So hear me out…
(Might include some tiny spoilers for those who haven't played the storyline yet)
… what are the travelers really?
We are no Gek, Korvax or Vyr'ken, we can change shape almost freely.
We are almost immortal when exposed to space but get terribly hurt by falling on the surface of water.
We talk to the big entity like it's nothing but are hunted by its workers.
We return into existence after death.
My best guess: we are either a selfdefence mechanism of Atlas, fighting a reoccurring errors in its system, like… the density of water.
Or we actually are an extra space intelligence aside from the big three. Why else would we get hurt by water but not by falling through space? A good spacesuit would withstand both.
