The High Evolutionary is one of Ego's children.
So this theory is mostly conjecture but I do believe that the High Evolutionary is one of Ego's children. I got to thinking about this when he first met Peter he clearly singled him out. Likely due to Peter being the team leader but it felt like it was more than that. He seemed to be actively trying show off in front of Peter who isn't exactly a paragon of humans.
I also found it odd he knew so much about Peter. He doesn't seem like the type to care to learn about the key players in the galaxy unless it pertains to his work. Could have been due to Peter's affiliation with Rocket but even then, his focus was solely on Rocket.
My overall theory is he was once the "favorite" likely even had Mantis's job. Then he realized he'd never be perfect for Ego. Which could have been around the time Peter was conceived or even before that. My point is I imagine it was originally just him serving Ego, then he fell short of Ego's idea of perfection and was replaced by Mantis. Either he was kicked out or survived an attempt on his life. Then Mantis was brought in to be his replacement and was just never told about him.
It's possible he went to Earth seeking some kind of kinship but was disappointed by what he found. That's probably when he started his desire to perfect the universe.
