Riddle of the Last

I'll skip the formalities this time. Have at it! ________________________________________ Who/What am I? I am seen but thrice; or perhaps only twice. Either way, it is enough. When I appear, death follows close behind, swooping in on tarnished wings. But I do not determine my fate; he chooses when I shall appear. Or perhaps it is not him, but the other. The first a teacher, the second a student; the first kindling, the second a roaring fire. Who will have the final say? I shall determine. For if there is beauty in destruction, why not also in its delivery? [b]Hint 1[/b]: One. A motion, rapid as a lightning bolt. Two. Cracks and cuts, rings and echoes, one falling. Three. Rage, channeled through the sword. Four. Now you are in control. [b]Hint 2[/b]: Only in times of great need do I make my spectacular appearance. The bribers, the foundry of the dark, created my namesake. It has a dark twin, but that is another story. After all, this is not my tale, but yours. [b]Winner[/b]: Seagebs [b]Answer[/b]: "Yours, not mine," If you liked this riddle, and you can't wait to see more, check out the [u]Destiny Riddlers[/u] clan!

    Skolas? He is seen 3 times, but when you see him in PoE is not story driven, therefore optional, so he could be but twice. Death follows him on tarnished wings? Yes, in the form of old reef ships chasing him or time worn fallen ships due to vex tech. In PoE, he doesn't choose when to appear, Variks does. Variks is a teacher and a scribe for house judgement as per lore, and the other could be seen as Petra. Petra is a student and disciple of the Queen, and her hatred is a raging fire whereas Variks is simply kindling, a rage that he suppresses through challenges such as PoE but could erupt given a spark. Who will have the final say I shall determine could refer to the queen overruling Petra on taking skolas in alive, and skolas determined that by his display of cunning. Lastly, the last sentence is the description for Gally, which would have been the HoW raid weapon, gained from defeating Skolas. So my answer is Skolas Edit: also the title is riddle of the last which can look at the [i]last[/i] dlc
