Summary
After escaping the Cage for Gods, Rook finally admits the truth he’s been running from: he remembers Varric’s death at the ritual site. Surrounded by Neve, Taash, Davrin, Emmrich, and Lucanis, he speaks the memory aloud for the first time, breaking through the illusions that haunted him. The confession cracks something open in him — grief, guilt, and the fragile relief of finally being believed. Even Spite, the demon bound to Lucanis, reacts to the raw honesty in the room. Supported by the people who refused to give up on him, Rook begins to reclaim what’s real, taking his first step toward healing while Harding remains unconscious and Bellara is still missing.

When Scout Harding falls on the Isle of Gods, everyone believes she’s gone — everyone except the stone that refuses to let her die. Encased in Titan‑forged protection, Harding lies suspended between life and death while Taash, Neve, and the others fight to bring her home. As the world reels from gods and illusions, the people who love her refuse to let her become another name carved into the war. This is the story of what the stone kept safe… and the moment she finally returns.

Summary
Reconciling is hard.
Things never went according to plan, not really. Not with Shepard. Eden Prime. Noveria. Virmire. Alchera. Shepard was like a ship that skipped off the atmosphere every time he set a course for re-entry. With Shepard there was no script. No rehearsal. You just had to go with your gut.
