Not mutch happens this chapter.
Year 2023 - Thessia, Armali, Armali state scientific ward
"Ah matriarch benezia, welcome" the receptionist give the formal greeting of touching her chest , lips and forehead before bowing.
"And matron shiala, a pleasure as always" this time the receptionist just bows her head.
"Thank you for your kind greeting but we are here to collect my daughter and the 'human' child" Benezia informed her.
"The human child, I thought we were going to continue experimenting on her. Poor thing" She replies sadly.
Shiala shudders at the thought. "Yes, she is to come with us back to house T'soni"
The receptionist looked at her strangely "I was not aware that house T'soni had a research department"
Benezia shook her head "It does not, we are taking the child to raise her. It was the least i could do after what she has given me and liara"
she said with a smile.
"Very well matriarch, this way please" she said as the turned down the hall. "I take it you have been informed of her needs?"
"Needs?" Shiala replied.
"Yes, there are not many. she is nearly identical to an asari in her growth, what she eats and how she... relieves herself" she said after a pause.
The matriarch just laughed and shook her head "You need not be so embarrassed about talking about a natural way the body works"
"I apologise matriarch" she said hastily with a smile of her own.
"No need" she replies simply
Shiala stayed silent wondering 'I wonder if what the matriarch said is true, is she truly an asari now? or was it just a reassurance. We shall see' Once again she caught herself admiring the mariarchs curves when she should not be.
"Here we are" The receptionist announced while standing over two cots. One had a light blue child with small freckles on her face and deep blue eyes.
And on the other bed was a similarly shaped child, but she was a lovely light tan color with deep black hair and piercing dark blue eyes.
"They seem to be healthy after the augmentation, and as expected now with the DNA the human child's growth has slowed to match an asari child while her brain has begun to grow far faster" She looked around exitedly "We umm, have noticed a side effect from the biotic augmentation" she said while looking somewhat exited.
"What would that side effect be?" Shiala asked curious as to what has her exited.
"It's quite amazing actually, originally this human would have had to have a biotic implant to use her biotics. But now they will come to her as naturally as any asari born." She shook her head in amazement "and because of the merging of the human DNA in your daughter these two children when they are grown could become very powerful biotic given the time and training. But that has come forward as an unfortunate side affaect that there motabolism is heigher than normal, and if they dont get a release of biotic energy if they have been gathering it it can become dangerious to not release it"
Shiala looked skeptical while the matriarch amused. "I always knew liara would be an amazing biotic given her heritage, but for the human as well. I will keep this in mind for their biotic training" Benezia shook her head in amusement.
"Shiala, I have decided that you will be training these two in their biotics and in combat" Benezia announced after several moments of deliberation.
"So it shall be, mistress" Shiala vowed staring at Benezia a bit longer that she perhaps should, again.
Benezia noticed the gaze but decided to ignore it. "Shiala we need a name for her child" Benezia asked
"Hmmm, Amina?" Shiala asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Asana" Benezia announced with a smile.
Shiala nodded "That sounds lovely"
"Asana T'Soni?" the receptionist asked
"No" benezia said
Shiala looked over the child and said "Shall we ask sha'ira? She has chosen names for people before?"
"Hmm, Yes let us do that" Benezia replied as she bent down to pick up liara "Shiala could you please take asana, we will take our leave"
"Yes mistress" Shiala replied then ben down to collect asana.
Year 2023 - Thessia, Armali, Consort sha'ira's office
"Sha'ira, how has your day been" Benezia asked as she walked gracefully into the office.
"My day has been fine Benezia" She replied with a smile "What can I do for you today?" She said curiously eyeing the bundle of cloth in her hands.
"It is a long story but in short I need a second name for a child, before you ask it is not my own but I will treat it as such" Benezia conveyed.
"Let me see" she said as she stood from her desk as she walked over, the matriarch peeled open the cloth and showed it to sha'ira.
"What is this" She asked curiously
"It is a long story and I do not have the time, I brought it here so you can look at her and give her a name" Benezia replied with a look that said 'I will tell you later, dear friend'
Sha'ira nodded closed her eyes and after a few seconds said "She will be a strong warrior, a leader one the people look up to in a time of darkness. She will be a leader of the people, she will be a shepard"
Benezia mulled over this briefly, "A shepard you say?" She asked
"Yes" sha'ira replied already knowing where this was going.
"Asana Shepard, it roll's off the tongue quite nicely. Yes. Asana Shepard will be her name. Thank you sha'ira, I will raise her as if she was one of my own". Benezia stated with a smile.
"I pray to the goddess that she grows healthy Benezia" Sha'ira said while smiling as the sat down.
"Thank you but now I must take my leave and leave her with liara and her minder mekera" As she turned to leave 'Shepard indeed, I have great hope in you young one' Benezia thought.
An that is how Asari!Shep got her name.
