It could be Savathun, why not with all the mention she’s been getting.
Bungie has been using up quite a few destiny legends of late, Osiris, Rasputin, Nokris , Xol. There is the taken presence in the dreaming city, Savathun being a trickster and deceiver, pulling strings.
The prison of elders being such a concentration of powerful “bad guys” it would be a logical spot for her to manipulate, perhaps help the creation of the 8 barons along.
Either that or the Sovs have their own understanding and utilization of ascendant power. Mind you Uldren appears rather desperate for that to be the case, but who knows.
The awoken are more or less space elves with the taken presence being the evil curse and Savathun the big bad witch.

<Yeah but there's one more big DLC coming next September and with it's location, it's a lot better if she's there while only being behind what's happening here. She deserves her own full story, not half a story. The build up makes her seem like the end game of Destiny 2, not the 2nd to last boss of D2.>

We’ll defeat them and then finally the darkness itself or someone at least closer to it will come in themselves to whoop our butts aka the pyramid ship people.

<Xivu actually seems more likely to attempt resurrecting Oryx or Savathun than the latter does at resurrecting Oryx.>

Xivu doesn’t seem likely to do necromancy. On top of the fact that resurrecting hive is heresy, Xivu is supposed to be a brutal knight, not the type to use magic.

<Before she took the Knight morph, she was the most innocent of the triplets... probably because she was the youngest. She still says simple things even into Knighthood.>

The three siblings all share a pretty deep bond, twisted as it may be by the worms and their pact. At the end of the book of sorrows they go their separate ways to become different from each other, presumably to become more diverse and harder to defeat, more adaptable.

<Yeah but Savathun's a bitch with a ton of ulterior motives.>

Don’t forget it’s almost a kind of play between them more a rivalry between siblings, practicing sword logic i.e. survival by enduring existence vs totally defeating, making non-existent anything else. They’ve so far never put that to lasting effect against each other. Even when Oryx killed the other two, they more or less offered themselves up towards prevailing in the end.
