able to OPEN, CLOSE, TURN, WAVE, DUST, and PULL the album. To magically add a new picture to the album, WAVE the album. To wipe away a picture, make sure you have TURNed to the proper page, and then DUST the album. If the picture was the result of adding a card to the album, you can PULL the album to retrieve the card when you are on the proper page.

This album currently has 10 total pages in it. Some merchants might be able to add more pages for you.

This album belongs to you. Some merchants may be able to attune the album to someone else, if you ask.
</pre>
|affinity=The album is permanently attuned to its owner. A merchant may transfer ownership at the current owner's request.
