    Summary

    They stand apart from humans as heroes, saviors, and gods among men. But when we stand in the shadows of gods, we fail to see the cost to them. Sometimes the only one that can understand the weight of the universe is someone else who bears it.

    After the end of Halo 3, the Master Chief - soldier, Spartan, saviour - is flung into the Mass Effect universe where he is discovered by Abigail Shepard, legendary Spectre and hero of humanity. A meeting of absolute cosmic impossibility within a chain of events that will threaten both of their universes.

    Along the way three venerated gods will be forced to tackle the concept of 'being human'.

    Summary

    January hasn’t thought much about wedding anniversaries, but when he learns Mars doesn’t celebrate them, he can’t help but feel a sense of loss. The romantic in him wants to do something special, even though there’s still so much unsaid between him and River.

    Maybe it’s a cultural difference he needs to accept.

    And yet, when the first full Earth year since their vows approaches…he finds himself making some plans.

    Summary

    “It was never supposed to end like this. You were both meant for such happier things.”

    “I was always meant to be a tragedy.” Arthur disagrees.

    “Dearest darling, you are the king of kings, this will not be your end.”

    With Arthur's death comes a single chance to go back to the beginning and save everyone he's ever loved. Seeing home in Merlin's eyes and a hope for a better world in Morgana's, Arthur knows what he must do.

    Only bringing magic back to Camelot will prevent the future he knows is coming from happening, but in his way is the only mountain he's never been able to climb; his father won't change for anyone, not even for his son.
