You did what you had to do
I listened to the bustle of Cerberus operatives in the base's command center. Tali waited nearby, leaving me to my thoughts. I left the command center and she fell in behind me without a word.
I retraced our steps through the base. I stopped at each of the markers someone from Cerberus left, mouthing the names on the placards. Jack. Thane Krios. Garrus Vakarian. Miranda must have told them where to put the memorials.
Eventually we reached the platform where we faced the Reaper embryo. I leaned over the edge, reliving the moment when Samara's hand slipped from my own. Looking down, I expected to see her body, crumpled but all I saw was nothing.
"Tali, did I do the right thing, keeping this place?"
The quarian did her version of a shrug. "You did what you had to. We need every advantage we can find, even if it's working with Cerberus."
