Summary
They call it the Great Filter. Civilizations rise, they discover the miracle of Element Zero, and they unknowingly accelerate the decay of their own suns. The Reapers aren't just destroyers; they are the firebreak, arriving to harvest advanced life before it burns the universe down to the last star.
For Shepard, the invasion manifests as more than just a war—it is a physical agony. The sky over Earth has turned violet, gravity is unspooling, and his Vanguard abilities are no longer a weapon, but a liability. In an atmosphere thick with dark energy, every Biotic Charge risks tearing a hole in reality and burning him out from the inside.
Shepard can’t charge his way out of the heat death of the universe.Reunited with Kaidan Alenko, Shepard finds that their biotic resonance is the only thing capable of quieting the static screaming in his blood. Together, they must convince a fractured galaxy that the Reapers are merely a symptom of a much larger disease—and find a way to fix the sky before the lights go out forever.
The Dark Energy Ending rewrite.
Vanguard!Shepard, Sentinel!Kaidan, Biotic Resonance, Dark Energy Lore, Entropy, and mShenko romance as the center of gravity.
