  • Toland, The Shattered is a very intriguing character. He was once a Guardian, but upon death was transformed into a magic ball of energy that traverses the ascendant plane in search of secrets about the Hive, Darkness and beyond. Today we discuss the whereabouts of Toland and some of the mysterious messages he’s relayed over the years.

    Toland turned the Sea of Screams into his own personal throne world. Toland would make a great consort to Xivu Arath for his adherence to the Sword Logic.

      Toland is impressive, but he doesn't have a proper throne world. he's got the equivalent of a sandbar in the ascendant plane he used to barely evade death.

    Toland really should make a return either during Final Shape or Episode Heresy. His absence lately strikes me as a very odd choice considering how important The Witness is to Hive related lore.

    "you will fear nothing, and nothing will not fear you" is such a good line
    It has a double meaning, you're fearless, and everything will fear you
    but it also means that you, will be afraid, of "nothing"
    and "nothing" will not be afraid of you.

    Toland is one of the few Guardians that are still something of a mystery to us. A faceless sometime corroborator, with seemingly the deepest understanding of the physics of this world. So much so that it crosses the border between physical and the metaphysical, ascending beyond the throne worlds to the interstice between, the Void, the Sea of Screams.

    Bad Juju should be made into a weapon of sorrow as well. Just makes sense if it could convert the Poison to super energy, also its the only such Pulse Rifle.
    We already have the Auto, Hand Cannon, Scout, SMG, GL.

  • @EYErisGames

    I still wonder about one thing: How is the original idea of Darkness and its potential to "corrupt" and to "take" related to Stasis, Strand, the Veil, and everything else we now know about the Darkness?
    Consider weapons of sorrow, and/or other "corrupted" weapons, like Thorn, Bad Juju, Touch of Malice, Malfeasance, Necrochasm, Whisper of the Worm, etcetera. Knowing what we now know about the Darkness, its relationship with the Light, Darkness abilities (such as Stasis, Strand, the ability to Take, and the abilities of the Witness and their Disciples), and other kinds of "corruption" (Taken blight, Corrupted Ether, Egregore), what is the actual source of this "corruption"?
    In other words, if Darkness is just another force we can wield and manipulate, like the Light, why/how are these weapons being "corrupted" or, more speculatively, does the Light have the ability to "corrupt" as well as to "cleanse" (we know that Darkness has the ability to "cleanse" from the Nez-cafe)?
    Also, are these various kinds of "corruption", in any way related to Stasis or Strand?

    Toland is speaking about the sword logic and the final shape just as the Winnower did. The Witness is not the Winnower and here with Toland we can see that there are differences.

    Does that quote from toland about the last shape not seem like he's saying the final shape needs no preacher "the witness" it will just be, like the destiny of this all is to just reach the final shape? Seems kinda doomsday to me. Like we are all just playing to the final shape? Thoughts?

    Toland said that “Last True Shape” line to me during the ascendant challenge just a day or two ago and I wondered whether that might be another way of referring to “The Final Shape” or perhaps something else. Hmm… 🤔

    Tolland is a fool who met his demise playing around with things he was a fanboy of, but was completely ignorant about. Most of what he says now or has said recently has been lies or nonsense to throw us off. He's insanely jealous of the guardian not just for not taking oryx's throne.

    Is it just me but if you look at the Gardener and Winnower card logo/illustration, doesn't it resemble our solar system? It has each planet even Pluto (dwarf) with Mars being the one that's interconnected... Could this show how the obstacles between the traveler and the witness? Maybe since Mars is the first planet where they encountered the traveler, it could be it's origin? I don't know what point I am trying to prove so maybe just look at this like a coincidence. If you already knew this, well kudos to you :)

    @suruxstrawde8322 2 місяці тому

    Sword logic is inefficient, rational only in that it's a practical to have the most rounded and capable individual as a leader. But holding it as an absolute requirement in every circumstance is itself not seeing pure efficiency, the true strongest would be the most adaptable, not merely the most violently capable.
    Savathûn proves and operates by this, she exists through adaptability instead of pure strength. Even after death, many even at this point, she persists and lords over her own. To change shape in order to pass great filters, that is the highest strength.

  • @VostrumRexouium
    @VostrumRexouium 2 місяці тому

    if the final shape needs no preachers or followers, than what if we as in the guardians literally kill all opposing forces as we have been doing for a good while with great succes now...wouldnt that mean we're just playing right into what that exactly is? one ruthless force that has overcome, adapted and killed all others to ensure survival.

    Doesnt really fit into this topic but what if the vanguard would send every guardian to one extremely important mission. Of course it wouldn’t make any sense from the gameplay perspective but take raids for example: Rhulk and necarec (still don’t know how to spell him) are 2 very powerful beings that would have been able to change everything so why do they only send 6 instead of I dunno 2k guardians?
