The geth revere them.

The geth believe the Reapers are gods. And Saren is the prophet for their return.

Saren thinks it can bring back the Reapers. That's bad enough.

Asari CouncilorThis is different. You proved Saren betrayed the Council. We all agree he's using the geth to search for the Conduit, but we don't really know why.E11 · string 105721
Salarian CouncilorThe Reapers are obviously just a myth, Commander. A convenient lie to cover Saren's true purpose. A legend he is using to bend the geth to his will.E12 · string 1057223 choices

I've seen them!

Shepard says

Fifty thousand years ago, the Reapers wiped out all galactic civilization. If Saren finds the Conduit, it will happen again!

Turian CouncilorSaren is a rogue agent on the run for his life. He no longer has the rights or resources of a Spectre. The Council has stripped him of his position.E13 · string 105723 · transition 5686:-1
AmbassadorThat is not good enough! You know he's hiding somewhere in the Traverse. Send your fleet in!E14 · string 105724
