51TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000020_EMETSELCHLeaving naught in their wake but blood and ash.
62TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000030_EMETSELCHSun scorches earth and boils seas...
73TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000040_EMETSELCHAnd our sins ascend unto the heavens─
84TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000050_EMETSELCHThree dooms to unmake all we were.
95TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000060_ALISAIEThe sky burns. The Final Days...are truly upon us.
106TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000070_AWAHEEN...My friends. I trust you have heard the news.
117TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000080_ALPHINAUDWe have. What can you tell us of the situation, Your Excellency?
128TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000090_AWAHEENLast night, the isle was rocked by tremors, and the earth itself cried out.
139TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000100_AWAHEENAloft, the heavens began to burn. From all about, unholy beasts─the likes of which we had never seen─came forth in fury and rage.
1410TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000110_AWAHEEN...No. To say they “came forth” would be...inexact.
1511TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000120_AWAHEENThe people of Radz-at-Han themselves transformed into these baleful fiends.
1612TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000130_AWAHEENThough the phenomenon was observed throughout our lands, the first creature─the largest and most dreadful of the lot─wrought havoc upon us here, in our fair city.
1713TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000140_AWAHEENThough they bear superficial resemblance to divinities of legend, they are ungodly abominations. The people decry them as “blasphemies.”
1814TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000150_AWAHEENThe large one's rampage has since taken it to the northern reaches of the island. I mean to dispatch our Radiant Host in an attempt to quell the threat.
1915TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000160_ESTINIENAnd what of Vrtra?
2016TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000170_AWAHEENVrtra, too, makes for the north of his own accord. And yet...
2117TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000180_AWAHEENHe knows the blasphemy and its minions were but yesterday his beloved people.
2218TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000190_AWAHEENI pray his boundless compassion and mercy does not deter him from taking unenviable but necessary action.
2319TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000200_ALPHINAUD...Understood. I ask that you allow us to aid you in quelling this threat.
2420TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000210_AWAHEENYou would risk your lives to help us yet again? I have no words to express my gratitude.
2521TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000220_AWAHEENOur regiments approach the north from several directions, with a number of units set to depart from the docks of Yedlihmad.
2622TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000230_AWAHEENThey will make landfall in an area of dense jungle, where one can expect to encounter dangers even beyond the fell beasts we hunt.
2723TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000240_AWAHEENI leave you to your preparation. You will find me at the docks when you are ready to depart.
2824TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000250_ALISAIEWe're as prepared as we'll ever be. Let's go.

3430TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000310_YSHTOLAThe beast was there...and now it is no more, yes?
3531TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000320_THANCREDIndeed, we saw it plain. But...you didn't, did you?
3632TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000330_YSHTOLAI saw nothing. Not the blasphemy that perished here, nor the other men-turned-beasts. And because of this, I now see all too well...
3733TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000340_YSHTOLAThere is no aether. Where the creatures should be, I saw naught but emptiness...
3834TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000350_ALPHINAUDEmptiness? But that would mean...
3935TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000360_YSHTOLARecall the words of the watcher. 'Twas a stagnancy of aether─a cessation of flow leading to decay and absence─that led the ancients to conclude their star was dying...
4036TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000370_YSHTOLAThis is the same phenomenon. The instant these people are seized by the transformation, their aether begins to...rot and crumble away like dried mud...
4137TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000380_YSHTOLAUntil, from their corporeal forms to their very souls, naught remains...
4238TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000390_ALISAIEBut the beast spoke with its dying breath! Surely, at least a sliver of the man it was endured!
4339TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000400_YSHTOLA...Mayhap so. But even if the process was incomplete, 'twas little more than a faint residue.
4440TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000410_ALISAIEGods be good... You're saying they cannot be saved?

4642TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000430_YSHTOLA...Or by any means at all, like as not. For there is naught left to save.

4844TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000450_VRITRAThe beasts rage on, their hunger insatiable...
4945TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000460_VRITRAEven deprived of their master, they perpetuate his legacy of hate.

5450TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000510_AWAHEEN...Vrtra. Calamity has come to Radz-at-Han. Our fair nation is rent by screams of pain and despair.
5551TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000520_AWAHEENMore than ever, we require a strong leader to shepherd us through the storm. Reveal your true self to our people, Vrtra, and guide us to salvation!
5652TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000530_VRITRAWhat madness is this, Ahewann? Thou dost forget thyself.
5753TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000540_VRITRAWere we to reveal our duplicity, it would do naught but foster confusion and chaos.
5854TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000550_VRITRANay, I shall remain the satrap's loyal ally, and do battle with the beasts. Easing hearts and leading the people to safety is thy task, and thine alone.
5955TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000560_VRITRAI ask that you remain at Ahewann's side, and render unto him what aid you may.
6056TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000570_VRITRAI know not what lies ahead, but without you, Radz–at–Han will not survive.

6359TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000600_VRITRAWere my words unclear? I require no assistance. Thy place is at Ahewann's side.

6561TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000620_THANCREDIt's the last thing you ever wanted─a linkpearl.
6662TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000630_THANCREDWe'd gain much from knowing your elevated perspective. And it'll keep you from getting lonely─which I know you loathe.
6763TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000640_ESTINIEN
6864TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000650_ESTINIENYou heard the man. Seems I'm coming with you after all.
6965TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000660_VRITRAThen I pray thy grip is iron. Be it on thy head if thou dost chance to fall.
7066TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000670_ESTINIENFair enough. Now─shall we?
7167TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000680_AWAHEENI fear it is as Vrtra says: we will not survive this on our own. While I am loath to impose upon you again...
7268TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000690_ALPHINAUDI would insist if you did not. 'Tis the very reason we have come.
7369TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000700_AWAHEENThen once more I find myself without words to thank you properly. Let us return to the capital and plan our next course of action.
7470TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000710_YSHTOLAThere you are. You've spoken with the survivors?
7571TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000720_GRAHATIAIndeed. We thought to share what we have gleaned, that we might together gain a greater understanding of present circumstances.
7672TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000730_ALPHINAUDFortuitous timing. Alisaie and I completed our own investigations not long ago.
7773TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000740_YSHTOLAThen we should take a moment to compare notes. Shall we begin with the two of you?
7874TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000750_ALPHINAUD...So the merchant Khalzahl was gravely concerned about his business in the days preceding his untimely end.
7975TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000760_ALISAIEThe tales we heard were much the same. The first victims to be changed into blasphemies were all overcome with anguish of one manner or another.
8076TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000770_ALISAIEThen those who saw their loved ones stolen before their eyes succumbed to a similar panic, setting in motion a chain of transformations.
8177TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000780_ALPHINAUDFear, unease, despair...these negative feelings serve as a catalyst.
8278TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000790_YSHTOLAIf so, then it is not unlike the calamity that befell the ancients.
8379TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000800_YSHTOLAWith their creation magicks they unwittingly gave form to untold horrors.
8480TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000810_YSHTOLAHad they simply lost control, surely it would have manifested in many forms─not all of them monstrous.
8581TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000820_YSHTOLAYet somehow this phenomenon is triggered solely by the darkness in their hearts. A common thread with what we now witness.
8682TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000830_ALPHINAUD...Common, but not identical. While the beasts the ancients faced were forged with magic alone, those of today are born of sentient beings.
8783TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000840_ALPHINAUDWhy remains to be seen, but there is one fundamental difference between us and our predecessors: our souls are sundered, whereas theirs were not.
8884TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000850_ALPHINAUDPerhaps that single variable makes all the difference.
8985TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000860_GRAHATIAIf I may...there was another detail that troubled me.
9086TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000870_GRAHATIAWe have it on good authority that Khalzahl's transformation took place before the skies began to burn.
9187TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000880_ALISAIEWhat!? If that's true, then the situation's more dire than we realized.
9288TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000890_ALISAIEIt means even if there's no ominous sign presaging the Final Days, anyone─anywhere─has the potential to become a beast.
9389TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000900_ALISAIEEven in lands we thought safe. Even as we speak...
9490TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000910_HANNISHMANALook, it's the satrap!
9591TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000920_HANNISHBOYAThe satrap!

9894TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000950_AWAHEENWhile the danger has not yet passed─far from it─allow me to assure you that the beasts that raged within the city walls have been exterminated to the last.
9995TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000960_AWAHEENOutside this sanctuary, the brave men and women of the Radiant Host and our dragon ally continue to battle our unholy foes.
10096TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_000970_AWAHEENI pray these tidings put your minds at ease, and help you calm your hearts. Have faith that we shall soon conquer this terrible trial.

156152TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_001490_ESTINIENOf small solace is that we now know what triggers the transformation. As my companions tell it...
157153TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_001500_VRITRASo it is the very fear and despair in their hearts which inflict this abhorrent punishment upon them...

344340TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003330_MIHLEELHere's your order, friend.
345341TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003340_MIHLEELMay you find comfort in these dark times.
346342TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003350_ALISAIEWhere do we go from here?
347343TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003360_ALISAIEIf there's one thing we've learned, fighting blindly and simply reacting to what comes will accomplish nothing.
348344TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003370_ALISAIEWe must find a solution that addresses the fundamental cause. Before our strength is exhausted. Before this crisis spirals out of control!
349345TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003380_ALISAIEIs there something...anything we've overlooked?
350346TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003390_YSHTOLAIf there is an answer, Hydaelyn Herself will have it. 'Twas She who bound Zodiark and forestalled the Final Days.
351347TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003400_YSHTOLAAlas, we have heard naught from Her since the Tower of Babil. Whether She cannot or will not speak, I can only speculate...
352348TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003410_YSHTOLAEven the flower She gave us is no more...

355351TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003440_ALPHINAUDTo me as well. It meant something to the ancients, though. “In <Emphasis>our</Emphasis> time...”
356352TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003450_YSHTOLAMost surely. Yet I do not recall a single mention of it in the records of Anyder.
357353TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003460_ALISAIEAnother dead end, and quite literally. It's not as if there are any ancients living we could go and ask...

362358TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003510_GRAHATIAHowever, if part of it lingers...we might be able to speak with him there.
363359TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003520_GRAHATIAI─no, we can no longer make that journey. But you, my friend, still can.
364360TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_Q2_000_001_NONE_VOICEWhat will you say?
365361TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_A2_000_001_NONE_VOICEIt's worth a try.
366362TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_A2_000_002_NONE_VOICEIt would be an opportunity to look in on the others as well.

369365TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003540_GRAHATIAThank you, my friend. That would mean much to me.
370366TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003550_GRAHATIAI understand your trepidation, but there is merit in making the journey regardless. You could see with your own eyes whether the First, too, faces its Final Days.
371367TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003560_THANCREDIf nothing else, should we learn the First is safe, we'll have that much more reason to keep fighting the good fight.
372368TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003570_THANCREDThat said...the odds are not in our favor, to say the least.
373369TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003580_THANCREDWhich is why we're fortunate to have Urianger up there on the moon, working hard to make all the necessary preparations for our departure, should it come to it.
374370TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003590_ALISAIE...And why we have nothing to lose by staying the course till the last instant!
375371TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003600_YSHTOLAIndeed. To the last, let us all do what we can.
376372TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003610_YSHTOLAI will consult with Master Matoya and see if she knows of a way to reach Hydaelyn from the aetherial sea.
377373TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003620_ALPHINAUDAnd I will visit the nations' leaders and attempt to ascertain how far the Final Days have progressed elsewhere.
378374TEXT_VOICEMAN_06003_003630_ESTINIENKeep me abreast of your findings. I can seek out and slay the worst of the immediate threats, if only to slow the spread.
