Sitting at the end of my most successful full series run of Mass Effect. Elizabeth Shepard, the spacer military brat who helped defend the colonies, master of stealth then tech then stealth once more (taking the defence drone back with her), now stands on the eve of the battle for Earth. In her memories, Thane, Miranda and Jack, each of whom she feels she failed. In her mind, every member of her crew, every promise made, every plan for the oncoming assault. In her heart, Kaidan Alenko, the only one she has ever loved, though she regrets the pain the love has caused them both over the years. She never asked to become this paragon, this beacon to the many races, but she's done her best, standing by her ideals and beliefs through thick and thin. Tomorrow, her tale concludes. Wish us luck.
