    Summary

    For all intents and purposes, Nihlus Kryik died on Eden Prime... shot cowardly in the back of the head, and left in a pool of his own blood. But as Shepard stood from her seat beside the MedBay cot, she gently squeezed the turian's talons as she always did, and finally received a weaker one in return. Smiling in relief, she left her partner to his rest; the curve of her lips turning into a full grin, when she found Garrus and Wrex waiting for her in the Mess Hall. The krogan tossed her a MRE bar without a word, before the turian held out a bottle of water. Unable to help it, Shepard laughed, easily understanding their silent jibes. But before she could say anything, Joker called over the comm: “Hey, Shep? ETA five minutes... and it looks like they've rolled out the welcome wagon.”

    Author's note:
    I'm working to bring my three main Mass Effect Trilogy stories into one major piece. This part focuses on ME1, which includes my previous works "Til the Last Shot's Fired" and "Legacy of Heroes".
