A Lifetime of War

CH 1: We are Gods.

We watched humanity from a far for centuries. We learned from out past mistakes with the Krogans and tried to pacify their violent nature. Only then could they take their rightful place amongst us.

In our arrogance we thought we could turn them from potential ally to obedient slave through manipulation of their religious beliefs. Our agents started nearly two decades after the Genophage was unleashed. They located a small group who would later call themselves The Knights Templar. The group itself would be our mouth piece in the new world and guide Humanity into a more obedient way of life.

Our new world was not to be however. Over three hundred years of war we saw our plans fail right before our eyes. It was then we decided to take a more passive approach- to sit back and watch them develop before space flight before we made contact.
