[quote]I think the gardener and widower are personifications of the light and the dark but aren’t actual beings in the universe. The witness is not the darkness just has a level of mastery over it. Same could be said of the traveler who is just a medium for the light to act.[/quote] Absolutely true, the flower game (the metaphor for the game the Light/Dark played) has the darkness being upset the Light wanted to interfere with the universe and tried stopping it from doing so which lead to fighting which lead to the Universe being created. There are massive similarities between that and what the witness wants, as the Traveler is interfering with life and has been for as long as life has existed (even terraforming worlds when no life was nearby as it was terraforming the Solar System before humanity found it)
