Part 29 of the walkthrough of Mass Effect: Andromeda for the PC.
Transcript
00:00Follow closely. Do not try to explore the city or interact with anyone.
00:08Ephra's guards will use force if necessary.
00:12Understood. Is it okay to ask you questions?
00:16I suppose.
00:21If you're the governor, why do I need to see this Ephra?
00:25He's leader of the resistance.
00:27What's that?
00:28They fight the Kett, and protect us.
00:43I detect unusual levels of electrostatic energy in the Angara.
00:47I think I could take it. This is insane. It belongs in a containment cell.
00:52We're going to try it.
00:54We don't know what you're doing.
00:57Am I that intimidating?
00:59You're an outsider who invaded our home.
01:02We know nothing about you.
01:05I'm not here to cause trouble.
01:06None of the local flora register in my data files. We've encountered an undiscovered ecosystem.
01:30Your city is beautiful.
01:35You're the first outsider to see it.
01:38I'm honored.
01:44What happens if Ephra doesn't like me?
01:47He won't.
01:48But you need to earn his trust.
01:51He's responsible for everyone's safety.
01:53I know what that's like.
01:55You're a leader.
01:57Trying to be.
01:58This is the resistance headquarters.
02:06Ephra is waiting inside.
02:13There are bullies, but this situation is now your fault.
02:17Don't get kicked out, Moran. Not because of them.
02:19But you're telling me to be weak?
02:21No.
02:22I'm telling you to be strong through your cunning and heart.
02:27Okay?
02:30Hey.
02:38It really is the best one in the resistance.
02:41I know.
02:42I know.
02:42Our experience with the Kett makes us naturally distrustful of all aliens.
02:57We've had our own run-ins with the Kett.
03:00Then you really do understand.
03:04When the Archon came to Helios, he demolished our sovereign state.
03:09Took what he wanted, as if we were nothing.
03:13Now, the Kett mercilessly abducts Angara.
03:17Often, we never see our people again.
03:20Come this way.
03:21Ephra is waiting.
03:24Wait, the Kett kidnap you? Steal your people?
03:26And the resistance fights them every day.
03:30With everything we can.
03:32Is it attrition?
03:34What are they after?
03:35You should save your questions for Ephra.
03:39Kadara, be damned.
03:40I won't lose Vold.
03:43Ephra, this is one of the aliens from the Milky Way.
03:48A Pathfinder.
03:50Pathfinder?
03:53It's an aggressive move, coming to Aya.
03:55It wasn't meant that way.
03:59I have an arc full of desperate people counting on me to find them a home before they starve.
04:05Of course, I feel for you and your people.
04:08So, Pathfinder, never mind how you even found us.
04:11Why are you here?
04:12On a hostile planet we call Eos, I explored an ancient structure, a vault, and brought it back online.
04:20It stabilized that planet's environment.
04:23Remnant.
04:24Remnant. Recent intelligence supports that claim.
04:26If I'm right, there's a vault on Aya that's different.
04:31I need to look inside.
04:34I need to look inside.
04:38You're right.
04:39There's a vault out there, but it was shut years ago and the entrance hidden.
04:44We can't help you, the Moshai could.
04:49She's our most revered scientist and elder.
04:53She knows this vault.
04:55But now the Kett have her, and our rescue attempts failed.
04:59She's lost to us.
05:02And you.
05:07There must be another way.
05:10How can I convince you?
05:11Can I offer help?
05:13Arrogant.
05:14I don't know you, let alone trust you.
05:17Why would I want your help?
05:18Of course.
05:20Ephra, I feel...
05:24Ephra, what this alien says is extraordinary.
05:27The Moshai would want us to be brave, and not let this chance pass.
05:35Jal, you talk too much.
05:38Let me assess this, alien.
05:41I'll be your eyes.
05:43I know you can spare me.
05:46Go if you want.
05:47But when she tries to kill you, be prepared to strike first.
05:52I'm Jal Amadarav.
05:54I'll be your envoy, through Angaran space.
06:00Thank you for trusting me.
06:03I don't.
06:04But, I can always kill you in your sleep.
06:08Good to know.
06:08I've organized my analysis of Aya.
06:20Shall I relay it to the Nexus?
06:22Definitely.
06:25Be careful, have you?
06:28No, I will.
06:30You really think the Moshai is alive?
06:31I'm sure of it.
06:34Don't kill yourself bringing her home.
06:37No promises.
06:42I'm here to assist you.
06:44I am Enro Bosan, assistant to Governor Paranchai.
06:48You're free to explore this area, but the city is off limits.
06:52Until that changes, I'll be your liaison.
06:55How may I help you, Pathfinder?
06:56Sounded like you and Jal know each other.
07:02Our families are related.
07:04You sound nothing alike.
07:06We have multiple worlds.
07:08Our culture is complex.
07:10I'd like to know more.
07:12Earn our trust, and maybe you will.
07:17When am I allowed to visit the city again?
07:20That's not for me to decide.
07:22Who will?
07:23Your boss?
07:24Or Ephra?
07:24Governor Shai has jurisdiction over Aya.
07:27She will authorize your entrance if you earn Ephra's trust.
07:32A museum curator and a colony supplier asked to meet you.
07:35They're waiting nearby.
07:37The Kett swayed us with words.
07:39Now we judge outsiders by their actions.
07:44What can you tell me about your other worlds?
07:47Life on them is hard.
07:49The people harder.
07:50Every day is a struggle to survive.
07:52Why not bring everyone here?
07:54We will not abandon any more worlds to the Kett.
07:57And Aya cannot support all of us.
08:03You don't just stand here waiting to answer my questions, right?
08:07I assist the governor in all matters.
08:09While you're here, this is my priority.
08:11Pretty far outside your normal job, huh?
08:15I did not begin this day expecting to speak with a... you.
08:20Nice save.
08:22It's been a long day.
08:24Thanks for your time, Enro.
08:27Of course.
08:35Stars above.
08:36It's you.
08:38I was hoping to get a chance to speak with you.
08:40You left your home to cross dark space.
08:43Is it true you can never go back?
08:45Yeah.
08:47This is home now.
08:48To take such a risk and give up your old life.
08:52Why did you do it?
08:56I believed in what the initiative stood for.
08:58I still do.
08:59That's noble of you.
09:01I'm not sure I could make the same choice.
09:04My turn for a question.
09:06Do I get to know your name?
09:07Oh, of course.
09:10I'm Avela Kajar, curator for the Repository of History.
09:13We study relics of our past, try to piece together what we lost in the Scourge.
09:18And, the truth is, there was something I wanted to talk to you about.
09:22Pathfinder, how much do you know about our history?
09:28I still have a lot to learn.
09:30Centuries ago, the Scourge targeted my people.
09:33Our ships were the first to go dark.
09:35Many of those ships went down over Havaral.
09:37The wilds of that planet are filled with history.
09:41A scientist on Havaral just contacted me with a new navpoint of an intact crash site.
09:45A huge opportunity.
09:47But with Remnant patrolling the area, we can't get close enough.
09:50Not like you can.
09:52How do you know about me and the Remnant?
09:54I have friends in the Resistance.
09:56They heard your conversation with Ephra.
09:58I know it's a lot to ask, but you have a ship and the means to get past the Remnant.
10:02Without your help, I'm stuck.
10:07You're trusting your history with an outsider?
10:10I know what people say about you, but I don't agree.
10:13I think you're here to help.
10:14I am.
10:15Now's your chance to prove it.
10:17You want to earn Aya's respect, right?
10:19Recovering our past will go a long way.
10:21I don't think Ephra would be too happy with this arrangement.
10:28Ephra doesn't have to know.
10:29And if he finds out, he can direct his anger at me.
10:32Takes guts to stand up to him.
10:34I'd face worse to get a piece of our history back.
10:39I've always wanted to give archaeology a try.
10:41I was hoping you'd say that.
10:43If you find anything, I'll be here.
10:46Thank you, Pathfinder.
10:47I've organized my analysis of Aya.
11:06Shall I relay it to the Nexus?
11:07Definitely.
11:17Aya.
11:39I love it.
11:42I love it.
11:43I love it.
11:44I love it too.
14:50And now we have another mouth to feed, whatever he eats.
14:53Do the translators not work?
15:01They work.
15:02I know we're improvising as we go, but let's remember that there is Pathfinder team protocol.
15:10Don't think I got that handbook.
15:12Rider, we followed our best lead here and now we don't even have that.
15:15Jal has offered to do what he can to help us access the vault on Aya.
15:20How do we do that when we're leaving the planet it's on?
15:23That's a fair point.
15:26Jal, seriously.
15:29Settle down.
15:30Rider's right.
15:32There's Nangara right here.
15:33Let's hear from the new guy.
15:34One day, about 80 years ago, the Archon and the Ket arrived in Helios and the horror began.
15:53They declared war?
15:55Nothing so easy to define or fight.
15:59The Ket kidnap Angara.
16:01Their people disappear without a trace.
16:04What if they were us?
16:04Sure, I'll fight Ket all day long, but that's no plan.
16:11I agree.
16:12We need to get into that vault, Rider.
16:14Surprisingly, I'm with PB.
16:16Our own mission has to take priority.
16:19We have a plan.
16:21Kind of.
16:22Pretty solid.
16:23Jal?
16:24The resistance is stretched thin.
16:27I was tasked with traveling to two of our worlds at our briefing this morning.
16:32And you'll accompany me?
16:36Because?
16:37Because then, Ephra will see you as trustworthy.
16:42You want that.
16:44Jal's told me about these two worlds.
16:46Havaral and Vold.
16:48Before the Scourge disaster, Vold was a thriving planet of billions.
16:54A shining center of technology and life.
16:58And now?
16:59It's the center of our ground war against the Ket.
17:05Our resistance base is fighting Ket Command for control of the planet.
17:11What about the other?
17:12Havaral is the birthplace of the Angara.
17:17It's started to degrade to become wild and dangerous.
17:22We suspect a remnant.
17:26Now we're talking.
17:28We've recently lost contact with our scientists.
17:33Still don't get how any of this helps us.
17:37I do.
17:38Help us, or rather help me.
17:40And I'll vouch for you, right?
17:41Because Jal wants inside Aya's vault too.
17:45Pathfinder, it's your call.
17:46Okay, yes.
17:53I appreciate the vote of confidence.
17:55Maybe more like optimism.
17:58Confidence?
17:59You'll get there.
18:01Jal, give Kelo the NALF points for both planets.
18:04Let's do this.
18:05What do you make of the Angara, Dom?
18:24Still compiling my first impressions.
18:27But even their body language is so...
18:30emotional.
18:30I can't wait for my first session with Jal.
18:34Try not to scare him away, huh?
19:00Go ahead.
21:30I'm picking up something.
21:32Probes launched.
21:38Tracking a huge mineral deposit.
21:42Tracking a huge mineral deposit.
