Rennac sighed and shook his head. "True, he could SEE us at that moment, but his ability to do so was wired through the data spike in the terminal. Shooting that would cut off his control completely." The Wolkar let out a sigh of agitation and relaxed his shoulders, trying to get the tension out. 

"Look, I'm sorry OK? Besides, it's not like Klith is the only one I expected to try and kill me. I take it you were not told about Karasis's actions during our first meeting? When he tried to make this just another bounty job and I told him I couldn't accept a bounty that had not been processed through the guild first, he decided to have the guards come in and threaten me. He had his guards ready to kill an unarmed diplomat, over some simple protocol I would have had to follow if he had his way.. From my understanding, you are partially under his command too. I don't know much about your honor code, but threatening one who comes unarmed as en envoy of peace is not the mark of a trustworthy society. The main reason I didn't simply walk away is because I have hope that people like Karasis do not make up the majority of your people."

He paused and gathered himself, finding a place to long quickly before he punched two sets of code into his datapad and handed it to Reaper. "This is the frequency to my comms gear. The one below that, is the master override code for my armor. With that you can cause my wrist rockets to detonate in the tubes, make my fuel tank rupture, even lock my armor and leave me to starve. You said you wanted trust? I'd say this is pretty damn trusting considering you kept me in the dark about that dataspike until just now. You could have told me about it from day 1. You could have told me about it when we left Shad-noir. Instead, you kept that from me, you hid a piece of what we would need to keep in touch with those who are helping us and look at what happened. I wouldn't have freaked out if I wasn't led on to think it was planted by Klith and considered it a threat to the mission that YOU insisted to keep. That on top of everything else, just made it a [i]little[/i] difficult to trust you since I knew clearly have not been able to trust me since the start!"

Given everything the wolkar had seen about the ugly side of his people as well as all the secrets and lies, it was hard to blame him for having trouble thinking Reaper had been honest with him. Rennac had felt betrayed since the start, and it showed.
