Love the intro by Willow. Gives us new perspective on the galaxy you've crafted around these incarnations of the characters, plus the suggestion of deeper mysteries to come makes for a deeper hook...not that this story really needs one. The assault on the Broker's Stronghold was terrific. Loved the way Willow started connecting with Xander again. Great allusions to other bits and pieces throughout the games as well. Really interested in seeing how Willow's going to interact with the rest of the crew. Should make for a good time. Great work. Thanks for sharing.

Yay, partial closure! Good job duder! Still not sure about all the political angles you're trying to take, but meh that's up to you. Still wish we could see more of the Doctor and his crew, but mentions every once in a while are better than nothing. Anyway, good work and here's to hoping we see more soon.

Im glad you aporove since you were the inspiration for some of where this is going. I don't want to ruin it too much for you but you'll appriciate this idea more then most

I've drawn a lot of ideas from The Beast Below & The Hungry Earth and its conclusion as well as the Torchwood miniseries Children of Earth

Trust me, I think you guys are going to love this.

In this corner...The Psychotic Biotic...JACK! and in the other corner...The Wicked Red Witch...WILLOW! (DING!)
and that will wreck the ship beyond repair.

anyway keep up the good work

Another big fight coming up that will proceed to forge the crew into the weapon that will smite the Collectors, can't wait.

Hmm, so they lied about where they are going? I can see a certain mother either tearing apart Illium or terrorizing a certain migrant fleet.

I like how Shepard and Liara are trying to pick up where they left off.

Can't wait to see what predicament Willow is in and how Shepard, Xander and co. are going to save her.

Keep up the good work.

The calm before the battle with the Shadow Broker. The conversation between Shepard and Liara reminded me of that conversation on ME3 that happened before the huge battle on Earth. Maybe because it was before they fought the Shadow Broker that reminded me of this. The emotion of the conversation was great, sad and nice at the same time I like the planning of it and of how the crew who isn't reading for the battles to come, need to come together for this one. I can't wait to see how the battle will turn out. Not to mention the decision of what happens to Willow will happen. Great part keep it up

I'll be honest, touchy-feely stuff is way out of my comfort zone but Shep and Liara's story (I'm a bit of a Liaramancer if you haven't noticed ) made me want to try.

"Bata" support? O_o

If I could I would give you 11 for this story and the prequel. Good writing and excellent characterisation are lovely to see. I really enjoy the way you have gone beyond the base ME storylines to fill in political backstories, off-scene diplomacy etc - and that not all characters are the expected ones (Morinth and her pursuit of Shepard are making me giggle....)

Thank you! Really looking forward to more.

Uh oh, Miranda's curiosity is fully engaged but she is smart enough to solve it unless someone does something very stupid (like die then come back to life).

I also see that she is starting to doubt Timmy, it may be microscopic but soon it will bloom.

Can't wait to see how the Hagalaz situation will turn out and who will rip apart that creepy alien who took over The Shadow Broker position; Liara or Xander?

Keep up the good work.

Good chapter. One thing (which I'm sure others have mentioned). Dr. Chakwas's first name is Karin, not Helen (at least according to the Mass wiki). I'm not sure if that is fanon or not though.

Looking forward to seeing the battle on Hagalaz.

I may retcon Chakwas' name, still not sure though

Great chapter. Keep up the good work.

Happy to see another update. I've been following this one for a long time and updates are always something to look forward to. Thanks for writing.

The enthusiasm of the community has really helped keep me going. The recent DLC release gave me ideas as well that I'm dying to try out ... think Dopplegangland with the volume cranked to eleven.

wooooowhooooo UPDATE....still amazing. Thank you ;D

One more interlude then it's on to the Broker

Love it, Jack and Tali are back... still, we have to deal with Morinth instead of Samara, but either way another Psychotic Biotic is always fun.

Ok, Morinth is becoming a very naughty girl, hope someone gives her a very good slap to smarten her up.

So Jack is going to train Shepard on how to deal with biotics? I hope she doesn't freak out when the slayer plays.

Which might make TIM very happy if he gets the info on that session.

Hope TIMMY wasn't listening in on Xander's and Tali's conversation because he might... wait a sec, he would probably release the old ones if they gave him more power, he would steal candy from a baby if he heard that the candy had god giving power.

Then that means he would be digging himself a DEEPER grave if he kidnaps Willow.

That is a very worrisome situation, good job.

Keep up the good work.

Nice update keep up the good work thanks and bye.
