[ A silver lining of hope for those undeserving of the hand they were dealt... and for Shepard, also. Legion's existence in this place, their acceptance of her apology for what she did - of what she had to do - has lifted a weight that pressed down on her since she woke up several days ago.

She will never truly escape the guilt, nor the thoughts on quiet lonely nights that she missed something, a better option that would have been the answer to saving everyone. But Shepard was always going to be haunted by something. If not this, then her inability to mobilise people sooner, to save more lives. What if exercises that serve no purpose other than to punish an idle mind.

For the moment, though, with her mood lifted from the gutter, she gives Legion a small smile. ]

It's good to see you again, Legion.
