Review the facts

With the orders given, you retreat to your cabin to think. It was your choice to spare the collector base, but you did it for the right reasons. Sitting behind your terminal, you scroll through old reports on Cerberus. Long before they recruited you, your interactions were less than pleasant. Miranda said something about experiments, that brought back rather grim memories.

The Illusive man claimed that all of their studies were for the greater good, but you saw what they were doing in those laboratories. Helpless victims warped into Thorian Creepers, Rachni warriors being bred by the dozens, not to mention what was done to Jack. Could they be doing something similar with the Collector base? Another dark memory, captive humans trapped in pods, being melted down into little more than sustenance for a Reaper hybrid.

"No. They can't be allowed to do this." You may be talking to yourself, but you know you're right. Cerberus could be a **** for humanity, if not for the short-sighted greed of the Illusive man. This had to stop. Perhaps then the nightmares would cease.

A sudden chime snapped you hastily back to reality, someone was at your cabin door. While you hadn't counted on the interruption, you suppose it's not that much of a surprise, since you're about to jump head first into the most notoriously deadly relay in the known universe, for the second time.

"You're free to enter."

With permission granted, the door slowly slides open, and you rise from your seat to greet the unannounced visitor.
