Well.

I went out today to see if I could help with the fact that there's no sun, and I saw this man making lightning and cutting himself, and he was terrorizing the entrance to the underground, so I told him to cut it out. He cut himself and tried to hit me with lightning, but I blocked it, and after I managed to get him somewhere safe where he couldn't hurt anyone else, I noticed that my shield feels right again!

So I guess it just had to be hit by lightning. But the fact that it feels normal makes me a whole lot calmer about this whole thing.

But really, try to use these powers for good, okay? Especially if you have to something terrible to make them work.

Getting there was a milestone for humanity. They found artifacts that let them catch up with the rest of the galaxy, technology-wise.

I've never been to Mars myself, but I hear it's nice.

I bet. I hear they got to the moon, but that's after my time too. We're still pretty stuck on Earth when I'm from.

A lot of humans here are, from what I understand. It took me a while to get used to seeing people actually be surprised by talking to one of my kind.

You're not human?

No. I'm a turian. An alien.

I guess it's not too hard to assume that I've never met one, is it?

If you haven't reached Mars yet in your world, I seriously doubt it. Plus, you'd know if you had, trust me.
