This cutscene plays after the completion of the TUTORIAL mission.

Betrayal[edit]

Lord Santiago Espinosa: I remember the Aurigan Reach] of old - the time of the Great Expansion.

Lord Santiago Espinosa: I was just a boy then. Proudly we went forth, bringing the light of our Coalition to so many systems. And for what?

Lord Santiago Espinosa: To see our great kingdom slowly waste away?

Lord Santiago Espinosa: Year after year, the Council deliberates - while our economy falters, and the wolves bay at every door.

Lord Santiago Espinosa: While covetous neighbors plot against us! Well, I say it can go. No. Further.

Lord Santiago Espinosa: We are here today because if Lady Arano will not act, someone must.

Lord Santiago Espinosa: I know what I am asking of you. You will face former comrades, or even loved ones, on the battlefield.

Lord Santiago Espinosa: I take up arms against my own niece. But remember: today we sacrifice, so that tomorrow we can return our kingdom to its proper glory.

Lord Santiago Espinosa: To its proper strength!

Lord Santiago Espinosa: So should you fall tonight - know that you did so as true heroes of the Reach!

Lord Santiago Espinosa: To your stations!

Lord Santiago Espinosa: For The Directorate!
