"[From the EC 'Control' Ending] Eternal. Infinite. Immortal. The man/woman I was used these words, but only now do I truly understand them. [If Paragon] And only now do I understand the full extent of his/her sacrifice./ [If Renegade] And only now do I comprehend the full potential of his/her decision. Through his/her death, I was created. Through my birth, his/her thoughts were freed. They guide me now; give me reason, direction. Just as he/she gave direction to the ones who followed him/her, the ones who helped him/her achieve his/her purpose; now my purpose. To give the many hope for a future; to ensure that all have a voice in their future. / To right the wrongs of the past; to provide a voice to those too weak to speak for themselves. [Or alternatively] To provide the many with a powerful leader; to put an end to the bickering of the many; to ensure the strongest are not feared or reviled for their strength. The man/woman I was knew that he/she could only achieve this by becoming something greater. There is power in control. There is wisdom in harnessing the strengths of your enemy. I will rebuild what the many have lost; I will create a future with limitless possibilities; I will protect, and sustain; I will act as guardian for the many. / I will restore what the many have fought for; I will lead an army that none will dare oppose; I will protect, defend; I will destroy those who threaten the future of the many. And throughout it all, I will never forget; I will remember the ones who sacrificed themselves so that the many could survive. And I will watch over the ones who live on / And I will keep a watchful eye over the ones who live on; those who carry the memory of the man/woman I once was, the man/woman who gave up his/her life / who fought to become the one who could save/lead the many."
