Summary
2169. Humanity reached the stars, and met its limits.
Once a classified subject at Gagarin Station, Lieutenant Kaidan Alenko carries the quiet legacy of the BAaT program: a body engineered for power, a mind trained for restraint, and a past that still bleeds through the cracks.
When he’s reassigned to the SSV Normandy, he expects duty and protocol — not Commander Shepard, a woman as driven as she is volatile. The galaxy is changing, the Alliance is watching, and control has never been harder to keep.
It takes measured people to survive a war. Shepard is anything but measured.
A canon-compliant retelling of Mass Effect 1 through Kaidan Alenko’s eyes. From the shadows of Gagarin Station to the fire of the Citadel.

Summary
This follows the second game of Mass Effect and continues where Class.i.fied left off

The planet was sealed when she told the Overseers that the Reapers will be arriving soon after she helped defeat Sovereign.
Erinyes must now find a way to get off her home world and back to Garrus. She also needs to get the Reaper weapon schematics back from her abuser, and get the weapons into production. Most importantly she has to convince the Overseers to join the Reaper war of this cycle instead of hide.
A tall order from someone the Overseers see as an object and below them
Garrus exhausts his way through every possible thing he could think of to get her off world, whereas Erinyes decides to show the Overseers what the human phrase 'Fuck around and find out' means. Opting to make their lives as miserable as they made hers.
How will she get off world?
What happens when they finally find each other again? -

Summary
The Covenant War, Citadel Galactic Museum of War
In 2169, the Citadel Council turned its attention to the galaxy’s Frontiers—and found a world on fire. Harvest, a small human colony, was gone. Its cities were ash. Its people were dead. The attackers called themselves the Covenant. Their message was simple: humanity was a sin to be purged.At first, the Council regarded the war as distant, a frontier dispute of little consequence. Yet reports of new species, shattered colonies, and desperate resistance could not be ignored. The Frontiers were not just human. They were home to Maians, Nulls and others—diverse peoples who now fought and died together.
It is said the Council acted. Turian warships deployed. Asari commandos landed. Salarian operatives struck Covenant supply lines. Even the Elcor and Volus are remembered as standing beside Earth’s defenders.
The war did not end there. But something greater began—a united stand across species, governments, and ideals. From fire and ruin, the Citadel embraced the future.
The galaxy, we are told, changed forever.

Summary
Decades ago, a Turian patrol fired on an unknown, heavily armed reconnaissance force attempting to activate relay 314, sparking a war with a new, militant alien society armed with an almost entirely alien technological paradigm.
Though peace was brokered by the council, the Alliance's refusal to join the Council, their belligerent response to external aggression and their embrace of Sapient AI has kept tensions between them simmering.
When a rogue Spectre with an army of hostile AI turns a joint operation into the spark of a new war, keeping the peace will fall to an Alliance Commander and a Spectre. And keeping the peace may well prove to be harder than unraveling the mystery of the rogue Spectre, and his connection to the doom of the Protheans.
