'''HNW047622''' is the identifier code for a member of the [[Precursors (Species)|ancient race]] that would become the [[The Witness|Witness]].
'''HNW047622''' is the identifier code for a member of the [[Precursors (Species)|ancient race]] that would become the [[The Witness|Witness]]. According to ancient messages decoded by Eido, this individual sought to terraform a barren planet into a garden world, apparently with the aid of the "Gardener's tools," being the Light of the Traveler.

==Biography==
According to records retrieved from the databanks of the Ketch [[Wintership Simiks-Fel]] and translated by Eido, this individual traveled to the star system [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HD_219134 HD 219134] in a tetrahedral ship, similar but not identical to the [[Pyramids]] of the [[Black Fleet]] that would later be used by the Witness. They brought with them seeds and various reagents to be used for terraforming a barren planet in the system, as well as a device called a Pergola which they would use for "weaving the planet's atmosphere".<ref>'''[[Entelechy]]''', ''[[Entelechy#Scribe Archive XI-2-4A|1-2]]''</ref>  At some later point, the garden world terraformed by HNW was destroyed under unknown circumstances.<ref name="6-11"/>

At some later point, the garden world terraformed by HNW was destroyed under unknown circumstances.


Later, HNW engaged in discussion with another individual, identified as [[RS6243199]], who was of the [[Penitent]] faction within the Precursors' governing body, the Consensus. RS6 insisted that it was necessary to intervene in the affairs of a less-advanced contemporary species, even without consent, to prevent them from experiencing future suffering; HNW responded that perhaps such suffering was meant to happen, as part of the [[Final Shape]] of the universe. Seemingly embittered by the destruction of their garden, HNW went on to criticize the Traveler for its inaction, unable to reconcile its seeming omnipotence with the suffering it allowed to happen all around it, and wondered whether the Final Shape could be a universe where evil and suffering did not exist because they were not permitted to do so.<ref name="6-11">'''[[Entelechy]]''', ''[[Entelechy#Scribe Archive XI-9-2C|6-11]]''</ref>

Having been radicalized by their experiences, HNW subsequently became part of the Penitent, while RS6 renounced the Consensus entirely and fled into deep space. In a final letter to their old friend, HNW stated that the Penitent had destroyed their rival factions, the [[Nihilist]]s and [[Solipsist]]s, and that they had personally taken part in the killing of "subversives and defectors" within their ranks. HNW beseeched their old friend to return and join the Penitent as they merged into the Witness. Although RS had seemingly cut most communication with HNW by this time, HNW hoped that RS would see their message, and confessed that they reached out to RS not to convince them to return, but out of respect for their compassion, selfishly admitting that they didn't want to forget RS once they merged.<ref>'''[[Entelechy]]''', ''[[Entelechy#Scribe Archive XI-23-1C|32-33]]''</ref>
