[Screen flicks on and off a few times, as if the power switch is being tested. After the third time, it stays on, but no video feed is going through

Is that bad-- Oh. You must be new here! Well, this place is called Anatole... and we're all kind of stuck here. At least until the Gate thing decides to send us back home. So you're stuck here too, now.
Anatole? Is that the name of the colony? And that gate thing, is that like a Mass Relay? I thought there was only one Mass Relay that was one-way in the entire galaxy.

Hm, does my device have video too? Let's see...
[Static fills the screen and flickers in and out for a minute or two. It eventually clears up to show Garrus's face]
There we go. Tell me, have any Alliance or Cerberus ships been seen here?
Stone arch? Hm, I'll have to take a look at it later today. As for it suppossedly being magic, I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explaination for it.
[Blinks at her reaction. Maybe she's just uneasy around aliens or turians? Because he's met humans who are like that]
No ships, huh? Damn.
It's a pro-human terrorist organization. Though yes, I think I read once that they got the name from a mythological monster.
I doubt your Shepard will ever get your message. As far as I can tell, the forge transmissions don't reach much outside the city. Not that there is much outside the city.

Are you military? May I ask where you're from?

[Sounds dissapointed] Oh, I see. Well, if I know Shepard, she's probably scanning every planet in the galaxy to see if I turn up on one. Which means it might be a while if she ever comes.
I served when I was young, but then joined C-Sec. I travelled with an Alliance commander for a while after quitting, then became a viginante on Omega.
I take it you're not from my time either. [He obviously isn't used to thinking of this as being a different time than his. He's still not sure he believes it either]

[A soft gasp. Well, he's definitely not human.]
Um... there are... no spaceships here. There's some boats, though.
...isn't a cerberus a three-headed dog?
