Whomever that may be though, could be the sphere in a sense, or at least live in it in some disembodied form (like AI).

I think this is probably close. I'm kind of hoping that it's either an autonomous terraforming drone, or some kind of indigenous-species-uplift module. Something that its creators wound up and set loose in the universe to go puttering around and uplifting worthy species to a level at which they can fight back against the Darkness.
