After her failure to capture Harry Potter at the Malfoy Manor, Bellatrix Lestrange is brought before Voldemort for judgement. However, her unexpected courage has remarkable results...

Even the mighty Shepard, slayer of Reapers, has her limits. As the Reaper War enters its darkest hour these limits begin to be surpassed within the Normandy's War Room, and one unfortunate turian must help her face her burden. Bewarned: this is not a romance piece. One-shot.
