Editing Entity (section)

===The First Cycle===
The first post-diaspora ancestor of the [[Warrior Entity]] landed on a small planet with caustic acid rain, covered with plant life. It inhabited one of the plants, nourishing it and protecting it, and across the span of many revolutions it multiplied and seeded other plants with its shards. During this period it conceived an early idea of the [[The Cycle|cycle]], in which it would test the host species through conflict. Eventually, the entity began spreading to versions of the planet in other realities, and in the process encountered another entity, which had also arrived on the planet and chosen a similar method of parasitism. The two exchanged information in the realities where they met, sharing knowledge, and eventually came to the conclusion that they needed to move on.

Preparing to leave, the two absorbed their host species for energy and took back the shards they had dispersed among them, forming once again into two entities as they funneled energy into a singular reality to detonate the planet. However, while waiting for the detonation, the second entity suggested that they exchange information by carefully attacking each other, colliding with friction that joined their shards into combinations, creating variation. After experimenting like that as well for some time, they came together into one, configured into a shell, and detonated the planet, sending out countless fragments of themselves to other worlds.
