I've uploaded the files as (
http://www.nineberry.de/ExtRef/Vik.rar) (2 MB)
It's 4 ogg-files (from the museum) and 1 wav-file (from the gradle).
I've used DXIW Sound Drone to extract the files

In m10vic2.ogg we hear extracts from Karras' speech at the end of Thief 2:
Alas, I alone must wait for purification, I must remain alive to greet the builder while all around me all else is pledged [...]
[???]
Who is Karras but the hand of the Builder? What the Builder's will, Karras does.
Praise to Karras.............(and the Builder)

Try playing it backwards

OR, I just had a thaught, if its a museum then its going to have valueble/rare stuff so each recording must be significant. Therefor, the one about screams might be "the last known words of the mechenist prophet karras" and his speech sounds like his personal memoirs or something.

That's an interesting thought. For some reason I assumed that no one's really supposed to be touching the exhibits (and thus, no playing of the viktrolas and their presumably fragile needles and maybe wax cylinders), but no where does it actually say that.

I listened to the screaming again and it freaked me out just as much as it did back then. the one where karass speaks is probably from the Soulforge mission in thief 2, he says that there (you can hear as if people are cheering him in the background, but I don't know what that is)
edit: in the screaming ogg, after the first screming part you can hear (it seems so) karass' voice. he says something... "at last", "it's dead" (?) and you can hear crying afterwards (could be the servants)
edit 2: I just thought of something else. what if the screaming and the crying is from a different "battle" not from Soulforge. I'm not really good whit thief history, maybe someone else is.
edit 3: no! waut! I know what he says. he says "praise karass"... what does that mean?

He also says "prepare", it seems, and "farewell".
