Vyrnnus noticed the gesture and moved towards the pair, where he praised Kaidan for the catch but began taunting Rahna with a glass of water biotically floated next to her. Rahna was close to dropping from exhaustion several hours of continued biotic exercise later, though Kaidan managed to save her piece from falling. Vyrnnus asked around if anyone knew what Shelby was doing the previous night, and when no one stepped forward, began establishing the rules of the biotic exercise involving the blocks at their feet.

Kaidan answered in the negative, as did the rest when the turian pressed them. Vyrnnus lectured the cadets on how they were allegedly wasting their education, rhetorically asked if they thought it was a joke, and faced Kaidan in particular for an answer. As Rahna was terrified of the turian, Kaidan made more attempts to comfort her before going.Īt the training room the students found a pile of building blocks on the floor and the transmitter's maker, Shelby, tied to a post. Kaidan comforted her by opining the transmitter doesn't really work, though at that moment Commander Vyrnnus, one of their teachers, started ordering the cadets to assemble at the training room ASAP. Rahna claimed her parents would just turn them in and that she didn't know where her brother was, making communication pointless. Kaidan sent a message to his parents with the makeshift transmitter, though he noticed that Rahna didn't and asked her why. The next day, Kaidan and Rahna were on the queue for water rations at meal break and discussing the events of the previous night. It had been at least half a year since both of them talked to their families as outside communication was prohibited, and Kaidan mused the reason for BAaT's distance from Earth was to prevent biotics like them from getting beat up by more normal folk. The two developed a close bond during their stay at "Brain Camp" so when one of their mutual friends arrived bearing news about a transmitter for sending messages to Earth both of them went to check it out, reminiscing all the while. A teenaged Kaidan Alenko was mulling over Jump Zero's isolation from the rest of the Sol system when his friend Rahna came up to him one day in 2168.
