At long last, Shepard has finally discovered the reason behind Saren’s countless acts of treason and malice. It seems the former Spectre has been indoctrinated by Sovereign; a massive warship belonging to a race of intelligent synthetic beings called Reapers by the long-extinct Protheans.
Worshiped by the geth and capable of bending the minds of organic beings to serve its will, Sovereign has been using Saren to locate a device called the Conduit, an ancient and mysterious mechanism with the power to destroy all life in the galaxy.
With the help of Dr. Liara T’Soni, Shepard has finally managed to pinpoint the Conduit’s location: It lies somewhere on a long-lost world called Ilos. The heroic Spectre’s course is now clear: The Conduit must be destroyed.
