    Summary

    Somewhere, under a pile of rubble, surrounded by the bodies of many who died in vain, a breath was taken.

    The war is over, and the galaxy is paying the hefty price of victory.

    Shepard wakes up, buried under a pile of rubble, with only snippets of memory of how she got there... and of a turian she had never seen before. Everybody treats her like a hero. She didn't even know her name ten minutes ago. Does she have the right to continue the relationships of the Shepard before? Does she have the right to take the credit for galactic peace? Does she have the right...to exist?

    And....worst of all...there's a whispering in her head.

    Summary

    Shepard is adrift in a sea of faces and circumstances that have left her feeling just as lost as her final desperate moments two years ago. So much has changed since then, and Kaidan, the one person she thought would be a constant, is disconcertingly absent. Garrus's presence is a balm to those chafing, swirling emotions. Yet he, too, has changed. Life's trials have eroded his rigid mask, revealing a man who can better see himself...and her. Can Shepard embrace what this new life has to offer, or will bygone promises keep her in the past?

    This is a read-as-you-play Garrus x FemShep romance that adds character and romance development to the cannon storyline and characters of ME2. Part 2 follows Shepard's POV from after Freedom's Progress (and speaking with Anderson on the Citadel) until after the ending of ME2. Each chapter can be read as a companion to each main mission and some select side missions. The Shepard described in this story is a female paragon with a spacer background who romances Kaidan in ME1; however, her class and psychological profile are not specified, and I don't describe her appearance or name so that you can imagine your Shepard in her place.
