History[edit]
Iterators are ancient machines, no one knows who their creators were, and why they created them, it is only known that they call them the ancients, and they gave them their glorious purpose. A purpose that most forgot or abandoned in search of a new one. Most of those who continued with their main objective fell into madness, and in isolation from the rest of the world, only a few could understand that, locked in their laboratories, they could not continue with it. Once an Iterator is old enough it gains an Overseer, which can act as scouts for the Iterator.
