Lost Ark Theories: Which is the Lost Ark & What Happened to It?
So about this upcoming book which intriguingly refers to a 'Lost Ark'. The Hyperion supposedly arrives 37 years later than the other arks in the Andromeda Initiative making the Hyperion the 'lost ark' so far as we know (at least from our perspectives) but isn't this probably just a bit of cheap misdirection and when we finally make contact with the other arks... surprise-surprise we find out the 'lost ark' actually refers to one of the other species' arks which is genuinely missing and has never been found yet?
If this is the case which one of these arks do you think is the missing one and what do you think might have happened to it?

I doubt the Salarian's ark is missing, as with the recent VA interview video seems to suggest the Salarians greet us in andromeda or at least are at the nexus.
My money is on the Asari at the moment if they aren't referring to the human ark.

I mean, Vetra has some issues with her sister, but although we don't know what these issues are, I doubt it will have to do with the fact she (and thus the Turian ark) is missing or something. |

OP, I think you got the arks switched up. The Natanis is the Turian ark and the Parchero is the Salarian Ark.

I voted asari because they seem to be the writers pet for things like this. Human might be too obvious, but could be. It seems Salarians are most unlikely, then Turians.
Kind of off topic, but I'm replaying ME1 atm and there is a bit of dialogue near the beginning of the game, on Noveria, that says Synthetic Insights is one of four corporations that are certified by the council to perform Artificial Intelligence development. Possible link to Andromeda Initiative origins?

I pretty sure it's the Asari ark that is lost. I think it was mentioned before, if I'm not mistaken. It could be multiple, but most likely not.

True, it was just conjecture on my part that Vetra's sister is a Turian colonist... anywho, it was said she is very protective of her. Little leap of logic there. |

My intuition fails me on this one. On one hand Hyperion is literally lost and Lunesia is literally destroyed(?). On the other - we'll know everything what happened on Hyperion first hand in-game, while with asari Ark we'll supposedly deal with consequences of what happened there. I dont know but I would freaking LOVE a mass effect horror themed game set in the Lost Ark which has been infected by semi sentient reaper tech How about fully-sentient reaper tech? Which tells you what to do on every step.
The horror.

I have not read any of the books yet... didn't even think they were out yet. The Asari Ark has been destroyed? I was thinking maybe that the Helius sector may be to the locals viewed as cursed or have some superstition attached to it like the Bermuda Triangle. I dont know but I would freaking LOVE a mass effect horror themed game set in the Lost Ark which has been infected by semi sentient reaper tech How about fully-sentient reaper tech?

One of leaks mentioned mission with asari escape pods. They could be from any ship, mind yo (hence "?" mark), but Ark is also a possibility. |
