Mass effect 10 Ben Second Chance

Chapter 20 Tuchanka epilogue part 3

Camp Urgnot.

Shepard, Wrex, Gluts, Samara and Morden return back to camp Urgnot. Wrex went off to set up the trial with Gluts also Wrex went to deliver a combusting manifold for his engineer. Morden went back to the Normandy to organize with STG. Samara went with him for support. Shepherd stayed to find Ben, Jack and Grunt. He starts look only to find Ben at the local kiosk looking over at some items.

"Ben" Ben turns around "Shepard back from the mission. How it go?" Shepard Grimaces and strokes his cheek.

"it was complicated but nothing that we could handle. Oh you need to report to Wrex to what I assume is Grunt right into Urgnot" Ben smirked "Heh. He need to do more than that. Grunt the official second person to kill a Thresher Maw" Shepard chuckles.

"Yeah Wrex going to love that. Anyway What you doing here? Where Jack and Grunt?"

"Well to answer your first question. Krogan has some decent armour upgrades like armour plating and such. Though it be a good Idea to harden some places on my armour that weak to close range fighting" Shepard nods. it makes sense medium armour good for support strikes and long ranges attacks not close quarters fighting which Ben good for.

"To answer your second question. Fighting pits and Varren arena. Not in that order" Shepard snorted at that.

"I'm surprised you did not go for Light armour back then on Illum" Ben nods back "That would make sense considering what I used to wear, but I am also dealing with weapons that can penetrate amour with the right skill set. I'm just being extra careful." Shepard nods back.

"where Morden and samara anyway?"

"Back at the Normandy. For emotional reasons. Anyway We have a Trial coming up. A Krogan clan leader has been experimenting on live female Krogans so all the clans are coming together here to see him punished for it" Shepard said that quickly to move the topic away from Morden.

"hmm. Yeah that tracks with what I heard here. From what I heard they pissed." Shepard nods agreeing but gets caught off guard by Ben next statement. "look, You know, I understand why you never told me about Morden being the creator of the Genophage but did you really think I would not notice after the reaction to my Krogan form. Even the fact Salarian councillor reaction about Morden back on the Citidel was a giveaway."

"Shit. Look Tennyson they a reason why I never told you"

"I am aware of the reason. You were thinking I have a go at him for Creating it and your right I would but I can also tell he conflicted about it. He not very good at controlling his emotions. It very easy to tell once you learn the Salarian body language. Don't worry I am not going to tell anyone"

Shepard breaths easy "Thank you Ben" Ben shrugged back and went to looking for armour upgrades. Shepard help in finding some decent plating that works best on humans. They stop for a moment to here Shepard name being shouted "Shepard!" They both Turn to see Wrex coming towards them.

"The Trial is getting ready to start and most of the clans have arrived. The ones that Haven't are busy dealing with they own problems" Shepard nods back.

"We need you to testify since the pyjack and the Asari went to 'cool' off" Shepard nods again "I can do that. Just tell me what to do and I say my peace on the matter"

Wrex smirking "Good and there not much just answer so When I call your name or you need to do is recalled what we did at Weyrloc base" Shepard nods. Wrex turns to Ben "Heard about the runt Killing a Thresher Maw. Has not been done since my turn on the rite. Next your telling he can produce dark matter." Ben snorted. Shepard chuckled.

"I also heard what happened to Uvenk. Good riddance. Anyway after the trial I introduce Grunt into the fold and don't worry Shepard I won't take grunt from you. He needs experience before he can join in active Krogan combat." Shepard snorted "Yeah because collectors are perfect target practice" Wrex laughed. Ben just smirked.
