->'''Crayak:''' Their orbit is badly destabilized. You can see that they will slip slowly, then faster, wobbling, tom by shattering earthquakes, slide down and down the gravity well, atmosphere boiling away, suffocating, a few surviving in trapped pockets of air - until of course they are roasted alive by their own sun.
->'''The Ellimist:''' Some of them can still be saved!
->'''Crayak:''' Yes. And you can stay here and save them, Ellimist. Or you can follow me to the next game. Save a few of these creatures, or perhaps save entire worlds. Your choice. [[AbsurdlyHighStakesGame It's all a part of the game]].

->When we were back on Earth, you picked up certain germs on your person, common bacteria from the air. These germs would normally perish during your voyages from one planet to the next, but this time I teleported you directly to Salaria. Microscopic life, harmless to you and all Earth creatures... but quite deadly to the inhabitants of Salaria. The plague should be well established within the Salarian community by now. During our teleportation sessions, I took the liberty of manipulating our position in the time flow. [[ThePurge I calculate that nearly 50% of Salaria's population has perished by now]]. But if you hurry, you can still save the other half. Or you can waste time pitting your powers against mine.

->''"Before you, I place a choice. Walk through the blue door, and continue to face even more failures at saving those closest to you. Your race will live on borrowed time and will, through your violent arrogance, wind up extinct. Walk through the red door, however, and I will release the humans whom I have collected. I will give them amnesty, and even a ship from my fleet to do with as they see fit. However, in choosing this door, you will willingly [[HeroicSacrifice submit yourself to execution]]. This is the moment where you can choose to be the savior of humanity, or its absolute destroyer."''
