Theres a codex entry in ME2 about beings of light that fought the Reapers. What if these beings of light were actually the Shadows fron B5?
At the end of B5 the Shadows learn the error of their ways and go beyond the rim with Lorien and the others. Only they dont stay there. They decide to explore the multiverse. One stop they make is in Mass Effect in the dying months of the Prothean Reaper war.
Appaled by what they see - a twisted reflection of themselves and the Vorlons. They help out a bit here and there but know this cycle is lost. They ensure Javicks bunker has enough power, make sure Vendetta survives amd the beacons etc.
They leave but decide to return later to see whats happened (they can pick and choose a time and location to return at). They return at the beginning of ME1 and see the cycle about to repeat. They monitor the situation and see Shepard about to blow the relay in ME2 so instead if letting it happen they lock the relay by freezing it to absolute zero. Something along the lines of what they did to the fleet jump engines at Corianna 6. Later after Shepard is debriefed he's leaving his faveourite store on the Citadel when he is approached by a regular looking man who asks him 'what do you want?'
Without acting openly (e.g heres a bunch of giant laser canons and nano plagues) how do the Shadows, Shepard and the Citadel prepare for the Reapers and what are the consequences?
