What if once, the Reapers were targets on the Cycle of Extinction, and killed the other species that was doing that? Like the Shadow Broker, 1st Shadow Broker.......2nd Shadow Broker..........3RD Shadow Broker ( Liara), Sovereign said itself, " We have no end. We have no beginning. We are infinite." What if he wasn't talking about the Reapers, but indeed, all the species that once executed the Cycle of Extinctionand? I know this sound weird, but if my theory is correct, this was inspired in Star Wars, where a Sith Apprentice must kill his Master to assume that role, and train another to do the same, but Darth Sidious killed his apprentices first( Like the Reapers, killed who was going to kill them). What if their names aren't Reapers, and it is the name given for the species that do the Cycle? What if once they were the good guys?
