Scientific Log of Doctor Mordin Solus

Entry 16,046 - Normandy time 1942 hours 15 August 2185

Major Kirrahe: Entering Omega-4 relay shortly. May not return. Do not want Collector research lost. Forwarding pertinent information to you.

Upon possible return, aspire to investigate krogan genophage cure. Found first steps for research from old assistant.

Want to be proud of life's work. Too short to regret what I've created.

Thank you.

Hey Miranda,

With everything going on with this Collector stuff, I've been thinking about us a lot

Mir,

Do you remember that time when we went on a date to that nice little cafe on the Presidium? StarCredits I think it was called? Sometimes I reflect on our fun times together and miss

Miranda,

Funny thing happened the other day, EDI mentioned that you're using a galactic dating service? You know, there's a single man in the armoury waiting

Hey you.

I don't know if we're going to make it through this. If one of us doesn't, my greatest regret is that I never appreciated what we had when we did have it. You still mean so much to me, and if we do both make it through this, it would mean the galaxy to me if we could try and give it another shot. I know that I've changed, and I know that you've changed too. But that... DAMMIT. I CAN'T DO THIS.

Son.

Hope lies in this message reaching you. My body is at risk today. If my body and spirit are divided, remember that my spirit is always with you.

I'm so proud of you. I haven't been the best father to you, and I just hope you can find it in yourself to forgive me.

Never follow my path. The most difficult part of the sleep is waking up.

If I do not return, please find Kasumi Goto and give her the attached message.

I love you, son.

Hey Sol.

Things are getting crazy over here, so I hoped that we would never have to worry about this, but I wanted to send this to you just in case.

I haven't been the best big brother. Or son, to mom or dad. Dad can be a real ass, but he's still our dad in the end. I worry about mom every day. I worry about you, too.

You've always been a great sister. So it's time for the truth to come out. I'm the one who broke dad's armour piercing pistol mod back when he grounded you for two weeks so you couldn't go to camp.

To make up for it, I'm leaving you my Mattock. It's on the Citadel, C-Sec storage unit B246, passcode is Shepard.

Send my love to mom.

Mum.

Thanks for the socks. They're very comfortable.

The fox brings back good memories of you teaching me to hunt when I was a boy. I wear it into battle for good luck.

I don't say it much, but I love you, mum. I love you a lot.

Kal,

We're doing it. We're on our way into the Omega-4 relay. I have your gift with me, I take it everywhere I go. It feels like I'm taking you everywhere I go.

Part of me is scared, but I know that Commander Shepard will guide us like she always does. This is for the good of everyone. I feel like I'm doing something right in the galaxy.

If I make it back, I want to help take back Rannoch. For my father. For us.

I love you, Kal. Never forget that.

Keelah Se'Lai.

Your Tali.

"EDI?"

"Yes, Jeff?"

"Are we going to make it?"

"Your odds of survival are significantly higher than those of the ground crew, Jeff."

"I know that. But I mean, the Commander, can she do this?"

"Her odds of-"

"I don't want the odds. Give me your personal opinion."

"She can, Jeff. It will not be easy, but I know she can."

"Thanks. That's all I needed to hear."

A/N: This intermission was a lot of fun to write. It started when I was thinking to myself: who was the last person the team would have wanted to message before they hit the Collector base? And here we are!

So we're closing in on the home stretch! Thank you to everyone who has been participating in this adventure with me so far, and trust me when I say that I'm extremely excited for part 2.

Have a great weekend, I'll be back with the Collector base chapter on Monday!
