AcquisitionEdit

A colonist from Zhu's Hope on Feros (either Shiala or a female colonist, if Shepard did not spare her during the events of Mass Effect) is sitting by the Tracking Office on Illium.

WalkthroughEdit

While walking past the Tracking Office, a colonist will stand up and approach you, recognising you from your mission on Feros two years previously. If you spared most of the colonists, the colony has recovered and grown but are now facing new troubles; if not (or if you did not import a Mass Effect character), then the colonists have returned to Earth. Either way, they have a problem requiring your attention. While signing a contract on Illium for treatment, the colonists have inadvertently given permission for Baria Frontiers to perform invasive, potentially harmful medical tests on them. She then asks you to negotiate with the Baria Frontiers representative to change the terms of the contract.

Talking to Erinya, the Baria Frontiers representative, reveals that she has a deeply rooted dislike of non-asari. Erinya blames the death of her bond partner and children on the actions of other species. If Shepard has enough Paragon or Renegade points, she can be persuaded to alter the contract, rewarding you with 40 experience.

If Shepard aids the colony, the Commander will receive the following message once on the Normandy:

E-Mail (Appreciate the help)

Conversely, if Shepard chose to kill all of the colonists on Zhu's Hope instead of using the nerve gas grenades, Lizbeth sends this alternative email:

Mission Summary Edit

The contract has been successfully negotiated, and the colonists of Feros will not be subjected to intrusive scans.

• Experience reward: 40 (50)

TriviaEdit

• Shiala's skin is green rather than the usual blue/purple tinge. When encountered in Mass Effect, the Thorian's clones of her were green, but she was blue. When asked about this, she admits that she doesn't know, but the most likely cause is that the Thorian's possession led to a change in her skin pigmentation, in addition to her unstable biotic powers and the visions she experiences from time to time.
• The female colonist resembles May O'Connell, but she will never tell her name to Shepard.
