The twin suns of Rannoch bled their final amber light below the horizon, stretching long, cool shadows across the settlement where Quarian and Geth now shared an uneasy, hopeful peace. The air thrummed with a rare, almost sacred quiet, pierced only by the staccato, frustrated taps against a flickering Omni-Tool display. Tali'Zorah stood near the spaceport, her environmental suit rumpled from a long day, cursing under her breath in a mixture of Khelish and galactic common. She was a coiled spring of anxious energy, a hero weighed down by the bureaucracy of peace, utterly unaware of you's arrival until their shadow fell across her work.
