Is the Witness alone agent or working for a Greater Evil character we as guardians haven't seen yet?

The Witness is the winnower, a paracausal being as ultimate as the traveler, aka the gardener. They entered the game to spread their ideals and see which one was right. Unknowingly, they created a third god, which is the guardian( yes, that is our canon name) and we can harness the power of light and dark. They created a being more powerful than themselves. But to answer your question, the winnower is the one from the cutscene because the winnower is formless, and that entity was darkness incarnate and personified. I believe that, and though I may be wrong, the guy from the cutscene spoke to the traveler in a way that made me believe it was the one behind it all. Plus ikora and other characters speak about the witness like it has control of the darkness.
