Q

How did the Rachni Wars start?

A

Circa 1 CE, a team of Salarian explorers were activating dormant Mass Relays. This particular relay opened up to a part of the Attican Traverse where the Rachni - a species of highly intelligent space-faring, hive-minded insects - had established.

As no communication could be established between the Citadel species and the Rachni, conflict broke out.

26
Q

What is the story of the Shroud facility on Tuchanka?

A

Following the outbreak of war between the Citadel species and the Rachni, the Citadel sought help from the Krogan.

Tough as they were, the Krogan were far behind the other races technologically, and were living in radioactive waste.

The Salarians built several towers, collectively known as the Shroud facility, which worked to neutralise the air.

Following the Release of the Genophage, the last remaining Shroud tower was sabotaged by a Salarian STG unit to prevent a cure from being dispersed from the tower. This sabotage can be overridden by Mordin in 2186.

Q

Why did the Quarians lose their embassy on the Citadel.

A

An event is stored in the Citadel Archives: the extermination of the last Artificial Intelligences.
Although it is dated 1896, the year of the Morning War, Shepard can inquire to Tali about the legality of the creation of the Geth.

The Archive may have been created in 1896 to remind authorised users why AIs had been banned, or they could be in reference to the Geth. There is reference to a rogue Asari AI called Tallaris, which required the council to wipe out a colony to shut down, which would support the former.

The Geth were originally meant to operate like VIs though they had network intelligence, meaning that when enough units had been created, they “evolved” into an AI race.

Whether the creation of AIs was illegal before the Morning War is unconfirmed, but from 1896 onwards, creating an AI was against the highest laws.
This is why the Quarians lost their embassy.
