An energetic distortion always results in the opposite, i.e. distorted energy, distorted perception, distorted awareness, distorted attitudes and behaviour.
Something happened that caused the distortion.
The distortion became a perception and awareness because everything is aware in some form.
The distortion became aware of itself.
The distortion - by its nature - saw itself and everything it surveyed from a twisted, flawed and misguided view of reality.
The distortion believed that it alone existed, for the distortion prevented connection with - and awareness of - higher and more expansive states of consciousness.
"and slowly and surely, they drew their plans against us."
