In the early stages of the comic (I drew this like four years ago?) I really had no plan. It was just a capture of thoughts that were going through my head surrounding my experience of the game (I think I was on my fourth playthrough - I was a late comer to the game).
Something that stuck out to me from the early stages of my first playthrough of the original trilogy was how The Reapers were an allegory of depression, for me. As in, the mental illness "depression". The sense of being overwhelmed, futility, "where the hell do I start", "no one believes me when I talk about this treat until it's too late". And that Hans Zimmer brass blast used to announce their approach? Something about it just made me constantly feel it a great depiction of my experience with the illness.
Mass Effect Lost Scrolls follows the crew of The Normandy as they are led by Commander Maru Shepard during his duties as a Spectre under Council Space.
