Summary
The search parties finally give up and Commander Shepard is listed as Killed In Action. Everyone returns to their own planets, to help with the reconstruction efforts and to move on. When a strangely intact body is found Miranda is called in as an expert, but if it is Shepard, no one would want to see her this way. She takes her to a hidden lab, not wanting to tell everyone until she is sure it is Shepard and that she will survive.
~
Miranda was devastated for Shepard’s sake, for the first time second guessing if she should have kept it a secret… if she should have tried to bring her back at all. Would she have been better off just slipping into the pages of history she herself had written? Shepard deserved a life of happiness after what she had done for the galaxy, but would she be able to find it without Garrus?
