Location: Sanctuary Time: 2186 CE Log: This is the personal log of Spectre Xenari Severus. It had been a few weeks since the war on Palaven began. The Reapers were closing in on us, and outnumbered us. Our cities were in rubble and there was nothing I could do but keep fighting. Our hopes continued to fade as more of our friends were turned into mindless marauders. I couldn't stand it.
But just before all hope was lost, rumor reached us that someone in the Alliance had managed to forge an alliance between us and the krogan. That was something that I had never thought possible.
Then, the Council had ordered me to leave Palaven in order to help somewhere else where the situation was more dire. I was reluctant to leave my home, but I couldn't really disagree with them now, could I? In just a few weeks, the Citadel had been attacked by Cerberus, and then the asari homeward of Thessia fell under attack by the Reapers...
As I was traveling to Thessia in my personal ship, my comm unit caught something on the airwaves.
Someone called "Miranda" was broadcasting over a wide broadcast channel to everyone in the system, something about how Sanctuary was a fake, and actually a Cerberus lab stronghold…
I knew about Sanctuary. I'd heard about it in the ads and recommended it to some turian refugees, but knowing that Cerberus was involved I immediately headed there to see what was happening.
When I reached it, all I saw were the signs of a bloody gunfight. The Cerberus soldiers were already dead, scattered all around Sanctuary. But where were the civilians? Where was everyone?
I went into the base and found more Cerberus soldiers - but there were also Reapers there. And most shocking of all, as I went deeper… I found a room that was filled with turian body parts in some kind of glass tubes. I saw a complete video log of what had happened down here. Cerberus were using civilians, both humans and turians alike, as test subjects. The humans were turned into either soldiers or husks, but the turians' fates were worse…. they were either mutilated or kept as test subjects like the ones in the glass tubes.
After watching the video, I found two human hiding in the room as well. They came out with their guns aimed at me, and told me to raise my hands up. I didn't comply. After seeing what happened here with my own eyes… it didn't matter anymore. I turned around to face them, but the moment I saw the Cerberus logos on their jackets… it was like everything went dark.
After a short while, it was all done. The humans really didn't put up a good fight, and I sent a spike towards the last one, piercing him right through his neck. His blood sprayed like a fountain to my face. It felt warm, and surprisingly… good.
After that, I left the room and the planet, trying to forget what I had seen with my own eyes. I knew I had taken part in the genocide going on there, because I had recommended that place to some of my turian friends, and the refugees...
But I swear… by the spirits of my ancestors. When I'm done, there will be no Cerberus left in this whole damn galaxy.
