This blog aims to collect the various voice lines from the Pillars of Eternity games, including (but not limited to) companion banter, commentaries, and quest dialogue. Basically, it's just me trawling through the game files and attempting to put the audio together into something resembling an archive. I have yet to figure out how to retrieve audio from the PoE1 DLC. Also, I have a bit of an Edér bias.

Got specific audio you want to see? Send in a request!

Kana: It's good to be on the road again. A wanderlust is nothing rare in the people of Rauatai, but often I think myself alone in loving the land as much as the sea.

Kana: What shall we see next, I wonder?

Kana: Hm. What shall I tell…? I am Kana Rua, born in the royal city of Tâkowa, from which rules the Ranga Nui. There, that is a solemn enough start.

Kana: I'm a lore chanter in the college there. Or at least a student of lore and a chanter both.

I am not being lazy about posting, I am letting that last Aloth audio sink in. Absorb the wizard, motherfuckers.

Aloth: I have not been entirely honest about my motives for traveling with you up to this point.

Aloth: When I finished my training in Aedyr, I was introduced to an organization. All I knew was that they were opposed to the unchecked spread of animancy and that they could guarantee me postings far away from the Cythwood, my father, and his erl. At that time, it was enough.

Aloth: In the early years, I thought of them as many things. Hooded men. Prudent teachers. The Leaden Key. Their rules were strict, but their guidance was clear. I sincerely believed they wanted to keep kith from the folly of their own foolish ambitions.

Aloth: I came to the Dyrwood a little over a year ago. My orders were to gather information on animancy in the region.

Aloth: A senior contact met with me every few months to receive my reports and issue new leads. She sent me to Gilded Vale to keep an eye on events surrounding the local lord, but I lost track of her shortly after that.

Aloth: I don't know if she was reassigned, killed, or… sacrificed, the way you saw. By the time you met me, I'd been on my own for a couple of months.

Aloth: I needed some kind of direction. After that scrape with the locals, I was ready to get out of town. But then you mentioned the hooded figures and the machine, and I was sure you were on the trail of the Leaden Key.

Aloth: I knew the Leaden Key was trying to stop animancy, but I didn't realize how far they'd gone. Murder, sabotage, abandoning entire districts to shambling horrors… and now the whole city is up in flames.

Aloth: I'm still not sure about animancy, but I know I've been following the wrong master. Please, accept my apology... and my service. Let me fight with you to stop Thaos.

Serafen: Right hard thing, lass, losin' family.

Serafen: Got meself some grog stashed away, you decide you be wanting a pull or ten.

Pallegina: Agracima. It is appreciated. I may take you up on that some night.

Serafen: Assuming the, er, captain don't get us all good and dead first, heh heh.

Tekēhu: Xoti! I say, you stepped on a sacred palm beetle!

Xoti: No! I didn't mean to! Darn it, you think that's bad luck on me now?

Tekēhu: Ekera, the elders say your nose will fall off into the sand.

Xoti: That sounds rea—wait. You wouldn't be pulling my leg now, would you? I'm just sayin', I find it funny that all these sacred beetles seem so drawn to me. That makes nine.

Tekēhu: Ekera, the son of trickster Ngati does not wander far from his mother's ways.

Tekēhu: Still, I should warn you of the tarantula crawling up your back.

Xoti: Nice try, but I ain't fallin' for this one.

Tekēhu: I do not joke about spiders.

Tekēhu: Wonderful news, friend Xoti! A sacred coconut beetle is entangled in your hair!

Xoti: Well don't just watch it lay eggs, pull it out for me!

Tekēhu: It is a good omen! Let it crawl, I say.

Xoti: Fair enough. But if it gets smushed, it ain't my fault.

Serafen: This Giacolo salt, he saved your life, and you've now returned the favor, aye?

Pallegina: He did more than save my life. Di verus, he made my life worth living. Saving him seems like too small a gesture.

Serafen: The scales ain't never balanced, lass, nor balancin' 'em, the point.

Aloth: Tekēhu, must you practice your chants so loudly?

Tekēhu: Songs are for singing, my friend! If they bother you, I will find one more to your liking.

Aloth: Tekēhu, if you keep tugging on...that, I fear you'll pull it clean off.

Tekēhu: My tentacles enjoy a good tug! I try not to take them by surprise, after last time.

Tekēhu: For what do you stare at me, priestess?

Xoti: It's just—I mean, your uh, hair. It keeps wrigglin' around, like it's got a mind of its own.

Tekēhu: Do you wish to touch one? They do not bite.

Xoti: Would I ever! Hold still. (pause) Ooh, slimy.

Iselmyr: Bit to slick yer breeches, scholar lad!

Kana: I beg your pardon?

Aloth: Nothing. I said nothing.

You're very kind! I have put together the audio and will post it soon.

Well lads, I am back.

And boy, do I have tentacle content for you all.

Hello I am burnt out for the time being and as such will not be posting. If anyone would like to pick up my slack DM me! Cheers 🩵

Xoti: How'd you come by that scar on your brow, Aloth?

Aloth: This? Ah. I found myself in a rather...perilous situation with a band of darguls.

Xoti: Darguls can be real nasty. You're lucky that's all you got to show for it.

Aloth: I certainly gave them worse. Er, not to boast, of course.
