===Forbidden Love===
During the Era, Jade was once human, engaged in a secret relationship with a Low Guardian named Sorren. Sorren's desire for a child, which was considered a violation of the Legems, worried him. Jade dismissed his worries in the belief that Sorren would always protect them."You're going to be a father, Sorren." - Jade
"But... the Legems! If the Lords found out-" - Sorren
"You'll take care of us, always, won't you?" - Jade:
Flashback during Jade Shadows.
Jade and Sorren were eventually caught by Executor Ballas, who saw their relationship as spiteful."-But you chose to spite Us. And for that sin, you will mother only ashes and oblivion. Jade." - Ballas, Memory Feather 02 As punishment, Jade was forcibly transformed into a Warframe while pregnant, where Ballas taunted her failure to birth the child. Her source of power, the Jade Light, resulted in the Orokin's need to contain her in a hibernation pod within the execution chamber on Lua. Her only moments of freedom being to carry out the Seven's executions. Believing her to be in a dreamless sleep within her pod, unbeknownst to them, Jade would instead dream of seeing her child's face, and the time they would have spent together.Jade's Promise, Memory Feather 03
Ballas would continue to taunt Jade, stating that Sorren was still alive, having been transformed into a Warframe just like herself. Sorren only blamed himself, and, seeking to repent, chose to loyally serve the Orokin in hope of seeing his wife again.Jade's Promise, Memory Feather 04
Jade was eventually given an Operator, and sent on an assignment to Mars. Horrified at what the Orokin did to the child, Jade lulled her Operator to sleep and fought of her own free will to spare the child, believing that the Orokin's reckoning would one day come.Jade's Promise, Memory Feather 05
When the Naga drums echoed the night of the Orokin Fall, Jade finally encountered Sorren, who had become the being known as Stalker, but he did not recognize her. As the began to massacre the Orokin at the Terminus, Jade fought her way to Sorren and flew him away, ultimately arriving at what would later become Hunhow's tomb on Uranus.Jade's Promise, Memory Feather 06 Recalling the taunts of Ballas that her unborn child may stir if she laid still for a long time, Jade spent the remainder of her life channeling all energy into her pregnancy.Jade's Promise, Memory Feather 07
===Jade's Passing===
In the present, Jade had fallen critically ill. The Stalker attempted to nurse her back to health as thanks for saving his life. Despite his attempts at stealing Bioplasma from the and Cortichrome from the, Jade's life continued to fade. Hunhow urged Stalker to move past his hate, finally forcing him to turn to the Operator for help. Via Transference, the Operator discovered that Jade is not fighting an illness, but is instead gestating a child. Despite the Stalker's help, the Operator can only help Jade with her birth, and she ultimately dies soon after, dissolving into motes of green light while comforting Stalker one last time.
While attempting to heal Jade, Stalker would catch the attention of the Corpus Captain Xeto, who raids his lair soon after Jade dies. Stalker, now protecting his newborn son, fights past the invading Corpus to reach the surface. Upon reaching his ship, Xeto corners Stalker with a barrage of laser fire. However, upon hearing the cries of the child, Xeto orders her forces to stand down and allows the Stalker to escape.
After reminiscing his promise to protect his family, Stalker names the child either Sirius or Orion.
Finally, Hunhow then contacts the Tenno. Despite Stalker's hatred, he entrusts Jade's blueprint to them, believing its what Jade would have wanted.
===Granum's Desecration===
When Jade died, she disintegrated into motes of Jade Light which have now permeated the Stalker's hideout. Sensing opportunity, Corpus Founder Parvos Granum sends his Corpus to collect the motes to further his Jade Eximus project,"Ordis will not stand idly by while Parvos Granum reaps the last vestiges of Jade for his Eximus executioner program. He must be DENIED." - Ordis, during Operation: Belly of the Beast. intent on using her power as a tool of his desire."Cephalon! I know who you are. Well, were. Do you think you are helping Jade? Preserving her honour? Her dignity? The Orokin used her like they used you. A pantomime of justice and truth. She could have been a force of something greater. She still can, as a weapon of my righteous desire. The free hand of the market made freer one smouldering beam of Jade Light after another!" - Parvos Granum, during Operation: Belly of the Beast. However, Parvos's current Jade Eximus are unfinished, requiring Jade's to perfect them. The Tenno fight to collect these motes first, consigning them to be burned in the sun so Jade can finally be at rest."Jade's light will be returned to the life-giving fire of our sun." - Ordis
Despite his remaining hatred for the Tenno, the Stalker would provide them aid, and could be seen fighting alongside them.
The Tenno are ultimately victorious, with Parvos now attempting to harvest Jade's lesser to complete his project. However, due to their lack of sheer power compared the Volatile Motes, his progress is virtually halted."-Operator, Ordis detects no more Volatile Motes within the Stalker's Lair. Parvos can, and likely will still try to harvest Vestigial Motes... but they lack the sheer power he needs to complete his Jade Eximus project. His desire is thwarted. His dream of an Jade Eximus army? Finished. We have won." - Ordis, at the end of Belly of the Beast.
