Summary
"Fedorian is dead," Garrus had told him. "You're the new Primarch." But Adrien had lived a whole life before those fateful words were said to him.
Excerpt: The Captain unfurled his posture from the table, rising to his full height. Behind his amber eyes, a hundred scenarios played out in his skull, the best components from each of them reconstructing themselves like puzzle pieces to ultimately create a strategy that imbued his second vocals with conviction as he met the officers’ gazes and told them plainly: “Then open the gates.”

Summary
It was the year 2157, and humanity had touched the stars at last. Gazing up into the dark abyss, it was hard to believe there may be life on other planets. Intelligent life, capable of building great cities and spaces. Those that knew her, knew that Amelia Karsten-Shepard was one such idealist.
When humanity does make contact with another species, the incident is bloody and brutal, and Amelia is ripped from her familiar normal into an alien cell as a prisoner of war, faced with an enemy that looks, thinks, and feels nothing like her.

Summary
“The first words they say to you are tattooed somewhere on your body.” Shepard explained.
Garrus blinked, his subvocals pitching in disbelief. “That’s… so inefficient.”
“Alright, how do Turians find their soulmates?” She demanded.
“On the civilized side of the galaxy-“ she gave a rather undignified snort, “we find our bondmates through song.”
