  • They rule the space outside the Reef. All of the Jovian planets fall under their control. They have some relations with the Awoken. They freed Skolas to warn us of Oryx's approach

  • Can you elaborate on the Skolas Oryx statement?

  • When Skolas was within the Vex networks, he saw Oryx's coming. He mumbled of this Light-Snuffer, Dark-Binder when captured by the Queen. The Nine knew he would do this, so they sent one of their Agents to free him

    What was the primary source on Skolas being a warning (and going into the network)? I've always seen him as a step in the pattern more than a warning. Also, he wanted to see into the network for the gift of prophecy- but he never fulfilled that plan due to Awoken and Guardian interference.

  • The Nine freed him, gave him a Ketch and resources. Later, in the Queen's custody, he spoke of Oryx. He had some interaction with the networks. Petra detects a faint Vex signature in the first mission, and Skolas pulls the Wolves through time in the last mission

    I understood the gaining Skolas powers to him controlling the Oracles. I did not see him as a messenger so much as a step in the pattern. The messenger is Oryx, borne on black wings. Also, while reading the Queen Gambit, I realized she directly says to send a message to Osiris and Eris after Skolas sends his message. That pretty much end all confirms the Queen 2 as Eris and Osiris- which in turns confirms Mara as the "Queen"
