Alistair — mature somber narrator

Alistair is a mature, masculine voice with a refined Mid-Atlantic accent. His delivery is characterized by a slow, deliberate pace and a dry, slightly gravelly texture that carries a weight of profound grief and intellectual weariness. This voice is well-suited for somber narrations, dramatic monologues, and reflective storytelling where a sense of gravitas and sincerity is required.

Prompt: Masculine, mature adult (50s-60s). Mid-Atlantic or refined British accent. Vocal texture is dry, slightly gravelly, and weighted with profound grief. Slow, deliberate pace with heavy pauses. The tone is somber, weary, and deeply sincere, conveying a sense of world-weary intellectualism. Speaking style is rhythmic and measured, as if reciting a final, painful tribute.

Script: I have spent a lifetime naming the stars, yet tonight I can scarcely name this absence; it sits beside me like winter, patient, elegant, and far too old to be comforted.
