It's been a while since I've done any dungeons. IIRC you should get a mail when you reach certain level milestones. I think Ascalonian Catacombs is the first one and it requires level 30. So you might still be a few levels from that. The mail sent to your character should have a button to show you about where the dungeon is. Each dungeon has a Story Mode and Explorable Mode. Explorable mode is unlocked by story mode and gives several paths to choose from. Explorable modes are usually a little higher level than story mode. Ascalonian Catacombs is level 30 for Story Mode and 35 for Explorable mode for example. Each dungeon has it's own location (right next to a waypoint) and completing them(in explorable mode) gives that dungeon's reward currency which can be used to get the weapons/armor themed to that dungeon. There are other items to be purchased with dungeon currency as well. As for how to clear them: each dungeon is a bit different. Some have interesting/difficult mechanics to learn about and utilize to win through. Your best bet there is to pay attention while doing the dungeon, go with someone experienced at the dungeon and follow the advice they give (ask for info) or read a walkthrough guide. Different paths in explorable can play a lot differently. Dungeons can be a bit of a step up in difficulty for newer players to the game. It can be a bit of a learning curve. Teamwork and coordination makes the runs easier (though you can still muddle through without it in a group, it's just harder) and in my opinion more enjoyable. You'll probably want the best gear for your level when doing a dungeon. Kadsik is right about not having to worry about your gear too often for regular PvE, but dungeons are a little different. Don't worry about rushing to or through the dungeons. Because of level scaling you can come back and do dungeons you qualify for at any time. Waiting and coming back with a fully trained profession is fine. Coming back with full gear on a max level character is also fine. The choice is yours. Since death isn't too bad in this game, feel free to go to and step into any dungeon you like solo just to see the starting areas and get an idea about them. So what do you get from all this? Lots of different things. As mentioned dungeon currency is your reward for completing explorable paths. Each dungeon has it's own set of weapons and armor with skins themed to that dungeon. You can preview those skins at the relevant dungeon vendor (it's been a while but IIRC there is an NPC or two in LA that have all the relevant skins, just right click it in there list and hit "preview" to see what it would look like on your character). The weapons have various stat combos so pick the best one for you. The skin will be unlocked and be able to apply to any weapon you want using transmutation charges (rewarded for completing any map and some daily log in rewards) same goes for armor.There are also a number of achievements related to dungeon clearing. Check the relevant section on the hero panel. Okay, just noticed how much I've rambled. Hope this helps and happy hunting!

I watched a breakdown from Woodenpotato on youtube and he referenced a tweet from a member of the development staff. The tweet says the voice is a NEW character. So not Albax or anyone else we've met so far.

Might be Albax talking to Kuunavang.
