2,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000030_VARSHAHNBIG","Indeed. This vessel now serves as a host for my eye."

4,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000050_NIDHANA","We couldn't well send you on such a perilous mission unprepared, Your Excellency."
5,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000060_NIDHANA","We spared no effort in crafting the body, and I daresay you'll find it adept at wielding weapons and magicks both."
6,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000070_NIDHANA","'Twas our intent to present it to you sooner, but we could not bring ourselves to do so knowing we could yet improve it further. Pray forgive us..."
7,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000080_VARSHAHNBIG","There is naught to forgive. I am grateful for this fine vessel, and shall put it to good use."
8,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000090_VARSHAHNBIG","Again, I ask that you watch over Radz-at-Han in my absence. The dangers we go to face are great and many, and I fear I will be unable to give matters here due attention."
9,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000100_VARSHAHNBIG","And in opening the voidgate, there is ever risk that voidsent will find their way into our world..."
10,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000110_NAHBDEEN","Rest assured we are more than prepared."
11,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000120_NAHBDEEN","Our soldiers have been training under Master Estinien. On my honor, we will not suffer a single fiend to pass."
12,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000130_NAHBDEEN","So think only of your mission, Varshahn."
13,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000140_NAHBDEEN","Ah, but seeing as this is a different body, perhaps we should use a different name?"
14,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000150_VARSHAHNBIG","Nay, Varshahn shall suffice. Though I may have thus grown up, I am as ever a little brother to you all."
15,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000160_NAHBDEEN","As you say, as you say. Go then, Varshahn, and best of luck!"
16,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000170_YSHTOLA","I have something for you as well."

18,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000190_YSHTOLA","As you may recall, he joined us on our foray into Alzadaal's Legacy in part to conduct research for the Loporrits."
19,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000200_YSHTOLA","Research they were delighted to receive, and which has already inspired them to consider new ways to improve their own treasure vault."
20,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000210_YSHTOLA","As a token of their gratitude, Livingway entrusted a familiar relic to Urianger..."
21,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000220_YSHTOLA","Aye, the crystal which showed the way to Meteion. "
22,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000230_YSHTOLA","The Loporrits no longer have need of it, and thus saw fit to return it to us."
23,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000240_YSHTOLA","Harboring the power of Light, it could well aid us in our mission in the void."
24,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000250_YSHTOLA","And who better to bear Hydaelyn's gift than Her chosen champion?"
25,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000260_VARSHAHNBIG","If there is nothing left to discuss, then let us depart. Our boat awaits us in Akyaali."
26,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000270_VARSHAHNBIG","I shall now lift the seal."
27,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000280_VARSHAHNBIG","In the name of Alzadaal III... I cast open this door unto the void!"

30,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000310_ESTINIEN","What can we expect to find after stepping through?"
31,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000320_VARSHAHNBIG","On my previous foray, I emerged in a castle swarming with voidsent."
32,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000330_VARSHAHNBIG","I was hopelessly outnumbered and forced to turn back. But together, I am confident we can hold our own."
33,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000340_VARSHAHNBIG","Upon our arrival, let us deal with any hostile entities and secure the area."
34,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000350_VARSHAHNBIG","The command of our mission, I leave in your capable hands."
35,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000360_VARSHAHNBIG","In the event of battle, I shall adapt my tactics to complement your own."
36,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000370_YSHTOLA","Should we require healing, I can provide it. 'Twould be a welcome change of pace from my recent havoc wreaking."
37,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000380_VARSHAHNBIG","Take heart, my friends, and have faith. We will brave this broken world and rescue my sister Azdaja!"

43,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000440_YSHTOLA","And not for the first time. He and his brethren must keep watch over the portal."
44,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000450_VARSHAHNBIG","As we do ours. But to unflinchingly consume a fellow voidsent..."
45,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000460_VARSHAHNBIG","Like men, perhaps they form factions and fight amongst themselves."
46,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000470_ESTINIEN","The question is, what will the minions do?"
47,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000480_ESTINIEN","Your mistress is no more, and the one who consumed her we slew in turn. Do you still mean to try us?"
48,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000490_YSHTOLA","I expect some voidsent are more intelligent than others. Perhaps these ones simply do not understand our words."
49,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000500_ESTINIEN","Hmph. Even beasts ought to understand strength."
50,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000510_VARSHAHNBIG","There is much we do not know about voidsent. If we are to survive their world, 'twould be wise to learn their ways."

54,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000520_VARSHAHNBIG","Sage advice, my friend. 'Tis reassuring to have one so experienced with us."
55,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000530_VARSHAHNBIG","If that is your preferred approach, then very well. I shall defer to your adventurer's intuition."
56,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000540_VARSHAHNBIG","I am here, Sister. Finally here. And I will find you─I swear it..."

63,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000580_ESTINIEN","How did it come to be here?"
64,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000590_YSHTOLA","When Zenos died, its connection to the Source was severed. It was forced to return to the void."
65,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000600_VARSHAHNBIG","Zenos? The disgraced prince you yourself laid low?"

74,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000690_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)I was once bound to the man named Zenos."

78,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000730_YSHTOLA","In the name of his hunt, Zenos took up that traditional Garlean art."
79,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000740_YSHTOLA","And through it, he forged a covenant with a being of the void to lend him strength."
80,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000750_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)“Covenant”? A curse, more like. He stole my power. There was no equity in the arrangement."

87,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000820_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)In this world, only a fool would attempt to devour a stronger being."
88,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000830_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)And though it was as an avatar, I lost to you once. I have no desire to lose again."

108,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_000990_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)The sun was driven from the sky as fleeting day yielded to endless night. In time, even land and sea lost their distinction."
109,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_001000_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)And though the spark of reason had died in us, driven by memory's shadow, we formed factions and carved out domains."

114,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_001050_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)As you say, I am voidsent. But only in part."
115,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_001060_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)The Darkness touched my mother when the war had only just begun. When I was still in the womb."
116,"TEXT_VOICEMAN_06200_001070_MYSTERIOUSPERSON","(-Dark-robed Voidsent-)As a child, I looked like any other. But Darkness coursed through me, and I ceased to age when I'd become a woman grown."
