We were brought there to stop Hades from destroying reality. Or at least that was the original purpose, but things have gotten a little more complicated since then.
I'm sorry that your mission was interrupted. When you go back, it should be to the same time that you left, so you don't need to worry about what's happening in your world while you're here. Unfortunately, we're all stuck here for now.
There is a guide that covers everything we know so far about the situation here. I'll forward a copy to you.
Then we anticipate returning to the Normandy and its crew. Preferably sooner, rather than later. It's of the utmost importance.
We are also grateful for the data Minako Arisato has provided. Unfortunately we have nothing in exchange for this data. However, We do have an inquiry.

Okay, this better be the good kind of geth with the robot crush on Shepard and not the psycho ones, 'cause as much fun as blasting your little flashlight head off would be each time Hades brings you back from the dead, that's gonna get old quick.

If that question were simple, I would answer it frankly. Unfortunately, we are all similarly confused. That being said, you are currently in the Underworld of Greek Mythos, originating on Earth I'm told. From what we have been told, we were brought here by the goddess Hecate to be used as distractions for Hades, the lord of this land, who has lost his mind and seeks to destroy all life in the universe.
My name is Sephiroth. [A short pause before the last is added.] What are you called?
The Greek Mythos is something familiar to us, by now. The unfortunate state of the matters doesn't make it any less disruptive. You're input is appreciated and needed. This was data we didn't have.
'Organism' implies that we were ever alive in the same sense that organics are.
Clarification: 'Organics' is a blanket statements. Not every being is of the same species, yet they are all built as their natures intended, not manufactured. Organic.
We are in no part cybernetic, or artificially reproduced. We are not 'synthetic'.

As unfortunate as the destruction of the known universe is, we were already on a mission to save it with Shepard-Commander.

Fact: Jack is here. Hypothesis: Others of the Normandy crew could be, as well.]
We do not "crush on" Shepard-Commander, Jack. It's fortunate that you're alive. Unfortunate within the given circumstances.
Where is the rest of the Normandy crew?

Turns out you don't have to be dead to get dragged down here. Welcome to the Underworld.

We had assumed the human literature, the Odyssey, was merely that.

Damn, that's awesome.

We aren't 'a holy shit'. We are geth.
You are proposing camaraderie? Or demanding it?
[Forgive Legion.]
