This is true. But there's no indiciation that this has anything to do with the Planet Eaters. In fact the Spathi seem to be convinced the Planet Eaters are nothing but an Umgah hoax. And what the Spathi don't fear, doesn't exist.

This is one of the hints... my dad picked up on this a long time ago

On your first contact with the arilou they say that they modified earths history to make us invisible to the creatures... and that if we showed ourselves they would surely come for us... the androsynth showed themselves, and there are no more androsynth.

God I love this game



There's a very long and extensive thread, from say a year ago, concerning just this topic - on the entity that the Orz represent, which is directly related to the Arilou/Orz/Androsynth story.

It's very interesting and we've discussed many interesting views there, I suggest you read it and it might shed some light for you.

This is the main, original thread:
Arilou and the Orz: What's the Deal? *spoilers*

And these two are two new ones which I haven't read entirely, but they seem to rediscuss the same things, or most of them at least (damnit people, do a search Tongue)

The Orz, the Arilou and perhaps a New Idea
'They' cannot see you now

Enjoy

The Grand Master Planet Eaters were confirmed to be a hoax.

The Orz ate all the Androsynth *on* the planet, after all, but the planet was still there for you to land on, wasn't it? Smiley

The Androsynth were "snatched" into another dimension, by some entity, probably related to the Orz. All the clues in the game point to the Orz or some kind of entity they represent or are messangers of, but we don't know for sure.

That's what makes them so creepy!
