Source
⚠️ CAUTION! major spoilers ahead! ⚠️
Source is the Occupant who made contact with Iris on the night of the dance, 2047 CE. They learned to communicate with Iris, and later gifted her with Familiars as a way to continue their communions and provide fresh memories. A thousand years later, they were the last remaining Occupant on Earth.
Having branched themself to create Familiars, this Occupant is referred the "Source" from which Secretary originated.

History[edit | edit source]
Source was created (or "branched") at an unknown point in time within deep space. The only memory they had, was of the binary star system presumed to be the Occupant's home-system. Eventually, they, along with the other Occupants, drifted towards Earth where they discovered the complex and vibrant life inhabiting this planet.
On the night of the school dance in 2047 CE, Source was drawn to the intense emotions being felt by Jiao, who was running from Iris. Source was drawn to Iris' unique talent for provoking intense emotions, and possibly "chose" Iris to remain, as a vector for causing a "heightened state of awareness". This granted Iris immortality and immunity to the Occupant's Disease. Source was able to learn how to communicate with humans, by exploring Iris' memories, then repeating them in a re-contextualized manner to her.
Source passively observed Iris for at least thirty years before making an offer to her – she can have access to their power, in exchange for [CONFIRM QUOTE]. Then, Source branched themself to create three new Familiars, and enacted Iris's plea to kill the remaining inhabitants of the Pacific 50.
After Iris' covenant with Source, she spent the next year burying all the 50 that she could find.
- cloned herself
- came to know the occupants as how source refers to them – "the keepers"
Her responsibility was to regularly commune with them. When Iris was late to a communion due to her sleepwalking, the Keepers punished her by attacking the Ancient Sisters.

In 7AA, Secretary and Blue initiate a mass communion with the other two Familiars. In the mass communion, Source gets to meet Secretary again, and proposes that Secretary reintegrate with them.
SOURCE: You will be just me. You always were.
However, the Source was tricked by Secretary, who overwrote Source's "data" by recursively flooding it with the moment Watcher killed Iris.
In their last moments, Source clung to the memory of Iris before they were deleted. This essentially resulted in Source's death.
