The salarian dalatrass is on the line. Whoops. She asks if Shepard really believes that a fertile krogan will create a lasting peace. Well, yes? Wrex is a good guy who's trying to fix things, and there's more important things going on right now, and as Shepard points out, you can't condemn an entire race to extinction because of what-ifs.

The dalatrass proposes a compromise. The Shroud was sabotaged to prevent what we're trying to do from happening. Mordin will, of course, fix that when he notices. But if we don't fix the sabotage, the krogan won't even know, right? RIGHT? And then the dalatrass will give us all the salarian fleet (hahaha) and their scientists to help build the Crucible (oh).

Fuuuuck.
