The admiral studied the old and worn picture like she had done countless times before. Old and worn... just like me she mused with a wrinkled smile.

How long has it been? Oh yes, she was ten when the commander signed the picture for her. How she had worshipped the commander back then.

And the funny thing was! She still did. She was so big and invincible in the eyes of a child and that had not diminished over the years.



Jane Shepard, the first human Spectre. Jane Shepard who defeated Sovereign. Jane Shepard who took down the collectors. Jane Shepard who killed a

Reaper in close combat. Jane Shepard who's name means hero in Krogan carried resistance, hope and freedom with her like a lamp when darkness

engulfed the galaxy. Jane Shepard who united old enemies and saved the races from doom. You can never live up to something like that. Only hope to

bask it the shadow of the legend. The question was! Were they worthy to do that?



"Perhaps we are" she whispered to her self. The peace lasted. No race wanted to sully the name of the commander or disrespect her sacrifice by starting

petty conflicts. It was an unwritten rule. The Asari even built a temple in the commander's name where young acolytes learned about courage and honor.

The admiral suspected the commander would take offense of that. Forgive them Jane she though. It's just their way of honoring you.



The intercom yanked her back to the present. "Admiral! They are ready for you now" it announced. Admiral Wendy Harper collected her notes for her

retirement speech, but she didn't really need them. She knew the words by heart and they were dedicated to one person. A single title on page one read

"Jane Shepard".
