Shepard, I know this likely isn't something you wanted to hear, or that anyone would want to hear. But I'm leaving you this message to explain why I've done what I have. I was assigned a mission from Gilese and Mothership, to choose someone to die as an exercise in the actions of the chain of command. As such, I believe the only choice I can make is to choose myself.

I'm sorry that this was how that this mission is ending. Try to find as much information as you can from the CDC to defeat the reapers. I don't need to tell you the importance of finding an edge against them.

I have never told you about how glad I was that day you saved me on Therum, and how you're one of my best friends, Shepard. I've seen a lot of the galaxy, and accomplished so much, and I have you to thank for helping me. I wouldn't be the person I am today without you. For that I want to say Thank you, again, Shepard, and may the goddess always watch over you and guide you when all seems lost.
