He knew that somewhere off... well, screen... Ash was dying. And there was nothing he could do about it.
"I applaud you," Saren said as he approached Shepard. "My geth were utterly convinced the salarians were the real threat. An impressive diversion. Of course, it was all for nothing. I can't let you disrupt what I've accomplished here. You can't possibly understand what's really at stake."
Shepard inhaled a sharp breath. "Why are you doing this?"
"You've seen the vision from the beacon, Shepard. You, of all people, should know what the Reapers are capable of. They cannot be stopped. Do not mire yourself in pointless revolt. Do not sacrifice everything for petty freedoms. The Protheans tried to fight, and they were destroyed. Trillions dead! But what if they had bowed before the invaders? Would the Protheans still exist? Is submission not preferable to extinction?"
Kaidan inhaled a deep breath. "Saren did always like his speeches," he said dryly.
