21TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000020_ELIDIBUSWhy am I...? Was it you who called me here?
32TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000030_LAHABREA(-Convocation Speaker-)**On behalf of the Convocation, I bid you welcome to our order.
43TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000040_LAHABREA(-Convocation Speaker-)**At times you will stand with us. At times you will stand against us. All that you might steer mankind and the very star upon their true course.
54TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000050_LAHABREA(-Convocation Speaker-)**For yours is the seat of Elidibus, the emissary, and by this name shall your every action be guided.
65TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000060_ELIDIBUSSo you peered into my memories... No matter. You will have found little of import.
76TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000070_ELIDIBUSBut I see you intended to summon me here no more than I intended to come. The fault is mine.
87TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000080_ELIDIBUSSuch is the burden of hope...
98TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_Q1_000_001_NONE_VOICEWhat will you say?

1312TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000090_ELIDIBUSWhat fool would relinquish his weapon on the eve of battle?

1514TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000110_ELIDIBUSCome now, my plans are no mystery.
1615TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000120_ELIDIBUSThat which I do is no different from that which you have done so many times, Warrior of Darkness.
1716TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000130_ELIDIBUSI arm myself. I hone my skills. I make ready to vanquish my enemy─you.
1817TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000140_ELIDIBUSYou who have murdered my brothers─who have taken their selfless labors in service to the one true world and turned them to ash.
1918TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000150_ELIDIBUSI see you for what you are. You are death, and only in death shall you serve any purpose.
2019TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000160_ELIDIBUSThe Convocation charged me to steer mankind and the very star upon their true course. As Elidibus, it is my duty. And I shall see it done.
2120TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000170_ELIDIBUSI will strike you down...
2221TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000180_ELIDIBUSDestroy you body and soul. All else must wait.

2524TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000210_ELIDIBUSOne last matter.
2625TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000220_ELIDIBUSI bore witness to your final struggle with Emet-Selch. It seemed as if he saw something familiar in you.
2726TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000230_ELIDIBUSAs if he mistook you for another.
2827TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_Q2_000_001_NONE_VOICEWhat will you say?
2928TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_A2_000_001_NONE_VOICEHythlodaeus called me his “new old friend.”
3029TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_A2_000_002_NONE_VOICE...
3130TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000240_ELIDIBUS...No. I recall not of whom he spoke.
3231TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000250_ELIDIBUSKeep your counsel, then. You spare me further frustration. As often as we have met, you have never once awakened any memory within me.
3332TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000260_ELIDIBUSMayhap I never knew you. Or mayhap it is another fragment lost.
3433TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000270_MYSTERYVOICE(-???-)Ah, I wasn't aware you already had a guest. If the conversation is constructive, I shall not intrude.
3534TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000280_MYSTERYVOICEBut if you seek to stir up trouble, Elidibus, then I must insist you leave at once.

3736TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000300_ELIDIBUSThough you lack Her blessing, your soul is surprisingly dense... Hmph.
3837TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000310_MYSTERYVOICEWorry not, I seem to be unharmed.
3938TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000320_MYSTERYVOICEOh, this... This is my own doing─the consequence of my recent exertions.
4039TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000330_MYSTERYVOICEIt is the tower's way of compensating me for the demands I have placed on it.
4140TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000340_MYSTERYVOICERest assured, it is no great inconvenience at present. Indeed, I told Beq Lugg as much...but they would not be persuaded, and sent me away to rest.
4241TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000350_MYSTERYVOICENo need to make a fuss. Strange as it may sound, I consider it something of a badge of honor.
4342TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000360_MYSTERYVOICEOne of the brave souls who saw me delivered unto the First once said...
4443TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000370_MYSTERYVOICEThat the world shall ever have a place for tales of heroism, so long as we have need of inspiration in our lives.
4544TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000380_MYSTERYVOICEThough he and his fellows had no way of knowing whether their mad scheme would amount to anything, they knew that the attempt alone would inspire hope. Or so they hoped.
4645TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000390_MYSTERYVOICEA more optimistic lot, one would be hard-pressed to find.
4746TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000400_MYSTERYVOICEThey said they would find a means to save our godsforsaken world─just as soon as they had sent me on my way. Said it with such confidence that, for a fleeting moment, I half believed them.
4847TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000410_MYSTERYVOICESuch faith, such courage in the face of unrelenting despair. For a long time, it was more than I could bear to remember them.
4948TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000420_MYSTERYVOICEBut having come this far─having sent full many on their way myself─I see things more clearly.
5049TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000430_MYSTERYVOICETo take action is to hope. To believe─to *choose* to believe is to take the first step towards a brighter future.
5150TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000440_MYSTERYVOICEAnd why do I tell you this? Because I want you to indulge me in a little recklessness.
5251TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000450_MYSTERYVOICENeedless to say, I have a plan. And...when all is said and done, I will ask yet another favor of you.
5352TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000460_RYNEYou're both here! Thank goodness!
5453TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000470_MYSTERYVOICEWhat's wrong?
5554TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000480_RYNEIt's Thancred! He's collapsed!
5655TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000490_TATARUExcuse us...
5756TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000500_TATARUThis way.

6059TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000530_KRILEI would rather you hadn't seen this.
6160TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000540_TATARUI'm sorry. We have urgent tidings...
6261TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000550_KRILENo, no, I'm not angry with you. On the contrary.
6362TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000560_KRILEI know full well how hard everyone has been searching for a way to return home. And I had hoped to afford you the time you needed.
6463TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000570_KRILEBut given our friends' present state, perhaps it was for the best that you came.
6564TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000580_KRILEStiff and cold, all of them. As if they were made of wax.
6665TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000590_KRILEBarely alive at all.
6766TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000600_KRILEAnd they had been doing so well. Save for occasional signs of aetheric instability, they appeared to be in passable health.
6867TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000610_KRILEThen, quite without warning, things took a turn for the worse. A change for which even Master Matoya could offer no explanation.
6968TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000620_KRILEShe could only remind me that the soul is yet an unknown frontier, and that much and more lies beyond our ken.
7069TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000630_KRILEBut let's not lose heart just yet. At times like these, it is all the more important that we remain positive.
7170TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000640_KRILEWhy, I but this moment succeeded in quelling a fluctuation in Thancred's aether.
7271TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000650_KRILEAnd while the others have weakened, they have remained relatively stable. I believe I may leave my post for a moment.
7372TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000660_KRILESo come, let me hear your tale outside.
7473TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000670_ALPHINAUDForgive the delay.
7574TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000680_THANCREDWe have visited every region and confirmed the presence of Ascians throughout the realm.
7675TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000690_URIANGERLest a grave predicament be made to seem hopeless, it should be noted that they are of inferior rank. The black-masked minions who answer to the red.
7776TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000700_THANCREDYes. A gaggle of schemers attempting to exploit recent events to sow the seeds of petty conflict.
7877TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000710_THANCREDFortunately, nothing of any great concern has come of their meddling just yet.
7978TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000720_ALISAIEWe also encountered a number of the Crystarium's former defenders, busily solving this problem and that in a bid to become Warriors of Light.
8079TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000730_MYSTERYVOICETheir zeal is to be applauded. 'Tis but a pity I cannot encourage them on their course...
8180TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000740_THANCREDNot knowing Elidibus set them upon it, no. Both the troubles to be solved and the villains to be vanquished are his doing too, like as not.
8281TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000750_THANCREDAnd so, with apologies to the aspiring Warriors of Light, I believe it best that we deal with the Ascians quickly and quietly.
8382TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000760_MYSTERYVOICEI quite agree.
8483TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000770_ALPHINAUDBut tell us, what news from the Source? How fare our bodies?
8584TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_Q3_000_001_NONE_VOICEWhat will you say?
8685TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_A3_000_001_NONE_VOICEUh...well enough─though time is not on our side.
8786TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_A3_000_002_NONE_VOICEI'm sorry, but...things have taken a turn for the worse.
8887TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000780_ALPHINAUDIndeed. Heartening though it is to know we can stay awhile longer, returning home must remain our priority.
8988TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000781_ALISAIEThis seems an appropriate moment to ask about the spirit vessel. Have you made any progress?
9089TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000790_ALPHINAUD...Oh dear. Then we must redouble our efforts! Not that we have ever stinted in that regard...
9190TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000800_ALISAIEThis would seem an appropriate moment to ask about the spirit vessel. Tell me you've made some progress.
9291TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000810_BEQLUGGWe have, as it happens. One moment.
9392TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000820_URIANGERThe red stones... Then this doth mean...
9493TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000830_BEQLUGGFor the benefit of all, permit us to explain.
9594TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000840_BEQLUGGAs you will recall, using white auracite as our starting point, we fashioned a vessel for mind and memory both.
9695TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000850_BEQLUGGYet though it served this purpose admirably, the process of imbuing it with one's complete essence proved a somewhat thornier proposition.
9796TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000860_BEQLUGGSimply put, the memory would not accompany the mind. And so we looked to the Allagans' mastery of memory transference for a solution.
9897TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000870_MYSTERYVOICEThis approach was not without its own complications, however, relying as it does upon blood─which inanimate objects notably do not possess.
9998TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000880_MYSTERYVOICEWe duly explored methods of suffusing the vessel with drops of the aforementioned. Alas, our painstaking experimentation succeeded only in making me feel faint, and singularly failed to imbue the crystal with the necessary properties.
10099TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000890_MYSTERYVOICEIt was then that an idea occurred to me: namely, that we might fuse the vessel not with normal blood, but with my crystallized essence.
101100TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000900_ALISAIEYou're doing this for our sakes, so far be it from us to complain...
102101TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000910_ALISAIEBut don't think we haven't noticed what's happening to your arm.
103102TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000920_MYSTERYVOICEIt falls well short of offering up my life in exchange for yours─which was your only stipulated prohibition, as I recall. And it is but a small price to pay for delivering you home.
104103TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000930_BEQLUGGAssuming it works.
105104TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000940_BEQLUGGWe shall soon know if this grisly addition will serve as a suitable conduit for the subject's memory. Though...not soon enough to warrant your waiting. The test is like to take a while.
106105TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000950_THANCREDLet us be off, then. We have Ascians to attend to, among other things.
107106TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000960_ALISAIEForgive me, but I count *six* vessels. And there are only five of us.
108107TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000970_MYSTERYVOICEOne is for testing purposes. I will personally use it to see whether the crystal functions as it should.
109108TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000980_ALISAIEAnd...if it does, wouldn't that mean that your soul could also return to the Source?
110109TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_000990_MYSTERYVOICEYes. In theory, at least.
111110TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001000_MYSTERYVOICEBut there is a distinct difference between your circumstances and mine. While your corporeal forms want for souls, my past self does not.
112111TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001010_MYSTERYVOICEMayhap our essences would blend. Or mayhap they would curdle. There is no telling what might occur.
113112TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001020_ALISAIEAnd you'd be willing to take that risk?
114113TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001030_MYSTERYVOICEI would.
115114TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001040_ALISAIEI see.
116115TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001050_ELIDIBUSExcellent. I had intended to speak with you alone.
117116TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001060_ELIDIBUSNone of my doing, lest you misunderstand. The link between her body and soul wavers.
118117TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001070_ELIDIBUSI know not what you hoped to find here, but it will avail you naught to learn of our past.
119118TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001080_LAHABREA(-Convocation Speaker-)**Reviewing the records yet again? Really? You worry too much, Elidibus.
120119TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001090_LAHABREA(-Convocation Speaker-)**This dedication to your duty verges on obsession.
121120TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001100_IGEYORHM(-Convocation Member-)**To think some thought you ill-suited for the role. How wrong they were.
122121TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001110_IGEYORHM(-Convocation Member-)**But come, turn your gaze outside the window, my friend. The rains have ceased, and we have been graced with another beautiful day.
123122TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001120_ELIDIBUSIt fades. Fades away into oblivion. Does the world no longer have need of me?
124123TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001130_ELIDIBUSNo. I am Elidibus. And I must─I *will* fulfill my duty.
125124TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001140_ELIDIBUSSundered though you may be, you fought for the world's salvation. For hope.

128127TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001170_ELIDIBUSAnd yet...
129128TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001180_ELIDIBUSWhy do I yearn for this? Why do I struggle so?
130129TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001190_ELIDIBUSI shall take her into my safekeeping. If you want her back, you will do as I ask.
131130TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001200_ELIDIBUSShow me your strength. I would take your measure.
132131TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001210_ELIDIBUSI have prepared a suitable arena. You need but ride the flow of aether.
133132TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001220_ELIDIBUSYou have grown stronger since last we fought.
134133TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001230_ELIDIBUSThe result of your trials in the First, no doubt.
135134TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001240_YSHTOLA(-???-)Have you finished?
136135TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001250_YSHTOLAMy apologies. I freed myself as soon as I awoke, but rather too late, I see.
137136TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001260_YSHTOLANow, Elidibus, if you have ceased trading blows, I would trade words with you.
138137TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001270_YSHTOLAI have a theory, you see─one concerning that which you seek to accomplish.
139138TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001280_YSHTOLAIt stems from who─or rather *what*─you truly are: a primal.
140139TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001290_YSHTOLAThe ancients created Zodiark to deliver the star from destruction.
141140TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001300_YSHTOLAIf the magick that brought Him forth is the precursor of what we know as summoning, then Zodiark would have been instilled with a presiding desire...
142141TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001310_YSHTOLAI found it among the records at Anyder. And it came as no surprise. Were I faced with the world's destruction, I too would wish for the same...
143142TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001320_YSHTOLASalvation.
144143TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001330_YSHTOLAI know that you sacrificed yourself to become Zodiark's heart.
145144TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001340_YSHTOLAHow you came to be separated from Him is less clear...
146145TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001350_YSHTOLABut if you are a fragment of His being, it stands to reason a desire for the world's salvation would drive you.
147146TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001360_YSHTOLAAnd thus did you seek to inspire the masses to rise up as Warriors of Light, going so far as to use Ardbert as a symbol of hope.
148147TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001370_ELIDIBUSCorrect on all counts. Such is my nature, and such are my methods.
149148TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001380_ELIDIBUSI have aided heroes. I have made them. I have even become them.
150149TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001390_ELIDIBUSThis served not only to strengthen me, but also to facilitate the work of my brothers, such as Emet-Selch, with his penchant for nation building.
151150TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001400_YSHTOLAThen you will be all too familiar with the fickleness of mankind.
152151TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001410_YSHTOLAWe change. We forget. And what little we do remember becomes twisted and fragmented over time. For which reason, you deem us unfit to carry on your legacy.
153152TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001420_YSHTOLABut are you yourself free of these foibles? As the last witness of the Final Days, do you remember *everything* that was lost? Or even the things you cared about?
154153TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001430_ELIDIBUSGet to the point.
155154TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001440_YSHTOLAA primal is shaped by the hope that fuels it. Even should this hope be something as simple as the world's salvation, it is the collective desire of innumerable disparate souls crying out for deliverance.
156155TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001450_YSHTOLAHaving drawn your strength from such a cacophony of voices, can you truly be sure you still speak with your own?

162161TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001510_ELIDIBUSBut enough talk. You have shown me sufficient proof of your might.
163162TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001520_ELIDIBUSAs I am now, I would struggle to defeat you. Yet I have still to play all of my cards.
164163TEXT_VOICEMAN_05300_001530_ELIDIBUSIf I could offer you some semblance of sport, your lessers would pose no threat to me. Would you not agree, Warrior of Darkness?
