LOG ENTRY 5.0.0

EDI sent up the file for Korlus to my quarters. I will admit that I skimmed through it, I found that EDI had attached a photo of Liara from my personal belongings we collected from the Citadel's Alliance Archives to my cabin's photo frame. I sat just staring at her face, 2 years before... two years is probably nothing for an Asari; they live for hundreds of years... two years is probably just like a day for them.

Pulling myself away from the photo, I glanced at the file for Korlus and the Krogran warlord Dr Okeer. Korlus seems to be a graveyard for ships throughout the galaxy, and some Mercs have aparently set up shop in one of the small area's on the surface. I selected my team once more; Miranda and Garrus, and told them to gear up. We are taking the shuttle down to the surface once we reach the lower atmosphere.

Supplimental 5.0.1

We just landed on Korlus; it defines the term "dump", mothballed ships as far as the eye could see, torn apart or stripped of materials needed for other vessels or sold off second hand.

The entire place was a battlefield; we landed fter taking a little bit of fire but moved through the front area. Several Blue Suns held a fortified position; we quickly over ran it and found a "dying" soldier. He was screaming in pain from minor flesh wounds, we didnt tell him that though and used it as a way to get information; from what he told us, Krogan were running loose on the facility... great... Krogran...

Supplimental 5.0.2

We fought our way to the labs, these krogans seem to be different, we even found one that was just holding an area; we managed to talk to him, he told us he was Tank born... these Krogans must be genetically bred failures... probably handed out to the Blue Suns for cannon fodder by Okeer.

Supplimentl 5.0.3

You would never guess who I ran into... Rana Thanoptis... the secretary to Saren from Virmire. She told me the moment she saw me she shut down security and got herself ready to run; the last time she saw us she had to outrun a nuke. Hopefully she wont get in the way in the future.

Supplimental 5.1.0

Found Dr Okeer, he was breeding a Tank Bred Krogan... the Perfect Krogan. He did indeed give the failed ones to the mercs as cannon fodder as I guessed; turns out he is trying to cure the genophage. As I tell him about hiring him against the collectors, the power goes off. He told me I need to go kill Jedor, the merc leader here and restore power.. .then he will come with us.

Supplimental 5.1.1

We headed down and fought off Jador, a YMIR mech and all the rest of the failed Krogan still left in their tanks. EDI alerted us that gas had been released into the Chamber Okeer was in. We rushed up but Okeer was dead; a video explained that he wanted me to take care of his perfect Krogan, So I brought it up onto the ship.

Supplimental 5.2.0

Miranda isnt pleased about me bringing the krogan up, she told me not to open it; although I went ahead and did it anyway. The Krogan inside charged straight out the chamber and pinned me to the wall; I am pretty sure I left an indent in the wall.

It called itself Grunt, picking its name from a list of words it had learned from "the chamber" I offered it a chance to join us... but also kept a gun aimed at its gut; luckily it took the friendship and chance of battle. You can never be to careful; especially with Krogan.

Supplimental 5.2.1

Took a walk through the ship, Kelly contacted me just as I was about to go to my quarters; The Illusive Man wanted to see me. I headed into the converence room and activated the video software.

THe Illusive man told me the Collectors were attacking Horizon in the Terminus system, and the only Alliance help is Ashley Williams on the planet; Ash was part of my old crew. I cant wait to see her again.

I ordered Joker to plot a course for Horizon, Maybe we can stop them before they get away with anymore humans. I head down to talk with Morden to see if he has anything to help us against the seeker swarms; which luckily he had come up with a breakthrough while we were on Korlus.

Next stop... Horizon
