Day 17
That
was a nice reprieve. We landed at the station out in the terminus systems that
my contacts provided to help us. We spent the time gathering information and
supplies.
Aliya
and KQO used this time to gather the information I requested about Nienna.
Aliya has some nerve in thinking to withhold, and convince KQO to withhold some
of the information from me. She said that she withheld the information due to
its private nature and she thought that I didn’t need to know it. I’m just
going to have to trust that the Quarian is right, and that any of the
information being withheld won’t harm my family. It is a hard thought to let
that go, especially since we’ve really only known each other for such a short
time. I can’t let anything happen to my family. And if anything does as a
result from this… let’s just say that Aliya will never seen Rannoch again, or
any other planet for that matter… but, I’ll have to trust my squad, that
they’ll make the right decisions. We won’t accomplish anything if we are at
each other’s throats.
Also
while at the station, I was approach by a Lieutenant from Palaven with some
very disturbing news: Palaven is under siege by Asari forces, and the Council
is behind the Asari action, the bastard of a Turian Councillor included. They
say that a rebel faction of the Hierarchy has taken over Palaven and they are
trying to ‘aid’ the situation, even worse, there are over a million Asari on
Palaven and the Primarch is fairly certain that they are all commandos. The
Primarch doesn’t want to start a war, as that would undoubtedly bring the
Reapers in, which everyone would be glad if that was avoided.
I
presented this to the crew and we tried to think of a way to bring about a
peaceful (well, as peaceful as we can) solution. KQO gained permission from the
Relay AI to allow the relay in the Apien Crest to transport cargo ships from
Irune to Palaven to alleviate the embargo. Lúthien was able to gather that the
blockade around Palaven was overkill, as far as going four or five relays deep;
and that the Asari republics were having a bit of a tantrum with respects to
the Turian’s demands once I informed them of their actions on Omega. The
Primarch asked me to find a way to expose the Council and essentially stop this
madness and help the Turian people, and the rest of the galaxy from their
depravity.
That’s
a pretty tall order, but I’m sure that this squad, these people, can do it.
