I agree with the origins. I would like to propose a slightly different theory, or more add on. The jovians I think left earth and lived out on Saturn and Jupiter. When Bob came along the darkness swept over everything. The traveler pushed away bob for a short time while weakening itself. This rapid change from light to dark aggressively effected the Jovians. The awoken fled to the reef. There they were trapped between light and dark. They feared to go further but could not turn back. So they lived in the reef. The Darkness was on the edge of the reef and leaked in some places. This border of light and Darkness caused the change in the awoken. Over a period of time they became different. After they changed awoken came back to earth and were reborn in light. I do wonder, If these races can be born into light, who else can?
