[Xenos]Origins of the Tyranids

[The_Glyphstone]

Is this in any way relevant or important to the ASP as a whole? I was reading something earlier, can't remember what, and I remembered that I've never seen any real fluff, official or otherwise, about where the Tyranids came from besides 'another galaxy'. Has GW ever said anything about Tyranidland?

I personally, think it'd be an interesting twist, if even more excessively GRIMDARK, if it turned out the Tyranids weren't invading for food sources, but instead fleeing from something even bigger and meaner than them. and just eating everything in their path out of reflex...?

GW only mentioned they're from another galaxy, not that much more if I remember correctly. And while we like to explain many things of the 40k universe, some stuff remains a mystery like the missing Primarchs and all that. However, we could always speculate here!

Look at Migsula's T.W.A.R. for example, they are a tyranid hunting robotic race.
