Anthony Skordi: Leviathan - Leviathan DLC
Quotes
-
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : You have come too far.
Commander Shepard - Male : I had to find you.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : This is not your domain. You have breached the darkness.
Commander Shepard - Male : You killed a Reaper. I need to know why.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : They are the enemy. One that seeks our extermination.
Commander Shepard - Male : But, I thought you were a Reaper.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : They are only echoes. We existed long before.
Commander Shepard - Male : Then, what are you?
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : Something more.
-
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : There is no war. There is only the Harvest.
Commander Shepard - Male : Then, help us stop it.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : None have possessed the strength in past cycles. Your own species could be destroyed with a single thought. But you are different. I have witnessed your actions in this cycle: the destruction of Sovereign; the fall of the Collectors. The Reapers perceive you as a threat. And I must understand why. Before the cycles, our kind was the apex of life in the galaxy. The lesser species were in our thrall, serving our needs. We grew more powerful, and they were cared for. But we could not protect them from themselves. Over time, the species built machines that then destroyed them. Tribute does not flow from a dead race. To solve this problem, we created an intelligence with the mandate to preserve life at any cost. As the intelligence evolved, it studied the development of civilizations. Its understanding grew until it found a solution. In that instant, it betrayed us. It chose our kind as the first harvest. From our essence, the first Reaper was created. You call it Harbinger.
Commander Shepard - Male : Okay, you made your point. Will you help stop the cycle?
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : I have searched your mind. You are an anomaly - yet that is not enough.
Commander Shepard - Male : Wait!
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : The cycle will continue.
Commander Shepard - Male : No! You've been watching. You know this cycle is different.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : We will survive. You will remain here as a servant of our needs. The Reapers will harvest the rest.
Commander Shepard - Male : If you release me, no one has to be harvested!
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : Nothing will change.
Commander Shepard - Male : The Reapers know where you are! You can't just watch anymore - you have to fight! Even if you survive the battle today, the Reapers won't stop - ever. Release me, and we have a chance to end this once and for all.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : Your confidence is singular.
Commander Shepard - Male : I've earned it: out there fighting, where you should be.
Leviathan - Leviathan DLC : It is clear why the Reapers perceive you as a threat. Your victories are more than a product of chance. We will fight, but not for you, or any lesser race. We were the first, the apex race. We will survive. And the Reapers who trespass on this world will understand our power. They will become our slaves. Today, they pay their tribute in blood.
