As part of my "
Reaper's say the darndest things" quote series I decided to make a best of called "
The very hungry harbingers".
First up we have these awe inspiring extracts from "
Tea time with Sovereign"
“You touch my mind fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.”
“I am beyond your comprehension. I am Sovereign.”
“You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it.”
“The Protheans were not the first. They did not create the Citadel. They did not forge the mass relays. They merely found them - the legacy of my kind.”
“We are each a nation - independent, free of all weakness."
“We have no beginning. We have no end. We are infinite.”
“Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident.
“You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it.”
“I am the vanguard of your destruction."
“I am Sovereign. And this station is MINE!”Next we have these heart warming quotes from “
A coffee break with Harbinger”
“I am Harbinger.”
“I am the Harbinger of your perfection.”
“I am the Harbinger of your ascendance.”
“I am unstoppable.”
“You will not stop me.”
“The forces of the universe bend to me.”
“I sense your weakness.”
“I will show you true power.”
“My attacks will tear you apart.”
“Shepard, I always survive.”
“You cannot kill me, Shepard.”
“Why do you resist me, Shepard?”
“If I must tear you apart, Shepard, I will.”
“You only damage the vessel, you cannot hurt me.”
“I will direct this personally.”
“I will find you again.”
“I am releasing this form.”
“I am limitless. You are bacteria.”
“This seems a victory to you. A star system sacrificed, but even now your greatest civilizations are doomed to fall. Your leaders will beg to serve us.”And if that didn’t make you want to throw your body on the nearest dragons teeth we have more Harbinger quips from
“Water cooler chats with Object Rho”“Struggle, if you wish. Your mind will be MINE!”
“Take him to the med bay and patch him up. We want Shepard alive!”Notable mention must go to the Reaper of Rannoch for giving us this little insight:
"Shepard. Harbinger speaks of you."Which I assume means Shepard must have been brought up in conversation during Harbinger and Rannoch Reaper’s most recent game of botchy.
But now we have a late arrival to the series who is deserving of a dishonorable mention, the Justin Bieber of Reaping: StarBrat. Who seems to contradict all of our favorite Reaper quotes with these rather contradictory statements:
"When fire burns, is it at war? Is it in conflict? Or is it simply doing what it was created to do? We are no different."
"I control the Reapers. They are my solution."
“I embody the collective intelligence of all Reapers.”
“My creators gave them form. I gave them function. They, in turn, give me purpose.”And the creepiest line of all comes when Shepard asks about the creators:
“The Reapers are a synthetic representation of my creators. They became the first true Reaper. They did not approve, but it was the only solution.”And when in context of this the following line becomes even creepier:
“Synthetics must be allowed to evolve. They must, by definition, surpass their creators.”So as far as I can tell the StarBrat either contradicts what the Reaper's have told us in the past or he is truly in control and he has been lying to us from the very start. Not only this but due to the extended conversations there's now implications that he reaped his own creators ... creepy!
