Cinematics - andrejs_80 - 03-29-2006

OK, I'm not so good at English, I admit.

Who would be so kind to let me have the full transcript of each trailer in-between the game (I mean, the cinematics stuff). Because I'm interested in what they say, but sometimes I cannot grasp a word (sometimes it's the overall noise in the trailer that bothers)

Thank you in advance for your help


Cinematics - Orphan - 04-08-2006

I'm not going to say that this is 100% accurate, but it'd be very close :)

Here's the transcript from the first cinematics "The Sister's Lament". I'll do the rest later on:

----------------
<Cloaked figure walking through gateway>
<Marius lying on the ground in cell>
<door opens>
<cloaked figure enters and sits near the window, while Marius crawls away>

Cloaked Figure: So Marius...at last I find you

<Marius looks into the light from the window and sees Tyrael>

Marius: Tyrael, yes..yes now I..now I recognise you...you
Marius: I should have known you'd travel in disguise
Marius: I...they're..they're always watching

Cloaked Figure: I've been searching for you for a long time Marius
Cloaked Figure: I was rather beginning to think that you didn't want to be found

Marius: Oh forgive me Tyreal please ... it... it wasn't my fault..

Cloaked Figure: Not your fault? Tell me Marius, how was it not your fault?

Marius: The wanderer...yes...it was....was the wanderer

<flashback>

Marius: My days at the rogue citadel seemed so long ago
Marius: I sought refuge .. from my memories in the company of other outcasts, high in the moutains past the eastern gate

<Bar staff member walks up to Marius>

Bar staff: Do you want something

<Bar staff member walks away>

Marius: Oh.. I fought sleep .. for days at a time
Marius: For when I dreamt, the memories .. would return
Marius: Memories of the monestary .. and the evil which had claimed it
Marius: Dreams, memories, I couldn't tell the difference anymore

<Wanderer comes in>

Marius: Had the evil from my dreams followed me in my heels?
Marius: How had he found me here?

<Wanderer walks in>

Marius: How could this broken shell of a man, barely able to carry the weight of his own sword...be the burning terror which drove me to hide here?

<Wanderer sits down>

<Wanderer slams sword into ground>

Marius: He seemed to ... to have demons of his own....that he struggled to contain

<man laughs>

Marius: And he was losing...

<battle scene, with the summoning of demons>

Marius: The horror...as I watched...I became convinced...that I was truely mad
Marius: The terror, the destruction...the...the evil I witnessed
Marius: How else could I have explained them?

Marius: Were these the demons from my dreams..or were they born...within the wanderer.

<battle scene continues>

<battle ends, Wanderer regains control>

<They walk outside the Inn>

Marius: Why did I follow him? .. I don't know
Marius: Why do things happen as they do in dreams
Marius: All I know is that when he beckoned .. I had to follow him
Marius: From that moment, we traveled together east..always...into the east.

Edit:

Cinematics Two "Desert Journey" -> Displayed between Act 1 and Act 2. I've intentionally left out descriptions of what's happening, since it's pretty short and straightforward.

<Act II>

Marius: We travelled East...over the mountains and into the vast desert of broken lands
Marius: As the days past, my companion told me of himself, that he had once been a great warrior
Marius: And that a dark and secret burden now weighed heavily upon him

Marius: We traveled for an eternity...across that barren wasteland
Marius: How long...I couldn't say. And always .. a dark cloud seemed to follow us .. just over the horizon

Marius: Finally the journey ended, we climbed the last bridge
Marius: There below us lay .. our destination
Marius: The shining jewel.. Lut Gholein, with the great sea beyond..

Marius: We made camp there last night, perhaps it was the warm desert wind or the sound of the ocean, but for the first time

in many weeks .. I slept
Marius: However, the dreams returned but these were clearly not my own

<start of dream>

Marius: I beheld a vision of a great man, the mage .. Tal Rasha
Marius: You were there too Tyrael, I remember.. seeing you in my dream
Marius: His breathern had cornered a great demon..Baal, lord of destruction who had been set loose upon the world
Marius: They attempted to imprision the demon within a sacred stone

Marius: Yet, when their attempts failed, Tal Rasha selflessly volunteered to contain the demon within himself, completing the prison.
Marius: He instructed his breathern to bind him within tomb, buried under the sand
Marius: There to wrestle with the demon for all eternity

<end dream>

Wanderer: Now you know what I seek Marius, this is my brother
Wanderer: Sleep now, we set out with the dawn

Marius: The next morning, we walked over the hill toward Lut Gholein. I had no idea then .. of the horrors that were in store for me there



Cinematics Three "Mephisto's Jungle" -> Played between Act 2 and Act 3

<Act III>
Marius: My companion drew in the dank, cold air of the tomb
Marius: It seemed to ... strengthen him

Marius: I stood in the doorway, between light and dark
Marius: What was left of my sanity .. implored me not to enter
Marius: But that voice .. was just a whisper now.

Marius: As we worked our way down, deeper and deeper into the crypt
Marius: I began to .. see a change in my companion
Marius: He seemed to be gaining strength

Marius: I can hardly see in the gloam but my companion .. seemed to know the way

Marius: We came at last to a great hall.

<Bats fly around>
<Both stop breifly>
<Wanderer screams>

Marius: It was then I realised my companion hadn't been gaining strength, he had been losing .. what was left of his humanity

<They both enter the hall>

Marius: He moved with demonic speed and then...then you appeared

Tyrael: Stop
Tyrael; The beast contained herein shall not be set free, not even by you

<Wanderer charges at Tyreal>
<Both go over the edge of the bridge>
<Battle scene starts>

<Marius looks at Baal/Tal Rasha>

Baal/Tal Rasha: Look what they've done to me
Baal/Tal Rasha: Release me...help me

<more of the fight scene>
<Marius moves towards Baal/Tal Rasha, over the bridge>

Baal: Hurry...Please Hurry

<Marius begins to removes the soul stone>

Tyrael: No, don't do it

<Soul Stone is removed>

Tyreal: Fool, you have just ensured the doom of this world, you cannot begin to imagine what you've set in motion this day
Tyreal: Go to the temple of light, in the eastern city of kurast, there you will find the gate to hell opened before you
Tyreal: You must find the courage to step through that gate
Tyreal: Take the stone to the hellforge, where it will be destroyed
Tyreal: Now run, take the stone and run

<Marius running out of the tomb>

Marius: What choice did I have?
Marius: I ran


Cinematics - Orphan - 04-08-2006

Fourth cinematic "Enter Hell" -> Displayed between Act 3 and 4

<Act IV>

Marius: I did as you told me Tyrael ... I found the temple of the Zakarum
Marius: In the deepest recesses of the temple ... I found a dark gathering
Marius: My companion .. the Wanderer .. Tal Rasha .. and a great evil .. who can only be the lord of Hatred himself..Mephisto
Marius: I heard a voice then .. like a thousand needles in my heart

Mephisto: My brothers, at long last we stand re-united
Mephisto: The infernal gate has been prepared, while the time of our final victory is at hand
Mephisto: Let the way to hell be open ... and the evil that was once vanquished shall rise anew
Mephisto: Wrapped in the guise of man shall you walk amongst the innocent, and terror shall consume they that dwell on the earth

Mephisto: The sky shall rain fire, and the seas will become as blood
Mephisto: The righteous shall fall before the wicked
Mephisto: And all creation shall tremble before the burning standards of Hell

Marius: What I saw then was not meant for mortal eyes

Mephisto: The gate stands ready

<Wanderer screams>

Mephisto: Now my young brother, the time has come to assume your true form

<Diablo transform to his true form>

Mephisto: Arise Diablo ... lord of Terror.

<Diablo walks towards the portal>

Mephisto: You are the harbinger of our return Diablo.
Mephisto: Send forth your terror into Hell



Fifth Cinematics ""Terrors End" -> Displayed After completing Act 4

<Epilogue>

<Back in the cell>

Marius: I heard later that he was defeated

<Scene where Diablo dies>

Marius: And that the soulstone was destroyed in hellforge

<Scene cuts back to the cell>

Marius: All except one

<Marius starts sobbing>

Marius: Oh, I failed Tyrael. I couldn't do as you asked
Marius: I couldn't enter that gate.
Marius: Forgive me, Tyrael...forgive me

Cloaked Figure: Marius, give me the stone and all is forgiven

<Marius looks shocked>
<Marius takes out the soul stone from around his neck>

Cloaked Figure: Give it to me, Marius

Marius: Take it, take it take it. I'm glad this is finally over Tyrael, look what the stone has done to me.

<Marius hands over the soul stone>

Cloaked Figure: You haven't failed old man, you've done exactly as you were meant to do, however, I am not the archangel Tyrael

Marius: Baal...noo...no no no no no..no...

Baal: You have done well Marius, now I think you should have your reward

<Baal kills Marius>
<Baal Walks out, the place sets on fire>


Sixth Cinematic "Search for Baal" -> Displayed after the previous cinematic, but before you actually enter Act 5.

<Scene starts in a wide hall>
<Gate opens>
<Man walks outside>
<Banners part to show Baal>

Man: Baal

<Doors close>

Man: BAAL, the gates of Seseron (sp?) have stood for eons beyond rememberance, and you shall not breach them now
Man: Remove your foul demons from our lands, we stand on the side of light
Man: You shall not be allowed to reach Mount Arreat, and that which you seek will not be yours

Baal (shout): ENOUGH

Baal: I shall take your position, into consideration

<Baal thinks for abit>
<Baal sends out some missiles to attack the man, and kill him>

Baal (laughing): Well, it seems your terms are not acceptable, heh hehehe

<Baal's army attacks>


Seventh Cinematics "Destruction's End" -> Displayed after killing Baal.

There's not much talking in here. Tyrael says some stuff, though I cannot translate it. I suspect that it might be latin or something, and I remember there being a discussion on it somewhere at some point, but nothing was ever formulated.
