Summary
Commander Jane Shepard was raised among ships, soldiers, and duty, but Akuze taught her that even the Alliance can leave its own behind. Hardened by survival and driven by a ruthless need to protect the people under her command, Jane becomes humanity’s first Spectre and uncovers a threat older than civilisation itself.
Across the war against Saren, Cerberus, and the Reapers, Jane finds an unexpected anchor in Dr. Liara T’Soni: archaeologist, scholar, Shadow Broker, and the one person who sees past the commander to the woman still alive beneath the scars. As the galaxy burns around them, Jane and Liara build a love strong enough to survive death, war, and the terrible weight of becoming legend.

The Diary of Katherine Shepard by Hawkster94
Fandoms: Mass Effect Trilogy, Mass Effect - All Media Types
21 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
4 years and a half had passed since the galaxy emerged victorious against the Reapers. Recovery process is still ongoing, with the trauma of the war still lingering on, physical, mental, and emotional.
Inspired by the unfinished diaries that her former mentor, Admiral David Anderson, left in his former Citadel Apartment prior to his demise, now retired Commander Katherine Shepard decides to do her own diary detailing her early life, her career, the defining three years of her life, and what has she been up to since the end of the Reaper War.
Although it might be for the fun of it or just out of boredom, Shepard is writing her diary to help find her own closure.
NOTICE: This fic is based on the ending headcanon from AHEM (Audemus Happy Ending Mod), so no Catalyst, no Mass Relays damaged/destroyed, and no Geth/EDI being destroyed either. Additionally, it's based on CEM (Citadel Epilogue Mod), so expect the events of Citadel DLC to play out a few years after the Reaper War.
I should also mention that EGM and LE1/LE3 DP mods factor into this story.

Summary
The colony of Mindoir burned when Khaleesi Shepard was sixteen years old. Slavers took everything from her. Her home, her family, and the future she had imagined. Years later, a disastrous mission on Akuze left her the sole survivor of an entire unit. Since then, Shepard has lived by one simple truth: everyone dies. She survives.
Now, an Alliance officer on the verge of becoming humanity's first Spectre, Shepard is sent to Eden Prime to investigate a routine distress call. Instead, she uncovers evidence of an ancient threat capable of wiping out every advanced species in the galaxy.
As visions of destruction haunt her and the rogue Spectre Saren races to unlock a forgotten secret, Shepard must lead a desperate hunt across the stars. Alongside soldiers Kaidan Alenko and Ashley Williams, a stubborn turian investigator, a brilliant quarian engineer, a cynical krogan mercenary, and an archaeologist obsessed with the past, she discovers something she thought she lost long ago.
A family.
As war looms and impossible choices test her resolve, Shepard must decide whether to trust those beside her, or remain what she has always been.
A sole survivor.
