[ When the feed clicks on, it reveals a man who seems to be recovering from assorted injuries, if the faint bruises and scattered bandages are any sign. His expression is serious, grim as he stares into the feed. He clears his throat before he speaks, tone professional and curt. ]This is Major Kaidan Alenko, Systems Alliance. If there are any other

Major Alenko. There is a Commander Shepard connected to your Alliance here, if he has not yet contacted you.

[standsfast]

I've gotten in contact with Shepard, yeah. Appreciate the heads up, though.

[cigarboss]

You were here before, I believe. Though I'm assuming you do not remember it?

[standsfast]

So I've been told. But no, I don't remember ever being here before. Is that a common occurrence with this place?

[cigarboss]

People seem to come and go as the System pleases. Even death isn't permanent. A little memory loss is hardly surprising.

[standsfast]

Yeah, guess if you've got the power to drag people across galaxies in the blink of an eye, amnesia wouldn't be much trouble. Gotta wonder why they'd bother, though... Seems like it'd be more beneficial to them to keep returnees from being confused.

[cigarboss]

Perhaps there's something they don't want you to remember.

[standsfast]

Hm. That's a possibility. Either way, it's a little unnerving, I have to admit. has the opposite ever happened before, do you know? People leaving and coming back, but remembering what they did here before?

[cigarboss]

[There's a moment of silence as she considers the question.] There may have been one man like that, but I never spoke to him. It's a rare occurrence, at any rate.
