Summary
Ten years ago, the Reapers were vanquished, the galaxy saved. Statues were raised. Obituaries written. Shepard, having died in the last moments of the war, became a hero, a legend, enshrined in memory.
Only Shepard wasn’t dead. He was hidden. Locked away for all that time.
And now, Shepard has returned, having been freed from his frozen prison.
His pursuit for answers will lead him across a changed galaxy. He knows this wasn’t an accident. Someone had a reason to put him under for those ten years, and they had the power to make the galaxy believe he was never coming back. He will stop at nothing to find the truth and take down those that wronged him and destroy the lies they’ve built. Only then will his vengeance be complete. The galaxy will soon learn how dangerous a dead man can be.
And when the last name is crossed off, he will look to the stars again. Toward the one face that’s haunted his every waking thought and pulled him forward all this time.
A voice. A memory. His lost love.
Tali'Zorah.

Summary
OK so as I played through the Mass effect series I got this idea that hey what if I combined some of the races DNA with Human DNA and I got the hybrids (They do not look like movie monster hybrids). I do not own anything to Mass effect save for my OCS. Canon Divergence Reaper AU. What if a single woman changed the course of fate and Saren never discovered Sovereign?

Mass Effect + Cricket.
That's it, that's the story.

Summary
It was an easy mission in theory. An acquisition run to the human colony on Mindoir and, with a little luck, the opening of overtures between the Migrant Fleet and the new race flooding into the galaxy from some little yellow-star system uncountable light years from the Tinnuk and Rannoch and all the lost homes of the quarian people.
A trade for granger-units to grow food on the liveships. Maybe a few little items. Maybe even a fresh start with a species that's never known the geth and might have goodwill to spare the beleaguered nomads of the Migrant Fleet.
The doors of the starship Gorach open and the quarians are confronted with death and horror.
And one scared little girl who will one day shape the fate of the galaxy as Jane'Nur vas Normandy nar Shepard.
