    I really like that Rasputin's first words when he boots up is "Go to Ana, she needs support". That in itself is already proof he's better than Clovis when it comes to people.

    As an 8 year Destiny veteran, this week's story felt amazing. Felwinter and Felspring, the revelation of Clovis' true intentions, Osiris' dialogue about training with the Iron Lords, Rasputin speaking English to us, and everything. Solid story telling this week. Makes we wonder what Clovis will do next now that Rasputin exposed him?

    I can't say that this revelation came as a surprise. It was more like a heavy, foreboding weight that had been waiting to drop and finally did.
    We've long known of Clovis' ambitions to be LUCA, his megalomania and his complete lack of scruples. We've also known that there was a command created to have Rasputin attack the Traveler. That was excused by the defense of it being merely a contingency, but there was definitely a destructive/malevolent edge to that command.
    We now know that the malevolence and destructive goals are Clovis' alone, and that Rasputin's character and goals are far removed from all that. Seeing a creation overpower one malevolent creator (Clovis) to stand alongside a much more positive leader (Ana) was more than satisfying.

      From what I can infer, Rasputin was always based on the complex neurological systems of a human mind. The SIDDHARTHA GOLEM protocol was designed to partition a section of himself to become human like, live among humanity. That’s how we got Felwinter. So he wasn’t simply AI or complex code. A unique case with Felwinter so I honestly dont expect this to happen again. Much like what happened to Shin Malphur: a unique case.

    I'm a little concerned with the possibility that Clovis is still somehow embedded in Rasputin's code, remember; there was a brief moment when they were both in the Exo frame.
    Totally assuming the worst case scenario on my part, but I really don't think Clovis just went off to Europa without leaving some piece of himself to keep tabs on us, even if we did force him out

      We didn't force him out, Rasputin straight up deleted the partition of Clovis that was uploaded on the exo frame.
      The partition is independent from the original Clovis A.I back on Europa, what it did as it was being deleted was sending a message back to Europa to let A.I Clovis know that they(we) found out about his plan and stopped him.

    I feel when Clovis dropped that decripted message. "They know" is a serious red flag for me. Could very well be possible he's been working with the witness at the start and was planning to assist on destroying the traveler. In Clovis mind he looks for all viable solutions and he CLEARLY has some deep sated jealousy over the traveler. So he wants what's best for humanity and that is embracing darkness

    I’m just finally glad we have a real chance at cracking a Pyramid after all this time. My biggest issue ever since the arrival of the Black Fleet was our lack of progress in fighting these things. If we can’t so much as destroy one, we can’t handle so much as an armada. We finally have a real stepping stone with the Warsats. If we can avoid a repeat of Rasputin’s first attempt, we have made meaningful progress in getting an edge over the Black Fleet and that’s just part of the battle.

    This week's story feels wild in a lot of ways, but most of all we got the thing that seemed like it was going to happen at the end before the midway point. Big expectation reset for the whole season.
    And boy does it obliterate the activating Rasputin as the trap from xivu thing seeing as, well, no portal with xivu walking through.
    To what extent does this mean we got a totally unexpected Felwinter resurrection? Because some of the things new Rasputin says feel a lot like a Felwinter resurrection.
    There is a huge piece here that both ties into some other topics that have been coming up, and suddenly is in play in a big way now. Abhorrent Imperative having not happened creates a giant question of "why didn't the traveler abandon the sol system and instead stand and fight this time?" That ties in with the eliksni alliance and politics and philosophy and awoken origins and aims and lucent hive everything and Elsie Bray timeloops in a huge way. It also points more questions at savathun and nezarec potentially.

    The story line for this season was light years better than I expected with it being the final season of the expansion
