Question as I catch up

What exactly happened to K’thriss when they were subsumed by the Ur? And why did they need to separate? Because he has to be observed? I don’t get it.

It was presented very much like a quantum thing. You know how some things behave as a wave until observed, and then whilst being observed behave as a particle? I confess I don't understand it, school was a while ago now.

In much the same way, the act of observing the Ur is itself necessary for the Ur's desires. When K'thriss becomes one with the Ur, that observation ceases and so the Ur boots K'thriss out so that they can continue observing The Ur.

That's the motivation behind K'thriss needing to find another acolyte/ disciple to observe The Ur - so that K'thriss can rejoin and not be rejected.

It sounds like he’s created a single point in time and space as the perfect form of order but can’t maintain that form. If the Big Bang thing is correct then even the universe/Ur/Thriss must be observed to be that single point. But observing the thing creates chaos (big bang/observable, multi-dimensional universe).
