Echo-Origin Entities were extremely difficult to understand.
Civilizations quickly realized several facts about them:
They were not hostile.
They were not friendly.
They did not react for survival.
They did not communicate in a normal way.
They existed in a state before identity, before thought, before awareness.
Whenever explorers tried to interact with them, something strange happened:
Echo-Origin Entities reflected the explorers back at themselves.
For example:
A being who approached them with curiosity received amplified curiosity in return.
A being who approached with fear experienced stronger fear.
A being who approached with clarity became even more clear.
It was like they were mirrors that sent back the internal state of the observer.
Because of this, researchers named the phenomenon the Origin Mirror Effect.
The Order of Origin Mirrors
Many civilizations decided to work together to study these reflections.
