I think that HDS may have been the result of genetic manipulation on the part of Princes creation, as he looked to become more powerful than just a man, this could tie in nicely with a terrible future for mankind.

I don’t see any reason to believe Prince engineered His Divine Shadow. He was an Insect, a warrior or else a worker. I believe the Insects evolved intelligence and essence-transference naturally, then used genetic engineering and nanotechnology to improve themselves. The hosts were all human. I don’t think Prince figures into the equation at all.
*Squishy: I think a few people have mis-interpreted what I was trying to say.
I was suggesting that HDS shadow was the last of hundreds of reincarnations, and the only one to have insect essence, the previous reincarnations could have been Hitler and other tyrants…and they, essentially were the anti-christ in Earth’s history.
You could be right about the origins of the insects, but nobody can be sure, as there is not enough information to form an hypothesy.
Where Prince comes in, is that he may have been responsible for the first reincarnation of the Anti-christ, but then had no involvement with the Anti-christ’s future reincarnations.

HDS like Hitler obviously had a penchant for experimentation, it could mean that the insect wars were the results of experiments by the first HDS where he started turning men into insects, like himself.

I think it’s possible that His Shadow inadvertently began the Insect Wars (or the Great Insect War), I don’t see any indication of human-insect herrenvolk-type experiments. He would not’ve intentionally started the War, because the whole purpose of the Divine Order was to undo what the Insect Wars had done. After travelling back in time, he may have tried to prevent the final Insect War from occuring, but it happens anyway in spite of (or perhaps because of) his temporal meddling
Sorry, what temporal meddling are you referring to?, my theme on genetic manipulation was to offer a suggestion on how HDS may have come about,so you are completely correct in saying that genetics may not have been used, but I’ve yet to see any pertinent explanation for the insect essence taking the body of a human.
I don’t understand your reasoning on HDS attempting to stop the insect wars, it seemed that HDS wanted mankind wiped out during this time, but the insect he was failed.
Then he somehow entered the body of a human,
and went on to trick the human race into believing that he had the best intentions for them…the truth was he needed humans to become host bodies up until the time of the Gigashadow.
