Shepard has loved Liara for years, but she's never acted on it. (It's Shiara, really. I promise they end up together at the end, ok?) M just for some language.

The galaxy struggles to heal from the unimaginable sacrifices that stopped the Reapers. Its many peoples look to the future with hope, yet some seek to capitalize on chaos.
