Dark Souls II - The Scholar (Aldia/Andeal) Dialogue & Patch Audio

[halichoeresbivittatus]

In all seriousness, this is probably the deepest NPC/boss we've had in a while. I mean, this fucker obviously knows what he's talking about.

Men are props on the stage of life, and no matter how tender, how exquisite…
A LIE WILL REMAIN A LIE!

The part that weirds me out alot, apart from his vast knowledge of all, is his knowledge of the past kings... I wonder so much if he actually knew the three...  The time periods of all the kings are so different, the sunken seems so far away, yet Drakeblood knights are of Drangleic... The royal soldiers in Brume Tower.. as for Eleum Loyce.. There's nothing.

Thank you for all of these: Demons and Dark. I am working on a series of videos called Lands of Exile that focuses on a particular area in each of the games and injecting the lore through NPC dialogue to give the viewer a sense of place, atmosphere and story. All of the work you have done compiling this is invaluable. I am capturing the dialogue too but it is easy to miss certain things. If I use some of this I will credit you, but I just wanted to say thank you.
Moonlight Butterfly has also done something similar.

The name Andeal is from japanese version, he's called Aldia, the same Lord Aldia mentioned in Aldia's Keep

This song....brings back SOOOO many Dark Souls 2 memories! 

[TruthfulTravesty]

Listen closely at around 2:29 to the way Aldia says "love" and "however"... that female voice layered on to his own sounds awfully familiar... someone in possession of a feather who was "born of dragons" perhaps... someone who "did not come out as expected"; who was imperfect as deemed by the eyes of a scrutinizing creator...

Ds2 wasn't a bad game. It's not as good as the other 2 but it's still a really well made game

[LunaresDraconis-X]

What is he trying to say?! What meaning lies behind his warped words! sooo many question....NOT ENOUGH ANSWERS!  

[whitet-shirt]

Just wondering has anybody have the recording without the raspy voice. Like when he talked in the trailer, he sounded normal.

[DerLaberheld]

Is this part missing?

All men trust fully the illusion of life.
But is this so wrong?
A construction, a facade, and yet...
A world full of warmth and resplendence.
Young Hollow, are you intent on shattering the yoke, spoiling this wonderful falsehood?
