The Noesis appeared to primarily exist as disembodied consciousnesses within a "noosphere" made of "N webbing"; a record of the Noesis references "anchors" which "slumbered" as the Noesis' minds traveled the noosphere, perhaps referring to their physical bodies remaining in hibernation during these activities, similarly to the [[Neomuna|Neomuni]] being able to access the [[CloudArk]] while their bodies are in stasis.<ref name="XI-14-9D">'''[[Entelechy]]''', "[[Entelechy#Scribe Archive XI-14-9D|Scribe Archive XI-14-9D]]", ''14-18''</ref>

Prior to encountering the Witness, the Noesis had run afoul of an unknown entity or force, which they referred to as the "''whisper ∩ Nightmare ∩ predatory memeplex''".<ref name="XI-14-9D"/>
Prior to encountering the Witness, the Noesis had run afoul of an unknown entity or force, which they referred to as the ''whisper ∩ Nightmare ∩ predatory memeplex''; this description suggests that the entity may have been [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain]]<ref>'''[[Entelechy]]''', ''[[Entelechy#Scribe Archive XI-14-9D|Scribe Archive XI-14-9D]]''</ref>.


Upon first making contact with the Witness, the Noesis were overcome with joy and excitement, which quickly turned to fear and confusion as the Witness began [[Taken|Taking]] entire planets, dissecting structures and remaking the Noesis' minds and bodies. The last known survivor of the Witness' assault severed themself from the noosphere and recorded a final message using a long-range communications beacon, which was obtained an unknown (but presumably vast) length of time later by [[The Spider]].<ref name="XI-14-9D"/>

[[Eido]] would retrieve the message from the Spider's Collection in her research on the Witness and noted that the way the Witness interacted with the Noesis was different compared to other civilizations it had interacted with, such as the [[Fallen|Eliksni]] and [[Human]]ity, eventually learning that the Noesis had never been visited by the [[The Traveler|Traveler]].<ref name="XI-14-9D"/>
