Lore
Siege of the Atlas
The Searing Exarch serves the Cleansing Fire. It served as one of the Pinnacle bosses of the Atlas of Worlds during the Siege of the Atlas.
Despite originating outside of Wraeclast, the Searing Exarch prominently display a symbol very similar to the Descry, a symbol associated with Innocence. The various unique item flavor texts from the Searing Exarch and the Forbidden Sanctum suggests it is the true origin of the symbol; a group known as the Newcomers worshipped the symbol out of fear, but Innocence manipulated them into worshipping him as their savior and adopted the symbol for himself to gather his first followers.
