I don't think The Witness really wants to kill us
When it obtains the Final Shape, our elimination may be a result of whatever plans it has, but overall, I don't think it actively wants to kill us.
Think about it:
It reduced us to what we are/what we have during our Golden Age.
It only actually attacked those who tried to attack it. (RIP OG Guardians)
It had/has an entire fleet of Pyramid ships and who knows what was/is lying in wait inside them.
A mass army of Hive (Including Xivu Arath), Scorn and Taken under it's command.
Not to mention the fact it could kill 3 Guardians, their Ghosts and their ships with a flick of it's wrist.
And who knows what other tricks The Witness has up it's sleeve.
If The Witness TRULY wanted to destroy us, it could do it.
Those are my thoughts anyway.
What are yours?

We are on the side of light and we are our own heros, and in our opinion the Witness is evil he is attacking the traveler and caused the collapes From his perspective, he is doing what the Sword Logic does, its killing the weak before they have a chance to suffer. The collapse was good in his view of the Universe while death is bad for us the Darkness isn’t concerned with Life. And us trying to stop him makes us the Villain in his eyes Its all a matter of perspective, imo i dont think he cares about us living or dying other than the weak. I believe he’s simply trying to remove the traveler and lights influence in the Universe. While he isn’t the Winnower, the Winnower fought with the Gardener because the Gardener wanted to interfere in the Flower game (a simulated universe) and have a different shape appear (this can make us think the final shape is something that can only happen if the light is gone and is always inevitable like entropy or death), so it would make sense if he made it his own quest to stop the Light from interfering with the Universe.

Why would it care? It WON. Nothing anyone did changed the outcome. The war, millennia old was won. And nothing we did, mattered. Yay.

The dude said ‘no more life, no more death’ Pretty sure that isn’t good news for anyone living. That he thinks you aren’t important enough to kill himself doesn’t mean he doesn’t want us dead. Just means he is smart. Goes straight for the source of our power instead of duking it out with us.

Well not not yet… but if someone says turn the witness into a gun who are we to say nooo 🫡

4 RepliesThere’s also the fact the Shadow Legion have killed virtually nobody. They take human and eliksni prisoners and don’t kill them, and when they invaded Neomuna all citizens went inside the CloudArk so they didn’t kill anyone. Rohan sacrificed himself. They only attack those who attack them, which is the Guardians and Caiatl’s forces. And as for Amanda, it doesn’t seem she was the primary target, the trap was meant for us and Mithrax and she ended up being an accidental loss.
