    I couldn’t help but giggle at Savathun’s “No more than yours.” line to Mara. She just sounds so calm and playful, because she knows she’s got a trick under her sleeve. Debra Wilson is the real MVP, can’t wait for her to go off in Witch Queen.

      That's the brilliance of her performance as Savathun. Her sheer ordinariness. Nothing in her voice, tone or demeanor gives you ANY clue to the depth of her evil or her boundless ability to use people and discard them without a shred of remorse. The perfect psychopath. A true silver-tongued devil.

      That's interesting. She's still a liar at heart, but I wonder if that little truth among the lies was an act of... rebellion, I suppose? She seems to have a lot of fun telling the truth - hinting at her game, while still concealing the bigger trick. She did fulfil every part of the bargain - Osiris freed for a worm removed - she just still outsmarted Mara in how it would play out (seriously, how did Mara not expect that though.)
      Such an interesting antagonist, I really wonder where she'll end up after WQ - I kinda hope she doesn't just die, she's a great character. Not a hero by any means, and I don't think she'll ever be trustworthy, but not exactly just a villain either - a separate player with separate goals. Like a mirror of Caiatl - both technically on "our side" against the darkness, albeit with their own separate goals and desires, but they go about it differently - one is very direct, the other schemes.

    • @amvmasterofdark
      @amvmasterofdark 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not quite, she still deceived us even tho she was able to keep her word.
      Her word was that if we took her work out she would return Osiris, it was never stated that she would remain in the vicinity immediately after the removal which is want mara wanted, so she could kill savathin while she is wormless ad weak. However savathin returned Osiris by switch places with him because she knew Mara wanted to kill her afterwords, so the deception is housed in the way she returned Osiris. Also, this implicates that savathin knows what capabilities maras powers have, seeing as how she knew Mara was able to freeze her in a "cocoon" or what ever you want to call it, and had in fact placed the rune she used to switch places with Osiris all the way before the beginning of season of the hunt.

      I am also very interested in the fact that Xivu Arath has been amassing an army because while there wasn’t necessarily an overwhelming number of threats in the final room of the mission it was a very high density for the size of it. And with kelgorath, the scorn and the taken ogre returning repeatedly to annoy us it sounds like they are just slowly amassing an army without losing anyone at all due to whatever form of resurrection they are using.
      I know it said kill kelgorath one final time but honestly I don’t think that’s the last we saw of him rather with it meaning to kill him so we can finally end savathun (which we didnt)
      If Xivu Arath gets too many forces this way it won’t matter how good we are, we won’t be able to defend the city from an endless army and help the people, thus losing the war really.

      The thing with that is old habbits die hard. Just because she kept to her word once doesn't mean much. Especially when it was a means to an end. She knows that everyone in the system wants her dead and her cunning is her best resource to keep her alive. She's good at it. Probably better than anyone else. Not to mention the worms chose deception and cunning for her because it was *already* her nature before they bound her to it. It's unlikely she's going to turn over a new leaf just because she can when she knows it won't help her.

      I agree to take the queen of lies at her word for one instance isnt amazing, but it kind of is because her whole thing is deception. But since that's the case, wouldn't her telling the truth kind of be impossible for her to do? She wanted to show Crow the truth so he could come to terms with his old self, and he did. She said she would return Osiris alive for the exorcising of her worm. That's two ways she easily could have decieved us, but she kept her word and essentially gave us the best outcome. Crow could have resented everything but he seems to have adjusted well to his truth, and Osiris is alive. Not saying it's for sure, but it definitely raises some questions to me

An alliance of convenience and nothing more. The situation with Lahksmi-2 might have been solved peacefully if not for her whispering into that maniacs ear. Cayde’s death can ultimately be laid at her feet as well. And we see in all of these new bits of lore that she has something massive that will be a threat to everyone who isn’t her up her sleeve no she will not be our ally she is our greatest prey yet and this hunt will be glorious and it will be our most difficult yet as well.

    My theories:
    1) She doesn’t steal the light. It’s given to her. Savathun’s needed to die which is why she said thank you after the exorcism. That enabled her to be brought back with light.
    2) The dreaming city curse and cycle from her Riven wish which allowed her to have an Ascendant Realm not tied directly to a Worm.
    3) This allows Savathun to be brought back to life with the Traveler’s Light but her Darkness powers are still active due to the curse/wish that’s been growing in power for years.

    Savathûn gains power from deceiving and misleading others. At this point everyone expected her to renege on her word and either kill or keep Osiris. Her returning him was the most unexpected outcome, and so by keeping her promise, she mislead us with truth.

    • @mobiuscoreindustries
      @mobiuscoreindustries 2 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      My guess is that it is a delaying tactic. A brilliant one at that. Once she escaped, the Darkness would stop their pursuit and refocus. This would mean that, for at least a little bit, the entire vanguard would have their sight on her fair and square, and many reasons to go after her immediately, perhaps before she can inact the next part of her plan.
      So she left us something we could not ignore. With Osiris being alive, but unconscious, saint would tie himself up with his recovery. Mara would be too busy investigating the worm to really care. Essentially, she took the road and left a landmine in the way. She very much know that leaving Osiris alive means that he could be an asset against her (if he isn't mind controlled or something) but she is aiming for a far grander goal.
      Also, she loves to play in relativism. She leaves conflicting information all over the place to make sure the truth is as hard to figure as possible. As her trickster self, her single best contingency is to try and get our guardian to view her as both an enemy and an asset, therby paralyzing the very back and white judgement guardians ususally employ..

    With her worm removed savathun no longer needs to be cunning and lying to everyone to sustain it lest it consume her. I believe this is why she kept her word with returning osiris and though she may still have ulterior motives I feel the raid on the pyramid ship in witch queen is her helping us to prepare to fight the darkness, from which she would also benefit as its probably not too keen on the removal of her worm through which she was tied to it.

    There's one thing that bothered me as soon as I've done the mission on reset.
    Check Mara's expression at 16:05, when she talks about the worm. She looks downright diabolical, like her first(or whichever one) step of some grand plan has just succeeded. Was that just animation slip-up? I don't really think so.
    TBF, as this season went on and on, I started trusting Savathun more than I trust Mara.
    Is it far fetched to think that her intention was to get the Worm all along and she made us think she was going to kill Savathun?
    Perhaps she wanted to, but reinforced this as a prime motive to get us on board. Even the now memed scene where she pulls a knife out after shattering the crystal that seems stupid, could be just theathrics.
    Now, I know we see the Worm in the trailer, on Zavala's desk, but that's it.
    Maybe the Witch "Queen" is Mara after all, not our friendly neighborhood Savathun.(OK, this is just a joke).

    • @Prestige_00

      Yeah her facial expression did make me blink a few times to make sure I was seeing it right. I wonder if she does have ulterior motives.

    • @elitegamer9310
      @elitegamer9310 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I had the same thought. I think that Mara understood that Savathûn would most likely escape, but she did so anyways because she would at least get Savathûn's Worm. Which should know a lot about her schemes, such as how the Curse on the Dreaming City can be broken. If she could kill Savathûn, that would've been a bonus, but the Worm was the end goal all along.

    A few things I had in mind:
    A. The Vex definitely have a few hundred years or so to think about when it comes to Saint's devotion to friends, as well.
    B. what better way for Savathun to trick us than the Queen of Lies do nothing but tell the truth entirely? When she does nothing but lie, doing nothing but keep her word is, in a way, a huge lie as well.
    C. Until I heard the recording and spoke with Mara (due to the bugs and what-not), I believed that she was never actually in the crystal itself and it was solely Osiris in there, and the entire season and our efforts in it was solely to distract us from her stealing the Light and perfecting her warping of it to her own forces. And with the worms, it's clear they can't survive without a host, and typical of Ghosts and their Guardians, one has to be dead to become a Guardian and wield the Light. So what better way to make all of her plans work than to die, wait until her worm dies without her, and then come back with her Ghost, solving both of her problems at once? Honestly, considering the B point, I wouldn't have minded either outcome being a thing because they both work considering Savathun and what she does.

She wants to fight the same darkness we wish to fight. She is obviously worthy in the eyes of the light if she gains it.
