1	0	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000010_ALISAIE	Ah, there you are. You're just in time to welcome our guest...
2	1	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000020_EMETSELCH	Please. Did I not explicitly tell you that we would be meeting again soon?
3	2	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000030_EMETSELCH	Lest you forget, I made you a promise. I have no intention of meddling with your mission. I come only to observe.
4	3	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000040_EMETSELCH	Your Exarch friend in particular has piqued my curiosity. Summoning you all like that. Most impressive.
5	4	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000050_THANCRED	You honestly expect us to believe you've come only to observe? Or that you might deign to lift a finger to aid our cause if called upon?
6	5	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000060_THANCRED	Even if there were a sliver of truth in your words, I would never accept your help. Not in my darkest hour─not after all the suffering your kind has wrought.
7	6	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000070_EMETSELCH	So petty. I meant what I said and I said what I meant.
8	7	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000080_EMETSELCH	Wage your war against the sin eaters. Put each and every Lightwarden to the sword.
9	8	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000090_EMETSELCH	Prove yourselves heroes brave and true, and I will be glad to embrace you as allies.
10	9	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000100_EMETSELCH	Allies worthy of bearing the burden of truth.
11	10	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000110_EMETSELCH	Surely such a partnership would be preferable to yet another round of fisticuffs?
12	11	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000120_EMETSELCH	...And thus did the olive branch wither and die. Pity.
13	12	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000130_EMETSELCH	Well─let no man say I did not try, futile as it was.
14	13	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000140_EMETSELCH	Though I suspect you will seek me out when you grow tired of making the same mistakes.
15	14	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000150_EMETSELCH	Difficult decisions lie ahead of you. Decisions best made with the benefit of knowledge to which only the eternal are privy.
16	15	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000160_EMETSELCH	For now, I shall resume my shadowy vigil. Whatever you choose to do, make sure it's worth watching, would you.
17	16	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000170_ALISAIE	What was that all about?
18	17	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000180_THANCRED	A vain attempt to make us doubt our chosen course, most like. As if we'd believe a word that passed his lips.
19	18	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000190_THANCRED	Unless you think there is some truth in what he says?
20	19	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_Q1_000_001_NONE_VOICE	What will you say?
21	20	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A1_000_001_NONE_VOICE	A kernel, perhaps...
22	21	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A1_000_002_NONE_VOICE	Not one jot.
23	22	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A1_000_003_NONE_VOICE	I don't know. But if he crosses us, I'll make him wish he hadn't.
24	23	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000200_ALPHINAUD	If he simply meant to lead us astray, he could have done so without revealing himself. At least, not in the manner he did.
25	24	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000210_ALPHINAUD	I share your suspicion, of course. But if he simply meant to lead us astray, he could have done so without revealing himself. At least, not in the manner he did.
26	25	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000220_ALPHINAUD	I am sure you will. But consider for a moment: if he meant simply to lead us astray, he could have done so without revealing himself. At least, not in the manner he did.
27	26	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000230_ALPHINAUD	It goes without saying that an alliance with the Ascians is out of the question. But since we have no way of knowing where they might be hiding, it seems only logical to press on with our mission─even if our enemy seems content for it to succeed.
28	27	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000240_MYSTERYVOICE	Then let us discuss the sin eaters.
29	28	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000250_MYSTERYVOICE	I would begin by thanking you all for your efforts thus far.
30	29	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000260_MYSTERYVOICE	In striking down the Lightwardens of Lakeland and Il Mheg, you have accomplished more in your short time here than all of our forces managed in the last century.
31	30	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000270_THANCRED	That may be, but the Wardens of Kholusia, Amh Araeng, and Rak'tika remain.
32	31	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000280_MYSTERYVOICE	Indeed. And their precise whereabouts are as yet unknown.
33	32	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000290_MYSTERYVOICE	Which is why I propose we divide our forces and conduct a systematic survey of each region. Once we have found our quarry, we may then determine how best to proceed.
34	33	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000300_ALISAIE	I'll take Amh Araeng, in that case. I know the lie of the land well enough.
35	34	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000310_ALPHINAUD	If there are no objections, I will make for Kholusia. I have connections there both in and around Eulmore that may prove useful.
36	35	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000320_MYSTERYVOICE	Then I would ask that you journey to Rak'tika.
37	36	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000330_MYSTERYVOICE	There you will find Y'shtola. With her assistance, I doubt the Warden will evade your grasp for long.
38	37	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000340_RYNE	Is Y'shtola the conjurer you and Urianger used to talk about?
39	38	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000350_THANCRED	That's right. Though we haven't spoken much since she left for the forest.
40	39	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000360_MYSTERYVOICE	I fear I may be to blame for that. I had every intention of relaying the news of your arrival, but she is...disinclined to speak with me.
41	40	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000370_MYSTERYVOICE	You have visited her, have you not? Might I trouble you to...?
42	41	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000380_URIANGER	'Twould be no trouble.
43	42	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000390_MYSTERYVOICE	My thanks. While you are all out in the field, I shall be here attending to business. I had somewhat fancifully contemplated joining the search myself, but other matters demand my attention.
44	43	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000400_ALISAIE	What's that?
45	44	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000410_MYSTERYVOICE	A missive from Lord Vauthry. He invites me to join him in Eulmore to discuss the recent conflict at Lydha Lran.
46	45	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000420_ALISAIE	And? Did he even bother to offer any bait? It's obviously a trap.
47	46	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000430_MYSTERYVOICE	I should be surprised if it were not. Nevertheless, I must seize this opportunity to speak with him, even if only a few words are exchanged.
48	47	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000440_MYSTERYVOICE	Though my power will be much diminished so far from the tower, it is a risk I am willing to take.
49	48	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000450_MYSTERYVOICE	Master Alphinaud─might I impose upon you to accompany me to Eulmore, prior to beginning your reconnaissance?
50	49	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000460_ALPHINAUD	Of course.
51	50	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000470_MYSTERYVOICE	Then let us make ready. Safe travels to you all.
52	51	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000480_WARRIOROFDARKNESS	No matter how far he goes, man cannot resist looking back on the path he has walked.
53	52	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000490_WARRIOROFDARKNESS	The untold stories and secrets of the past can be more alluring than the promise of tomorrow.
54	53	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000500_WARRIOROFDARKNESS	And so he braves the forests of Rak'tika in search of mystery and wonder...
55	54	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000510_WARRIOROFDARKNESS	Of Ronka, to which all seekers of hidden truths are inevitably drawn...
56	55	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000520_URIANGER	We have arrived.
57	56	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000530_URIANGER	Vast though these woods may be, they are, by and large, uninhabitable.
58	57	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000540_URIANGER	Not so the swamps of Citia, however, whose sparse foliage permitted man a foothold.
59	58	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000550_EMETSELCH	"No lands must remain beyond our grasp. Go forth. Conquer. Rule.“
60	59	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000560_EMETSELCH	Forgive me. A sudden pang of nostalgia for those halcyon days.
61	60	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000570_EMETSELCH	Exploring virgin territories, subjugating primitive peoples. All for the glory of Garlemald!
62	61	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000580_THANCRED	If you've brought your ivory standard, I'll be happy to tell you where to stick it.
63	62	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000590_EMETSELCH	Can we not simply take a moment to enjoy the view together? Or would you rather I spied on you from the shadows?
64	63	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000600_EMETSELCH	Much more of this, and I may very well begin to regret my show of good faith.
65	64	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000610_RYNE	If...if you really want to stay, then help us fight.
66	65	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000620_EMETSELCH	Mmm... No, I think not. I am an observer─nothing more.
67	66	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000630_EMETSELCH	Even shielded by the shadows of these boughs, I feel the Light's presence most keenly.
68	67	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000640_EMETSELCH	To accompany you is taxing enough. To fight is out of the question.
69	68	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000650_THANCRED	I will suffer your company if I must, but not your commentary.
70	69	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000660_URIANGER	I see little sign of recent activity, nor hath any meaningful progress been made with the reconstruction...
71	70	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000670_URIANGER	Mayhap Y'shtola sought shelter elsewhere. Come, let us quit this place.
72	71	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000680_RUNAR	(-Blessed Leader-)Now! Surround them!
73	72	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000690_RUNAR	(-Blessed Leader-)These sin eaters─they are not like the others!
74	73	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000700_THANCRED	There's a reason for that. Lower your weapons, please. We mean you no harm.
75	74	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000710_PEOPLEOFNIGHTA	How is it they can speak!?
76	75	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000720_PEOPLEOFNIGHTB	It's a sin eater trick! They mean to kill us all!
77	76	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_Q2_000_001_NONE_VOICE	What will you say?
78	77	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A2_000_001_NONE_VOICE	Please! We're not sin eaters!
79	78	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A2_000_002_NONE_VOICE	Uh... Kupo?
80	79	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A2_000_003_NONE_VOICE	...
81	80	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000730_PEOPLEOFNIGHTA	Perhaps they speak the truth.
82	81	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000740_THANCRED	...That will seem a lot less amusing when we are forced to kill them.
83	82	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000750_EMETSELCH	Oh, for the love of...
84	83	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000760_EMETSELCH	I had hoped that by accompanying you, we might come to understand one another, but all I have come to understand is that you have a knack for inflaming the natives.
85	84	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000770_EMETSELCH	You've committed the cardinal sin of *boring* me. And so I retire to the shade.
86	85	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000780_EMETSELCH	Good luck.
87	86	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000790_PEOPLEOFNIGHTA	There! Did you see that one disappear!?
88	87	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000800_THANCRED	(SIGH)
89	88	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000810_THANCRED	I think I preferred Lahabrea.
90	89	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000820_YSHTOLA	(-???-)Enough. Runar, report.
91	90	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000830_RUNAR	Master Matoya!
92	91	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000840_RUNAR	We apprehended them as you ordered, but...are you certain these are sin eaters?
93	92	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000850_YSHTOLA	The intense light of the aether I saw was unmistakable. If not sin eaters, then what?
94	93	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000860_URIANGER	'Tis passing queer that Y'shtola should mistake us for the enemy, is it not?
95	94	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000870_URIANGER	Mayhap it hath been too long since last she beheld the radiance of thine aether...
96	95	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000880_URIANGER	Master Matoya. Hath time truly made strangers of us?
97	96	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000890_YSHTOLA	Nay. I recognize you, Urianger, Thancred. And this is Minfilia of the First, of whom you spoke before.
98	97	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000900_URIANGER	Just so. And knowing as thou must that we come in peace, might I prevail upon thee to have thy comrades lower their arms?
99	98	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000910_YSHTOLA	First explain this other presence in your company. The one I know not.
100	99	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000920_YSHTOLA	There is but one manner of creature in this world whose aether is suffused with such an abundance of light.
101	100	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000930_URIANGER	Mine apologies, Master Matoya, but thou art mistaken. Before thee standeth our dearest comrade. The truest hero among us.
102	101	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000940_URIANGER	Though he is but recently arrived here in the First, not one but *two* Lightwardens have already perished by his most puissant hand.
103	102	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000950_URIANGER	Though she is but recently arrived here in the First, not one but *two* Lightwardens have already perished by her most puissant hand.
104	103	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000960_YSHTOLA	It... It cannot be!
105	104	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_Q3_000_001_NONE_VOICE	What will you say?
106	105	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A3_000_001_NONE_VOICE	It's been too long...clearly.
107	106	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A3_000_002_NONE_VOICE	Nice to see you too...“Master Matoya.”
108	107	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_A3_000_003_NONE_VOICE	You truly thought me a sin eater?
109	108	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000970_RUNAR	Master Matoya?
110	109	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000980_YSHTOLA	Lower your weapons.
111	110	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_000990_YSHTOLA	Forgive us this hostile welcome.
112	111	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001000_YSHTOLA	Come, I would give you a proper introduction to Rak'tika and its people.
113	112	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001010_YSHTOLA	Slitherbough is the largest of the Blessed's settlements.
114	113	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001020_YSHTOLA	They worship no gods, instead revering Darkness itself.
115	114	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001030_YSHTOLA	It is a curious kind of faith, but one which has granted them the strength to persevere in the wake of the Flood.
116	115	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001040_YSHTOLA	I hope you weren't expecting a grand feast by way of welcome. They are a simple people.
117	116	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001050_YSHTOLA	Now, I would hear of your travels away from prying ears. Come.
118	117	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001060_YSHTOLA	I see. And now you seek the Lightwarden of Rak'tika.
119	118	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001070_YSHTOLA	In the days after I arrived in the First, I too relied upon the Crystal Exarch for guidance. But his penchant for secrecy and the telling of half-truths soon lost him my trust. And thus did I strike out on my own.
120	119	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001080_YSHTOLA	My work eventually led me here to the forest, which I have come to know like the back of my hand.
121	120	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001090_YSHTOLA	I cannot say with certainty where your quarry is hiding, but I am confident I can narrow the search.
122	121	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001100_THANCRED	Well...go on, then.
123	122	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001110_YSHTOLA	Some few thousand years ago, this forest stood at the heart of the empire of Ronka.
124	123	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001120_YSHTOLA	A great many relics of that civilization can still be found to the east in Yx'Maja.
125	124	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001130_YSHTOLA	Or rather, *could* be found─were the area not fiercely guarded.
126	125	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001140_YSHTOLA	Yx'Maja, you see, is home to a tribe of warriors whose lineage is said to date back to the time of the empire. Any attempt to enter their territory is met with lethal force. They offer no warnings, and suffer no trespasser to escape.
127	126	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001150_YSHTOLA	Needless to say, my every attempt to survey the area has been thwarted.
128	127	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001160_URIANGER	Mayhap the Warden hideth there full knowing none may approach it for fear of these protectors.
129	128	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001170_YSHTOLA	As for the tablet...
130	129	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001180_YSHTOLA	I find the timing of its discovery suspiciously convenient. If I did not know better, I would think someone was trying to curry favor with me.
131	130	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001190_YSHTOLA	Regardless, it will take time to decipher these writings. Yet I would not be at all surprised if they somehow held the key to entering Yx'Maja unmolested. The Exarch has a nose for serendipity.
132	131	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001200_URIANGER	If there is aught I can do to assist thee in unraveling their secrets, thou need'st only ask.
133	132	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001210_YSHTOLA	Thank you, Urianger. I may well take you up on that offer.
134	133	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001220_YSHTOLA	While we set to work, might I suggest you take a tour of the city?
135	134	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001230_YSHTOLA	Should you be in any doubt as to the importance of your role as the “Warrior of Darkness,” the people here will surely cure you of it.
136	135	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001240_THANCRED	I must say, Y'shtola...while most of us have struggled to come to terms with our altered circumstances, you seem to have adapted rather well.
137	136	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001250_YSHTOLA	Lest you forget, Master Matoya and I dedicated our lives to uncovering the truth which hides at the heart of our world.
138	137	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001260_YSHTOLA	Though separate, the fate of this reflection is nevertheless bound to that of our home. That I would be daunted by such an invaluable opportunity is absurd.
139	138	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001270_YSHTOLA	But what of you, Thancred? Could it be that you are still struggling to “come to terms” with the nature of your young companion?
140	139	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001280_THANCRED	My “struggles” are none of your concern. Quite why you would speak thus─and in *this* company─I do not know. Perhaps you left more of yourself back in the Source than I assumed. If you'll excuse me.
141	140	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001290_RYNE	He understands that I'm not the same. That I'm not her.
142	141	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001300_YSHTOLA	Understands, perhaps, but does not accept. The question being whether he ever will.
143	142	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001310_YSHTOLA	And whether *you* will, more importantly. As difficult as your circumstances may be, they are yours, not his. 'Tis you and you alone who bears ultimate responsibility for your life.
144	143	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001320_YSHTOLA	But you need not make any hard choices now. Why not go and get some fresh air─clear your head?
145	144	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001330_YSHTOLA	It seemed only right that we show our faces. May we join you?
146	145	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001340_RUNAR	Let us begin.
147	146	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001350_RUNAR	I thank you all for coming to pay respects to our fallen daughter of the night. In the light, she was known as Toddia. But in the dark, we shall remember her always as Minnine. Let us each take a moment to offer her our prayers.
148	147	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001360_RUNAR	We entrust her now to the night's sweet embrace.
149	148	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001370_RUNAR	In Darkness will she be free from pain and suffering, now and forevermore.
150	149	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001380_RUNAR	May her soul find peace in the sunless sea of heaven, and in the love we bear for her in our hearts.
151	150	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001390_YSHTOLA	That vessel represents the night sky. The “sunless sea of heaven.”
152	151	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001400_RUNAR	We call upon you now, O Bringer of Shadow, to lead this gentle soul unto the sea. We call upon you, O Warrior of Darkness, to deliver her unto paradise everlasting.
153	152	TEXT_VOICEMAN_05002_001410_YSHTOLA	I am told you assisted in the preparations for the service. On behalf of the Blessed, you have my sincerest thanks.
