- Destiny 2's Lore and Story from the season of the Witch has raised the stakes. Eris Morn's transformation into a Hive god involved invoking the names of several worm gods, including Ahsa's sisters. Ahsa willingly bound herself to Eris's ritual and has been taking on the burden of Eris's pain from the rituals. Her immense suffering has raised the stakes of failure, should the ritual go wrong.

I like that Sloane and Ahsa are part of this season’s story, I’m glad these last two seasons feel a bit more connected
Yeah that was a cool surprise to see and knowing what we know now the story is getting interesting
I do too it keeps the story fresh and engaging and makes everything connect like how witchqueen and the 1st season were connected together perfectly
the whole season and especially ghosts of the deep sets up many clues to this seasons plot
Fr fr
Honestly even with all the salty hate I'm totally loving this Expansions story as it's evolving through out the seasons.
A lot of people EXPECTED Lightfall to be a Witness/Veil story arc where rather it was a Calus going Dark Story Arc... honestly even IF we had the info on the veil and witness in the campaign it would have been way out of place as that knowledge wouldn't have helped with The Guardians fighting to stop Calus' rise to power and remove him as an extension of the witnesses army.
Idk I'm enjoying how everything has been unfolding, all tied and wrapped up with each other in some way as things move forward.
It’s a small thing but I appreciate them continuing Ahsa’s story, really shows she has more stake in the story, rather than it just being, “oh, Ahsa told us we need to revive the Witch Queen and now we never need to speak to her again.” Like we’ve seen a bit with previous seasons
Meanwhile, Failsafe remains forgotten. Still want a Season that takes place on Nessus and have her be a character in it. Don't even think she has appeared in the lore either recently.
@@Techhunter_Talon I think the last time Failsafe had any lore mention at all was Season of Arrivals.
I agree this mode of storytelling is very very good I was surprised but at the end I was impressed and satisfied with this
@@Techhunter_Talonfestival of the lost she's mentioned an helping glint reaserch the headless ones
@Techhunter_Talon I feel like one of the Vex centered Episodes post TFS could bring us back to Nessus with Failsafe
The lore book actually tells us Ahsa's thoughts in the moments of Eris's ascension and how invoking the names of the proto-worms and worm gods dragged Ahsa into it, but above all it tells us that she took part in the ritual willingly and that deep down she felt some sort of responsibility to see the safeguarding of this universe through even if it meant her death.
It might not even be a sense of responsibility. It might simply be that participating is of more benefit to her and her goals than NOT participating. All choices have consequences.
It seemed like she was going for redemption of her species by working with Eris who's true purpose for the ritual was self sacrifice to gain power in order to save the cosmos.
I missed it the first time around, but Asha straight steps into Sloane when she's being spoken for like "nah, I will not be spoken for..."
Sloane: "no, ahsa can't speak, she's too ex-"
Ahsa, taking over: "I don't remember asking you"
Yeah she was like "I speak through you, you don't speak *for* me."
I believe Ahsa is going to be a major reason why Eris resists corruption and resists becoming evil.
I also wonder if light will be involved in some way since the lucent brood do use it in rituals.
Eris isn't being corrupted because Eris isn't doing it for selfish or personal gain. She fully understood that she would be risking her own life, knowing that we are by her side and will put her down should she be consumed by the deep.
That's basically the only reason Ahsa voluntarily entered into the ritual with Eris. Ahsa sensed that Eris was willing to die to save the universe, there was a feeling of true benevolence coming from Eris as she was doing the ritual that Ahsa picked up on.
Essentially, Ahsa voluntarily became Eris' tribute storage because she knew Eris' intentions were just, benevolently selfless and desired the change to be temporary.
Ahsa wouldn't have agreed if Eris was so easily corrupted. That said, Eris stating that the Tithes feel like hope likely comes from Ahsa herself.
So in that sense, yes Ahsa is helping Eris resist potential corruption.
Of couse the fact Ahsa is the storage medium for the Tithes helps too, though it may be more accurate to say that we are only able to rapidly accumulate so many Tithes because they are being stored in Ahsa.
It's more likely the Ritual or the rapid influx of Tithes would have killed Eris long before she fell to corruption.
no one thinks about this but that’s what’s being correlated because ahsa had resisted corruption from the time of the witness arriving and caused her family and species to kill each other off. so eris is learning that from ahsa through her communication
Not sure how many times “this isn’t the dark future timeline” needs to be stated
Ahsa's people were described as like, super empaths before they were corrupted. Maybe what we will see is the uncorrupted version of this psychic connection of sorts between Ahsa and Eris.
"Hope is a currency. It buys tomorrow. It gives us what we need to survive today." -Rezyl Azzir
“When does hope cease to require risk?” -Osiris
“Down where the seeds of ruin were planted. Down amongst the dark roots of the twisting blossoms. Down where things lurked beyond the light. Down amongst the shadows, there were no tomorrows. Down in the abyss, there was no hope.” -Descending Echo Armor [inverted/upended]
When did Rezyl Azzir say that? I only know about his other line about hope after he became Dregen Yor.
You just game me an idea, if Ahsa becomes a Worm god, what if she becomes the Worm god of hope?
@@Ellimanist15 it was from some flavor text from the quest for Lumina, iirc.
@@embelished_meister500 worm god of the Sky.
I think the biggest thing is Immaru seeming to not know what to do. He will take jabs at us, he will say “savathun had this plan all along” but he always seems worried at times especially when he talks about Eris. There’s something off about immaru because something doesn’t add up when he seems to be confident but at the same time not
I think Immaru's mobster vibe is a bit over the top... like he's trying to play a part.
I think he sincerely wants us to beat Xuvu... he trusts Savathun... but he's terrified of Eris. He and Savathun likely had access to information about Elsie's Dark future. He knows exactly how wrong this can go.
@@stunnell wouldn't be surprised.
Crazy idea; Eris' final play against Xivu involves taking all the energy that Ahsa is holding onto at once and detonating it to take the War God with her. The ultimate rebuttal of Sword Logic by self sacrifice and, in a rather literal sense, Bomb Logic.
The one known flaw to sword logic (self-sacrifice) *and* the way we killed Oryx. Talk about rubbing salt in the wound.
The new lore tab that came out talks about the ritual that Eris did, it's from Asha's perspective of what she felt when Eris invoked her and the other names
Yo
I really, really like the fact that the last season is this tightly connected to the current season.
We need more of that.
Vengeance sounds like a great idea until you realize other people shoulder your burden for you
I think that is the message Bungie is trying to convey this season.
The thing about Eris and the Sword Logic is that she specifically said she wants to subvert it - Ahsa knows this too which is why she agreed to help her.
As we saw with Rasputin, sacrificing yourself is one way to subvert the logic, but I'm curious to see if there is another way that Eris has planned
I think she'll do it by stopping. Assuming everything goes according to plan, Xivu will die and Savathûn will return. Eris would have a really good reason to keep being the God of Vengeance, to simply begin targeting Savathûn. But she won't, because of the consequences that choice would have and the fact that Eris has more to live for now than just revenge. In the Sword Logic, stopping is out of the question. The worm host MUST keep killing, or be killed. Eris doesn't have to accept that.
@LyonEnigma the sword logic is to cull the weak. What eris us invoking is to kill when necessary or kill those that wronged her and you could make an argument that savathun never wrong eris
Eris becoming a permanent hive god would make a perfect ending as us being her acolytes to keep xivu in a state of constant check. Her sacrifice into an immovable object to counter the unstoppable force is itself a noble deed. Furthermore, the past seasons have been about sacrifice turning to a tactical revenge with holidays death, not so much in season of the deep, but this this is on a grander scale.
Ahsa is doing it for her sisters as much as Eris is doing it for her old fireteam and ghost❤
Weird, when I did this mission yesterday, Ahsa's eyes were closed.
Ya know
Speaking of the worm gods
I wonder what the remaining ones have been up to?
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
I just hope Eris doesn't lose herself.
Me and my friend were talking about that, maybe Eris could be a villain but also I wonder how Zavala would think about our actions
You talking about the seasons reminded me of arrivals and the tree of silver wings. I remember climbing that thing and looking at its weaves. I wonder what happened to it
I like how we're seeing a pushback to the idea that we must embrace the Darkness and other malefic powers like Hive magic. As if to say, yes, we need to understand these powers, but there's a good reason these powers were taboo for so long. You can't just rush into them expecting everything to turn out alright.
Really love these weekly story updates. It's like an aftershow for each week's drop.
I have to comment that THIS one hit me like a brick to the face. It also absolutely proves my continued trust in Eris. What strikes me is with Ahsa. She straight up took this upon herself. Eris merely invoked what Ahsa told her without directly asking. But Ahsa stepped in and answered anyway, against Eris' initial intentions(and clearly against Sloane's desires.) Eris didn't want this, And she doesn't want it to continue but does so out of necessity.
At least with Ahsa, I don't think Eris is at fault. Eris did not directly ask. Eris clearly did not Want to ask. Ahsa stepped in on her own.
As for why? Ahsa isn't a perfect being, just as we aren't. Like you said, through Sloane she's likely very aware of what's going on in the world, the distress it's caused. But she also has that baggage of what happened to his sisters so long ago. Simply put, much like the Traveler had often done... She wants to help. But on the imperfect side, given everything that happened? She has a THICK Dammaz Kron to flip through and I think she's as deserving as any of us to indulge in some Vengeance herself.
The way I see it is that this week’s story was meant as a warning like if we fuck this up we’re gonna have a whole new slew of messes to clean up outside of trying to do a deal with the devil and kill the devils sister
This was a really good curveball. We knew the ritual was a risk, but this gives us tangible consequences beyond the "ooh, something bad is coming, stick around" that Byf mentioned in his critique
Is there any information on Ahsa from The Exostranger? It makes me wonder if Ahsa is the key to keeping Eris from being corrupted by the temptation of becoming a full-on hivegod. It's one thing to make that kind of choice when it effects only you but knowing you could drag another down with you may change her perspective on it in the end regardless of willingness.
During my cutsence at 8:30, Asha's eyes were closed the whole time as if she was resting. It's cool to see it could be different for other people.
Ahsa is my favorite Character along with Eris Morn, Drifter, and Crow. The growth in these Characters is awesome to see. I haven't played in awhile, but your lore videos help me catch up. A BIG Thanks!!🥰
byf sounding more and more like my uncle, who had to babysit me when i was a kid, when hes critiquing bungo about the lore and narration.
Excited to see the two other videos of lore this “slow week” produced.
Honestly their best move would be Xivu's biggest champion, the ammonite eater, getting in a fight with us and just utterly trashing us this time, with us barely making it out.
I'm glad we're revisiting places from other seasons, makes them feel important. That being said, I don't think getting sent to do something a deep dive again in a later season would make the to-do list better. Interestingly tho, I thought Ahsa was still asleep during the convo because the eye was closed the whole time.
I really hate that they make the individual seasonal story missions so short and relatively inconsequential and then make you wait a week for the next one. That's why I so often just don't play for entire seasons at a time, so I can get most/all of the missions done at once.
If we could kill another worm God and tithe it as Ahsa's vengeance for her fallen kin...
Cayde gonna come back like "Get your worm, off my map" to Eris
i was a bit disappointed it was so short until i realized it is double nightfall rewards. I am living on Europa to get those golfballs all week.
And at 10:00, if you take a look up above Ahsa's eye, I don't remember if this was there before but there's a teeny tiny little speck of Taken goop right there. I suspect as the weeks go on we'll see that speck growing as she gets further and further corrupted.
It sounds like Byf is saying the story is paused cuz there wasn't a lot of activities to do, but I was amazed to discover this week's new reveal, & sure, it would be great if there was a major connection of activity & story, but its just pretty unrealistic to expect & demand that Bungie always be at their very best. There are real people working on this game, & who knows who had Covid, whose family member died, who had a new baby, & its always amazing to me that players somehow lose sight that this game is unlike almost any other game, that keeps going & keeps you playing. I was happy with this week & I think too many people get caught in the tidal ebb & flow of expectations, more people are complaining, & it starts to pull you into that.
I should add that needlessly complaining (in my opinion) was what made me stop listen to Mylien, along with his more off the cuff, rambling & reacting to the lore, not that there's anything wrong with that, just not what I want to listen to.
It took me until watching this to realise what was probably meant by Ahsa "becoming something terrible" lmao
I feel like we will get the answers we need to progress against Xivu Arath and get on the path to the portal. However I feel like this linking of Asha and Eris is setting up some consequences that we won’t see until Episode 3 Heresy in the third act after the Final Shape. It’s like they are tying it into what’s going on now but also setting something ip which we will have to deal with later on.
Over 10 years of non-stop mass murder by an entire army of immortal space wizards, mowing down Hive by the hundreds every single minute, each. I gotta ask, the Hive has to be running out of... Hive pretty soon, right?
Ahsa never opened her eyes when I was in the dive tank
We did get a lore book of Ahsa’ perspective and her direct comentary as to why she accepted eris’s ritual
The story was a bit shorter this week, but we have gm nightfalls coming back and trials this weekend. I'd rather have a slower week and nightfall returning so the following weeks can have more stuff when gms are a few weeks old
Total agree, I dont want to be tied into a chore list every week. In my mind the task could have been tithe to me in any way you see fit.
I think, Asha is aware that the worst case, or best case scenario could happen. But she’s certain of one thing, Eris and her actions will be a chain of events that leads to the genocide of the Hive. From the smallest Thrall, to the Worm Gods themselves. She knows that, even if Eris is corrupted, she will being the end of the Hive, Asha knows that at that point, death will be the only thing to free her, and a corrupted Eris. She’s put her faith in the Guardians that, when her and Eris’ actions have slew the Hive gods, and the Worm Gods, the Guardians and our allies will kill the rest. She and Eris may not love to witness the end of the Hive, but they will have brought it about. And that’s all Asha wishes for in the end. She’s just committing to the sacrifice that’s needed to make that happen. Perhaps, after Final Shape, we will then exterminate the Hive, only for a new enemy race to take its place.
the lore book gives her motivations and how Eris contributed. Shes motivated to make up for her kins evil and sensed Eris’s intentions and plans in the summoning… its a huge part to fully understand this week… and thank you for actually turning me on to reading these!
Ahsa plushie confirmed?
Don't know if it means anything but, when I saw the Ikora and Sloane cutscene Ahsa's eye was closed the entire time, a weird bug maybe?
It's cool that they are connecting the seasons together little more than just referencing them. Also, why would the worm God of Secrets want revenge on Oryx when it told Oryx to take my secrets? lol. Unless it realized it was being used at the end of its death.
i feel like I wait a week to go stand and listen to new dialogue for 10 minutes
I think Ahsa chose to take part in the ritual because of the hope that she can redeem her brothers and sisters for everything that they have done to gain power. Using the power of the sword logic for good instead of their own dark purposes to essentially stomp on the idea that the sword logic is what it has previously always been used for by both the hive and the hive worm gods. Perhaps, in better terms, to prove that the sword logic doesn't have to be the embodying power of "only the strong should survive." I am guessing that she may also be doing it, even if only in part, out of revenge for her sisters who were killed by their family.
As much as I liked this topic, I seriously can't wait for you to cover Eris' plan on how to defeat Xivu Arath. This week was amazing! I could listen to all pieces of dialogues over and over. And I've never witnessed Ikora to be so unsure about the methods used by Eris. Can't wait for week 5!
Weirdly enough, in my conversation between Ikora, Sloane and Ahsa, the latter kept her eye closed the entire time.
I think we must not overlook Sloane’s threat; her comment about tearing the tower to the ground if anything were to happen to Ahsa. I hope we don’t see a world in which Sloane seeks revenge if something were to happen. Ahsa, I think, chose to bond in this way as a selfless act to help humanity: she is aware of the consequences that may come with that decision.
What I'm wondering is whether this is a time limit restriction, like Ikora posits, or whether this is a "don't overfill the tank" situation. It wouldn't be the first time a Savathun plot exploited Guardian mentality. EDIT: As for the discussion question, I think Ahsa put herself on the line because that's what she's consistently done throughout her known history. She played Cassandra to the people of the Golden Age, she sheltered that ill-fated submarine of Kraken Mare survivors, she bonded herself to Sloane, all because she knew the wrongs that had been done and how to fix them. She might not have been compelled to join the ritual by Hive magic, but when she heard the call, it would have been out of character for her to refuse.
I like thinking that Ahsa did this out of a combination of revenge for her family and guilt because of the path she has put us on or perhaps because her family helped create the hive and feels guilt for all the death they have caused
In the new lore book, it's in the Ahsa Point of view, and she had some motives.
Ahsa only responded and voluntarily took part in Eris' ritual because she felt the reasons and motivation behind Eris undertaking it.
She felt that Eris was reluctantly doing it to save the Universe, Ahsa knew Eris only intended to do so temporarily and is becoming a Hive God out of pure benevolence.
Ahsa knows Eris isn't being selfish in seeking the power, so Ahsa is willingly helping Eris shoulder the burden of Tithes like the Worm Gods do.
However, unlike the Worm Gods, Ahsa isn't feeding off the Tithes or Eris. She's merely using herself as a Tithe storage medium, which is why it's causing her pain and slowly corrupting her from the inside out.
Savathûn seemingly still gains some form of power from Tithes despite lacking a Worm of her own anymore, there may be a way for other lightbearing Hive magic wielding individual's to do the same.
However, Eris is no longer a Lightbearer. Sloane is a Titan, so her understanding of Hive magic extends to "Punch it until it stops" (Us Titans are good at that).
I suspect that either; Savathûn's plan is to use the Stored Tithes herself, given we are using so much of her throne world to enact the ritual, to power her resurrection in her Throne World without us allowing Immaru near her corpse.
Or
As Eris originally only wanted to risk her own life in the ritual & not Ahsa's and Sloan would do anything to protect Ahsa, both may end up sacrificing their current selves to take in all of the Tithes Ahsa is storing to save her from becoming a Hive Worm God &/or to prevent Savathûn from claiming the Tithes for herself.
To do so we may get Eris and Sloane doing the Destiny Equivalent of a DBZ Fusion and become The Taken Queen of Vengeance.
I so want this to happen, even if its just Eris being summoned back by vengeance taking in all the Tithes and Sloanes Taken corruption through Ahsa, ultimately freeing Slone from the Taken Afliction and Ahsa from becoming a Hive Worm.
Of the two the former is most likely, even if Savathûn's plan is simply syphoning off a portion of Tithes to power her Throne World resurrection while Eris and us are distracted by taking on Xivu.
Eris dying in the process, only to be summoned back as the True Hive God of Vengeance by Xivu stiking Savathûn down in a fit of rage upon seeing her.
Sounds like a Savathûn move, trick everyone involved and manipulate them in their moments of triumph to make them ultimately lose.
Giving Xivu exactly what she wanted, but with Savathûn's twist of ensuring Xivu's undoing is giving her exactly what she wanted.
Ahsa connecting herself to this ritual says ultimately it is her choice. I feel like the writing is somewhat of the parent leaving the child to fend for themselves. In that Sloane is the child of Ahsa in the way that she tries to protect her blindly with her ideals and doesn't fully understand what Ahsa wants.
I think that's really the big part of it too that we don't have a clue what Ahsa really wants other than being an enemy of the witness as well. From what you've said just in this video Ahsa sounds like she is a creature that could become a worm like the other gods before they were.
I also think that this week shows us that Elisabeth needs to worry less. Eris keeps showing us that just because she exists in darkness she isn't evil.
Something that wasn't mentioned in the critique is the new dialogue they add to the seasonal activities. Not that we got new dialogue this week, but sometimes they sneak in some good stuff
Something interesting I don't think anyone has pointed out yet, but Ahsa willingly volunteering for the ritual seemingly disobeys the sword logic. Her cooperation wasn't *TAKEN* it was *GIVEN*. Byf has discussed in a previous video that Xivu has disobeyed the sword logic by seeking revenge for Oryx's death, but now seemingly Eris has as well. We're in a state where we have two powerful hive gods both claiming to desire the sword logic, yet both have broken its core tenants.
Granted it's not too much of a surprise for Eris. We know she ultimately wants to subvert it. But assuming Bungie follows up on the idea, we have this tug of war against Xivu where both sides claim to have a stronger tie to the sword logic while both aren't following it in different ways, and now we're at risk of losing both Eris and Ahsa in the process?
Loving the tension, I hope bungie continues to nail it!
Ahsa suffers survivor's guilt (PTSD in other words), and so does Eris. Eris chose correctly by naming Vengeance as her divine portfolio among the Hive. If/when Xivu Arath lashes out at Eris, Xivu Arath will be paying tribute to Eris, falling victim to Vengeance and Cunning... consequently ascending to the pantheon, and resurrecting Savathun in one misguided swipe of Xivu Arath's blade. We used bomb logic against Oryx, but practice the Sword Logic in the field, in Gambit, and in the Crucible. We understand the logics of both sky and deep; sword and bomb; expansion and regression (safe to say there may be a dev or two at Bungie that has played Eldin Ring).
Been playing since we were 10 (20 now). The writing in this game has come so far! And seeing such intimate hive rituals is making the 6th grade lore nerd in us go crazy.
I’m having more faith that the final fight in the FS is gonna be epic af.
If Eris starts her own brood, the we get 1) Xivu as a darkness using against use, 2) Savy using Light against us. 3) Eris using hive darkness with us. 4) Then you have guardians using light. That covers all of the Light/Dark Ally/Enemy matrix. I'm still waiting for Mithrax or Eido to become Eliksni light-bearers with us so they fall into the light using ally category instead of just us, but my root statement stands that we need Eris to be our allied darkness hive.
The plan is going to work, but not without a few caveats that "should" make us question why we're doing it. And that reason is to save the Universe from destruction. That goal in mind is the saving grace that is required for Eris and Ahsa to make this work.
What would happen to Sloane, as Ahsa's bonded Guardian, if Eris were to perma shift into a Hive?
Would she be pressed into service as an acolyte, or maybe become a knight?
I'm honestly pretty alright with more direct story delivery with less busy work some weeks. I don't like being forced to do things I don't want to do just to get story content, but something more loose like this season has been is really enjoyable. The story itself, the content we're getting and the lore implications have been wonderful and I'm really happy with this season in general so far. I even commented while we were doing it this week that it's nice that each week hasn't just been identical go do the thing, come back and turn in the thing and that's it.
Just think of the Hive Act (Heresy?) in the First Episode after The Final Shape!
What if Eris and Ahsa now have to change the Hive from within (after taking a break over the course of the Final Shape Expansion and gather their strength again) which will be seen as heresy in the Hive's Eyes? Hence the Act's Name.
We've got Cabal allies, Elixni Allies, and if Eris succeeds in becoming a hive god, we might have hive allies. All we need next are Vex allies.
Was Ahsa's eye supposed to be open for when Ikora and Sloane were talking? It wasn't for me.
Edit: Byf hitting the brigg with the Parasite made a Fallen go flying in a t pose/cartwheel. Lmao
If you didn't finish last season's story on the character you're doing this season's story, she'll be awake.
Not every week is going to be an insane banger. The story was fine, you're still just bitter from Lightfall.
Lmao Sloane at the end of this week...shiver me timbers...😂
Imagine ahsa was savathiccs worm god all along and just lied to get her rezzed.
i kind of feel like ahsa will be eris's patron god similar to how akka was with oryx
In my game, Ahsa was still sleeping during the cutscene
Ahsa kept her eye closed when that in game cut scene between sloane and ikora so it didn’t hit the same for me.
The Hive have always been my favorite faction. So much so that I’ve jokenly said “I wish I was fighting on their side.” Now with Eris becoming a hive god, that desire is even more powerful. I want Eris and Ahsa to ascend so that I can become hive as well. Will this probably happen, eh most likely not but a man can dream. Though there is Lore basis for this. Toland knew that a guardian could become a hive god. The hives rituals always contain both light and darkness. Eris is enacting the same pact but without needing a worm inside her to gain strength so she shouldn’t need tithes to live. Tithes for power yes but not necessarily for life.
I didn't know asha was a daughter of mother xita
Hi Byf I has question. Do we know if Zeta is alive after we killed Rulk? Because she seems linked to the Upended and we destroy that.
Eris might have too much dip on her chip…. Ahsa is keeping eris from going full hive…. But it’s such a powerful claim that she won’t be able to control the power for much longer…. Got it…. We gotta hurry up… or ahsa may lose control along with eris… and the next time she sees us… we will be charging at her in our supers.
I’m not 100% sure about selfless motives for Ahsa. If Eris is channeling vengeance and is bonded to Ahsa then she could perhaps have a strong desire for vengeance against the witness as well.
I would imagine Asha will be dead by the time we enter the portal and maybe Eris too, then during Final Shape We'll definitely have a few major deaths as it's the end of the saga and saving the Universe will require some BIG sacrifices, character development standpoint Zavala would be a good bet as his dialogue suggests he is tired and ready to rest.
What are talking about? Week 4 of Season 19 was when Rasputin finally awoke and deleted the copy of the Clovis AI.
How do you have that dialogue scene with Ahsa's eye open?
I don't think Bungie will leave Eris trapped in her Hive God form. After all, she's still the destination vendor for the Moon.
Light and Dark. Again and again we're shown the power and importance of using both to achieve one's ends.
I wonder what else we'll discover when the two paracausal forces are combined?
How come my Ahsa’s eyes were closed? Interesting
Anyone else notice that Ahsa has very small taken looking spots on her now??
Im going to keep checking back to see if that spreads throughout this season
On the other hand, maybe those spots where there the whole time. I might just have noticed late.
Sloane really did choose a fish over the last city
I'm curious, does Ahsa have Anthem Anatheme too? What form does it take? It does seem like Anthem Anatheme was originally a power of their species, which caught the Witness' attention.
I was pretty annoyed when Ikoris let the "I'd burn the tower to the ground" comment slide so easily... especially when she keeps making offhand comments about OUR "loyalty to the vanguard" being in question... b*tch, we ARE the Vanguard.
what if eris saves ahsa with her ahamkara bone, but in doing so has to relinquish any chance of returning to her human form? and Might align with her pulling the wish card from the deck of wispers in the lore book...
I worry her motivation is simply the same as Eris'. Vengeance.
In the lore book ahsa says she answered the offer only because eris’ will sought the protection of all reality, not just ones kin, nor any other selfish reason, but the protection of reality itself
I do hope ahsa doesn't die just because they want to get rid of the titan location from the game files again.
Eris and asha making the ultimate sacrifice and becoming hive gods and worms.
Me and the fellow warlocks who want to use hive magic: I see this as an absolute win
I hope we end up with a permanent Hive god and Worm god on our side. It would be fcking COOL
Ik that the whole thing with Ahsa speakin n vague terms is kinda looked at as goofy by some but, even if u translate some human languages into other human languages the literal translations sometimes hafta b tweaked to make sense. So it does kinda make sense that it might b difficult for a species of life from hundreds or more light years away to speak n a way that we would consider clear and to the point.
Ahsa is in exile from everyone of her species since they embraced sword logic and she did not. Everything she’s done has been a bid for connection due to how fundamentally lonely she has been for millennia.
Like many others are saying, I think Ahsa responded to the ritual because she understands this moment in time. I know the Hive chronology is uncertain to an extent, but its very plausible that if Ahsa is a billion years old or more, if she escaped the Witness's corruption of the proto-worm civil war. For untold eons she ran, through the seas of Fundament, through the Ascendent plane, landing and hiding on Titan for who knows how long. And in all that time, one recurring thought must have been that she does not know how to stop the Witness destroying everything. Then she meets humanity, then she meets Guardians, she meets Sloane. She finally sees in all of us her opportunity to stop the Witness. She sees a spark of hope, a possibility of victory. And when Eris reaches out and says "Avenge your fallen siblings," she says yes.
