Upon returning to Europa, Elsie began analyzing their samples along with data stolen from the [[Ishtar Collective]] regarding the Vex. She discovered that there was risk of contamination by Vex cytostructures that could introduce thoughts and even hallucinations into the minds of those infected. Furthermore, there was the risk of the Vex creating perfect copies of individuals to study and analyze for subsequent annihilation once the Vex learned all they could. This information led to Elsie arguing that utilizing the Vex for Exo research was too large a risk. She and Clovis I frequently fought about the concept of immortality through an artificial shell. Elsie worried that humanity would risk becoming like the Vex in such a state, losing all concept of morality and reality with the loss of death as a possibility, but her grandfather countered that Exobodies would provide the best defense against Vex infiltration of their minds.<ref name="MLVF"/> | Upon returning to Europa, Elsie began analyzing their samples along with data stolen from the [[Ishtar Collective]] regarding the Vex.

She also noted that she was unsure if she would become an Exo even if he proved it to be safe, as she disliked his dream of becoming the Last Universal Common Ancestor of humanity. Elsie also demanded that he cease attempting to make her grandmother [[Lusia Lin|Lusia]]'s rhubarb compote recipe during their dinners, noting his desire to have her say it was just like his ex-wife's was pathetic and that she would continue to eat with the crew instead.<ref>'''Bungie''' - ''[[Mysterious_Logbook#MESSAGE_FROM_BRAY,_ELISABETH_2|Mysterious Logbook - MESSAGE FROM BRAY, ELISABETH 2]]''</ref> | |||
