Ranger36 CharacterTextAudio	You were going to put to death the world that I love. Do you really think I would let you and your Beast do that, Malachai?
Witch58 CharacterTextAudio	Poor Malachai, you were so frightened of Death, weren't you? Now the two of you can get better acquainted. It's really not so bad once you get to know it.
Shadow52 CharacterTextAudio	And that's where you missed the point, Malachai. Death is the only thing that gives life any meaning.
Templar55 CharacterTextAudio	You fought against Death your whole life, Malachai, when it was the one thing that would grant you true immortality.
Scion44 CharacterTextAudio	Poor Malachai. You spent three centuries fighting Death, and in all that time, not once did you take the time to live.
Goddess27 CharacterTextAudio	Dominus, now Malachai. No matter who or what, you are nothing but a man's tool, Vinia.
HelenaOnAlva NPCTextAudio	With that book on Vaal blood thaumaturgy, Alva has accessed a power scholars have only dreamed of for centuries. Travelling back in time sounds both insane and absurd, yet I've seen her incursions myself. It is both a curse and a blessing that she chooses to employ those incursions solely for personal gain. Yes, we could do so much more with the power to visit the past, but her focused interests also keep the timeline stable. I can't imagine what would happen to us here and now if, for example, we tried to go back and assassinate Malachai to prevent the Cataclysm. Would we cease to exist? Or would we simply create a second Wraeclast, one in which the Cataclysm never happened? One could go insane thinking about it...
HelenaTransmutiaDevice NPCTextAudio	Malachai himself gave this Transmutia Device to Maligaro. It makes me incredibly uncomfortable to think about the horrors that it helped bring into being. But I must remind myself that science is not responsible for what happened in the Chamber of Sins. Science provides tools for mankind to manipulate the world. It is up to each of us to choose to do good or evil with the power so provided. Maligaro was the evil responsible, and Malachai before him. Together, you and I are going to start using this Device to undo the damage they did.
OshabiOnCorruption NPCTextAudio	I had not heard of Corruption or Malachai before. Azmeri do not speak of the Eternals if they can avoid it. It strikes me that Malachai's pursuits were not so different from our own. He simply handled them as only an iron-fisted Eternal could. The Corruption's similarities to the Lifeforce do not escape me. But you slew the source of the Corruption, and yet the Lifeforce continues to dance through all life, as if this land has been deeply imbued with its essence. Perhaps they are the same, perhaps they are different. Perhaps they are two sides of the same leaf. As long as the Lifeforce continues to radiate from all things in Wraeclast both living and dead, it does not matter. We will learn from Malachai's errors and adapt. That is what the Grove teaches us.
CadiroOnDiallasMalefaction NPCTextAudio	Ah... Dear Dialla. So intent on serving Malachai to the bitter end. Once upon a time, she was one of Chitus' mistresses, but her lustre didn't last. He turned her over to a thaumaturgist many times, and ultimately she fell into Malachai's hands – which led to all those dreadful gem implants...
CadiroOnMalachaisArtifice NPCTextAudio	Malachai was a treacherous old bastard, but he certainly knew how to master the thaumaturgical arts. It's said that this ring was one of many instruments he used to manipulate virtue gems.
CadiroOnStoneOfLazhwar NPCTextAudio	Ah, the Stone of Lazhwar. Lazhwar was an unmistakably great mind of our time. Indeed, many of his ideas were stolen by Malachai and used to construct the Eternal Laboratory. It's a shame that Malachai had a hand in his downfall.
CadiroOnMalachaisMark NPCTextAudio	Malachai certainly left his mark upon Wraeclast. There are still remnants of his evil plaguing the continent. We may never truly know a land untouched by the Cataclysm.
CadiroOnShavronnesGambit NPCTextAudio	Like all of Malachai's students, Shavronne was brilliant and adept in the art of deceit.
CadiroOnDoedresScorn NPCTextAudio	Ah, I recognise that circlet. It belonged to Doedre Darktongue... the perverse old hag that she was. Her mind was more twisted even than Malachai's.
CadiroOnMalachaisVision NPCTextAudio	Malachai's Vision, eh? You may be wearing his crown, but I doubt you'll ever see things in quite the same way as he did.
CadiroOnMalachaisSimula NPCTextAudio	We're all better off now that Malachai is gone, but you can't say he wasn't a clever old bastard.
CadiroOnMalachaisAwakening NPCTextAudio	Malachai's Awakening, eh? May he sleep eternally. Although, if I had a mere fraction of the power he had, I'd be even wealthier than I am now.
CadiroTemplarIntroduction NPCTextAudio	This must be a cruel joke on Prospero's part, sending me here to do business with a Templar! It was your kind that visited misery upon my line, and ended the otherwise 'Eternal' Empire. Though I suppose if you've been exiled, you hardly support those who would emulate Malachai... perhaps we can deal with each other cordially after all.
CedrusTwilightLoreDump_4 NPCTextAudio	Our faith was founded on distrust of the gods, but when they mysteriously vanished thousands of years ago, the ancient members of our order dedicated themselves to understanding why. Eventually, they discovered the existence of the Beast. A nightmarish entity, with the power to divert and eat the faith of followers and zealots. We had not created this creature, though we absolutely would have made such a thing if we had the capability. No, the truth was far more shocking. The vilified one, of our own false faith - the Cult of Innocence, was the one who had betrayed his brother and his fellow gods by germinating an end to divinity. Our order almost dissolved over the following millenia, dwindling to just a few keepers of the faith. Those few only kept our tenets in their hearts out of a latent fear that the gods may one day return. Until, Malachai.
CedrusTwilightLoreDump_5 NPCTextAudio	From afar, my order witnessed Malachai enter the Beast, assume control of it, and begin to reshape Wraeclast to his will. In the centuries since, we have been focused on bringing about utopia with that power. We ask the question: what if someone good of heart, without flaws, was to reshape the world for the better? The elders began a guided series of marriages and resulting children, with the aim to bring about a perfect leader, the saviour! Then, it all came crashing down when the Beast was slain twenty years ago, and the gods returned.
