Savathun is not evil (SPOILERS)

I just replayed the 1st mission again and noticing the dialogue. Considering we know now that Savathun had her memories erased, probably had her Hive followers remember some about they're relationship-- they were their version of "The Last City". On first meeting, we killed the Hive guardian (probably no worries) but then [b]we killed the Hive ghost[/b]. And Savathun was referring to us as "honored guests" and not as usual 'guardians' but at the same time I think [b]she had sensed some Darkness in us[/b] because of Stasis and so we were strangers to her that came and attacked her people and killed a ghost-- something that "mirrors us" she said. These [b]Lucent Hive were pure Light[/b] already and we were half Light half Dark. . We have to keep in mind [u][b]Savathun was basically "reset" into a fresh new guardian[/b][/u] and she wasn't who she was before and during season of the lost (much like Crow). Despite how devious Savathun's personality seems, she's still like a good leader supposedly trying to protect her people and the Traveler. I think in their eyes (and even objectively) we were the 'bad guys' in this one.

    Savathûn is still our enemy in The Witch Queen. While yes, her plan had [b]THE TRAVELERS[/b] best interest in mind, it would’ve left Humanity defenceless and caused our extinction, an event Savathûn would’ve watched with glee. This is in stark contrast to something like Forsaken, where we were played and our ‘victory’ was almost a complete loss. This isn’t to say Savathûn won’t become an ally in the fight against the Witness, considering she’s obviously coming back, but to claim she isn’t evil is ridiculous. Savathûn is self serving, she would sacrifice the Traveler and the Hive in a heartbeat to ensure her own survival. The only reason she turned to the Light was that her Worm acted as a ticking time bomb that could never be defused.
