I do not think Tali is willing to pull out someone's guts and show them to someone like Shepard is.  Shepard would probably defeat Daro in their epic, manly muscle-flexing knife fight.  Then he'd cut open her stomach, yank that gut snake out and let her get a good look at it.  Because like Zaeed said, if you're stubborn enough, you'll survive anything.  Daro just made the mistake of giving Shepard a new goal.

  

You do know that  killing Daro' Xen if you really want revenge is going to net you anything... no no no  if you want real revenge, satisfying revenge. You have to take something important away from her. See Daro'Xen at least in the Reckoning verse  hates to feel  walked upon, looked down at. She has a lot of  pride.  Break her pride , you break the women.... then you can let her rot  

or you can just leave her to Geth she enslavd once you free them I doubt they would be very happy... nope not to happy at all 

This post makes me a sad Riptide...

 

Oh don't get me wrong I like Daro' Xen I do...  I was  stating that  IF  one had to seek revenge   how one should do it... 

Would you like if a did my theory on  T.I.M he is a rather interesting case?   


Plus I have only had a chance to read about 4 Chaps of Reckoning so far and how you right Daro' Xen she comes off as some who takes a lot of  pride in  who she is and hates to  be made to weak,vulnerable, and used.

According to myShep, if he knew Daro's past, Daro did not rise above adversity.  She drowned in it.  She gets no mercy for failing to play the cards she was dealt.

Reckoning isn't finished.

Do not pretend to make judgements.

Somewhere, a Lividity Jones and a Riptide is crying.

I'm actually laughing that he thinks Shepard could possibly break Xen after everything she has endured, at least within Reckoning.

 

every person can break, just got have to know the right button to push.

That's ****ing COLD.

myShep is a cold MF.  Having a negative past is no excuse to him.  She ends up threatening the galaxy, she gets a bullet in the face.  That's just how he rolls.

Definately.

Now... making her realize she's become a monster and her willingly commiting suicide ala Saren... I could get behind.

But only if done on Xen's terms.

Daro'Xen: I will not die a monster.

*Suicide*

On topic-  I truely that the small majority of Quarians who "Don't come back" from pilgrimage are sold into the galactic sex trade...  or maybe they wanted a new life.  Eh,  who knows.

Thought?

P.S.-  Rekoning was good, definitely gonna follow it. (Even though it's no good to my mental health, metal plate in head not withstanding)

I'm, just going to keep assuming it's that and not get any more upset than I already am.

The sex trade exists in our world, in every major city in every single country. It's been stated to exist multiple times in the Mass Effect universe. It happens.

And I'm sure it's happened to more than one quarian...

Yeah...  don't even really want to go into that one... bit of a sore subject for me.


on topic- I never believed there was a large percentage of Quarians who don't return,  and I firmly believ that said bleak scenario probably doesn't happen to majority of them. But like Rip said, it happens in our world (Really ****d up if you ask me, then again who would think otherwise... Wait the people that do it for a ****d up living) Seriously anyone connected to **** like that should have their private chopped off and shoved down their throat!  Eye for an eye justice like that would be great in this particular case.

Yeah.

I think you're expecting things to go the opposite of what we're planning.

Or I could be wrong.

Elaborate. Now i'm curious.

I do so hate being beaten to the punch...

1) AnimusFerrus posted a story which included Zaeed going after some slavers, for one reason or another.  Went into detail on how the operation was set up.  Checking again, it looks to have been pulled down.  I'm going to have to send him a message and ask why....

2) The other was... heh... my A Creed Unhinged:

Had Harlan been able to see Liara's face, he would have seen her jaw drop. Living within the Terminus Systems, who hadn't heard of One-Shot? She tried to remember what her contacts had said of the man. He was a major slaver, but ranking by quantity, he hadn't even cracked the top ten. No, she remembered, One-Shot was a specialist. That approach had made him one of the richest men in the Terminus Systems, although no-one knew what he looked like. The fact that he was a quarian caused Liara to shutter. One-Shot had aimed his nickname by being the premier source for female quarian slaves for "recreational purposes" as he advertised. After those female quarians had been... used... they generally died. Someone had joked that you only got "One-Shot" with them, and the name had stuck.

I think it's more believeable that many of them simply left the Migrant Fleet, I highly doubt that every quarian appreciates what is waiting for them. Maybe some got lazy with their trek, maybe some just liked wandering on there own better. Tali's line about condemning the Pilgrimage made it more believable, but one opinion will hardly do justice for an entire populace.

There are mentions of quarians making for cheaper labor, which makes me think of significant expatriate communities now that I think about it. Like Chinatown in San Francisco during the building of the Transcontinental Railroad.

I mean, Illium might restrict a fleet of 50,000 ships entering their space, but what are they to say about 500 quarians looking for a permanent residence?

One-Shot clearly wasn't very good at his job.

Ah... I would write poetry describing the things Daro would do to him...

He sells the... girls, he doesn't rent them out.  If they die quickly, it creates an insatiable demand.  Good for business. 

Need to finish that story.  One-Shot needs a kick in teeth.

I never read it.

I don't trust Tali's existence in a fic that lends such description towards a character like One-Shot.
