"Sovereign's manipulating you and you don't even know it! You're already under its control!" Shepard called, because he had been, if nothing else, always dedicated to the art of trying to talk his opponents out of things.
"But Sovereign needs me. If I find the Conduit, I've been promised a reprieve from the inevitable. This is my only hope." Oh, Saren. Kaidan wondered if the turian had realized at the time just how futile his efforts were.
He watched as Shepard attempted to convince Saren to step down and join him, but failed. He rubbed the back of his neck.
