Editing Eden (section)

==Trivia==
*The name "Eden" is not used anywhere in Worm to refer to the Thinker. It was proposed by a fan in the comments and subsequently used by [[Wildbow]] as a character tag for the respective interlude.
*The image of a 'flesh garden', or mass of miscellaneous body parts, as in Eden's form at her death, occurs elsewhere in Worm, notably in [[Victoria Dallon|Glory Girl]]'s form after [[Amy Dallon|Amy]] forgets how to properly heal her. The resemblance between these forms has been confirmed not to be a coincidence.<ref>Funny how parallels appear. Almost as if Panacea had been recreating something from something she saw in a trigger event. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/10/24/speck-30-5/#comment-48316 Comment] from Wildbow</ref>
*Had Eden been the one who survived she would similarly be emotionally crushed and greatly depressed, though still smarter about her interventions than her mate.<ref name="E!E">Eden would be smarter about it, if still lost and indiscriminate. For her methodology, I'll refer you to this blurb:<br>
:Eden!Earth is broken up into xenophobic groups, any alliance with outside groups turns out disastrous. For the most part, ethnic groups and countries are independent, defending their own borders, but there's often further divisions within said group, with villains and/or civilians against totalitarian states, or some such. Major countries with high population are often divided further (as we see in the interlude). If people start forming alliances/peace and Eden sees it as too much trouble to sabotage, then she sics an Endbringer Lite on them, and then works with the remains.<br><br>
:Eden's tinkers aren't so limited in mass production and often outfit armies, which helps to spur things on. In key places, shards for cloning, plant and population growth, and resource production shards are deposited, to help crushed areas revive. Eden might liken it to pruning a tree - except she's pruning humanity to produce maximum conflict without utterly destroying it.<br><br>
:If Eden!Earth falls, she moves on to another, with a different tactic, or she sets things up for one earth to fight another - with seeds already planted here and there. - [https://redd.it/3ihyjg Scion vs Eden] ([[Wildbow]], Reddit.com, 2015-08-26)</ref>
