monk_01
|
Judge, oh Lord, those who do injustice to me. Fight for those who fight with me. (The Filename can also be found in temp\distance_test , with the last sentence excised)
|
|
monk_02
|
Thou hast caused my companions to be distant from me and those that know me on account of my wretchedness. | |
monk_03
|
Woe to me, for my dwelling was far off and I was in the dwelling of the chaos. | |
monk_04
|
And I flattered those merciless ones, and when I flattered them they attacked me without cause. | |
monk_05
|
May they become like dust before the wind and may the Angel of the Lord pursue them. (May their paths become dark and slippery and may the Angel of the Lord afflict them.) | |
monk_06
|
For without cause they have hidden from me a snare to their own destruction and in vain they have slandered my soul. | |
monk_07
|
May the snare which they do not know come to them and may the net which they have hidden from me catch them and may they fall into the snare. | |
monk_08
|
I commend you to the light my beloved Jakov and wish you peace from this place of chaos. Go and join your family in the place of glory, flee from the desertions of the demiurge. | |

monk_greet07

Well. If you can survive, then I will take that as a sign. Press on until you see my church, and then perhaps we can work together. | |

Still, my hopes for you are improving. You may not be the savior I was hoping for, but perhaps you will do after all. (No text data) | |

Greetings, my brother! It is truly remarkable what you have done. You are the first to survive the streets of Ravenholm since the enemy first swept us with its shadow. | |

Now come, let us enter the sanctuary. Be wary still, for even here there are dangers. (No text data) |

Woe to all, for our dwelling place is distant, and we wander through the domiciles of Chaos. | |
monk_rant03

My power was lost in places which were not mine. Affliction besought me, and the merciless ones attacked me without cause. | |

Although they call me crazy I care not, for thou art my helper, my strength, and my saviour. | |
monk_rant05

Thy will be done, Oh Light of Lights. I bless the glory of thy greatness all the day and through the darkness of this night. | |

I pray do never turn away thy light. Give heed to me, and spring thy traps upon my enemies when I cry out to thee. | |

Turn not thy face away from me; incline thy ear and hear me when I shall cry to thee in my affliction. | |

For the days of my life have vanished like smoke, and my bones are parched like ash, and let all my impurities be as fuel for that fire until nothing remains but the Light alone. | |

From the voice of my groaning my bone has cleaved to my flesh. | |
monk_rant11

For my soul is filled with evil, and like this place must be purged. | |
monk_rant12
|
For the dead know no sleep in their graves, nor dost thou remember them, until they are destroyed through thy hands. | |
monk_rant13
|
I have been laid down in a pit of darknesses and the shadow of death. And thy anger has pressed down upon me; and all thy cares have come down upon me. And from this bed I cry out for the kindling of thy Light! | |
monk_rant14
|
And what terrible wonders are these those hast done among the dead. What shades rise to confess thee, and what specters shall know thee by thy name? | |

Oh Light, may thy name be spoken in the graves, and spelled in bones and ashes! | |

Ravenholm (Cancelled game)[edit]
Transcribed as heard in The Untold History of Arkane: Dishonored / Prey / Ravenholm / LMNO / The Crossing documentary and subsequent gameplay showcase. Some lines are partially inaudible in the provided footage.
The following are lines from the opening of the introductory chapter Unwelcome Company.
Filename(s) | Quote |
---|---|
N/A | So much violence right now. I regret you have become part of it, and yet I confess I am gladdened by your company. Too much solitude is not good for a man who, like myself, wishes only to serve, but I've been good for nothing of late. My soul is filled with evil, and like this town, it must be purged. Now I cannot claim great wisdom, yet through much trial and error, I have found a way to immunize myself against the demons' neurotoxins. Homeopathic principles, you understand. |
N/A | We have time for a quick bite, supping on nourishment quite plentiful in Ravenholm. Would that it were otherwise. |
N/A | If one is sufficiently famished, the white meat is tolerable. I will make no comparisons to poultry. |
N/A | Ah, there you are! |
N/A | Kill your concern. I'm quite immune to that bite. These I hardly even notice them. |
N/A | Now as for the beacon, I will try to provide some illumination. I have prayed for assistance with this particular task, and tonight my prayers were answered. |
N/A | But this has ceased being about them. Truth be told, brother, I fear for myself, and now for you as well. The beacon exists to send out a signal. It will be a guiding light to all who have eyes. |
N/A | Ill-timed, we are safe here no longer. They've surrounded us like water. They have seized away our day. |
N/A | Get in that hole brother. Don't wait for me. I will find you after dealing with these dark [inaudible]. |
After reuniting with Grigori outside the hospital.
Filename(s) | Quote |

N/A | Praise the light that you have survived. Some fresh air is just ahead. In the yard, you will see some of my mechanisms for restoring power. |
N/A | Here. Isn't it lovely? |
N/A | Behold, brother. This generator will power my electrical snares as well as the signal beacon. Be very careful. There's more than a 100,000 volts. You know those volts will jump. |
N/A | It's reaching the east wing. Likely a breaker I missed. I'll need your help finding it. Once you throw the switch, power in the east wing will be restored, and we can proceed. |
N/A | Go that way, brother. I have a radio that will patch me in to the hospital's intercom system. I will try to keep you company along the way. |
Heard over the intercom while inside the hospital during the chapter Electrical Play.
Filename(s) | Quote |
---|---|
N/A | Are you inside the hospital, brother? Perhaps not. I cannot hear you, but maybe my voice will give you some comfort. |
N/A | And I am at work on the roof, brother, stringing cables. You should be nearing the place where the power can be restored to the east wing. |
N/A | Praise the lights, brother, you did it! Electricity flows into the east wing! I can see the lights from here. There must be a breach deep in the hospital basement. You'll have to cross the entire east wing then drop into the basement. It will be a long journey, brother. I will do my best to keep up your morale. |
Continuing to speak over the intercom in the chapter Swarming.
Filename(s) | Quote |
---|---|
N/A | Brother, you are still alive! I just saw you pass the closed circuit camera there. Yes, be careful. I can see the area ahead is riddled with cracks and [inaudible]. The creatures are pouring in ahead of you. Try to seal them out as best you can. I feel the main breach is even farther ahead. |
N/A | Damn these injections. A small price to pay for immunity from the demons' toxins. Once you have sealed the breach and helped me direct power to Ravenholm [inaudible]. |
N/A | Hmm, the transformer is problematic. I admit that I am not an expert in this kind of machinery. Still, I think it should be working soon. I hope your progress towards the breach is not too disheartening. |
Continuing on the intercom in the chapter Pitch Black.
Filename(s) | Quote |
---|---|
N/A | I should warn you, there were experiments. [inaudible] laboratory animals, you understand. They were part of the search for a cure, an anti-venom. Some of the early tests failed. You may see the results in their brutal and degenerative glory. |
N/A | I have encountered these lab-bred abominations. The only advice I can give is that they seem particularly sensitive to light. |
N/A | Hmm, you seem to be closing on the source of evil, brother. I'm sure the breach is just beyond this dark warrens. |
Further lines on the intercom before reuniting again in person in an unknown chapter.

N/A | Brother, some of the hospital's wiring is hopelessly ruined, even with the power restored. You will want to find my charge gun. It is both a powerful tool and a weapon. |
N/A | The mental institution has suffered in much the same way as the rest of the hospital. I wish to find a direct path to you, but alas, the way is blocked. |
N/A | Ha ha! Hello, brother! We meet again at last. |
N/A | This is the passageway to the lab I've been using. It holds the serum I need for my injections. Charge the forklift, brother, so that I can access the window. I will open the door from the far side. |
