We've also included a video of Sir Michael Gambon discuss his role as Varen Aquilarios:

✭✭Be it Varen Aquilarios, or Albus Dumbledore…
Michael Gambon brought life to the roles he took throughout his journey and created icons. Having grown up with Harry Potter and enjoying a decade of his performance throughout my time playing The Elder Scrolls Online, I’m grateful.
Truly an artist, missing him won’t be a problem because he lives on through his work, and will continue to for decades to come.18 -

✭Farewell, Vestige.
Your voice carries us through the depths of Coldhabor and back into the light.
Michael Gambon was an amazing artist and he will truly be missed.

✭✭✭Very sad news.
And if, should there ever be future content where The Prophet’s voice is needed, please do not re-record the old lines with a new actor, as has been done before when voices were replaced for characters. Leave his be in memory, out of respect.
Or, perhaps, The Prophet shall be left to rest, however The Vestige decided in the end…PS5 NA. GM of The PTK's - a free trading guild (CP 500+). Also a werewolf, bites are free when they're available. PSN = DragonRacer1311 -
gamer559✭✭✭I remember when I first bought the game back in 2016 and being amazed by hearing familiar voices like Sir Michael Gambon, John Cleese, Lynda Carter, Jennifer Hale, Jim Ward, Peter Stormare and Liam O'Brien ( I could spend all day going over the cast of the game). Such iconic actors giving life to these characters in a video game. Without spoiling it for those who may not have finished the base game main story, the ending was always a tough one for me. Now it will be tougher for any additional characters I make for the ending.

✭Farewell mr Gambon. Apart from the Prophet, I'll remember him most for the mini series "Longitude". A story about a watchmaker who is trying to win a challenge set by the British government in the 18th century to find a method to determine one's position on open sea.Please stop making requests for game features.

- Varen Aquilarios at the end of God of Schemes (if Sai Sahan was sacrificed) and after completing the Orsinium storyline."I have no more prophecies to impart, no more strategies to suggest, no more riddles to ponder. I am just a man. A flawed man. And perhaps that is just as it should be."
"My time in this world is at an end. I must take my place in the Immortal Plane. Farewell, old friend."
- Cadwell's eulogy of Varen Aquilarios at the end of God of Schemes (if he was sacrificed)."He's still with you, you know. A part of you, really. And perhaps he can continue to serve the land and the people he gave his life to save, through you."
I have to thank not only Sir Michael Gambon for taking on this amazing role, but ZOS for casting him over 10 years ago. I cannot imagine someone else to set us on our journey across Tamriel and the planes of Oblivion.Edited by Maitsukas on September 29, 2023 9:39AMPC-EU @maitsukas

That video was a good watch, I hadn’t seen it since before the game release.

His voice was perfect and enjoy his performance in this nearly as much as Layer Cake and Harry Potter.

I heard this word in 2014. Didn't think so deeply about this word in that time, but....
Suddenly, I start to feel this caption just like the philosophy of "my life".
I don't have any of confidence to keep walking in the "light" though...There're so many of dark in my life.
But, I'll try to keep walking in the light as possible as I can.My playing time Mon-Friday UTC13:00-16:00 [PC-NA] CP over2000 now.

It's not a bad thing really. We could be the infinite photon. Never truly experiencing the passage of time. Since its creation to its end, it will never know it traveled. It will never know what it went through. Life can experience the changes in the universe and also view the journey of the photons. Love the process of life. No matter what length it is. He's in the memories of millions due to his work. Although his physical self isn't here, we have bits and pieces of him throughout his works that we can revisit. Whether an interview or acting.2
