Theory on the PO, Samsaras and Fate in Tyvet?

SpoilerDiscussion (includes analysis)

I think the Primordial One is the AI described in the KFC wings (the one that recorded every moment of civilisation). I think they implanted those memories into the ley lines/irminsul just like how the abyss twin is planning to use the ley lines and the loom of fate to bring back Khanriah (as mentioned in the natlan interlude quest). To me the plan shows that such a thing might be possible, hence the PO might’ve done the same but on a larger scale by bringing back a planet.

I think the samsaras exist because of the fact that these are the memories of a civilisation and the civilisation cannot exist outside of the duration of those memories. Hence why everything loops. I think the recent Archon quests in 6.3 show this in a way as the ley lines projections couldn’t act outside of their predetermined? actions without someone outside of those ley lines interfering.

And the fact that an external intervention (in the case of the AQ Durin) could change the outcome of something predetermined and from the past makes me wonder if this is the role the descenders serve. Maybe the descenders can change the fate of the memories in tyvet just like how Durn changed the outcome of those ley lines projections, in which case I suppose you could even argue that the voyager was a descender who changed the fate of the first seelie and broke their shackles, leading to the fight with celestia. Maybe Durin changing the past and those ley lines is a foreshadowing of how the traveller might break tyvet out of its “shell” and firmament by freeing the people from the confines of their predetermined fates and time-loop.

Let me know what you think, and I’m sorry if this is confusing. it was hastily written
