:
Garden of Antiquity (pt.1) - Al'Taieu
Nag'molada: Incredible...
Nag'molada: Al'Taieu... 
You were meant to be impossible to find...
Nag'molada: Ahahaha! 
Who would have thought the plan to open the gate of the gods would succeed!
Nag'molada: Al'Taieu! 
Long have I yearned to behold your magnificent spires!
Nag'molada: Why...? 
Why can't I hear the voices?
Nag'molada: Why do I not hear the whispers of the Zilartian people or the Dawn Maiden?
Nag'molada: Silence!
Nag'molada: Your unruly thoughts are clouding my mind!
Nag'molada: !?
Nag'molada: So, the rest of you were drawn into this world as well. 
How inconvenient...
Nag'molada: A visit to the Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi should bring some interesting encounters. 
Perhaps the Dawn Maiden is there...
 
Chapter 8: Emptiness Bleeds
On to Al'Taieu (pt.1) - Sealion's Den
Sueleen: That ship of yours made its way back here of its own accord. 
Must be that "autopilot" thing that Prishe was talking about.
Sueleen: I've resupplied the airship, so you can take off at any time. 
Let me know when you're ready to board.
Garden of Antiquity (pt.2) - Al'Taieu
Ulmia: Player name!
Ulmia: You were brought to this peculiar realm as well?
Ulmia: Are you injured? 
You have been treated terribly...
Louverance: I hear a voice calling to me...
Jabbos: It seems...to be coming...from beyond...the gate...
Louverance: The portal appears to be locked. 
If we are to believe the talk of those beings, this path leads to the palace of the Zilartian king.
Louverance: One of the inhabitants here spoke of a girl matching Prishe's description heading this way. 
If we can gain an audience with the king, we should learn exactly what's going on here.
Louverance: !? 
This place lies beyond the Gate of the Gods? 
Did the ancients truly cross that legendary border!?
Ulmia: Let us not be so hasty in our assumptions. 
This is indeed a beautiful land...
Ulmia: However, I cannot believe this is the Paradise of peace and love spoken of in legend. 
We have already been set upon by vicious beasts.
Shikaree Z: And if what Bahamut says is true, the Keeper of the Apocalypse lurks somewhere in this rrrealm.
Ulmia: If Prishe was so intent on gaining entry to the palace, then the keeper will most likely be found inside...
Jabbos: Nag'molada...has also...entered the...palace... 
We have...no choice...but...to proceed...
Jabbos: This...gate...must have...an opening...mechanism...
We...should...look around...
Louverance: Only...
Louverance: I worry that the Keeper of the Apocalypse will be beyond our ability.
Jabbos: What...do you mean...?
Louverance: Player name. 
The four sources of light you acquired...
Louverance: Were they not all taken from you by that blackheart, Nag'molada?
:Was the light taken from you?
::Yes, it is gone. <----- Chose this option!
::No, the light remains.
Ulmia: Are you certain? 
I feel that the light has not abandoned us.
Ulmia: If we all stand together in body and spirit, there may still be a chance...
:Was the light taken from you?
::Yes, it is gone.
::No, the light remains. <----- Chose this option!
Ulmia: You mean to say that the light has not left us completely? 
Ulmia: Then if we all stand together in body and spirit, there may still be a chance...
Jabbos: I have...no intention...of joining forces...with Nag'molada...
Louverance: And I would prefer to keep some distance from Lord Tenzen. 
Do you not agree, Lord/Lady Player name?
Ulmia: ...
Shikaree Z: First we have to find a way to open this gate. 
Let's get moving.
Garden of Antiquity (pt.3) - Al'Taieu
Makki-Chebukki: You! 
Have you come to punish us!?
:Mete out some punishment?
::Time for payback... <----- Chose this option!
::Let's be civilized...
:Mete out some punishment?
::Time for payback...
::Let's be civilized... <----- Chose this option!
Makki-Chebukki: H-h-hold on a second! 
Time out! Time out!
Makki-Chebukki: It's not our fault! 
Lord Tenzen lied to us!
Makki-Chebukki: And if you don't follow your samurai master's orders, you have to commit ritual suicide. 
It's true! I read it in a book somewhere!
Makki-Chebukki: So...
Makki-Chebukki: I suppose you want to get into the palace, huh?
Makki-Chebukki: Well, we want to get in there, too. 
This voice in my head is driving me crazy!
Makki-Chebukki: Let's let bygones be bygones and work together, okay? 
We've ditched the samurai life, anyway.
Makki-Chebukki: Getting past that gate is more complicated than just releasing the lock on this southern tower.
Makki-Chebukki: If you really want to know how to open the gate, you better take a look at the other towers as well.
Garden of Antiquity (pt.4) - Al'Taieu
Kukki-Chebukki: Well done!
Kukki-Chebukki: Makki told me all about our deal! 
You wanna get in to see the king, right?
Kukki-Chebukki: Just so's you know, the positions of princes and princess have already been filled!
Kukki-Chebukki: Didn't you know? 
The Zilartian king used to have two sons and a daughter.
Kukki-Chebukki: They've been out of the picture for ten thousand years now, so he must be feeling pretty lonely.
Kukki-Chebukki: After all that time, he's probably a few jewels short of a crown, too, if you know what I mean. 
I doubt the king'll notice if we're a little shorter than he remembers.
Kukki-Chebukki: We might even take you on as a servant if you're lucky! 
C'mon, time's a wastin'! Off to the southern tower!
Kukki-Chebukki: Mind your manners around the future princess!
Garden of Antiquity (pt.5) - Al'Taieu
Cherukiki: I thought minced Tarutaru was back on the menu for a second there...
Cherukiki: You have our royal gratitude.
Cherukiki: Prince Kukki has informed me of the situation, and I commend you on your wise decision.
Cherukiki: We shall be sure to put in a good word for you with His Majesty.
Cherukiki: I have my brothers on standby. 
Once I give the word, we'll hit all the buttons at the same time!
Makki-Chebukki: Did we do it!?
Kukki-Chebukki: Is it open!?
Cherukiki: I think it opened! 
Here we come, Royal Daddy!
Garden of Antiquity - Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi
Makki-Chebukki: Open the gates! 
The elder prince has returned!
Kukki-Chebukki: Lower the drawbridge! 
The younger prince is home!
Cherukiki: Prepare the banquet table! 
The princess is starved!
Louverance: Another obstacle in our path?
Ulmia: What mischief are you three up to this time?
Shikaree Z: I can hear it clearly now. 
The source must be beyond this gate.
:Can you hear it?
::Loud and clear. <----- Chose this option!
::Hear what?
Shikaree Z: Our contact with the mothercrystal must have altered our senses in some way. 
That would explain this ethereal voice...
:Can you hear it?
::Loud and clear.
::Hear what? <----- Chose this option!
Shikaree Z: You can't hear it? 
A voice is calling to us, suffocating in its insistence.
Jabbos: It is...telling us...to pass through...this gate...
Louverance: A portal of this magnificence can only lead to the audience chamber of the Zilartian king.
Ulmia: Could this soul-stirring voice belong to the king himself?
Ulmia: If so, then why does the gate remain closed? 
Are the children of Vana'diel not welcome here?
Ulmia: Oh, Player name. 
Whatever are we to do?
Ulmia: Cardinal Mildaurion gifted us with a ring that has the power to transport a person directly to Tavnazia...
Ulmia: But I have no intention of returning until we discover the way to open this gate. Perhaps it may be of some small use to you, Player name.
