To answer this question we must first under what a god is exactly. A god is defined as super natural being have power of nature, an immortal, a being positioned in a holy place, also an emotion. To generalize this a god is simply a powerful being having control of a dominion. In Greek mythology, Zeus ruled the heavens, Poseidon ruled the seas, and Hades ruled the underworld. There were also lesser gods such as Athena goddess of War, Wisdom, etc, Aphrodite goddess of love, Hercules god of Heroes, and many others. From Card Ascendant Sword Toland - "Whenever in our passage we find ourselves in need of power—remember that the greatest authority here is a blade made keen by eons of use. This is the world the Hive craves: a universe creased by the edge of the sharpest sword" Crota is only Hive god we've seen far. According to the card, Crota's Twilight was create so was ruled by the ascendant swords, Crota's sword ruling all others (Lord of the rings thing). As Eris said "He's is not their only God." Each Hive god must also control their own realms of existence. There could be a hive god of Torture that represents the Ogres, a Wizard God that screams, fright, or even a hive god that poisons the world. But what would Oryx's world be like. Well Oryx is God King of all the Hive, and what is the Hive exactly. Grimoire Hive: "Are they alive? They move, they shriek, they fall upon us in ravenous waves. But I see death, decay, and corruption, not life." Grimoire Warlock 2: "It laughed at me. It said we were the same." Eriana-3 torturing a hive wizard. In the second card, I thought the wizard spoke metaphorically, until I put these two together. All Guardians are dead being brought back to life. The Hive I believe are just the same, dead beings brought to existence. The Death Singer Ir Yut, Toland suggested, pinned herself to the song of death so that she can sing it without herself dying. "Oryx. Dead. King. Oryx. Dead. King. Oryx. Dead. King. Three words in three bursts, nine words. Could it be... Osiris?" - Rahool Oryx is dead, he has broken the barrier between life and death, his realm is death and that is where the hive spawn into existence. He decides what will live and what will die. How do kill something that is already dead? To end this hive nightmare we must put an end to Oryx, but how? Oryx I believe does not have a physical form, but something that just existence. We first severe his connections to realm, perhaps the Hive gods themselves are his connections. Then we must enter the realm of death and cleanse his soul with pure light that no darkness can touch. How exactly? I'm not sure. The Warlock Osiris might have the answers we need. The Power to judge if you will live or die. Now that is a terrifying.
