The Entity Is A Host Body

Alright, so I've been thinking, of what the Entity is, and I can't help but see it's similarities with multi cell organisms. So let me break it down for you, the human body is a multi cell organism that whenever all the cells in the body work together it spreads nutrients, and keeps it living - capable of doing the things we do each day.

Well let's look at what if the Entity is actually just a host body. Diving right into bacteria; Bacteria are microscopic, single-celled organisms that can exist in almost any environment, they can enter the human body and even if they are not there to cause any kind of trouble - the body reacts by trying to eliminate them at any cost. Going as far as shutting down important functions of the body to put more resources/energy to defeating foreign bacteria.

So what if the Survivors are actually just foreign bacteria to the entity and have entered it's body by total accident. Like when you eat the pizza from yesterday, all the foreign bacteria that built up on that pizza you just accidentally put in your body.

What if the entity purposely takes in survivors because it's main resource for energy/food is feeding off the hope and emotions of smaller organisms.

Then the Killers are it's white blood cells. Being produced by the Entity to target survivors in different parts of it's body. Then the bacteria (survivors) attempt to escape, or fight against the white blood cell that's trying to defeat it.

The blood web is actually your organisms evolutionary tree. You level white blood cells evolve over time learning to better counter evolving foreign bodies. You level bacteria to survive longer in trials, as your move across the host body's different parts (realms).

The Hatch is moving through a cellular wall that the bacteria has evolved to do. The campfire is probably near it's heart / lungs where bacteria can reproduce rapidly.

You can enter the same realms all as the same survivors, because the characters are actually bacteria that are proliferating from different evolutionary states.

End Game Collapse is just the body starting to take a fever, get sick, as a response to trying to eliminate foreign bacteria.

The tips on bacteria are called Key's, used to find openings to travel through cellular walls to get to other parts of the body, or cause infection. Keys are used to open the hatch to return to the campfire.

    Wow..that’s actually pretty good. Scary too as I ate pizza yesterday and you gave an example on that 😳

    This is a good analogy. I actually wrote a theory analyzing auric cells. If you take a close look at the cells, you can see they're actually undergoing nuclear fusion and surrounded by some sort of black matter membrane. So, based on this, I infer that the entity creates energy by fusing souls together, as nuclear fusion releases a ton of energy. I'm pretty sure The Entity purposefully drags in survivors because it needs energy, but I can see Vigo/Benedict using an analogy like this to better understand how The Entity works. But your theory makes sense. The Entity is a huge and godly being, so it wouldn't be odd if it accidentally dragged people inside of itself as it expanded, and because of this problem, it brings in the killers.
