00:00I don't know
00:30Hello Pathfinder any good news for me I picked up this figure earlier it might be Angaran this
00:55this is unfamiliar to me it does resemble an Angara but it looks so strange it's clearly
01:02centuries old is it an artistic interpretation or is this what we really look like implications
01:09Pathfinder you may have discovered our earliest artifact yet could it be a relic from another
01:16culture the technique and material matches other Angaran relics and you found it in one of our
01:21worlds but perhaps the depiction isn't an Angara it could be a deity of some sort you've given me
01:27more to study than I ever expected I've got a lot of work ahead thank you for your help
01:32Pathfinder I'll let you know if I discover anything
02:02you
02:28Ryder
05:04It's heresy to hear that the Exiles are anything but filthy...
05:07Well, Exiles.
05:08Sorry, I have to cut this short.
05:10I need to prep for a meeting.
05:12Apparently some colonists want to talk about the series.
05:15Maybe they'll be willing to go on camera.
05:34We'll have to cut this short.
05:39I'm going to separate this short.
05:44If we wanted to cut this short, I would be able to do some work on camera.
05:50The use of firearms on the Nexus is against initiative regulations.
06:10This is amazing. I can't believe we need it to.
06:14I'm glad we did.
06:15Convictive murderer, Noken Rensis.
06:21Pardoned after an investigation by the kingdom of Pat, but...
06:24Okay.
06:25Okay.

06:42Okay.
06:43Okay.
06:44Okay.
06:45Thank you for your contribution.
07:15Okay.
07:17I don't know.
07:47Good morning.
07:51Oh hello, Pathfinder.
08:17As sleepers wake from stasis, the initiative urgently requires blood, tissue, and DNA donations.
08:30See a medic if you think you may be eligible.
08:33This is HNS.
08:39I'm sorry, Lana. They're just trying to boost our morale.
08:47I'm sorry.
08:51This is the main thing.
08:55This is the main thing.
08:59I'm sorry.
09:01I've been the first game.
09:05I'm sorry.
09:07I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
09:11I'm sorry.
09:15All personnel, be advised, Turian colonists are incoming.
09:37Colonial Affairs, please advise Director Tan of your status.
09:42As sleepers wake from stasis, the initiative urgently requires blood, tissue, and DNA donations.
09:50See a medic if you think you may be eligible. This is HNS.
10:12Rider, one of your father's memories is available.
10:30Let's see it.
10:33A moment. There is an added layer of security.
10:36What was it Gian Garson said? The code word is Vulcrum?
10:41That worked. This is the last memory your father encrypted from the final planning stages of Hyperion's departure.
10:48Castus, thanks for calling. Not a lot of people still admit to knowing me.
10:57I owe you. Those were good days on the Citadel, Alec. I checked with my son Garrus. He works there now. C-Sec.
11:05And?
11:06He says the Council thinks Commander Shepard's story is bogus.
11:10Uh-huh. But?
11:12Privately, I've heard they're starting to wander.
11:15This threat? They're called Reapers?
11:19Shepard's word for them. Something about a cycle. An extinction event that happens every 50,000 years, galaxy-wide.
11:27And supposedly the alone clock's about to go off again.
11:31Unbelievable.
11:33I know. But according to Garrus, Shepard's as level-headed as they come. Takes after you. And it's heaven.
11:42So, if the Commander says these Reapers are coming, I don't want to be around to see them.
11:47Thanks, Castus.
11:49Take care.
11:55Yes?
11:57I checked around. There might be something to this.
12:00If there is a war, the scramble for resources will be on a scale we've never seen before. The chaos will be monumental.
12:09We should accelerate our timetable.
12:11Though we'll keep the reason quiet. No need to alarm anyone. But the arcs must be underway before any fighting starts. We can't get caught in the crossfire.
12:23Agreed.
12:24Is there something else?
12:26Years ago you mentioned salvation for a lot of people. You knew this was coming.
12:34I knew something was coming. In theory. Shepard made it real.
12:40And now that you're right.
12:41We'll need a new home. We're going to be all that's left of civilization.
12:46Sam.
12:47Yes, Pathfinder?
12:49Track down my kids. Tell them their old man needs to talk. It's urgent. And how is Ellen?
12:55She remains in stasis. As you hoped, it has suspended the progress of her disease.
13:01Make sure her pod is on the Hyperion. Don't use her real name. I'll tell the kids when the time is right.
13:08Sam, transfer Pathfinder access. Encrypt memories. There's still hope for your mother.
13:24Mom is here? Alive?
13:30Alec blocked all knowledge of this memory. I now recall his directive to put Ellen into stasis. He hoped it would hold further progress of her disease until a cure could be found.
13:41Sam? This is the best news I've heard in a long time.
13:47It is indeed cause for optimism. Although Alec did not want to raise hopes prematurely. This is the reason you were made Pathfinder. To see the process through.
13:57Where's Mom now?
13:59Here on the Hyperion. Ellen is in a stasis pod under a false name. Elizabeth Riley.
14:06So this was Dad's plan?
14:09Alec could not live with the thought of Ellen recovering. Only to discover you had died. He sacrificed himself to ensure you and Scott could one day be reunited with your mother.
14:20He was also concerned that what he knew about the Reapers and the Benefactor remain secret. He entrusted you with this knowledge. Additional logs with pertinent information are now unlocked in Alec's quarters.
14:34Now we know what Jean Garson meant. That something big spooked the Benefactor. It was these Reapers. What do you know about them?
14:43A Spectra operative in the Milky Way, Commander Shepard, launched an investigation in 2183 into the existence of an ancient race known as Reapers. According to Shepard's information, the Reapers invade the Milky Way every 50,000 years to destroy any advanced organic life. Allegedly this cycle has been occurring for millions of years. Shepard claimed the Reapers return was imminent.
15:08But why was Jean Garson murdered? Recall Garson's words about the Benefactor. Now they're moving a hundred thousand of us to Andromeda. I hope it's all for good. But I have my doubts.
15:23What does that mean? Who was or is the Benefactor? Unknown.
15:30That was over six hundred years ago. Was Shepard right? Did the Reapers come back? Additional logs in your father's quarters have unlocked. Their implications are troubling. Your father believed it prudent that you have this information should anything happen to him.
15:50Got it. I need to go find Mom.
15:53Got it. I need to go find Mom.
16:11Your father's personal logs.
16:13We've just arrived in Andromeda. Before the rest of the Hyperion wakes up, I've checked our comms for any signals from the Milky Way. Looks like sometime in 2186. Everything went to hell. We got out just ahead of it. Commander Shepard was right. And so was our mysterious Benefactor.
16:34This is Paladin command to all Turian units within range. Under catastrophic Reaper attack. Primark Fedorian is dead. Found units are searching for the next in succession. We'll advise when... Everybody get down!
16:50Get down!
16:58Alliance personnel. Please stand by for an emergency flash traffic message.
17:04This is a galaxy wide alert for all human territories. Fleet Admiral Stephen Hackett has declared threat condition Saber 1. Enemy presence confirmed in Soul System. Earth under Reaper attack. I say again, Reaper attack is underway.
17:16The instructions to follow on coded channel Crimson Tacit. By God's sake.
17:21Hello, Alec. This is Liara Tassoni, and the year is 2186. I don't know if you'll even receive this message, but we corresponded years ago. I remember you spoke about a plan to settle Andromeda. I don't know if your arcs made it out of the Milky Way, but...
17:44The worst has happened here. I'm with Commander Shepard and a brave crew. We're trying to build a weapon to turn the tide, but...
17:51I fear that the civilization you remember, the people of the Milky Way as you knew them, could be gone forever.
17:59You may be all that's left. Please, don't forget us. Keep us alive in your hearts. And tell your children of the wonders that once were.
18:11On behalf of the crew of the Normandy SR2, this is Dr. Liara Tassoni, signing off.
18:18Alec, this is Gian Garson. For the record, year 2185. It's about Fulcrum. I'm on the Nexus and we're going into stasis for the voyage. Looks like you're already asleep.
18:33I'm very uncomfortable with our benefactor. And the fact that we still don't know who they are. And all these lives in our hands. I should have done something sooner.
18:42This is all very troubling, Alec. Let's talk as soon as you reach Andromeda.
18:48I have the same concerns as you. In all likelihood, the Milky Way... Well, something terrible happened there. At least the benefactor spared us from that. But why keep hiding? Something's off.
19:03But we've got bigger problems at the moment. Habitat 7 may be a bust. Finding a home is all that matters now.
19:21I'm securing these Milky Way reports. This is the only copy and I don't want it getting out. Whatever happened was 600 years ago. Someday we might break the news to everyone if the time's right. I guess we always knew there was no going back.
19:42There's no going back.
20:12There's nothing to HNS.
