You asked for reinforcements. We brought a galaxy. By Jupiter, the starlight tore; Two Earths looked through one open door. We shared the paths beyond relays, They shared their shields, their healing ways. Humanity earned a Council chair, For roads and strength we chose to share. Not just our flags. Not just our kind. No distant world gets left behind. The Covenant came down on Reach; A thousand engines filled the breach. Asari light and Turian steel, A galaxy that would not kneel. Jorge walks the fields he fought to save; Kat's laughter rides the carrier wave. Six lifts his visor to the sun; Six voices answer, not just one! Hold the line! We brought the stars! No one stands alone! Through the fire, across the dark, We bring each other home! Not one more friend we could have saved, Not one more empty chair. When the night comes for your world, Look up! We will be there! The rings meant death, not paradise; Their empire cracked beneath its lies. Elites brought down the Prophets' throne; Their people chose a path of their own. The Arbiter raised his sword anew: "No chains. We choose to stand with you." We sealed the Flood behind its doors; No holy fire would burn our shores. Virmire burns; two shuttles climb. We had the hands. We had the time. When Sovereign reached the Citadel, The Autumn rang his funeral bell. With Shepard's strike, his shields gave way; The Council saw another day. We mapped the lair where captives cried; Our slipspace fleet struck from the side. Collectors fell; their cages torn, Whole families saw another dawn. Mordin and Halsey worked through dawn, Sent drones where one man would have gone. The cure rained down through krogan skies; He stayed to hear their children's cries. Thane breathed deep beside his son; The cure held fast. Their days went on. No final prayer through failing breath - A father's years reclaimed from death. Cure dispersed. Team intact. Still time for seashells. Cortana met Legion's gaze; Two kinds of mind found other ways. They shared the load, preserved each name; Not one erased to feed the flame. His people rose; his voice remained. The geth helped break her seven-year chain. Their makers walked beside them home; No mind of light was left alone. Hold the line! We brought the stars! No one stands alone! Through the fire, across the dark, We bring each other home! Not one more friend we could have saved, Not one more empty chair. When the night comes for your world, Look up! We will be there! We found the Fire adrift and cold, Brought Cutter's crew back to the fold. Sovereign's wreck revealed the seams; We built guns to break those old machines. Two skies of shipyards, white with heat, Put sharper teeth in every fleet. We slipped beyond their guarded lanes - No ancient map would be our chains. Shepard. You held Reach. Now we hold Earth. Noble drops through London's smoke, Chief and Shepard breach the choke. Johnson leads the next advance; Garrus and Jun give death no chance. Spirit of Fire sends armor down; Infinity breaks their iron crown! Geth and Elites, our sights aligned; Reaper shields crack, one at a time. Through shattered shields our broadsides fly; Harbinger falls. The harvest dies! No Crucible decides our end - Just fleets, and steel, and every friend! Hold the line! We brought the stars! No one stands alone! Through the fire, across the dark, We brought each other home! Not one more friend we could have saved, Not one more empty chair. When the night came for our worlds, You looked up. We were there! Reach still green. Two Earths still turning. Windows lit, not cities burning. Shepard rests. The Chief comes home. Two skies of stars. No one stands alone. #Halo #MassEffect #WhatIf Credits Song and lyrics: Tales in Melody (original).
