  • Destiny 2's Lore in the Season of the Splicer might indicate that Quria, a Taken Vex Mind, is in control of the Vex Domain. If this is true, then the story of the season of the splicer might tell us that Savathun and Quria are responsible for the simulation causing the City's Endless Night!

    It's definitely Quaria - Blade Transform (Who incidentally is also knows as "The Dreaming Mind"), it would also explain why the Vex are suddenly attacking the Last City despite their fear of Paracausal forces, Savathun is controlling them and *forcing* them to attack despite their fear.

    Welp, you were worried about how this season would relate to the Witch Queen?

    EDIT 2: Okay, it was the Cryosthesia 77K lore tab, and the exact words are "Inside the portal, dark thread wrapped around her wrist."
    EDIT 3: Holy shit credit to Jeremy G. for pointing this out but the lore tab for The Deicide contains binary code apparently found in Vanguard systems that, when converted to text, shows a series of letters that are actually _music notes playing out Savathun's Song_ ! This is absolutely nutty!
    EDIT 4: Just to add to it all, the message is from Aunor who says that it might be a tone sequence, but she hasn't listened to it.

    I got a theory for what's to come:
    Savathun got inside the Vault of Glass during the Whisper of the Worm mission. She is definitely looking into using the time altering power of the Vex and the Simulation that was pushed on the City to expunge something or Someone (Maybe realting to the last season predictions where Zavala is always dead or missing) from it. I am very wary of where this story arc is going. I though Savathun only had a couple good tricks up her sleeve, but I didn't expect her to try to control the Vex's most advanced technology. She might even be aiming for the Traveler itself...

    • @voltus20
      @voltus20 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      She doesn't need to aim for the traveler, she just needs to keep doing what she's always done, grow doubt and distrust, so we end up fighting among ourselves and end up weakened for Xivu Arath to mow us down like they did with the cabal.
      If you think about it, everything this season is looking very similar to how Torobatl fell, Umun Arath got corrupted and mislead into summoning Xivu Arath to Torobatl and now Lakshmi-2 is starting to defy the vanguard, fight house light, and use the vex prediction machines to make something... what do you wanna bet she's gonna end up summoning Xivu too?, or worse...

  • @saber7534
    @saber7534 3 ปีที่แล้ว +69

    And so our fears have been released. The prediction engines? Likely tampered by Savathun. The song? Originated from Savathun. The Wrathborn? Xivu Arath's foul play. Destruction of the Cabal Empire? Xivu Arath once again. The Vex Subjugation? Likely Savathun's doing.

      @@angryrublixi Because they don't want us to go back and look. Based on the lore book for this season, at the end entry, a battle between the Vex and humanity occurs in the Last City. Why would Bungie not want us to go look back at something as significant as a Quria-looking Hydra if it did not somehow play into the grander-scale of the story? It acts like a teaser, one we're not supposed to look futher into until Bungie decides to give us more.
      UNLESS. This is Bungie playing Savathun, so we are all being tricked, with the lore and this Hydra, that it is Quria, and we are going to be led on a wild goose-chase to get Sav more power through deceit, and a completely different story line will be revealed.

      Even better, we kill Atheon normally, but when we do the raid in master difficulty, instead of ending there, a vex portal opens and leads us to a last city assaulted by vex and hive, where we fight Quria on the Botza district with the help of Mithraxx's splicer abilites to split the team into two groups, one surviving Quria with the Aegis and the other attacking the vex network to allow the other team to be able to damage Quria.
      By the end of the encounter, Quria destroys the Aegis at the cost of her protective shielding and we have final stand to get her low before she erases the entire district from existance, all ending in her retreating after sustaining enough damage, only to come back in witch queen.

    Hey Byf! You've probably already seen this but if you run the binary on The Deicide shotgun lore entry through a translator you get Savathun's viral chant. Considering the system invasions the tower is experiencing are coming from the vex and this is what it leaves behind she's 100% involved with the vex invasion. According to Aunor in the entry it's all over FWC's systems and elsewhere. Implies Lakshmi-2 is being manipulated by Savathun. Also pretty much confirms your theory for me.
