1,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_000020_THANCRED","'Tis I. The situation may be more complicated than we anticipated."
2,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_000030_URIANGER","Indeed. I shall remain watchful."
3,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_000040_URIANGER","Ere thou goest─another matter requireth thine attention. A young maiden, full eager to─"
4,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_000050_URIANGER","Wherefore inquirest thou of her fairness!? Very well. Be she damsel or devil, I shall direct her steps to Revenant's Toll."
5,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_000060_URIANGER","...Save thine insinuations for one given to such impropriety. Thou shalt not find me amenable."
6,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_000070_YUGIRI","(-???-)Far across the sea, from the land of Doma, have we traveled. We seek audience with the ruler of these lands. Who here speaks for you?"
7,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100010_YUGIRI","We have traveled some several thousand malms across the sea, from the nation of Doma, in hopes that we might find sanctuary in these lands."
8,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100020_ALPHINAUD","Sanctuary, Lady Yugiri?"
9,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100030_YUGIRI","Aye. Lying within Othard, Doma was under the dominion of the Garlean Empire, as I am sure you are aware."
10,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100040_YUGIRI","When the war of succession broke out in Garlemald, we espied an opportunity to free ourselves from the yoke of imperial oppression, and took up arms."
11,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100050_YUGIRI","...Only to be crushed. And so I gathered what few Domans escaped the reckoning, and guided them hither to your shores."
12,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100060_ALPHINAUD","A war of succession...? Then the Emperor... Forgive me, you said that Doma “was” under imperial rule, did you not?"
13,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100070_YUGIRI","Doma is gone. Razed to the ground as an example to the other provinces."
14,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100080_ALPHINAUD","Twelve have mercy... And your people?"
15,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100090_YUGIRI","On a ship anchored in Vesper Bay, flying borrowed colors."
16,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100100_YUGIRI","Many were complicit in the rebellion, or are kin to those who were. They will not come ashore until I send word that it is safe to do so."
17,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100110_YUGIRI","I sought an audience with your rulers, but was summarily refused."
18,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100120_ALPHINAUD","The lords of Ul'dah are not wont to entertain foreign refugees without suitable encouragement."
19,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100130_YUGIRI","Mayhap I was foolish to expect otherwise. But our supplies run low, and we have young ones in urgent need of care."
20,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100140_YUGIRI","I have seen the tents outside the gates, however. We are not the first to seek asylum, nor will we be the last."
21,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100150_ALPHINAUD","...Be that as it may, Ul'dah is no friend to Garlemald. Your tale would stir the hearts of many men and women here."
22,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100160_ALPHINAUD","The sultana and the Syndicate will not be so easily swayed─but I shall see that you are granted an opportunity to plead your case."
23,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100170_YUGIRI","This is within your power?"
24,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100180_ALPHINAUD","Well...far be it from me to boast, but I do have the ear of certain influential individuals."
25,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100190_YUGIRI","I am in your debt."
26,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100200_ALPHINAUD","Lady Yugiri, forgive me for observing, but...your choice of attire seems like to evoke feelings of mistrust."
27,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100210_YUGIRI","Men are wont to fear the unfamiliar. We know this from experience."
28,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100220_YUGIRI","We seek only to spare the people of Ul'dah unnecessary disquiet."
29,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100230_ALPHINAUD","I shall defer to your experience, then."
30,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100240_YUGIRI","I thank you for your understanding."
31,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_100250_ALPHINAUD","It seems I have urgent business with the Flame General. I leave our guests in your capable hands."
32,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200000_YUGIRI","I, Yugiri of Doma, am honored to meet you at last, Your Grace. To mark this auspicious occasion, I should like to present to you the finest treasures our humble nation has to offer..."
33,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200010_YUGIRI","Alas, the circumstances which have brought me here today have divested me of both time and dignity. I come before you as a pauper in direst need of aid─to request that you grant my people asylum."
34,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200020_NANAMOULNAMO","I, Nanamo, seventeenth in the line of Ul, welcome you to our city. Be at ease, Lady Yugiri."
35,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200030_NANAMOULNAMO","Although I myself have heard the tale of your misfortune, I would ask that you recount it once more for the benefit of the others here present."
36,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200040_YUGIRI","As you wish, Your Grace. For many years, my nation, Doma, suffered under the yoke of imperial rule, and my people yearned to be free. Thus, when a war of succession broke out in Garlemald, we sought to take advantage of the chaos and reclaim our liberty."
37,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200050_YUGIRI","Alas, our enemy proved less preoccupied than we had hoped, and our rebellion was put down in the most brutal fashion."
38,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200060_RAUBAHN","Those who survived─how many do they number?"
39,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200070_YUGIRI","More than two hundred souls huddle within the cramped confines of our own galleon's hold. Yet this figure accounts for but one of a number of ships which escaped the purge."
40,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200080_YUGIRI","It is my hope that you will allow us all to dwell within your walls. Should that prove unfeasible, however, I humbly ask that you accept as many of my people as your resources allow."
41,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200090_YUGIRI","Pray understand, we do not beg a boon, but propose instead an arrangement. We would serve─as soldiers or tradesmen─until our debt is repaid."
42,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200100_RAUBAHN","What are the Syndicate's opinions on this matter?"
43,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200110_TELEDJIADELEDJI","I, for one, think it's a marvelous idea. Lady Yugiri and her people strike me as an industrious lot, and there are parts of the city which have yet to be fully restored. If they are willing to work, I see no reason not to let them."
44,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200120_ALPHINAUD","The head of the Mirage Trust is not known for his generosity. He sees profit in this."
45,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200130_RAUBAHN","I agree. That said, these are foreign refugees. To admit them would require a formal resolution. Shall we call a vote?"
46,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200140_LOLORITO","The law is the law."
47,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200150_TELEDJIADELEDJI","Lord Lolorito?"
48,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200160_LOLORITO","Tell me: are you blind or willfully ignorant? Even now, our streets are choked with the displaced victims of the Calamity and Ala Mhigan refugees."
49,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200170_LOLORITO","They live hand-to-mouth, subsisting on aid provided by the Immortal Flames─the cost of which grows ever higher!"
50,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200180_LOLORITO","The wealth of Ul'dah is not without limits, my friends."
51,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200190_LOLORITO","And need I remind you that these refugees are prone to violence and criminal activity? You have all read the reports, I think?"
52,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200200_LOLORITO","Without homes or employment, it is only a matter of time before men grow desperate and take that which they imagine has been unjustly denied them. Yet, knowing this, you would have us swell their ranks. Mayhap you think the Brass Blades and the Flames are not hard-pressed enough?"
53,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200210_ALPHINAUD","Some say the chairman of the East Aldenard Trading Company passes gil thrice daily. This may explain how he came to be the wealthiest man in Ul'dah. Or it may simply be that he's ruthless beyond reckoning."
54,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200220_NANAMOULNAMO","Surely the sultanate can support the few hundred Domans Lady Yugiri represents? That our resources have been taxed I do not deny, but we are hardly in danger of financial collapse."
55,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200230_NANAMOULNAMO","I move that an exception be made."
56,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200240_LOLORITO","An exception, Your Grace? I am suddenly reminded of a similar debate some years ago, regarding a number of Ala Mhigan refugees, if memory serves."
57,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200250_LOLORITO","What were your words that day? Ah, yes: “The law is the law.” And so our visitors remained in Little Ala Mhigo."
58,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200260_LOLORITO","Mayhap our wise and benevolent sultana would be so good as to enlighten us as to which other of our laws should not be upheld?"
59,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200270_RAUBAHN","Mind your tongue, Lolorito."
60,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200280_TELEDJIADELEDJI","My lord, I share your concern for the welfare of our great nation, but we must endeavor to take a longer view. You know as well as I that people can be a resource still more precious than gil."
61,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200290_LOLORITO","Precious or not, they were never yet so reliable. And unlike those who frequent your establishment, I have no desire to gamble with my future."
62,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200300_LOLORITO","Ul'dah's greatest asset is, and has ever been, her material wealth. We risk this at our peril."
63,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200310_LOLORITO","One need only look to Teledji Adeledji's example for evidence of the danger in allowing sentiment to dictate policy."
64,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200320_LOLORITO","How far the vaunted Mirage hath fallen, both in repute and profitability, since he began employing refugees..."
65,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200330_TELEDJIADELEDJI","How I choose to conduct my affairs is not your concern, my lord!"
66,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200340_RAUBAHN","A proposal has been tabled. Given its urgency, I move we forgo further debate and call a vote."
67,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200350_RAUBAHN","To accept the Doman refugees or not. Those in favor, I bid you remain. Those opposed, I bid you leave."
68,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200360_NANAMOULNAMO","Would that it were within my power to welcome you and your people, Lady Yugiri. As you have observed, however, my authority in such matters is regrettably limited."
69,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200370_NANAMOULNAMO","Without the consent of the Syndicate, I cannot act."
70,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200380_YUGIRI","I understand, Your Grace. And I appreciate all that you have done on our behalf."
71,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200390_TELEDJIADELEDJI","The nerve of the man... If that bastard had not forsaken the eastern trade route, Little Ala Mhigo would now be thriving."
72,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200400_TELEDJIADELEDJI","That you should have traveled so far, under such dire circumstances, only to be refused in this manner is utterly unconscionable. Pray accept my sincerest apologies."
73,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200410_RAUBAHN","Now that the Empire no longer poses an immediate threat, they see little reason to maintain the pretense of unity."
74,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200420_RAUBAHN","The Monetarists have grown especially defiant of late─Lord Lolorito most of all."
75,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_200430_RAUBAHN","But this is neither the time nor place for that discussion."
76,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300010_THANCRED","How goes the fishing? Caught anything slippery?"
77,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300020_YSHTOLA","Aye. Our suspicions were well founded. The Serpent Reavers are indeed the culprits."
78,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300030_THANCRED","The plot thickens..."
79,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300040_YSHTOLA","Has there been any movement in Thanalan?"
80,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300050_THANCRED","It has been blessedly quiet. Which is to say the Amalj'aa are being no more or less of a nuisance than usual, summoning Ifrit with such crystals as they have hoarded."
81,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300060_THANCRED","Urianger, too, reports naught out of the ordinary."
82,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300070_YSHTOLA","Then we have our explanation."
83,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300080_MINFILIA","Your explanation for what, pray tell?"
84,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300090_YSHTOLA","For the recent spate of crystal thefts in Thanalan. We naturally assumed that the trail would lead us back to the Amalj'aa."
85,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300100_YSHTOLA","Yet it did not. It led us across the sea unto Vylbrand."
86,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300110_MINFILIA","Vylbrand...?"
87,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300120_MINFILIA","There <Emphasis>have</Emphasis> been reports of increased Sahagin activity of late..."
88,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300130_MINFILIA","Oh gods...they mean to summon Leviathan?"
89,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300140_YSHTOLA","That is the way of it, I fear."
90,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300150_YSHTOLA","Whilst conducting our investigation on behalf of the Mineral Concern, we came upon evidence implicating the Serpent Reavers."
91,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300160_YSHTOLA","With the aid of the Maelstrom, I was able to verify our suspicions. 'Tis only a matter of time before Leviathan returns to harrow the seas."
92,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300170_YSHTOLA","But there is more. One of the Sahagin─an elder, by my judgment─spoke of attaining the “gift and knowledge of eternity.”"
93,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_300180_MINFILIA","<moan>"
94,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_400010_YSHTOLA","Such a disturbance in the aether... If I did not know better, I should think this device defective."
95,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_400020_YSHTOLA","And there is the explanation..."
96,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_400030_WUUR","Soon! Sssoon it shall begin! Our Lord shall rise 'midst sssurging waves to wash away the finless ones!"
97,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_400040_WUUR","And I shall be granted the gift and knowledge of eternity, and with the emissary ssstand equal! Then shall I know no cesssation, no oblivion!"
98,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_400050_YSHTOLA","...Whence comes this promise of immortality? The emissary?"
99,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_400060_YSHTOLA","We have outstayed our welcome."
100,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500010_MINFILIA","“The gift...and knowledge.”"
101,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500020_YSHTOLA","Are the two of you quite well?"
102,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500030_MINFILIA","You...you shared that vision, did you not?"
103,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500040_MINFILIA","Even before the Sahagin made mention of the emissary, I recognized Elidibus's words. <Emphasis>He</Emphasis> is behind this."
104,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500050_MINFILIA","But surely it is not within his power to grant the Echo?"
105,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500060_YSHTOLA","My lady─unless we act swiftly, Leviathan will rise again. The Admiral has already requested that we intervene to prevent this. Failing that, we are to attend to the primal's extermination."
106,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500070_MINFILIA","She will have our full cooperation. Let us make haste to Limsa Lominsa."
107,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500080_MINFILIA","I mean to play a part in this mission. Tataru─pray take charge in my absence."
108,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500090_THANCRED","My lady, are you sure this is wise?"
109,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500100_MINFILIA","I am aware of the risks. But there is something I must see with mine own eyes."
110,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500110_MINFILIA","...The true nature of the Echo."
111,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500120_THANCRED","Very well. I shall not stand in your way...on the condition that you permit me to accompany you as bodyguard."
112,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500130_MINFILIA","Your company is ever welcome, Thancred."
113,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500140_YUGIRI","I take it something ill is afoot?"
114,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500150_YSHTOLA","Aye. A primal is about to be loosed upon Eorzea."
115,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500160_YUGIRI","A...primal?"
116,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500170_YSHTOLA","A godlike being whose very existence is a bane upon the land. We Scions of the Seventh Dawn are sworn to put an end to their kind."
117,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500180_YUGIRI","I see. Know then that I am learned in the arts of war. In return for the kindness you have shown my people, I would lend you my blade."
118,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500190_YSHTOLA","It would be most welcome. When contending with a primal, one can never have too many able allies."
119,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_500200_YSHTOLA","If you crave a more intimate understanding of the problems facing Eorzea, this experience is like to provide it. Be sure to come well prepared."
120,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600010_YSHTOLA","Damn them... They have made thralls of soldiers and civilians both..."
121,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600030_THANCRED","Did I miss much?"
122,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600040_YUGIRI","Hah."
123,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600050_YUGIRI","Yah."
124,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600060_THANCRED","So that is how you fight in the Far East? Mental note: pick no quarrel with Domans."
125,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600070_THANCRED","But seriously: if I am to keep up, I must needs forsake elegance for efficiency."
126,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_02200_600080_THANCRED","Yah."

280,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00090_MOENBRYDA,"Alas, it leaves something to be desired in the area of stability. The stone can only store aether for a short while before expelling its contents."
281,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00100_URIANGER,"In addition to auracite's inherent limitations, we must needs be wary of our enemy's strength."
282,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00110_URIANGER,"Our foe draweth upon an infinite wellspring of power. Even should we succeed in entrapping him, the stone will not long contain his wrath."

285,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00140_MOENBRYDA,"The only trouble is, we can't say for sure how concentrated the burst needs to be... Without knowing how much aether an Ascian soul is composed of, we're basically guessing."
286,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00150_URIANGER,Our sole clue lieth in thy struggle with Lahabrea.
287,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00160_MINFILIA,"During that encounter, Hydaelyn bid you forge what She called “a blade of Light,” a weapon which took the form of a luminous stream of energy."
288,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00170_MINFILIA,"Based on your description, we believe the “blade” with which you vanquished your foe was composed of aether."
289,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00180_MINFILIA,"Admittedly, your victory proved ephemeral, as Lahabrea was able to use a Crystal of Darkness to flee into the space that lies between our world and the void."
290,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00190_MINFILIA,"The fact remains, however, that Hydaelyn placed the means to destroy the Ascians in your hands."
291,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00200_MINFILIA,"Be that as it may, it would be unwise to assume that She will do the same when next we encounter such a foe."
292,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00210_URIANGER,"Quite so, my lady. We must needs find the means to forge our own blade of aether─one to equal that which Hydaelyn did benevolently bestow upon Her champion."
293,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00220_PAPALYMO,"That is all well and good, but it seems to me that producing such a blade will require a prodigious quantity of aether. Whence will it come, pray tell?"
294,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00230_YDA,"Ummm... Oh! What if we had *two* pieces of white auracite? One to trap the Ascian, and the other to store the aether for the blade!"
295,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00240_MOENBRYDA,"Nice try, but it's as I said: the stone won't hold aether for any length of time. We'd still need to collect the stuff there and then, sorry to say."
296,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_I00250_THANCRED,And therein lies the rub: finding a way to create the blade whenever and wherever we choose.

313,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00030_ILBERD,There is more. We have reason to believe that Roaille didn't deal exclusively with the XIVth. She also answered to a higher authority in Garlemald.
314,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00040_ILBERD,"But this higher authority could not have been the Emperor. By consenting to the Meteor project, Solus zos Galvus showed himself to be more concerned about preventing the spread of primal influence than claiming Eorzea for the Empire. He would happily have seen the lot reduced to ash."
315,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00050_ILBERD,"We believe a number of high-ranking figures within the royal household were against the decision, but that they knew better than to oppose the Emperor openly. Of course, this didn't prevent them from making clandestine provisions, in which Roaille played a part."

318,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00080_RAUBAHN,"Even before the accursed thing was dug up, it seemed to me the XIVth had the might to overwhelm our weakened armies. Yet they chose to hide behind their walls. Why?"
319,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00090_ALPHINAUD,"The Black Wolf was wary of making the denizens of Eorzea desperate, lest more primals emerge to bleed the land. The discovery of the Ultima Weapon, however, emboldened him to resume his war of conquest in earnest."
320,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00100_ILBERD,"But there was one in Garlemald who believed that van Baelsar's actions were premature─one who stood higher in the imperial army's chain of command. He ordered the legatus to halt his advance, only to find that the Black Wolf had slipped its leash, and that the XIVth now acted alone."
321,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00110_ILBERD,"In a bid to bring van Baelsar to heel, he used the agent he had planted in Ul'dah prior to the Calamity to undermine the legion's efforts."

324,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00140_ILBERD,"But one of several, in actual fact. We've learned that even as Roaille served the Empire's interests, she sold imperial secrets to a certain faction in Eorzea."
325,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00150_ILBERD,"In so doing, she helped to maintain the status quo, thus prolonging the conflict. Considering who stands to profit from war, it isn't hard to imagine who her other masters were."
326,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00160_RAUBAHN,Seven hells... You mean to say that she was a double agent?
327,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00170_ILBERD,"Triple, if you consider her services to van Baelsar and the new emperor as separate."
328,TEXT_VOICEMAN_02400_J00180_ALPHINAUD,"As neatly as these pieces seem to fit, one aspect of the puzzle remains unclear to me."

297,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_002820_MINFILIA,Dearest friend...no words can express my gratitude to you for keeping her safe in these tumultuous times. You are a hero to us both.
298,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_002830_MINFILIA,But not even the most valiant heroes can stand alone.

304,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_002890_ALPHINAUD,Minfilia...?

317,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_003020_RYNE,"(-Minfilia-)I'm sorry, I don't. I couldn't have been very old when it happened."

319,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_003040_ALPHINAUD,"If the lady herself has no preference, I think the honor should rightly fall to Thancred. After all they have been through together, he's practically a father to her."

321,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_003060_ALPHINAUD,And what exactly is that supposed to mean?

346,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_Q5_000_001_NONE_VOICE,What will you say?
347,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_A5_000_001_NONE_VOICE,So this is where you've been hiding.
348,TEXT_VOICEMAN_05003_A5_000_002_NONE_VOICE,Why did you stay behind?

427,TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_004080_MYSTERIOUSPERSON,They did. They expunged the seeds of chaos and restored the peace...only to find themselves seduced by the Darkness they had sealed.
