4	0	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000010_YDA	We're here! Did we miss anything?
5	1	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000020_ALPHINAUD	We would not presume to begin without you, Yda. Urianger has returned to the Waking Sands, but everyone else is now present.
6	2	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000030_ALISAIE	Yes, but for <Emphasis>what</Emphasis>, exactly? We all have duties to attend to, Alphinaud, so you may dispense with the preamble.
7	3	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000040_ALPHINAUD	Thank you, Alisaie. It is the very subject of those duties which compelled me to call this gathering. Though the Warriors of Darkness no longer pose a threat, Eorzea's many troubles demand no less of our attention.
8	4	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000050_ALPHINAUD	And while I stand by the decision to approach each task as we see fit, I fear our effectiveness will ultimately be diminished should we continue to act in ignorance of each other's efforts. Thus I propose we elect a successor to Minfilia─not to serve as a fully fledged Antecedent, perhaps, but as a coordinator of operations.
9	5	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000060_ALISAIE	Is that all? Then the decision seems clear.
10	6	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000070_ALISAIE	No one else has shown any enthusiasm for the role. And judging by your performance at our previous meeting, you would seem the perfect candidate. You always did have a flair for politics.
11	7	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000080_ALPHINAUD	I-I did not mean to─ That was not my intention.
12	8	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000090_ALPHINAUD	As my tenure as commander of the Crystal Braves comprehensively demonstrated, I lack the qualities required for such an office. I would much prefer to remain as I am now─a soldier in the field, so to speak.
13	9	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000100_YSHTOLA	Should none of our number step forward, must we then constrain some unwilling candidate to take up the position?
14	10	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000110_THANCRED	Well, based on merit alone, a certain adventurer would be my choice─though I concede <If(PlayerParameter(4))>she<Else/>he</If> might struggle to balance <If(PlayerParameter(4))>her<Else/>his</If> new responsibilities with, let me see...slaying primals, thwarting legatuses, and feeding the orphaned poor.
15	11	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000120_PAPALYMO	Thancred makes a good point. Any who would wear such a mantle would be bound by its obligations. Have we not become sufficiently familiar with each other's methods to act without an overseer? At present, I see no cause to so willingly limit one of our number.
16	12	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000130_TATARU	Oh! Oh, my goodness! You're─ Help! I need some help here!
17	13	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000140_ALPHINAUD	Tataru! Are you all right!?
18	14	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000150_TATARU	<Emphasis>Me</Emphasis>!? I'm fine! It's this poor girl who just staggered in and collapsed on the floor that I'm worried about!
19	15	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000160_YDA	Naago!? Gods, how did─ Y'shtola, please, you have to help her!
20	16	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000170_YSHTOLA	Krile, a hand if you would. Let us see about closing these wounds.
21	17	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000180_KRILE	Now, we've staunched the bleeding, but it may be a while before you can move about again. Though, having seen your wounds, I'm surprised you were still moving at all...
22	18	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000190_MNAAGO	Thank you... My message... It was too important to delay.
23	19	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000200_MNAAGO	I took the shortest route I could, though I knew it was more heavily patrolled... As you can see, my efforts at evasion were not entirely successful.
24	20	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000210_YDA	Honestly, you're too brave for your own good! What was so urgent that you needed to fight half the Empire to get here? You could have been killed!
25	21	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000220_MNAAGO	I'm sorry, Yda. I had good reason... Ah, but I imagine your friends are wondering who this bloody mess of a Miqo'te is. My name is M'naago, and I belong to the Ala Mhigan Resistance.
26	22	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000230_MNAAGO	I came to warn Yda and Papalymo about one of our leaders─a man who calls himself the Griffin. He's always been dangerous, but he's planning something new...something reckless.
27	23	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000240_THANCRED	The Griffin, you say? I've heard the name. Rumor has it, your man is eager to test his claws.
28	24	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000250_MNAAGO	Aye, and on no easy target. He means to assault Baelsar's Wall from the Ala Mhigan side.
29	25	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000260_PAPALYMO	But what does the Griffin possibly hope to gain from such an attack?
30	26	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000270_MNAAGO	From what I understand, he wants the fires of war to spread to Eorzea. And for that, he needs to control the border with Gridania.
31	27	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000280_ALPHINAUD	...So he means to spark a conflict between the Alliance and the imperial forces stationed in Ala Mhigo─to have Eorzea's armies aid in the liberation effort, whether they will it or no.
32	28	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000290_PAPALYMO	His plan is flawed. Even should the Resistance succeed in occupying the Wall, they would not be able to hold it. Imperial reinforcements would drive them out within a week!
33	29	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000300_KRILE	Be that as it may, if there is even a chance that this scheme could bring about an escalation in hostilities between Eorzea and the Empire, the Alliance must be informed.
34	30	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000310_YSHTOLA	Agreed. I shall depart for Limsa Lominsa forthwith and seek an audience with the Admiral. Thancred─Ul'dah is yours.
35	31	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000320_YSHTOLA	Alphinaud and Alisaie─make haste to the Twelveswood, and notify the Elder Seedseer of the danger to Gridania. She will duly call a council of the Alliance leaders, whom you must be ready to receive.
36	32	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000330_YSHTOLA	You will be our voice in Ishgard. Explain the situation to Ser Aymeric, and encourage him to send an envoy.
37	33	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000340_YSHTOLA	Tataru, Krile─I leave the care of our injured messenger to you. See that she remains quiescent and her wounds closed.
38	34	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000350_YSHTOLA	I believe that covers everything. Let us be about our tasks.
39	35	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000360_PAPALYMO	I suspect the ill tidings from Gyr Abania will be held as a turning point─the beginning to a bloody end.
40	36	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000370_PAPALYMO	The business of war was ever conducted with the coin of self-sacrifice.
41	37	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000380_PAPALYMO	'Twas Master Louisoix himself who taught us that such costs are not to be ignored or denied.
42	38	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000390_PAPALYMO	And so I shall embrace them. When the time comes, I will make my choice─as you will yours.
43	39	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000400_KANESENNA	I bid you welcome, my friends. As you will by now be aware, the Scions of the Seventh Dawn have come into possession of certain intelligence concerning recent developments in the region of Gyr Abania. It springs, I am assured, from an unimpeachable source─is that not so, Master Alphinaud?
44	40	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000410_ALPHINAUD	Indeed, Elder Seedseer. Our information comes directly from a member of the Resistance's inner circle, and we have no cause to doubt its veracity.
45	41	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000420_RAUBAHN	This “Griffin” of theirs is a fool if he thinks he can hold Baelsar's Wall against the Empire.
46	42	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000430_RAUBAHN	When the imperials move to take it back, they will come in force─and the resulting fighting is all but certain to spill over into the Black Shroud...
47	43	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000440_KANESENNA	At the Battle of Carteneau, the combined might of three Grand Companies labored to contend with the remnants of but a single imperial legion.
48	44	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000450_KANESENNA	Alone, Gridania would be hard-pressed indeed to hold back the tide should the Garleans turn their minds from reclamation to invasion.
49	45	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000460_AYMERIC	May I once more convey my nation's deepest regrets for our inaction in the days prior to the Calamity. 'Tis a stain upon our ledger that I would fain remove.
50	46	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000470_AYMERIC	Elder Seedseer─I do hereby request leave to deploy a defensive force within the borders of Gridania. Ishgard's return to the Alliance shall be honored by more than mere ink upon parchment.
51	47	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000480_YUGIRI	The Doman people, too, would join any effort that weakens our common foe. We are few, but our most seasoned shinobi are at your disposal.
52	48	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000490_KANESENNA	On behalf of my people, I offer you my humble thanks. Gridania welcomes your assistance.
53	49	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000500_RAUBAHN	It is time we set our contingency plans in motion. Is the Alliance agreed?
54	50	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000510_RAUBAHN	Then let us make ready for war. Victory favors the swift, and there is much to be done.
55	51	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000520_ALISAIE	The council knows that Ala Mhigo will not soon be wrested from the Empire, and its decision to bolster the border's defenses seems eminently practical. Why, then, Brother, do you scowl so?
56	52	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000530_ALPHINAUD	I agree that they have chosen the wisest course available. Indeed, the only reasonable one.
57	53	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000540_ALPHINAUD	Yet something feels awry. In making ready for war, is the Alliance not granting the Griffin the very thing he desired? Any attempt to hold the Wall is doomed to failure, aye, but I wonder if we have misjudged the prize for which he plays...
58	54	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000550_ILBERD	<pant> <pant> You've beaten me, aye...
59	55	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000551_ILBERD	But you cannot stop what I've begun. Behold─a glimpse of things to come!
60	56	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000560_SOLDIERA02354	We did it! We showed the bastards!
61	57	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000570_SOLDIERB02354	Aye! Victory is ours!
62	58	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000580_SOLDIERC02354	And who knows, lads? Mayhap the Eorzeans'll finally see sense...when the enemy turns up on their <Emphasis>bloody doorstep</Emphasis>!
63	59	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000590_LAURENTIUS	This is for Ala Mhigo... For Eorzea...
64	60	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000600_LAURENTIUS	They die, that others may live...
65	61	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000610_LAURENTIUS	Vanguards! Attack!
66	62	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000620_SOLDIERC02354	Seven hells, d'ye hear that?
67	63	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000630_SOLDIERB02354	War machines... How did they get here so quickly!?
68	64	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000640_SOLDIERA02354	S-Stand your ground! For the Resistance!
69	65	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000650_SOLDIERC02354	There's nowhere to run! We're cut off!
70	66	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000660_SOLDIERC02354	Aaagh!
71	67	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000670_SOLDIERA02354	Gods help us... What were we thinking? The Empire's too big... Too powerful...
72	68	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000680_SOLDIERA02354	Mighty Rhalgr... Grant us...the <Emphasis>strength</Emphasis>...to crush...our...
73	69	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000690_PAPALYMO	There you are!
74	70	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000700_ALPHINAUD	As you can see, our infiltrators did not elude me for long. Lady Yugiri is sending for an airship even as we speak.
75	71	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000710_YDA	What do we do!? This is a massacre!
76	72	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000720_ILBERD	Heh heh heh heh... How wonderful to see you...<Emphasis>Commander</Emphasis>.
77	73	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000730_ALPHINAUD	Ilberd! I should have known...
78	74	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000740_ALPHINAUD	This has to end! It has to end <Emphasis>now</Emphasis>! Do you not see your countrymen dying? Have your ideals rendered you blind even to that!? Order the retreat, and we will help your soldiers to safety!
79	75	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000750_ILBERD	<Emphasis>Retreat</Emphasis>? With the moment of my triumph so close at hand? You truly are a sheltered child, Leveilleur.
80	76	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000760_ALPHINAUD	Nidhogg's eyes! ...No abyss is too deep for you, I see. But trust me when I say that such power was not meant for mortal hands!
81	77	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000770_ILBERD	How long have I struggled to reach this point! My countrymen so inured to the taste of defeat, they no longer balk at its bitterness. Shouting my throat raw with rallying cries, only to be greeted with dull eyes and blank faces!
82	78	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000780_ILBERD	My “brothers” and “sisters” in Ul'dah have surrendered to their apathy and their appetites. Were it not for the glint of Lolorito's coin, I doubt even those here now would have answered my call!
83	79	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000790_ILBERD	"Take back our homeland! Free Ala Mhigo!“ Hah! They'll happily mouth the words, but they won't spill the blood!
84	80	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000800_ILBERD	You say no mortal should wield these eyes? Then I shall gladly become a demon! I will suckle on the souls of the hopeless, and liberate the homeland they no longer deserve!
85	81	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000810_ALPHINAUD	What exactly do you mean to do...?
86	82	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000820_ILBERD	Did you hear their cries as victory was snatched away from them? Even with their dying breaths they cursed the Empire! Never has their desire for vengeance been so raw, so true! A god has no need of faith when <Emphasis>summoned</Emphasis> by so pure a purpose!
87	83	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000830_PAPALYMO	Summoned!?
88	84	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000840_ALPHINAUD	You cannot mean to fight the Empire with a primal! You know full well the danger─the <Emphasis>futility</Emphasis> of relying on such power!
89	85	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000850_ILBERD	Oh, yes, I know their limitations─which is why I will call upon a deity more terrible than the very black wyrm of the Calamity itself!
90	86	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000860_PAPALYMO	What... Here!? Now!?
91	87	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000870_YDA	Like hells you will!
92	88	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000880_ILBERD	An ending to mark a new beginning...
93	89	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000881_ILBERD	For Ala Mhigo!
94	90	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000890_ILBERD	An ending to mark a new beginning... My pain! My longing! You shall have it all!
95	91	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000891_ILBERD	Hahaha─aaaaaaargh!
96	92	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000900_ALPHINAUD	This light, is it...
97	93	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000910_PAPALYMO	His death completed the ritual. The primal is taking shape.
98	94	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000920_YDA	Well, can't we stop it!? There must be something we can do!
99	95	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000930_PAPALYMO	There is...one thing.
100	96	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000940_YDA	Wha─? Hey! Where do you think you're going!?
101	97	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000950_PAPALYMO	Master Louisoix briefly contained Bahamut by means of a potent spell of sealing. I will now attempt to do the same.
102	98	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000960_ALPHINAUD	But that's impossible! We would need hours to collect the necessary aether, i-if not days!
103	99	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000970_PAPALYMO	Ah, Alphinaud... Though I concede it may not always be apparent, I was ever your grandsire's finest pupil.
104	100	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000980_ALPHINAUD	Tupsimati, of course! The staff still holds enormous power, broken or not.
105	101	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_000990_YDA	Don't you dare, Papalymo! I know how that spell works!
106	102	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001000_YUGIRI	It is time to leave!
107	103	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001010_PAPALYMO	Quite right! Quickly, now! Off you go! The further away the better!
108	104	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001020_YDA	No! If you're staying, then so am I!
109	105	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001030_PAPALYMO	No, Yda! There is a path only you can walk, and it must not end here─not like this!
110	106	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001040_PAPALYMO	Take her! Please, you have to take her!
111	107	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001050_ALPHINAUD	Ugh...
112	108	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001060_YDA	Wha─ No! Damn it, Thancred! Put me down! Thancred!
113	109	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001070_PAPALYMO	This is one battle you cannot fight. Away with you. Go!

115	111	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_A4_000_001_NONE_VOICE	Trust in Papalymo and leave on the airship.
116	112	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_A4_000_002_NONE_VOICE	Stay at Papalymo's side.
117	113	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001080_THANCRED	Hilda! I think he means now!
118	114	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001090_PAPALYMO	I bid thee farewell again, my dear Yda...
119	115	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001091_PAPALYMO	Now, let us see how good a student I truly was...
120	116	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001100_GOSETSU	(-Towering Traveler-)A word if you would, good sir. This place, it is within the realm of Eorzea?
121	117	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001110_PASSER02356	You're an odd-looking fellow, aren't you? Still...takes all sorts, I s'pose. This here's Vesper Bay─“Thanalan's door to the ocean,” as some folk like to call it...
122	118	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001120_GOSETSU	(-Towering Traveler-)Am I to understand from your answer that I have indeed arrived in Eorzea?
123	119	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001130_PASSER02356	Eh? ...Yes. You're in Eorzea.
124	120	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001140_GOSETSU	(-Towering Traveler-)Ah, a plain response at last! And the one I wanted, at that! My journey was not without its hardships, and I would sooner travel by land than put to sea again!
125	121	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001150_GOSETSU	(-Towering Traveler-)You do not believe that so small a bark could bear me across the ocean? Such timid little sailors! I had but to set my course, then set my jaw till I made port!

127	123	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001170_GOSETSU	(-Towering Traveler-)Though...'twould perhaps have been wise to lay down my oars a moment to sup on more than the spray of brinewater. By the trembling of my limbs, I sense a brief repast may be in order...
128	124	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001180_GOSETSU	(-Towering Traveler-)Nay! I will not hearken to the feeble grumblings of an empty belly! Duty comes before all!
129	125	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001190_PASSER02356	Good gods, man! Are you all right?
130	126	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001200_URIANGER	Thou art far indeed from home, friend...
131	127	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001210_KANESENNA	Dear friends...pray accept my heartfelt thanks for your efforts in defense of Gridania's borders. I would fain dwell longer on my gratitude for the support of the Alliance, but the situation at Baelsar's Wall demands that we forgo such pleasantries.
132	128	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001220_BODYGUARD01623	According to our most recent intelligence, the cocoon of light that formed in the air above the Wall remains undimmed and unbroken.
133	129	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001230_BODYGUARD01623	After measuring the cocoon's aetheric concentrations, Archon Y'shtola has confirmed the presence of a primal entity...
134	130	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001240_RAUBAHN	Hmph. So we must assume that Ilberd's thrice-damned god is indeed trapped within. And what news of the imperials? They are not like to ignore such a spectacle.
135	131	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001250_BODYGUARD01623	Sir. A Garlean airship was observed making an approach, but the vessel was destroyed when it drew near. The Empire appears to have made no subsequent attempts to reach the object.
136	132	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001260_KANESENNA	The soldiers who witnessed the incident spoke of a “lance of light” issuing from within the cocoon. Of an entire warship being reduced to smoking ruin in the space of a moment...

138	134	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001280_ALISAIE	We could face another Calamity...
139	135	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001290_ALPHINAUD	So the primal is awake, then? Contained, yes, but for how long? We must destroy it now, lest it break free!
140	136	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001300_CID	Agreed. There is, however, the small matter of how to get close enough to a being that swats warships from the sky as you would a bothersome gnat...
141	137	TEXT_VOICEMAN_03500_001310_NERO	(-???-)Is this truly so complex a puzzle? Or have you no <Emphasis>stomach</Emphasis> for the obvious solution?
