AmbassadorGood job, Shepard. Thanks to you, the Council's finally taking real action against Saren!E0 · string 93718 · transition 2585:-1

That's not enough.

Shepard says

You think a blockade's going to stop him? He's on Ilos looking for the Conduit right now! What are you doing about that?

Salarian CouncilorIlos is only accessible through the Mu Relay, deep inside the Terminus Systems, Commander. If we send a fleet in there, the only possible outcome is full-scale war.E3 · string 93721
AmbassadorNow is the time for discretion, Commander. Saren's greatest weapon was secrecy. Exposed, he is no longer a threat. This is over.E4 · string 1008024 choices
Asari CouncilorOnly you have seen the Reapers. And then only in visions. We won't invade the Terminus Systems because of a dream.E5 · string 1008033 choices

Send me after him.

Shepard says

One ship going into the Terminus Systems won't start a war. I can be discreet.

Asari CouncilorYour style served you well in the Traverse, Commander. We recognize that. But Ilos requires a deft touch. We have the situation under control.E8 · string 1008073 choices
AmbassadorThere are serious political implications here, Shepard. Humanity's made great gains thanks to you. But now you're becoming more trouble than you're worth.E10 · string 93723

This is a mistake!
