The Origins and Agenda of Mara Sov part 5

It is clear now what the Black Heart was, a proto-Darkness, created by studying the Worms of the Hive. Quria, and his subminds, are the Vex we face currently. These are the ones that worship the Black Garden and share the Hive God complex, but does that mean there’s no more? Could it be that the Vex have several like Quria, and millions who follow each? Could Quria be but one of the central minds that control all the Vex? Of course then there are different Vex with different agendas, so what of them? Did they not cross into the Hive Throne World and discover the act of worship? It seems that way, it seems that Savathûn, mother-morph of Sathona, sister to Oryx, Queen of the Awoken, has had contact with other Vex, the Harbinger Minds. So what of Mara, what is her plan? Still living, faking her death and in doing so getting close, real close, to the Dreadnaught. Well… let’s look at two more cards. Oryx: Rebuked and Oryx: Defeated. In my opinion both of these cards are spoken by Toland, the Shattered and also that Toland is the “spark” that guides us throughout the story, but that’s for another time. [quote][b]In World the stars never shone, The worm never bred in our flesh, We lived for a day Our teeth were too short We were hungry for things we could not eat[/b] Hello again. It’s me. I’m sure you know my name. Let me talk a while, let me talk, I do take a debased joy in speaking again to small human-form heads. When Crota’s victory over our little blue world seemed certain (a moment of silence, now, for Wei Ning, whose directness I admired) it was Oryx who called His Child back into the nether world to plan final victory. It was to Oryx that the violence of His spawn was tithed. Oryx is the wielder and the servant of a terrible truth. He has predicated Himself on it, He has pursued across thousands of cairn worlds His quest to embody it, and you have seen the force of that truth expended to create these Taken. He is not a simple thing to kill. He wants to be isomorphic to conquest, to triumph, to killing and death. He is a syllogism, now, but in time He hopes to become an axiom. This is His strength and His fatal weakness. For if he ever falters in His performance, if the inflow of devastation ever falls behind His expenditure of ruin, He will be consumed. If He is ever outmatched, then by the terms of His own existence, He will cease. It is to Oryx Himself, in the heart of the Dreadnaught that armors and encapsulates his throne-world, that you must make your last and surest argument. Good luck! Do let me know if a vacancy opens.[/quote] [quote][b]Listen — Death is the last part of living and life is learning to die The song is the same as the singing The last truth commands me to eat all the light in the sky I will go on forever. I will understand.[/b] Dwell a moment on the weight of what you’ve done. Contemplate the story you just ended. Will you ever do anything that screams down the millennia? Will you ever hammer your will on the universe until it rings and rings and rings? Oryx was an awesome power. Show reverence. All right. Enough. Enough. A vacancy has opened, hasn’t it? How interesting. How very interesting. Do you ever pause, dear listener, to consider who benefits from all this heroism you commit? Do you ever look around you and feel the faintest chill? As if you are the tiny little ball bearing placed beneath a great mass, so that it might, if pushed, begin to roll? You’re a god yourself, now. You’ve consecrated yourself. Emulate me. Use your power to learn. There are worse things to practice being.[/quote] And now we get to the root of Destiny. Mara Sov. Mara, who led us to the Black Garden to dispose of the Proto-Dark that mimicked her god, Mara who saved us from the Wolves and then used us as pawns to dispose of them when the battle was too great; furthermore using the Wolves themselves, and more directly Skolas to predict the coming of her brother! Mara Sov who faked her death, sacrificed several of her own people, all to grant us entry to the Dreadnaught to defeat Oryx himself. She is far far too cunning for us Guardians. We’ve killed fledgling gods who think nothing of destruction, smarter gods who weave and unravel, and even the father who navigated the stars, but can we defeat the her? One so wise, so cunning? And will we ever have to? What is she planning? Is it simply to remove her brother from the picture? Or is it to claim the Hive as her own, subjects to replace her once Wolves. But even more worrying is something mentioned in a grimoire we’ve actually already covered, Coven. [quote]“So now the decision is nigh. The Harbingers, which to prepare?” Shuro was determined to see this all through. Excitement was taught to be kept at bay. “We cannot send them all.” Portia reminded. “All but one, the oldest. It stays with us. Sedia, Kalli, Shuro, take the children, tell her they are to be planted into a dead thing to have children of their own.” A plan hid behind Illyn’s eyes, but Techeuns do not share their eyes with others.[/quote] I save this for the last thing to be said because it’s the one thing that i cannot confidently say I comprehend. Mara, and her Techeuns, shot the Harbingers into the Dreadnaught to breed. An infestation in the Dreadnaught, eating it from the inside out. We defeated Oryx, leaving that vacancy, and now this? Honestly Guardians, I’m worried. Mara is more than we could ever hope to defeat. While others, Gaurdian (that’s a name), disagree and think she’s on our side, I can’t shake the feeling we’re not getting the full scope of her agenda. . Thankyou for reading Guardians, this is your friendly neighborhood AnonPig, and I hope you enjoyed this theory.

    Interesting to say the least. It also kind of fits with my theory that the Traveler is part of the Vex as i surmise that only a Vex Overmind (Judge) could stop the Vex cold from transforming a planet.You need to remember that the Vex are a Darkness so Dark they despise all other Darkness. That can only happen if the Vex were so seeped in the Light that they didn't have a concept of Darkness until they encountered Crota. And Because they had no concept of Darkness the Heart of Darkness was able to corrupt the Vex so compleatly. I would like your thought on this avenue of thought and also why you think the Traveler choses us the youngest of all the races to be it's last defenders of the Light.
