10TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000010_GOSSANAlthough we are gathered here for the same reason, we hail from different lands.
21TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000020_GOSSANSome were born and raised in the Alexandria of old, while others came to us from Tuliyollal.
32TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000030_GOSSANIt was from this union of diverse peoples that a new Alexandria was born─the only home that our younger generation knows.
43TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000040_GOSSANHow did we overcome the barriers between us? What moved us to join hands in common purpose beneath crackling skies?
54TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000050_GOSSANYou know the answer. We survived─we thrived─because Queen Sphene brought us together.
65TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000060_GOSSANInspired and encouraged by her boundless kindness, we strove to be better, for ourselves as well as those around us.
76TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000070_GOSSANAnd in Her Majesty's absence...there is a sadness beyond words. Yet we must─we *will* remember her. Remember all the good that she has done for us.
87TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000080_GOSSANSo let us pray, as the people of the old kingdom once did, for the peaceful repose of the departed.
98TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000090_GOSSANAnd let us keep our beloved queen forever in our hearts, that her memory might guide us unto the morrow.
109TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000100_GOSSANWould that I could find solace in my own words...
1110TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000110_ALEXANDRIABOY71Was Queen Sphene taken to the cloud?
1211TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000120_ALEXANDRIAMOTHER71She must have been. To still remember her...is strange, isn't it, darling?
1312TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000130_ALEXANDRIABOY71I miss her. She would always cheer me up when I was down.
1413TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000140_ALEXANDRIABOY71But even though I remember her, I'll never see her again? That doesn't make sense!
1514TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000150_ALEXANDRIAMOTHER71It seems that's what it means to die, I'm afraid.
1615TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000160_ALEXANDRIABOY71But...but what will happen to us? Are we just going to be sad forever?
1716TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000170_ALEXANDRIAMAN71AWhat will happen indeed...
1817TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000180_ALEXANDRIAMAN71AEverything that we have, we owe to Queen Sphene. How are we to go on without her?
1918TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000190_ALEXANDRIAWOMAN71AI still remember Her Majesty so clearly... If only I didn't, I might feel better about the future of our realm.
2019TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000200_ALEXANDRIAMAN71APerhaps we should also consider moving to Tuliyollal. The journey won't be easy, but it'd be better than staying here in uncertainty.
2120TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000210_WUKLAMATIn times like these, I take comfort in the beliefs of a Turali people called the Yok Huy.
2221TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000220_WUKLAMATTo them, death isn't the end. So long as we're remembered, we never truly die.
2322TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000230_WUKLAMATIt could be the same for Queen Sphene, you know? If you keep her alive in your hearts, she'll always be with you.
2423TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000240_ALEXANDRIABOY71But...we still won't be able to see her, right? I don't want to think about that...
2524TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000250_ALEXANDRIABOY71I wish I could just forget instead of having to feel like this...
2625TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000260_WUKLAMATI'm sorry, I didn't mean to impose... Please, mourn your queen however you see fit.
2726TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000270_WUKLAMATAs expected, they struggle to come to terms with their loss. I hope they can find a way to move forward.
2827TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000280_KRILEIt's not only grief that weighs on them, but worry for the future. Bereft of their queen, how will they proceed...
2928TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000290_WUKLAMATTrue... But with that, at least, we're not powerless to help.
3029TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000300_WUKLAMATWhat is it, Gulool Ja?
3130TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000310_GULOOLJAI was wondering... Is it better to remember or forget someone when they're dead?
3231TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000320_GULOOLJAI remember my father. And every time I think of him, it hurts.
3332TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000330_GULOOLJAIt's the same with Queen Sphene. Knowing that she's gone makes me feel sad.
3433TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000340_GULOOLJABut it's different with my mother. I never knew her, so I don't feel as bad.
3534TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000350_GULOOLJAI want to remember my father. But maybe I'd be better off forgetting him...
3635TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000360_WUKLAMATGulool Ja...
3736TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000370_KRILEWhy don't we continue this somewhere else?
3837TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000380_WUKLAMATFor all the talk of my brother felling this beast, he only imprisoned it, like Valigarmanda.
3938TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000390_KRILEFrom what I could tell, they sought to transfer people's souls and memories into bestial vessels at that facility.
4039TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000400_KRILEThe tural vidraal explains the need for a remote location. It was doubtless their prime subject.
4140TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000410_KRILEThough I expect Zoraal Ja did not foresee the opportunities it presented when he imprisoned the creature...
4241TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000420_KANILOKKA...And so, in order to prevent the breakdown of the individual, I instead seek to transfer their soul into the body of the beast.
4342TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000430_ZORAALJAThis would allow one to wield the power of a tural vidraal?
4443TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000440_KANILOKKAIn theory. Our initial experiments will involve lesser creatures, but in time I am confident we will be able to bring even the mightiest under our control.
4544TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000450_ZORAALJAAnd what becomes of those who offer their souls?
4645TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000460_KANILOKKAAs they won't be able to return to their original forms, we must consider them lost. But the sacrifice will be worthwhile, for the army you stand to gain will far surpass any composed of mechanical soldiers.

4948TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000480_KANILOKKAThank you, Your Majesty. I shall return to the observatory and see to the necessary preparations.
5049TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000490_TEESHALJA(-Mamool Ja Woman-)So you've given him permission.
5150TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000500_ZORAALJATeeshal Ja. You will assist Kanilokka.
5251TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000510_ZORAALJAAs one of the Landsguard's finest chirurgeons, your knowledge may be of use in his experiments.
5352TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000520_ZORAALJAYou will also watch him. Closely. And what you learn, you will report to me.
5453TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000530_ZORAALJAYou object to his project? Or are you incapable of performing this duty?
5554TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000540_TEESHALJANo, Your Majesty...
5655TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000550_TEESHALJAWhether we shelter within the dome or expand beyond it, we require great power.
5756TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000560_TEESHALJABut with no one to rely upon, we must take that power for ourselves. Even if the means are questionable.
5857TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000570_TEESHALJAI will do as you command.
5958TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000580_TEESHALJABut if Kanilokka's work bears fruit, I wish to beg a boon.
6059TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000590_ZORAALJAWhat do you desire?
6160TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000600_TEESHALJASomething that I had accepted I would never have in Tuliyollal.
6261TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000610_TEESHALJAThat I believed would forever be beyond me─that it was foolish to covet...
6362TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000620_TEESHALJABut here─here and now, it is close...
6463TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000630_TEESHALJASo very, very close...
6564TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000640_ZORAALJAPerform your duty to my satisfaction, and anything you desire is yours.
6665TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000650_ZORAALJAThat which I seek does not lie within this dome. Here, I cannot prove the miracle.
6766TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000660_ZORAALJABut if what *you* seek is at hand, then you may claim it. For it has no value to me.
6867TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000670_WUKLAMATAre you alright?
6968TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000680_GULOOLJATeeshal Ja... Could she be my mother?
7069TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000690_WUKLAMATLike the people in the outskirts said, few Mamool Ja lived in Yyasulani. I can't imagine many other Hoobigo women were trapped in the dome.
7170TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000700_WUKLAMATThat being the case, she could well be the one.
7271TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000710_KRILEThis observatory Kanilokka returned to─could it not be part of the research facility? We might learn something about Teeshal Ja there.
7372TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000720_WUKLAMATThat's where we're going next, then.
7473TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000730_HHETSARROMANHelp! Heeelp!

7776TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000760_ERENVILLEWe can assist by helping to calm the creatures. Once they're less agitated, it should be possible to herd them.
7877TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000770_WUKLAMATAnd after they're out of harm's way, we'll deal with the rroneek reaver!
7978TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000780_KOANAI suggest you remain here to attend to the rroneek when they arrive.
8079TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000790_HHWATOThey'll be safe with me. Please be careful out there.
8180TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000800_WUKLAMATLook there! We've got a big one coming!

9897TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_000970_ERENVILLEThe rroneek have all made it to Mehwahhetsoan. Hunters are scouring the area for any remaining threats, but the local fauna appear to have calmed down.

101100TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001000_HHWATOWe feared you would be loath to take direct action, yet you didn't hesitate to put your life on the line for our hhetso.
102101TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001010_KOANAI did no more than is a Dawnservant's duty.
103102TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001020_KOANAThe aetherial conductivity of those scales is astounding. I daresay we could repurpose them to create a device that emits controlled pulses of aether.
104103TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001030_ERENVILLE...Aether resembling that of the predator the rroneek fear most.
105104TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001040_ERENVILLEIt might work. If we struck the right balance, we would have the means to deter the rroneek from approaching the railroad without causing them undue distress.
106105TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001050_WUKLAMATIncredible! Koana, you've done it again!
107106TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001060_HHETSARROMANI must say, I was hoping I'd never have to see one of these again...

109108TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001080_HHETSARROMANI had come as a trader to the camp in Loazeniheta. A camp that was obliterated in an instant by that monster.

111110TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001100_KOANAPlease, can you tell me what you saw?
112111TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001110_HHETSARROMANAs I said, I had traveled there to trade with our fellow Hhetsarro.
113112TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001120_HHETSARROMANLike us, they followed the rroneek. And like us, they were visited by a reaver.
114113TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001130_HHETSARROMANThe fiend struck like a whirlwind in the night. It was chaos.
115114TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001140_HHETSARROMANI grabbed some token belongings and bolted in a panic, thinking only of getting as far away as possible. But even in my panicked state, I could not help but notice the young couple racing the other way─toward the fell creature!
116115TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001150_HHETSARROMAN"We'll distract it!“ I heard one cry. ”Save our son! Save the hhetso!“
117116TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001160_HHETSARROMANAfter that, nothing but the pounding of my heart and feet and rroneek thunder. I ran and ran...and as the sun broke the horizon, I found myself separated from both man and beast.
118117TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001170_HHETSARROMANWindborne words say that a group of survivors reunited with their remaining rroneek, and have long since moved on.
119118TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001180_HHETSARROMANBut still more were never seen again, including the brave couple...or so the story goes.
120119TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001190_KOANA...And what became of their child?
121120TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001200_HHETSARROMANI'm afraid I don't know. But if he wasn't with the survivors, even if he lived through that night... The wilderness wouldn't have been kind to a little one out on his lonesome.
122121TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001210_KOANAMaybe not...but perhaps a passing Pelupelu would. And, one day, even the Dawnservant himself...
123122TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001220_KOANAAll these years, I was convinced that my parents had left me behind to follow after the rroneek.
124123TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001230_KOANABut now I see. They didn't abandon me─they were trying to keep me safe.
125124TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001240_KOANAI've wasted so much time resenting them, when in truth they gave me everything I have today.
126125TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001250_KOANAIt is thanks to them that I lived to know the warmth of family, even after they were gone.
127126TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001260_KOANAAnd now that I am Dawnservant, all of Tuliyollal is my family.

133132TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001320_WAWLIKABut as far as the rroneek are concerned, we've spared no effort.
134133TEXT_VOICEMAN_07100_001330_WAWLIKAFrom the ballast to the ties, we've adjusted every bit of the track so she'll run quiet as a field mouse.
