Summary
When Shepard wakes after the Crucible's blast, she’s a shadow of the Commander who saved the galaxy. Her body is broken. Her past is blurred. The people who love her most are strangers to her heart.
But Garrus and Kaidan have never been the type to give up, and neither have the Normandy crew that once followed her through hell and back. As the galaxy rebuilds, so too does something softer: trust, belonging, and the quiet possibility of love reborn.
“Lazarus ReRising” is about more than Shepard’s survival; it’s about what she chooses to do with the life she never expected to have.
