Part 52 of the walkthrough of Mass Effect: Andromeda for the PC.
Transcript
00:00Pathfinder, it would be wise to speak with me before engaging in trade.
00:19I never thought I'd see the Moshai again, least of all thanks to you.
00:23Welcome to the marketplace. I am Arbiter Ranul.
00:26I enforce correct contact between merchants and customers.
00:30Resolving any disputes.
00:32As the first outsider to enter the city, you are ignorant of our laws.
00:36We should change that.
00:40Who decides what happens to people who break the law?
00:43It depends on the grievance. I settle minor offenses right here.
00:47More serious ones require a tribunal.
00:54Where I'm from, the biggest trade law is don't cheat. Is it different here?
00:58I suspect we define cheating differently. What is unfair changes based on perspective.
01:04Visit me for all your day-to-day needs.
01:07I don't want to cause any trouble. How do I learn your laws?
01:11I'll transmit a full readout. Familiarize yourself with the contents.
01:16Personal responsibility is a core foundation of our society.
01:19We expect it from everyone.
01:21Understood.
01:22Please visit my colleagues in the governor's office and the resistance headquarters.
01:27They'll teach you about our culture and what it means to walk freely among us.
01:32Your understanding is critical.
01:34It would be unfortunate if you accidentally violated our laws.
01:37by whatever reason.
01:38You don't understand what's happening.
01:39Babylon could be a good deal.
01:43See you.
01:44It might run through your agreement.
01:45Bad Jedi should be a good deal.
01:47try toaz away your rules for this.
01:51No reason why you leave the law.
01:52Right now.
01:58I won't keep this up.
02:02Right now.
02:05Right now.
02:06Are you all right, Omda?
02:17Fine. Arbitrating a dispute between Council members.
02:22Pathfinder? As you can imagine, your arrival raise concerns from highest people.
02:29It'll take a long time to trust strangers again.
02:32Which is why they want the Nexus to listen to them.
02:34We've set up terminals in the city so people can leave messages for your people on the Nexus.
02:39I'd appreciate if you'd take a look and forward their communications to your people.
02:50Arbiter Renav told me to expect you. I've prepared a datapad detailing our laws. Read it fully.
03:04The Moshe will be waiting for you at the Vault.
03:06The Moshe will be waiting for you at the Vault.
03:09The Moshe will be waiting for you at the Vault.
03:16The Moshe will be waiting for you at the Vault.
03:19The Moshe will be waiting for you at the Vault.
03:21While I'm here, maybe we can talk?
03:23Of course. I owe you that. When I first escorted you through our city, I wasn't sure it was the right thing. But you proved I was wrong to doubt.
03:30No. More than that, you didn't have to save the captives from exultation. I wonder if you realize what that meant to us.
03:37We're in this together. The Initiative wants to help.
03:38I want to believe it. You're so different from the Kett.
03:39I don't know what it means to us.
03:43I'm not sure what it means to us.
03:46I'm not sure what it means to us.
03:47No. More than that, you didn't have to save the captives from exultation. I wonder if you realize what that meant to us.
03:56We're in this together. The Initiative wants to help.
04:02I want to believe it. You're so different from the Kett.
04:06What can I do for you?
04:13I'm hoping you can help me get on Efra's good side.
04:16If I knew how to do that, my job would be much simpler.
04:20Sometimes it seems like you two don't get along at all. And other times...
04:25He's a brilliant tactician and inspiring leader. We just disagree on what's best for our people.
04:33He believes secrecy and isolation keep us safe.
04:36What do you believe?
04:38We can't defeat the Kett alone. And neither can your Initiative.
04:43I have a few questions about your culture.
04:47I'm happy to answer them.
04:49Don't take this the wrong way, but this isn't your only city, right?
04:54Not at all.
04:56Vold and Hvaral both have several large population centers.
05:00Aya has numerous residential areas similar to this.
05:04Are these places open for visitors?
05:06In time, perhaps.
05:08I've noticed that you, Efra, and Jarl all speak with different accents.
05:15When the Scourge first struck, there were many Angaran worlds. They were separated for centuries.
05:21We developed divergent cultures and dialects.
05:26Efra was born on Vold, and Jarl is from Hvaral.
05:30What about you?
05:31The Kett left my homeworld in ruins. Those who survived were forced to flee.
05:37We found a refuge on Aya. My family helped settle this world.
05:43Aya seems important to the Angara.
05:47Aya is paradise. This world is a gift. We created the Vassals so everyone could enjoy this place. If only for a short time.
05:57The Vassal?
05:59The time of change.
06:01Aya's resources are too limited for our entire population to live here.
06:06We each earn the privilege of spending a few years on Aya.
06:11When our time is up, we leave to make room for someone new.
06:15The cycle repeats throughout our lives.
06:18Will you have to leave?
06:20Someday. For now, Aya needs me.
06:24Your people revere the Moshai. What did she do to earn that?
06:33After the Scourge, our civilization was in ruins.
06:37Those who led the rebuilding were thinkers, experts and inventors.
06:42The Moshai is the greatest scientific mind of our generation.
06:46She led us to a new age of technological innovation.
06:50When the Kett attacked, she studied their technology.
06:54Learned their tactics.
06:56You owe your survival to her.
06:58We owe her everything.
07:00And we'll do anything to protect her.
07:03So what do you do for fun around here?
07:07The Tavitan is a popular spot for recreational activity.
07:12Right. But what do you do? Can't work all the time.
07:16Productivity is the best form of relaxation.
07:19And it's also a great way to get stressed out.
07:22You sound like my brothers. All ten of them.
07:26Ten?
07:27And eight sisters. They're not allowed to bother me at work.
07:35What's it like being responsible for a whole planet?
07:38I suspect it's like being the pathfinder.
07:41Some days, it's a burden.
07:44Most of the time, I know I'm where I should be.
07:47How did you become governor?
07:49Do your people elect leaders by popular vote?
07:52If by vote, you mean argue loudly until one candidate remains?
07:56Then yes.
07:58I got here because I was willing to endure
08:01and fight for the obligations that come with my office.
08:07Is there time in your busy schedule to meet someone special?
08:11Everyone is special to me. In their own way.
08:15Not what I meant.
08:17Oh. No. That isn't a priority right now. Someday, maybe.
08:26I sense tension between your government and the Resistance. Who's actually in charge?
08:31Efra likes giving orders. Right until the actual work of running a city starts.
08:37The Resistance is good at protecting us from the Kett. But our people need more.
08:42I've learned to indulge Efra's need for control. Just often enough to maintain my own.
08:51Ten brothers and eight sisters. You have a big family.
08:55I've always thought of it as average. How many siblings do you have?
08:59A brother. Scott.
09:01What happened to the others?
09:03Our parents only had two children. Underachievers.
09:07That sounds... relaxing.
09:12When my family gets together, the noise is like standing next to our largest waterfall.
09:18My mother says I became governor so people would have to listen to me.
09:22Is she right?
09:24Always.
09:30Thanks for your time.
09:31Ishari, Pathfinder.
09:39Oh.
09:41Excellent.
09:58Exaltation is just another word for how to kill us.
10:25And if you're wrong, if we've been killing for them without realising you?
10:30I saw a Kett up close when they attacked. It was nothing like our people.
10:38The Kett weaponised their victims to make you hesitate.
10:42And when the Kett begin to exalt your people, what will you do then?
10:46Thank you for that, Insight Pathfinder. The issue facing us is complex. Come my friends, deliberate with me.
10:55The road car? Why would she go up to them?
11:18It's about them!
11:20I don't know.
11:50I don't know.
12:20I don't know.
12:22I don't know.
12:24I don't know.
12:26If we used your system, we'd never have a food shortage.
12:29If you want, I can send a few samples to your ship. Your people can study it.
12:34The Nexus would love that.
12:36Consider it done.
12:37What does Tavaton mean? My translator won't pick it up.
12:44It depends on the context. If it's a person, it means an old friend. If it's a location, like this, it's more a place you could bring someone home to.
12:53What if you need to meet your Tavaton at the Tavaton?
12:57It's not so hard to understand. I'm sure your language has its quirks.
13:02Don't get me started.
13:02I'd like a drink.
13:06That's all for now.
13:22We'll come back anytime.
13:23Let's try not to make it worse.
13:39Don't worry about me. They're busy glaring a core for some reason.
13:43Let me tell you about Rincon.
13:46They should put Jarl in every room.
13:57Did he ever call back to you?
13:59Helping the Mushai opened a lot of doors around here.
14:03Most Angara still keep their distance, though.
14:09Imagine seeing a Krogan for the first time?
14:12Maybe if I smile more, show my teeth.
14:15Something tells me that won't help.
14:34I'm so glad you're back. I'm in one piece this time.
14:38I was in one piece last time. A little dented, but in one piece.
14:42You hit that wall so hard, you had amnesia for two weeks.
14:47Technically, I was still in one piece.
14:49I was in one piece.
14:55I was in one piece.
15:10Ryder, you are the subject of a detailed scan by an Angara standing nearby.
15:14Maybe I should introduce myself.
15:44Maybe I should introduce myself.
15:50I need to know what I'm doing.
15:52I need something to say.
15:54I need to know what I'm doing.
15:57After that, I have a good chance.
16:02I will be here.
16:06I will be there.
16:08I'm ahead.
16:10Ryder, take a break and enjoy the view with me.
16:16Well, what do you think?
16:19I could get used to this.
16:21We take turns living here.
16:23You can see why.
16:26I love pretty much everything about it.
16:32I love the air, the breeze.
16:35And one day we'll have more places like this.
16:40I have faith.
16:56Hello there.
16:58I'm working.
17:01You scanned me pretty hard.
17:03That wasn't your way of saying, welcome, stranger?
17:06I wanted to be discreet.
17:08Noted.
17:09What's your interest in me?
17:11You're an alien on my home world.
17:13Why wouldn't I be interested?
17:15You could have asked.
17:16Fine.
17:18Will you submit to a full spectrum analysis of your biology?
17:22You haven't even told me your name.
17:24Danfra.
17:26Biological researcher.
17:27This is my home.
17:31Are you looking for something specific?
17:33We share many external similarities.
17:36I want to learn if that holds true internally.
17:42Can't fault you for being curious.
17:44Scan away.
17:47I didn't think you'd comply.
17:49I'm full of surprises.
17:51That you are.
17:53When we face extinction, family is our final comfort.
17:58Do you understand that?
18:00I came to this galaxy with my family.
18:03I lost my father on the day I arrived.
18:05But you still carry on his legacy.
18:08He knew that, in the end.
18:10Family is everything.
18:12Not only the one we have now, but the ones that follow us.
18:16What will your family look like in five generations?
18:19Ten?
18:19How many of you will there be?
18:22You're worried there will be more of us than you.
18:25I have 23 grandchildren.
18:28I want to know what their grandchildren will inherit.
18:31Goodbye, Pathfinder.
18:32Bye, Pathfinder.
18:44Bye.
18:45Bye.
18:45Bye.
18:47Bye.
18:48Bye.
18:50Bye.
19:00Bye.
19:01Bye.
19:02Bye.
19:02Okay, let's go.
19:32Okay, let's go.
20:02Give your team a chance to pull it off.
20:06We fight best when the odds are against us.
20:09That'd be your right.
20:10This is the hardest part of my job.
20:12Thank you for the advice, Pathfinder.
20:14Let's go over this again, everyone.
