"RE: What did the Archon actually do and will it kill us?

Please summarize this in a form that Director Tann can easily digest. I'd like him off my ass at our earliest convenience.

We're examining everything, including the "Archon's Eye," his omni-tool equivalent. Many functions remain unknown and seem specific to exaltation (forwarded to Genetics, re: krogan). It appeared to allow the Archon to externally manipulate the SAM connection, but it's unclear how useful the Archon's own data will be. He clearly wasn't aware how difficult it would be to attempt to interface with Meridian, despite observing the hemorrhaging the Pathfinder suffered while interfacing with far smaller Remnant elements.

The data from SAM suggests the Archon managed to poke some form of maintenance protocol. The Remnant that he "summoned" were enacting some form of corrupted cleaning behavior. The Architect was itself in some state of construction/disrepair.

As for Meridian's "activation," that was not the Archon. The simplest analogy is that touching any system was akin to approaching a motion-detecting light. As soon ships approached, Meridian began to transition out of dormancy."
