the publication

  timber maniacs;
              Laguna wrote for this magazine while he was a journalist. While his exact writings cannot be extracted from the game itself, a rough idea of what he wrote can be ciphered from Selphie's personal reviews on his articles, accessible via the computer panel in the 2F classroom.

It was fate. I can't quite explain. This page is dedicated to Laguna.
No, actually, I call him Sir Laguna.
He is such a hunk! (At least that's what I think.)
It seems Sir Laguna was writing articles in Timber Maniacs while travelling.
I'll be posting some of Sir Laguna's articles here.

Do you understand this picture? Sir Laguna even wrote 'Esthar's Secret'.
But actually... I know what it is! This is where Sir Laguna went scouting.
Was it ok for this to be published? I guess he really needed the money!

This is a hotel in Timber. It's full of Galbadian soldiers.
You'll still find soldiers there, but this is a little too much, huh?
Yes, this is a picture of when Timber was occupied by Galbadia.
Sir Laguna tried to stay at this hotel, but it was used to house soldiers.
Why are these articles from that period?
That's because that was the period when Laguna actually wrote the articles.
So, all the magazines with Laguna's articles are old and worn out.
I wonder how old Sir Laguna is now? I betcha he's a dandy old guy!

H-Heeey!? According to the article, this is Esthar.
I'm very happy Sir Laguna made it to Esthar but...
Is this real...?
This city is soooo cool!
But I hear how, there's nothing on the continent where Esthar is...

According to Sir Laguna, he ended up here when he got lost on the Esthar continent.
I hope Sir Laguna was all right... But what breathtaking scenery!
I wanna go, too! I wanna go, I wanna go, I wanna go!

You all know this place!
Yes, it's the hotel in Balamb!
So Sir Laguna went to Balamb, too.
Looks like Sir Laguna likes hotels.
The article says he really wanted to stay at the hotel but ran out of money.
He wasn't able to try the famous Balamb fish.

This is amazing! Sir Laguna's with the Shumi Tribe!
The article says he got lost and injured, but thankfully ended up here.
Seems like Laguna gets lost a lot. But he always repays an act of kindness.
By the way, the master here is a Shumi. I heard all about it from Squall.
Shumi Tribe... I wanna meet them!

Wow! Sir Laguna's in a movie!
Plus, it looks like it was shot near Trabia!
He could've been famous! Oh... but I betcha he can't act...
He speaks way too highly of himself in the article.
I just find it strange that I don't see Ward in the picture...

Well looky here... He writes proudly of it in the article.
A pub, somewhere, plus the owner. No name or location is written down.
But actually, I know where it is. I won't say though, out of respect for Sir Laguna.
But if it's that important, he shouldn't have published it in a magazine.
But I guess it's something special.
Let me know when you find Timber Maniacs!!!
