Universal Translator.. which is possible (it would also explain why more alien beings do not speak "English").

the Universal Translator could be worked upon using backward-engineering of technologies from the Hidden Truths (perhaps a "lost" relic).

we've decided Warcry happened in the past, shaping the world as it is "now" (which is why we have superhumans, prejudice and advanced magi-tech / other-realm travel etc) (may also explain hidden underground places and so on.. make the "Earth" a post-apocalyptic setting.. that way we can rewrite canon much easier.. also the general idea is Voice is thus a spoken enemy rather than encountered.. Voice and his invasion live on as legends / warnings.. until he returns at some point - which would be perfect for keeping Voice as a Dreaded trope.
