Sooo, I'm really excited about this theory, and I haven't seen any that are similar, love to hear some feedback,
and by the way, sorry they're poorly constructed paragraphs. I was really tired when I wrote this.
I'm guessing for the most part that the cybernetics and organic are
either the Protheans becoming the Collectors, or the creation of a
Prothean-Reaper. My theory mostly focuses on the end of the vision
though. I have a theory that a friend of mine gave me, involving the
collapsing star near Haestrom, that Tali'Zorah nar Rayya was
investigating on Freedom's Progress. She mentions that the failing star
may be due to dark energy. In the Prothean beacon vision, we can see
what appears to be a two star beginning to activate/erupt. I believe
that it is possible that, since the remaining Protheans on Ilos at an
unspecified time, released the warning message through the galactic
beacon system that would alert any surviving Protheans alive. But these
remaining Prothean scientists spent many decades researching and trying
to find out what happened. We all know those sole surviving scientists
realized that the mass relays and the Citidel were of Reaper origin, and
found ways to backwards create the relays (The Conduit) So what's
stopping the Protheans there? My theory starts here, the remaining
Protheans probably after creating the conduit, may have conducted more
research into the relay technology and dark energy. They may have found a
way to defeat the Reapers through dark energy from which comes from
unnaturally failing stars or other sources. Another possibility is that
when the Reapers return for their "cycle", they have to replenish on
Dark Energy and all someone would have to do would be to cut their
energy source off(which I believe are only specific stars), by
destroying the dark energy source. After realizing this, the surviving
Protheans sent the message Shepard and Saren saw through the beacons,
trying to show what Protheans may be left, where the conduit is, and how
to fight back. There is a large amount of symbolism of stars with
pre-supernova effects within ME 1 and 2 (In the Prothean Beacon vision,
the Illusive Man's backdrop in his base, Dholen, the sun near Haestrom,
etc. It is a little suspicious that Dholen is in Geth space, where
Soverign would have had access to it, and could have altered its aging
for a higher purpose. The Reapers are using the stars' dark matter in
part of their process and it's probably their weakness. I'm probably
wrong though!
(Edit:) I just read about the new arrival DLC, and it even
strengthens my theory, the Alpha relay, when pushed to its full
potential, uses unfathomable amounts of dark energy, and can travel to
any mass relay in the galaxy.(Back up plan for the Reapers?) It also
states that Object Rho, a Reaper relic, or (imo)some kind of
tracking/navigation system for Reapers, of which was found on the edge
of a Batarian system, has a very strong element zero core, which must
also be powered by dark energy, if it can do all the things mentioned in
a conversation with Dr. Amanda Kenson. This just shows Reaper
involvement with dark energy and how far they advanced the technology,
which has hardly been utilized to its full potential by current races.
The Reaper energy cores are complex, but can they run forever while they
are fully functional? While in dark space in between cycles they go
into "hibernation" (it does even say that Sovereign was "hibernating" in
Mass Effect: Revelation), but why would a they need to shut down during
these periods if they are "infinite", unless they need some sort of
replenishment? I know the derelict Reaper and Object Rho's idle time
span without recharging is unknown, for the derelict Reaper, 37 million
years at least, but they are both just running minimal core limits(mass
effect fields and indoctrination device). Or could the Reapers use this
kind of power to make sure they exterminate every last being in the
universe after collecting what resources they need, and covering their
tracks to hide their existance. Hence in the DLC Arrival, when the Mass
Relay explodes, it wipes out the whole star system and that's just the
technology the Reapers left for the other races, who knows what they are
really capable of or what technology they're hiding. Also if you watch
the failure video of the Reaper Arrival countdown in the DLC, you can
see vision of the Reapers killing, what appears to be the beginning of a
supernova, and Yeoman Chambers getting disintegrated into ashes.
What's theory is obvious I hope, but if I stated any "facts" they're straight out of the codex's.
Let me know what you guys think, and tell me if you find any holes too please, or if data is proven otherwise!
