    Summary

    After two years of the pandemic, Aspen quits her job to make her long-held but never-fulfilled wish of traveling the world a reality. In a temple in Hong Kong she picks up a stone, which at first seems quite normal - but when she wants to leave the temple, Hong Kong has disappeared and she finds herself on an endless grassy plain, with a white city in the distance. For four long years, Aspen learns to hold her ground in Minas Tirith, always with one goal in mind: she wants to go back home. No matter the cost.

    Summary

    “Something on your mind, Big Guy?” she asks.

    Big Guy? He thinks he’ll let her get away with that. “Wondering if I wanna let you leave here without learning your name.”

    She hums as she moves towards the front door. “I think it would be for the best that we remain anonymous to each other.”

    Oh. His mandibles flatten to his face as he attempts to keep his composure. This shouldn’t bother him so much. He clears his throat. “Right. Makes sense.”

    “If we see each other again, though, then we can take that as a sign.”

    AKA, The first contact war has just ended, and the humans and turians have agreed upon an alliance through marriage. Novella Shepard is the human volunteer, which she has no qualms about...until she meets Garrus Vakarian, whom she has a brief yet passionate affair with. Except he is not the turian volunteer. So now they must navigate their newfound friendship (with a desire for more than neither can act on) while also trying to discover just who is trying cause Novella harm over displeasure for seemingly both humans and the alliance. In the end, will the alliance come to fruition, or will it turn into another disaster?
