"Might have a chance to use it. Maybe if you're in close combat, or the asari military get scared and jump here. Or just a lone bandit. Who knows?" The turian replied, chuckling.
"There was a short time before I became a weapon salesman. Got drafted into the turian military. Was in a few fights with the Asari on foot. A lot more brutal than you expected." He replied, his smile disappearing.

"Don't Asari have the biotic Abilities? I'd imagine hand to hand is damn near impossible."
-
"Yeah...and we barely had anybody until the Krogan showed up. One of my last fights, on the planet of Shieco, a small desert planet; the Asari 4th and 6th fleets were striking us with everything they got. Thousands of us turians and salarians were holding the line, barely surviving some of these biotic attacks, and guess who comes charging straight into the Asari, biotic charges, shotguns and war hammers tearing the Asari ranks to shreds?"
-
"Krogan... By why were the Asari attacking like this?"
-
"Simple. We lose that planet, they could've had a backdoor to the Citadel. Lose the Citadel, and we lose the war to a warmongering asari like Tevos. We had to engage them there and lock the sector down." Cryark replied, a tone of seriousness in his voice coming.
-
"But still. Aren't all races supposed to be friendly or something?"
-
"Well, that was originally the case. Hell, Tevos left the Council so she could unite the Republics under one army. Had a short war with the Terminus Systems to gain back Illium from Aria T'Loak and her goons, and brought almost all the Republics together. Peaceful. For some reason, one day, we looked away from the Republics and next thing you know, their militaries try to jump to Palaven, armed to the teeth, burning colonies everywhere. Few Asari Republics jumped off at first...then she assassinated all those who opposed her in the Republics. I don't know." Cryark replied, the tone replaced with a bit of sadness.
-
"Huh..." [b]Watcher looked down at the ground, shaking his head slightly [/b]
-
"Lost a lot of good people...still can't believe the war is still going on, though. And the Terminus Systems had gained interest in not only the Republics, but around here as well. Least what I got from my contacts." Cryark replied.
-
"But there's nothing here of interest! Not to am Asari I would think."
-
"Think about it. Kill some of the most advanced and highly skilled warriors in the galaxy, dissect them, understand their combat techniques, mimic their weapons...you'd be surprised what some scientists could be able to do. Take that, plus being one of the most advanced races in the galaxy...and you just spelled out doomsday for everyone who hasn't joined Tevos's side. Well, minus Aria." The turian thought out loud.
-
"So just join the side. What's so wrong about Tevos anyway?"
-
"Gassed the volus after the Illium campaign. Promoted slavery across all of the Republics that she'd control. And...then there was Marek Prime..." Cryark said, giving a long sigh before continuing, "That guy, Merrick, let you on his ship? That was his homeworld. About a month ago? Obliterated when the Terminus fleet, Blue Suns, and Adair fleets all fought above the planet. Killed almost all of the 4 billion people on the planet. Only 500,000 survived. That Alliance chick's daughter? Adopted from the battle. The Turians and Batarians had been more than willing to rebuild the colony world." He said.
-
"Shit...." [b]The was all Watcher could say as the two finally stopped in front of the dojo gates [/b] "That must be..."
-
"Yeah. Never mention it to him. Could end up murdering you, at worst. He...keeps his personal information away from everyone else but Silsia. If you want anymore information about the asari or anything about Marek Prime, talk to her when Merrick isn't around." Cryark replied, looking up on the gates. "So...how do we get in?" He asks.
-
[spoiler]BTW, will the geth be receiving a bio? There isn't one yet [/spoiler] "Knock on the gates."
-
[spoiler]Yeah. Still thinking about the type of gear he might have, but he'll get one by tomorrow.[/spoiler] He knocked on the gate, walking a little ways back to let the gates open.
-
[b]The gates creaked open and allowed the two entrance [/b] "Welcome to the Dojo..." [b]Was all Watcher said as be pulled the sack through the gates [/b]
-
"Well...not expecting this type of luxury." Cryark replied, luging the sack toward wherever Watcher was heading.
-
[b]He stopped in front of the cherry tree, and took a seat underneath it with his back against the trunk [/b] "You'll need to choose one of the many buildings for a place of business. I can't really help you with that."
-
He looked at the buildings, studying each one intently. [spoiler]Don't know what's available here.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]I dunno either, I'd recommend checking out the actual dojo buildings and courtyards to see where you should put it [/spoiler]
