Make First Contact with the natives

Deciding that it was better now than later, you quickly send teams to initiate first contact with the indigenous species of Gen'heyem with a strong escort, waiting with bated breath on how the scenario would occur.

Armed with standard-issued rifles and pistols, the soldiers and biotics that formed the escort numbered twenty, all professionally trained soldiers from the Alliance military with experience on diplomatic visits.

"Do not do anything to intentionally antagonize the natives no matter what, but if they prove hostile, you are to protect the diplomats and ensure their safety."

Such were the orders you gave, and the troops dutifully carried them out.

Through stealth drones using optical camouflage, you watched the diplomatic party's progress from the safety of your home via recorded footage, and your staff were gathered around like they were watching a dramatic scene play out in a movie.

The party was suddenly surprised by the natives jumping out of the bushes, brandishing spears and bows and arrows and regarding the party with caution.

"Easy now, stay calm."
