Biographical information
Species:	Precursors

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

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 "HNW047622" was destroyed under unknown circumstances.

Later, "HNW047622" engaged in a discussion with another individual, identified as "RS6243199", who was of the Penitent faction within the Precursors' governing body, the Consensus. "RS6243199" 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; "HNW047622" responded that perhaps such suffering was meant to happen, as part of the Final Shape of the universe.

"HNW047622" subsequently became part of the Penitent, while "RS6243199" renounced the Consensus entirely and fled into deep space. In a final letter to their old friend, "HNW047622" 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. "HNW047622" beseeched their old friend to return and join the Penitent as they merged into the Witness.
