Summary
First contact was supposed to be historic.
Instead, it was a war.Two years into the conflict between humanity and the Turian Hierarchy, Commander Stella Shepard—callsign Valkyrie—has become one of the Alliance’s most effective weapons: a biotic vanguard who wins battles with precision, restraint, and an inconvenient habit of asking why.
On the other side of the front, Garrus Vakarian—Centurion—is tasked with stopping her. He studies her patterns, counters her moves, and begins to suspect that the war itself is being handled with catastrophic short-sightedness.
Somewhere between enemy fire, illicit communications, and one reckless, impossible meeting on Omega, respect becomes understanding—and understanding becomes something far more dangerous.
When command decides that ending the war requires annihilation, not restraint, both are forced to choose between loyalty and conscience, survival and truth.
This is a story about first contact done wrong, the cost of obedience, and what happens when two people decide the future is worth risking everything for—even each other.
