HNW047622 is the identifier code for a member of the ancient race that would become the 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[edit]

According to records retrieved from the databanks of the Ketch Wintership Simiks-Fel and translated by Eido, this individual traveled to the star system 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". At some later point, the garden world terraformed by HNW was destroyed under unknown circumstances.

Later, HNW engaged in a 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, in order to prevent them from experience 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.

Apparently 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 Nihilists and Solipsists, 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.
