Why Is This Sith Lord Hiding His Voice?

In the trailer , the Sith can be heard in a representative - over , ominously saying,“The Jedi live in a dream … but an acolyte kills the aspiration . “In improver to this being rather fateful , the voice - over is enthralling because the Sith is clearly using a voice modulator .
