    Summary

    Commander Alison Jane (AJ) Shepard has lived through more than most: the batarian raid on Mindoir, the slaughter on Akuze, and the ruthless campaign at Torfan. Now, as the galaxy teeters on the edge of annihilation, she faces not only the Reapers but the weight of her past and the choices that threaten to unmake her. This story is a novelization of Mass Effect, following Shepard’s journey through familiar missions, dialogue, and relationships as seen in the game.

    As the weight of her decisions threatens to crush her, Shepard is forced to confront the pieces of herself she thought she’d buried. When she finds a shy, innocent, asari maiden trapped in a stasis bubble surrounded by prothean ruins, she finds herself opening up to someone. Balancing the tension of galactic war with fleeting moments of tenderness, Shepard must navigate the fine line between duty and desire, her past and her future. Along the way, old wounds resurface, friendships deepen, and love grows in the unlikeliest of places. But even in the darkest moments, there’s room for humor, hope, and the stubborn defiance that makes Shepard who she is. It is a story of survival, healing, and the relationships that keep us fighting—against all odds.

    Summary

    A routine mission. A distress call. A Council still blind to the coming storm.
    What begins as cleanup duty on the fringes of known space quickly turns into devastation as an unknown enemy tears the Normandy apart—and Shepard makes an impossible choice to save her crew.

    But even in the face of annihilation, one promise remains:
    “I’ll come for you. I always will.”

    Summary

    This Christmas story is set in 2202, 14 years after the war and well after Shepard's semi-retirement from the Spectres... after all, no one truly retires from being a Spectre. It does contain a couple of spoilers, and deviates somewhat from my standard canon, so read at your own risk. A modified version of this will eventually be rolled into the main storyline. Merry Christmas!
