Oh the humanity...
To be mere pawns in a madman quest for ultimate power.
The darkest hour of humanity, we were "saved" by that very madman, aided by the same repented madman. (that's CW1 if you live in a cave).
.
When we retook the stars for ourselves, it was only by using the weapons the madman's daughter (perhaps a fragment of his conscience? see the text in Arca when abraxis choose evil) made from her faint memories of home (yeah, dark beam comes from the same dimension abraxis was "found" by the Loki)...
.
When we got the closest to the truth, it was because that very madman dropped some heavy hints to researchers (see the CW3 ending cutscene).
.
Humanity greatest merit in the CW continuity, is to be a complex enough civilization-making race in order to feed the creeper lots of data to reveal the arc.
.
In the end, there was no human left, our utility gone, in the great scheme of the madman. Our lasting artifacts were just stepping stones in the madman journey to power.
.

Hey Human, sucks to be you eh?
