Just my own personal speculation but I think the orbs and the logs are part of the CE2 and maybe the CKI planet. Although it was mentioned that now that the robot menance has been quelled we need to watch out for the mutants and some advanced Umbranoids did appear out of these orbs not that long ago.
So in looking at just the mutants the Feffoids were involved with the egg and the Umbras and Argos are involved in some way with the orbs. Coincidence? maybe
Also with 90% of
MA's resources being devoted to CE2 conversion I think if we see any changes in the orb or egg it will be due to that change over in some way, even if its just to keep everyone wondering.
I am curious after LG if we will see new Orb developments that coincide with CE2.
