I have a few problems with this, but only a few.
It's stated that the Thessia Beacon was intentionally hidden by the Asari, we have no idea where it originally was buried.
It's a big-ass structure. Unless they had significant technological assistance, they couldn't have moved it. Excavated and bilt over it, sure. But moveing it intact? And it didn't appear to be something easily broken apart and put back together either.
But they did discover it by way of Prothean survivors who led them like Gods...
Were they actually meddleing in asari affairs or were they mostly keeping their distance when they weren't experimenting on the primitives? Remember, human scientists don't rule over the wild species they study. They observe, protect and occasionally experiment, but never assert dominance. The ethical ones, anyway.
Also, you are forgetting Victory, in the flashbacks, had a fairly positive outlook too; "They will be remembered in the coming empire." Things to that effect.
That's what he's saying. Vendetta is acting suspiciously compared to the other VIs we see.
Also, you notice each VI has a name, starting with V indicative of their purpose. Vigil was meant to keep watch, Victory was meant to secure their final victory through Prothean Survivors forming a new empire. What is Vendetta's purpose? Why would it be stored in a beacon in the first place?
Maybe the person the VI is based off of took the war a little personal? Like Shepard does?
HOW would it be stored in the beacon in a way that could be stolen?
It's software, remember?
My biggest question actually is why, after fifty asari lifetimes, no asari was able to activate the beacon, learn of the reapers, and prepare the Crucible beforehand. You'd think that if the protheans were grooming the asari to succeed them they'd leave instructions or something.
Simon, we managed to move pyramid blocks with wooden rollers. Imagine what we could have moved with natural biotics enhanced by a Prothean "god"?
That was how it started out, but if you look around the meuseum, you'll notice alot of things indicating that these were Protheans who had survived the cataclysm by hiding on the Asari world, and then the three Prothean scientists lived among the Asari and lead them as mythical pre-historical figures, giving them the secrets to agriculture and such. Or at least that was the implication I got.
Hey, come to think of it, the Asari and Quarians were considered somewhat attractive by Prothean standards, perhaps there's some Prothean blood living on in the Asari. Sort of.
But the implication I WAS giving was, perhaps these survivors were the abandoned, indoctrinated slaves the Reapers leave behind when the cycle is done, and this bunch was getting orders to artifically ensure the dominance of a race incapable of defeating the Reapers, rather than letting, say Humans dominate the politics of the galaxy.
I know, this is me providing more anecdotal evidence.
I'm not sure, as I said, Vendetta isn't paticularly descriptive of his purpose. Perhaps Venture, Vouchsafe, or Vision, Vendetta is accepting they have already lost and require "Vengance", Vendetta is a bitter and destructive feud defined by acts of revenge, not a means of securing final victory or freedom, not a method of winning, but a method of prolonging ill will.
