40TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000010_AYMERICTo think the moogles would prove such harsh taskmasters! Forgive me, I did not know you had suffered so in your quest for the horn.
51TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000020_AYMERICI must say, your spirited accounts always come as a welcome change from the arid reports which fill my days.
62TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000030_AYMERICThough I have lived in these lands my entire life, to hear you speak of them, there is much and more I have yet to see. Truly, yours was a marvelous journey.
73TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_Q1_000_001_NONE_VOICEWhat will you say?
84TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_A1_000_001_NONE_VOICEThough perhaps a bit long for my liking.
95TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_A1_000_002_NONE_VOICEWhy not join me on the next?
106TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_A1_000_003_NONE_VOICEIt wasn't all sunshine and lemoncakes.
117TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000040_AYMERICLong <Emphasis>and</Emphasis> arduous, aye. Not unlike the journey that Ishgard has at last embarked upon─thanks to the efforts of you and yours.
128TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000050_AYMERICHah! Well...truth be told, when I think back on the sweeping vistas of the Churning Mists, I do feel some slight pangs of wanderlust...
139TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000060_AYMERICAlas, much as I would like to accept your invitation, I fear my present duties with the House of Lords demand my undivided attention. Someday, perhaps.
1410TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000070_AYMERICNor would I presume to imply otherwise. Neither I nor any man alive can truly understand what you have endured, and I cannot say with any confidence that I would have acquitted myself as well under the circumstances─much less grown stronger for it.
1511TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000080_AYMERICBy your deeds, you have helped us to lay the foundation for lasting reform.
1612TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000090_AYMERICThe formation of the republic is but the beginning, for it is not only our system of governance which must needs change. We the people must learn to let go of our hatreds and rise above our bloody past.
1713TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000100_AYMERICI only pray that I live long enough to see us achieve some measure of success─that I might know the lost did not die in vain.
1814TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000110_AYMERICI can still see you there, on the Steps of Faith, striding fearlessly towards the wyrm... If you could do that, who are we to balk at the challenges ahead?
1915TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000120_AYMERICThe question of how best to strengthen ties with the other great nations of Eorzea has been debated at length in the Lords and Commons of late.
2016TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000130_AYMERICAs you may imagine, maintaining stability during this period of historic upheaval is our paramount concern. Nevertheless, we are greatly indebted to the Alliance for their support during the grand melee, and it would be remiss of us not to repay their faith in kind.
2117TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000140_AYMERICOf course, we owe you the greatest debt of all, and it is my hope that in extending our support to you and the Scions, we might also express our gratitude to our neighbors─nay, our fellow Eorzeans, whom we pray you will continue to protect.
2218TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000150_AYMERICThe Lords and Commons agree on very little, but not a soul in either house begrudges your order this offer of patronage. For all you have done and will do, we thank you.
2319TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000160_AYMERIC...May I ask a personal question?
2420TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000170_AYMERICNow that the dust has settled, what will you do? Not as a Scion, I mean, but...what do you want for yourself?
2521TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000180_MESSENGER02341Lord Commander, pray forgive the interruption!
2622TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000190_AYMERICNews from House Fortemps?
2723TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000200_MESSENGER02341An urgent message for the Warrior of Light. I was instructed to deliver it without delay.
2824TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000210_MESSENGER02341Master Thancred returned to the manor a short time ago, bearing an injured maiden.
2925TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000220_MESSENGER02341Master Leveilleur and Mistress Tataru are tending to her wounds, but they like not her chances. Respectfully, my lord─they have requested the Warrior of Light's immediate presence.
3026TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000230_AYMERICYou must go to them, my friend. And I shall go with you.
3127TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000240_PAPALYMOFor every ending marks a new beginning.
3228TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000250_PAPALYMOFrom tragedy and sacrifice we rise to greet a new dawn. As did <If(PlayerParameter(4))>she<Else/>he</If>.
3329TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000260_PAPALYMOOnly to be drawn unto another battlefield, another cause, as if by fate...
3430TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000270_ALISAIETh...As─ Ugh... <gasp>
3531TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000280_AYMERICIs that...?
3632TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000290_THANCREDAlisaie, Alphinaud's twin sister.
3733TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000300_THANCREDShe ran afoul of the Warriors of Darkness.
3834TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000310_THANCREDI had been tracking them since the ceremony at Falcon's Nest. Little did I know I was not the only one.
3935TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000320_THANCREDEvidently she had learned of their activities and attempted to shadow them on her own. Poorly.
4036TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000330_THANCREDI rescued her in the Twelveswood, and together we fled north. But though I made every effort to cover our tracks, they caught up with us on the Ishgardian border, and in the ensuing struggle, Alisaie took an arrow to the shoulder. 'Twas only after we had made good our escape that I realized it was poisoned...
4137TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000340_ALPHINAUDThank you for coming so quickly. And you, Ser Aymeric.
4238TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000350_AYMERICThink nothing of it. How is she?
4339TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000360_ALPHINAUDWe have done all we can for now. Although the immediate danger has passed, the poison yet lingers in her blood...
4440TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000370_ALPHINAUDWe came to Eorzea together, hoping to bring salvation to the realm our grandfather gave his life to protect.
4541TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000380_ALPHINAUDBut when confronted with the bitter realities of its politics and its petty powermongers, she was driven to anger─and to doubt.
4642TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000390_ALPHINAUDShe refused to become embroiled in what she termed Eorzea's “squabbles,” and distanced herself from the Scions.
4743TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000400_ALPHINAUDThough she remained hopeful of a brighter future, she would walk her own path. Would that it had not been so perilous...
4844TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000410_ALPHINAUDFor all our differences, she is as dedicated as any Scion to the salvation of Eorzea. But more than that, she is my sister...
4945TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000420_ALPHINAUDTo be reunited with her, only to lose her forever... Gods, even to speak the words...
5046TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000430_AYMERICTake heart, Master Alphinaud. She will be attended by our most skilled chirurgeons.
5147TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000440_AYMERICBear Mistress Leveilleur to the infirmary at once. Apprise Captain Whitecape of the situation, and inform him that she is to be treated as my personal charge.
5248TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000450_ALISAIEW-Wait... D-Don't go... Please, come closer...
5349TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000460_ALISAIEAlphinaud... Is the Warrior of Light... Is <If(PlayerParameter(4))>she<Else/>he</If> with you? D-Don't go...there is something I must say...
5450TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000470_ALISAIEThe Warriors of Darkness are in league with the Ascians... Slaughtering the primals is but the first step in their plan...
5551TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000480_ALISAIEThey make for Xelphatol to bring about Garuda's summoning... And to kill her...
5652TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000490_ALISAIEYou must... You must stop them...
5753TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000500_TATARUI...I shall inform the others at once!
5854TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000510_AYMERICMaster Thancred─I would ask that you accompany Mistress Leveilleur to the infirmary. Your knowledge of her injuries may well prove useful in determining her treatment.
5955TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000520_THANCREDOf course.
6056TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000530_ALPHINAUDThank the gods! What happened?
6157TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000540_ALPHINAUDSo they were unable to see the ritual to its completion... Then Garuda is no longer a threat, and whatever the Ascians and the Warriors of Darkness were planning has come to naught...
6258TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000550_ALPHINAUDBut we should not tarry. The knights have secured our path to safety.
6359TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000560_PALADINOFDARKNESS(-???-)Well, well... What do we have here? You'd better not have killed the primal without us!
6460TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000570_ALPHINAUD<Emphasis>You</Emphasis>!
6561TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000580_BARDOFDARKNESSWait, I know you! Still walking, I see. I could have <Emphasis>sworn</Emphasis> my aim was true...
6662TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000590_PALADINOFDARKNESSJust what is your game? Leading us the long way, so these fools could step in and claim our prize?
6763TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000600_WHITEMAGEOFDARKNESSNow, now. Let's not make hasty accusations. By the look of things, the ritual was proceeding as planned.
6864TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000610_WHITEMAGEOFDARKNESSWe arrived at the appointed hour. 'Twas they who erred.
6965TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000620_ALPHINAUDIt is hopeless. We cannot face them all...
7066TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000630_BARDOFDARKNESSDo mine ears deceive? A <Emphasis>boy</Emphasis>! So <Emphasis>that's</Emphasis> the way of it. Twins! You had me worried for a moment there.
7167TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000640_BARDOFDARKNESSKnow that I will happily make it quicker for you...if you just stand still.
7268TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000650_WARRIOROFDARKNESSEnough, J'rhoomale. We wouldn't want to upset the man in white with any unnecessary bloodshed, now would we?
7369TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000660_WARRIOROFDARKNESSYou've been awfully busy since we were kind enough to spare your lives.
7470TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000670_ALPHINAUDWhile you were <Emphasis>idly</Emphasis> consorting with the Ascians, you mean? Seven hells! What could you possibly hope to achieve!?
7571TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000680_WARRIOROFDARKNESSShould I explain it to you? Very well. Consider it a reward of sorts for beating us here.
7672TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000690_WARRIOROFDARKNESSYou know the tale of Hydaelyn and Zodiark, I take it. Of the great sundering, and the reflections it created?
7773TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000700_ALPHINAUDAcross ten and three they were divided. Reflections of the Source, each possessed of shards of Light and Dark...
7874TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000710_WARRIOROFDARKNESSJust so. One of those reflections─the one nearest to the Source─is our home. And we were the heroes blessed with Her Light.
7975TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000720_WARRIOROFDARKNESSBut not all worlds hold Light and Dark in equal measure. In ours, the power of Light was greater by far.
8076TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000730_WARRIOROFDARKNESSSo the Ascians who once threatened our home were no match, and they fell before us, one after another, till none were left. Victory, we thought...
8177TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000740_WARRIOROFDARKNESS...And then came the Light─a flood of pure, blinding radiance, annihilating shadow and color and <Emphasis>life itself</Emphasis>. Ere long, it will consume our world, leaving naught in its wake but blank perfection.
8278TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000750_ALPHINAUDThat─ That cannot be! Do you honestly expect us to believe such a story!?
8379TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000760_WARRIOROFDARKNESSBelieve what you like. But it has happened before, on a world far removed from ours. The Thirteenth, which was swallowed by the Dark, and transformed into what you call the void.
8480TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000770_WARRIOROFDARKNESSUnchallenged Light would condemn us to a similar fate. And so we joined hands with our former enemies, and with their aid came here...to the Source.
8581TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000780_WARRIOROFDARKNESSFor there is but one way to restore the balance and save our home: the Ardor. Calamitous destruction with the power to break down the barriers between planes, and see our worlds rejoined.
8682TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000790_ALPHINAUDYou would doom our world to save your own!? What would even become of us? Of you?
8783TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000800_WARRIOROFDARKNESSEnough. I tire of talking.
8884TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000810_WARRIOROFDARKNESSYou know our cause. You know what is at stake. We are prepared to do whatever it takes! Are you?
8985TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000820_ALPHINAUDIf there is aught you would say, say it. Otherwise, begone. You have no friends here.
9086TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000830_ALPHINAUDAlisaie! How are you feeling?
9187TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000840_ALISAIEWell enough, Brother, thanks to the kindness of our hosts.
9288TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000850_ALISAIEThey told me you had departed for Xelphatol while I was still abed. I slept much better knowing that. Thank you.
9389TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000860_ALISAIEWhen they told me you had departed for Xelphatol, I found that I could rest. The outcome seemed a mere formality, as did your safe return. Thank you, my friend.
9490TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000870_YSHTOLAI take it your mission was a success?
9591TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000880_THANCRED...As if we needed any further confirmation that they are in league with the Ascians.
9692TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000890_THANCRED...But to <Emphasis>save another world</Emphasis>? I think not.
9793TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000900_ALPHINAUDI too thought his story fanciful at first. But it is possible there may be a kernel of truth in all of this. At the very least, none of his claims contradict the Word's account.
9894TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000910_YSHTOLAYou were following these people, Alisaie. Why?
9995TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000920_ALISAIEDuring my travels, I had oft enjoyed tales of the Scions and their exploits. But after a time, I began to hear whispers of a gifted, and theretofore unknown, band of adventurers.
10096TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000930_ALISAIEAdventurers who had supposedly sworn to travel the realm slaying primals in the Scions' stead.
10197TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000940_ALPHINAUDThe Warriors of Darkness... And in the course of investigating these rumors, you stumbled upon the Ascians' involvement.
10298TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000950_ALISAIEYes. Exactly.
10399TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000960_AYMERICForgive me, but if these Warriors of Darkness mean to bring about another Calamity, to what end do they hunt primals?
104100TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000970_ALISAIETo prompt an escalation. To deepen the beast tribes' feelings of helplessness and despair, and thereby drive them to summon ever more powerful gods.
105101TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000980_ALISAIEAnd lest we forget, these events do not occur in isolation. With their patron deities being slain left and right, the news of man's victory over Nidhogg must surely have sown panic in the minds of the beastmen. 'Tis no wonder they wish to defend themselves.
106102TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_000990_AYMERICPower answered with greater power, death with more death. A vicious cycle fueled by fear and hatred. I know its like all too well.
107103TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001000_ALISAIEIndeed. The Ascians sow discord and desperation, and the Warriors of Darkness reap the harvest. And so it continues.
108104TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001010_ALISAIEYet that is not the extent of their ambitions. The Ascian himself observed that once the powerless realize that the old gods have failed them, they will have little recourse but to look to a new one.
109105TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001020_YSHTOLA...We cannot let that happen.
110106TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001030_THANCREDIt should come as no surprise, but Alisaie and I have uncovered evidence that the Ascians have been manipulating certain parties to ensure that a constant stream of crystals flows into the hands of the beast tribes.
111107TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001040_THANCREDIf we sever these supply lines, we should at least be able to slow the escalation.
112108TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001050_YSHTOLAAgreed. Krile and I shall journey to Xelphatol and learn what we can of the Ixal's source.
113109TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001060_AYMERICHm. Then I, for my part, pledge to lead a similar investigation into the origin of the Gnath's supply.
114110TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001070_ALPHINAUDSer Aymeric?
115111TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001080_AYMERICAs a member of the Eorzean Alliance, Ishgard is honor bound to play an active role in maintaining the security of the realm. You might also say that I have some personal motivation, given the Ascians dealings with my father.
116112TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001090_AYMERICHowever, I make no secret of the fact that my knowledge of primal beings is scant at best. As such, I should be most grateful if one of your order were to assist me.
117113TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001100_THANCREDAllow me, Ser Aymeric. I have dealt with the Gnath before.
118114TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001110_ALPHINAUDLet us consult with Urianger, then. Given his dedication to the study of primal beings, I should be surprised if he could not tell us something of value.
119115TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001120_ALISAIEAllow me to accompany you, Brother. And before you think to refuse, know that I am not the girl I once was. I shall not be a burden─you have my word.
120116TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001130_ALPHINAUDBut Alisaie, you...
121117TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001140_ALPHINAUD...You are more than welcome. After all, it was you who set us upon this path.
122118TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001150_TATARUWait a minute! I'm afraid I can't allow you to leave just yet─not until you try on the new outfit I prepared for you!
123119TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001160_ALISAIEWho goes there?
124120TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001170_ALISAIEOh, it's you. Forgive me for straying from the camp.
125121TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001180_ALISAIEHe hasn't been feeling too welcome, to say the least. I thought a change of scenery might do him good, but, alas...
126122TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001190_ALISAIEIt's so quiet out here. The stars spread out before us, beckoning across time and space...
127123TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001200_ALISAIE"Dawn may banish even the darkest night.“ How bitterly beautiful, those words.
128124TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001210_ALISAIEI should be stronger for all my experiences, yet my heart aches more than ever.
129125TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001220_ALISAIEI never understood why Grandfather gave his life that day. I thought that, if I came here, I would find the answers I needed. But when I finally laid eyes on the land he sacrificed everything to save, saw firsthand the bickering, the pettiness...
130126TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001230_ALISAIEI was disappointed. I was <Emphasis>angry</Emphasis>. I could not fathom how these people were more deserving of his love than his family...than me...
131127TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001240_ALISAIENevertheless, I had to believe he had good reason. I was determined to uncover the whole truth of the Calamity, and perhaps in so doing find my own purpose in this sea of chaos.
132128TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001250_ALISAIEBut when Grandfather revealed the whole truth of the Calamity to us, I finally understood. And I resolved there and then to continue his legacy in my own way.
133129TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001260_ALISAIEMy travels have been enlightening, but I cannot say that I have enjoyed them. I have lost count of the many petty crises that I was helpless to resolve, and of the people whose actions I could not understand.
134130TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001270_ALISAIEThere were others, of course. Good people. People with whom I felt a kinship...whose lives I could not save.
135131TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001280_ALISAIEI found myself asking what it was all for. Why try if I was doomed to fail in the end? But then I recalled Grandfather's words to my father, years ago, before he left Sharlayan behind forever.
136132TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001290_ALISAIE"To ignore the plight of those one might conceivably save is not wisdom─it is indolence. We must all protect that which we hold most dear in the manner of our own choosing.“
137133TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001300_ALISAIE...We have to try, do we not?
138134TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001310_ALISAIEOf course, it's one thing to try and another to do. There were times while I was tracking the Warriors of Darkness when I faltered─when I was afraid. But then I thought of my brother, of Urianger...
139135TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001320_ALISAIEOf course, it's one thing to try and another to do. There were times while I was tracking the Warriors of Darkness when I faltered─when I was afraid. But then I thought of my brother, of Urianger, of you...
140136TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001330_ALISAIEAh, pray forgive me. This conversation has been rather one-sided, hasn't it. Mayhap you could recount some of your adventures in Ishgard?
141137TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_Q2_000_001_NONE_VOICEWhat will you say?
142138TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_A2_000_001_NONE_VOICEI traveled far and wide with two companions, Estinien and Ysayle, who were very...
143139TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_A2_000_002_NONE_VOICEUnder some rather unique circumstances, I had the pleasure to fight alongside Ser Aymeric...
144140TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_A2_000_003_NONE_VOICEWhen Alphinaud and I came at last to the Dravanian hinterlands...
145141TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001340_ALISAIEGods, they must have been at each other's throats from dawn till dusk...
146142TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_001350_ALISAIEI daresay you managed to keep the peace, though. Merely being in the presence of the Warrior of Light is surely enough to shame <Emphasis>anyone</Emphasis> into behaving.

293289TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_002820_URIANGERYet I knew from the beginning that this salvation would not come without sacrifice, for the instrument of the First's deliverance would of necessity be required to journey thither...there to remain, mayhap forever.

301297TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_002900_MINFILIA(-Minfilia-)Long have I watched you from Hydaelyn's side. Watched as you nurtured and kept safe the light of the dawn.
302298TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_002910_MINFILIA(-Minfilia-)The dark recesses of the world hide untold secrets and dangers. Thus do I entrust to you Tupsimati. I pray you keep to the path that you may never have need of it.

306302TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_002950_WARRIOROFDARKNESSWe were blind to the truth once. So I tell you this, as one fool to another. Light, Dark, it doesn't matter. What matters is how you choose to use them.
307303TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_002960_WARRIOROFDARKNESSWe made our choice, and you see what came of it. So please...forge a different path. Seize a better fate.
308304TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_002970_MINFILIA(-Minfilia-)'Tis a strange feeling. So many times have I watched you depart, my heart filled with worry, and ever did you return to me in triumph.

315311TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_003040_ALPHINAUDBut, as Papalymo rightly said, much has changed since we last stood here. The Scions of the Seventh Dawn are not as they once were. Nor should we be.
316312TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_003050_ALPHINAUDOur travels in the north brought us into contact with a host of fine and generous people, and their selfless deeds served to show me that it is not lofty causes that should inform our actions, but our hearts.
317313TEXT_VOICEMAN_03400_003060_ALPHINAUDAnd I hope that the Scions might continue in this manner: as individuals driven by individual principles. Provided we all sincerely desire to work towards Eorzea's salvation, I believe the paths we follow to achieve it need not─and should not─be dictated by any single ideal.
