@@jamieharper1051 There is the dark future where Eris bind Savathûn to her will and becomes a hive god that way, but that is a different timeline. How I see it is that every version of Eris has the potential to be that powerful.

I just want Savathun to come back and it turns out her “cunning” and “deception” in the plan was actually just plain honesty. Based on how Imbaru works, truth is as powerful as a lie, moreso if someone believes the truth to be a lie. Their belief in a lie feeds Imbaru, and Savathun proving her cunning by being honest the whole time also feeds Imbaru. Having her return as an ally of existence over non existence instead of as an ally of humanity or a sudden last antagonist before The Final Shape would be much more powerful for the world of Destiny as a whole. Yes, Savathun has done terribly awful things. She’s also been playing such a long con that she fooled the Witness, Nezarec, Rhulk, and has a plan for Xivu Arath. All she wants to do is LIVE and LEARN and she can’t do that when nothing exists at all. And I think she’s fascinated by the concepts of light/dark and wants to study them as in-depth as possible, and can’t do that if the Witness wins. TL;Dr - Savathun should come back as an ally of existence and the power that helps her is her actual honesty, not some long-con of us.

Her power of vengeance via talk no jutsu

I love whenever Byf says “take a listen to this” and an ad plays. Neuron activation enforces me to go “oh no! *product*!!”

I've long since given up playing destiny because life doesn't allow for the time required to enjoy it, but these videos and your passion for the lore are the reason I still know about and care about what's going on, and I thank you for that

Thank you for the video. Honestly feel like I wouldn't be half as interested in Destiny without your videos. They help build the lore and world so much and help my own understanding, and things I miss playing myself.

So Aiat means basically what we could already tell that it meant. It's nice to have it put unto concise, canon, words though

Aiat is actually the third person form of Aio, which itself means “I say” or “I assert” in latin. Basically Eris is saying “Eris has spoken.

Every time Eris says Aiat, it empowers Savathun. If Aiat means that you know that the previous statement is True, and said statement is in fact not true, you are being bewildered, and as such, generating Imbaru. Although we are in fact strengthening Eris through the rituals, since we are invoking vengeance with each ritual, by not understanding completely what we are doing, we are also strengthening Savathun. Remember: Savathun is a Hive God, and they don't need ghosts to be immortal. Not only that, but we also have evidence that point to the possibility of hive being able to communicate with their ghosts when they are dead. Maybe we are all playing on Savathun's hand, and even the fact that we killed her, is part of her plans.

The only winning move really is not to play. Imbaru is the name of strength derived from a *failure* to *understand*. Broken down, this requires three things: 1. Something to understand 2. The attempt to understand it 3. The failure of the attempt #1 is crucial because Savathûn can't, for instance, simply invent a word and grow strength from an audience that doesn't know its meaning -- otherwise we would never know what she's saying and she would have infinite power. This means that in order to be effective, any one thing Savathûn does or says has to reasonably be interpretable to have at least two different meanings (intentions, motives, what have you). Just from the get-go. THEN, she has to convince an audience (because, presumably, she cannot misunderstand herself for cheap power) that it is in their interest to understand so that they can respond to it. This *tends to* be easy with us as we believe that not understanding means not responding, and not responding will lead to not existing. Finally, the audience must mentally confirm/assert the untrue interpretation as the truth -- which we'll just assume as given that simply doing so (not even acting on that understanding) is an automatic satisfaction of the Imbaru condition. So this brings us to the Imbaru Engine. Note that though there are multiple chests, there are only two choices: fail and succumb to Imbaru, empowering Savathûn, or succeed and *conjure* Savathûn. Savathûn's definition of "cunning" is "the use of thought to predict the function of a system." In the Imbaru Engine, she demonstrates the prediction of Guardian behavior on two different orders of magnitude: in the micro (Chest Choice), making the wrong decision demonstrates a failure to understand the presented system, which satisfies Imbaru -- but making the right decision demonstrates a success to understand the Chest Choice micro system, and thus demonstrates Savathûn's definition of cunning, which, in turn, *conjures* cunning, and as demonstrated in the Books of Sorrow, may serve as the mechanism by which she is resurrected... potentially without the use of a Ghost. Failing to understand this is a failure to understand the macro system of the Imbaru Engine, which is *also* a subtle grant of Imbaru. What was that thing Nokris said? "There are no gods. There are only chains, and those at either end." We are not the only ones working both Light and Darkness. Savathûn still has a Throne World, an Ascendant Plane, and she also happens to have a Ghost who is still alive. Because a death in the Ascendant Plane might still be undone by a conjuration of the Ascendant Plane's demiurge, Savathûn may have simply figured out another redundancy around death itself, one that doesn't even necessarily require her body. But Imbaru, and its Engine, still require following all three steps -- and even failing all three steps, may cause her conjuration through the action of interacting with the system as understood. So the least dangerous option is not just ignorance, but willful ignorance, to foil the system at step 2 and negate the third entirely. And that also means not interacting. The only winning move is not to play.

But this is not tithing. They specifically only get tithe from conquest. Everything Savathun has ever done has been because of that. Her attempts to escape it. Another quirk of their natures is that they are required to always embody their nature. If they don't receive sufficient tithe from conquest, they will starve, but also if they don't embody their natures, the worm will just straight up kill them. I suspect Bungie has gotten these features mixed up, coupled with spending a while writing for Xivu, who's nature as the hive god of war naturally gives her this "lose-lose, if she wins she gets tithe, if she loses we invoke her nature" scenario, so they forgot that Savathun cannot gain power from trickery. If you're unsure, ask yourself this. Why did Savathun want the light?

I dont know it sometimes just seems like she wants us to have a better understanding of her. Like to know thy enemy is to learn to love them.

I seriously do start to question the logic some people are following that "playing into Savathûn's plan" is somehow a worry? Why is that such a BAD thing? We're getting GOOD THINGS DONE, are we not?

Well because Savathun only plays to her benefit, and had a history of extremely effective double crossing right at the very end. She did this with Oryx when she manipulated crota. She did this to crow when under the guise of Osiris. Did this to the entire city once again under that guise. And she did this to the entire coalition when she tricked us all to remove her worm so she could get the light. And every time things she was doing were at first appearing to be for our benefit, of out of a common goal. But right at the end she would sweep the rug, making sure that she would benefit far more. And if a plan appears to be beneficial to us, it is always with a catch. For example Savathun released Osiris when she escaped Mara's prison. Technically she didn't have to, but she did it because it accomplished two things: - Osiris would catch a part of the tower's attention and hold off Saint-14 at the very least. - Osiris was Savathun's insurance policy in case of her death, someone that could learn of the veil and kick off the process to get to the point we are at currently. And this is the case for everything she ever did. Any perceived benefits just exist to fuel more of her plans and therefore one must always be cautious

The week-by-week progression triumph for the seasonal quest has 7 parts, so Week 7 is the conclusion of the story quest. I'm hoping that when time come for Immaru to uphold his end of the bargain, we have Light-suppressing tech ready to hit the little bugger and depower Savathun, then hold him hostage to extract her knowledge before killing both. But that's just wishful thinking on my part.

Did anyone catch the subtle hint that Ikora gave us in her final line to us? That we are in control of this and can stop it, as if directing us indirectly to stop Eris if she goes too far. By any means necessary. Just a hunch from reading behind the lines.

A point that may be significant: xivu wants revenge for her fallen siblings. Does that mean if she goes to war against eris, xivu will be tithing to eris through her war? It is semantics... but could be significant. Eris does not want war. Xivu wants revenge. Xivu must tribute to the eris for her goals. Eris does not need to tribute xivu.

I feel the imbaru engine will be the exotic mission. They might not tell us it’s releasing, similar to whisper.

I had legitimately no idea what I was doing when I first entered the Engine, but somehow I slammed it out first try with no mistakes. I guess my intuition is better than cunning.

Byf should be an honourary hive god of texts

one thing i haven't heard anyone speak about is Finch's implications. He states that he can still hear his hive knight guardian screaming at him to be revived. He even has animations when you approach him of him basically throwing himself at the guardian in a NO kinda way. That being said i wonder how much of what Imaru is saying is his own and not him repeating what savathun is telling him to say. Because its confirmed that guardians can still communicate with their ghosts despite death we cannot rule out the possibility that savathun is way more involved here than we think. (Written prior to video, its been on my mind since last video)

14:17 this definition of Aiat contradicts the one just recently given in the lightfall lorebook where Caiaitl (who’s name literally contains the word) says it means “all will go as it must”. Caiatl is a modification of it that means, according to her, “it may not always go as it needs to go”. Seems pretty silly to have a relatively large part of a relatively small amount of lore in a collectors edition be almost immediately contradicted. My guess is they forgot they included that little tidbit. Also if her definition is indeed wrong then that means her definition of her own name is wrong. She doesn’t even know what her own name means. Bungie kinda ffed up on this one. Also apparently their was another definition that came from writer Seth Dickinson years ago. “This is it, and its purpose is expression, its meaning is the invocation of what it is, its mission is to draw in the mind and make an incision of curiosity and to be that incision which is a question and its own solution, to make one hunger for an answer whose answer is its own wanting. Aiat. This is it, it is that utterance.” This definition could be stretched to somewhat be the same as what Eris says I suppose, but it’s a stretch. So there you go, 3/2.5 meanings for the same word.

Conceptually- the existence of the Imbaru engine is such a complex catch 22 that it truly displays Savathun's godhood has a god of deception

When I played through all of this during Reset, I was (understandably) freaking the fuck out. It drove home the belief that Savathun has been playing us like a fiddle since before Forsaken home.

Your work is amazing. Aiat.

Let’s go a byf video AIAT. Also since oryx conjured savathun with cunning could the engine be used to control/corrupt Eris and maybe make savathun the god of cunning and vengeance ?

I find it interesting that Oryx was once female who was transformed into a male to become the Taken King with his plan that envies the sword logic. Now Eris who is female is in the exact path that Oryx envoked of which Xivu calls her a “sister”. Kinda make sense of a weird reincarnation.

i said as i logged in that this week is probly going to be a filler week. Was kinda chuckling to myself when that's exactly what it was. Not in the structure of it but in the sense that it didn't tell us anything new. I can appreciate that it was to familiarize those less familiar with the lore with the sword logic and such, but was also kinda hoping for something a lil more for those of us who already knew.

Reminds me of Wargames; "A strange game; the only winning move is not to play.".

So Aiat basically is Senator Armstrong's "It has to be this way" condensed into a word.

Maybe once we separated Savathun from her worm,all of the imbaru she has generated has been storing in the engine waiting for us to come along with our hive powers.This could be what helps us and Eris to defeat Zivu's brood/Zivu.

We already separated her from her worm back in Season of the Lost

They feared her ways and knowledge but kept her on side, now that she's got powers to match her knowledge you fear her. You fear what you don't truly understand nor control, the comfort they had knowing they had the power to stop her at anytime is almost gone and that scares them.

I think it has changed since the last mandatory run right? New shrine that lets you purchase stuff inside the instance and new boss content plus I think they want you to remember the look of it before the imbaru run. I dunno…I might be wrong.

A head pat from Savathûn

I had a dream last night where my ghost got shot and I had to find Eris in the hope that tithing to her would grant me immortality to take revenge for my ghost. I need to take a break perhaps

What was the saying? Deal with the devil you know?

Now that's what i call AIAT VOLUME *HIVE NOISES HERE* 😂

Yo you gotta do this weeks new lore big fan it’s very interesting

In our understanding we are made strong, aiat!

Aiat is basically Hive for Amen. For reference “Amen” means “This is the truth” as a declaration.

Um Byf I hate to break it to to but the altars of summoning was important. When you start one from the beginning you can choose to channel one of two symbols. Choosing the one with only 3 gives you the lucent blessing. Those same two symbols show in the imbaru engine. The correct one is the same in both.

Just last week I thought about how characters always seem to act like we dont exist, then suddenly both characters are speaking directly to us.

Beginning of the season I don't mind having to run the seasonal activities as part of the weekly quest, they are still new, fresh content and I'm chasing red borders. Though having to run 5 Altars when I'm kinda sick of them and have everything I want from the season felt bad

I personally feel that The Engine popping up with literally no... prior dialogue talking about it before it does is more scary and interesting than having Eris freaking out (unlike her IMO) over it showing up like it did. I don't think Savathun having this in her arsenal to only now be revealed would come as a surprise to Eris at all.

Savathun gets power from comedy.

I think no weeks during a season should be a busywork season. The exception being COMMUNITY busywork to unlock something. I’d adore if we had a counter for tithes to Eris.

@@AyyFuji I mean, bare minimum, this would be the season to do it. Lore wise tithing to Eris would get us somewhere. Have two endings/rewards to the season based off completing it or not.

What if the Leviathan-Eater is being sent to specifically to crown Eris as part of the Patheon. Killing a being with that level of energy could completely overflow the tithes and it's what springs the trap. Xivu keeps on welcoming Eris, like she's already won... what if she has?

if its right then I think the imbaru engine might be a big key in how savathun will come back (aside from immaru)

Imbaru Engine: Maze, puzzle, problem. So to beat the Engine is to solve the problem. If you prove yourself more cunning than the creator of the puzzle by solving the puzzle without help, then you would gain power over them. The real question is: how long would that take? The longer we stay stuck in the Engine, the longer we empower Savathun.

Keep me around with busy work? They can't even keep me around with working servers.

The way to conquer the engine is with Bomb Logic: Blow it up.

I was very disappointed that we don't stick to the *floor* in the imbaru engine, surely that would have been more confusing, but i guess the engine cant do it

“They say there are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true. The other, is to refuse to believe what is.” Savathun has lied so much that truth is now the deceptive option.

Logged on excited to do weekly story, went to helm listened to ikora, got told to go to altars of summoning and immediately logged off, just wish they would let us play the season at our leasure and not wait week upon week for little tid bits of information

Aiat, literally means...YEAH! (LA Knight talk)

Byf Byf Byf please Also! Given imbaru is all about finding the right runes.... I noticed in altars, when you're invoking to begin summoning, there's a whole multitude of runes, well two flavours, one only has 3 alike and so every time I try to encourage guardians I play with to stand in those 3 spots. Now think of this! It's the same rune of the correct chests in imbaru.... Are we tithing to savathun too when we invoke the wrong runes?

A classic "damned if we do, damned if we don't," scenario.

Honesty, I feel like Zavala checked out a bit after Season of Haunting(?). He trusts Ikora and will defer to her.

I have a weird question Can we resurrect Savathun twice? Immaru resurrect Savathun body with the light , but with enough show/power of cunning , will Savathun get empowered by her side of the Sword Logic or do we get a second Savathun before she got the light ?

Our loot goblin instinct has betrayed us

everything immaru says seems to reinforce the question of whether or not savathun is on our side against the witness, but feel like im the only one who realizes that if she was 100% on our side she would still talk and act just like this. she and her siblings fought and killed each other personally and pit their armies against one another for thousands of years during their crusades across the universe. this is how she treats her allys, how she treats family and shows them love and respect: by fighting with them to grow stronger.

HI BYF!!!

I had to immediately come to you and myelin's video after I finally got to do the story today because I just couldn't on reset and so on, because I was like... I heard that "This is the power of her brother" and I was like Oryx?! So are we actually dealing or generating taken energy? What even is imbaru? Wouldn't it be Immaru? Then my friend told me somehow that this is Savathun's energy I don't know how she figured that out because there was no mention of it. After the mission I was like "THAT'S IT? WE JUST DISCOVERED AND GENERATED PURE ENERGY TO *SOMEONE* WITH THIS ENGINE THAT WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT IS!" I was like this is WAAAAY TOO BIG OF A DEAL to just let it slide with no exposition after the mission wtf.

Nothing to do with the video, but my headcanon is that the weapon crafting glitch was caused by Xivu as a way to bring about more war and death than usual at a greater speed XD

I suspect the imbaru engine is actually Savathun's hint about how to overcome Xivu Arath, and one that shows Savathun is less clever than she thinks. Xivu is scraping our tributes to Eris by definition abuse. Fight -> do War -> invoke Xivu. However, Savathun's creation of Imbaru creates an alternate method - do something Xivu can't understand. This, of course, has the disadvantage of feeding Savathun... *if we play by the version of the rules that exists in Savathun's head.* There's a way to not only legitimately bamboozle Xivu's Sword-Logic-addled mind, but to do it without a drop of cunning, and even strip away the Hive God of Vengeance to boot. It's for Eris to show genuine mercy. The question is whether or not anything in the Sol system can convince her to.

Heres a thought, what if we summon Savthun back wiyh cunning but iys not the current version of herself, its the past version where she wielded or was empowered by the Darkness, but then what if also Immaru then brings back the current version of Savathun that wields the Light. Yhen we could have 2 Savathuns, one of Light and one of Dark, and they should somehow merge together and then wield both Light and Dark

So if we brought back Savathuun via conjuring cunning, would she still be separated from her worm? Would she still be the same Savathuun that was resurrected by the traveler? After all it was her worm that was fed from cunning, not her

Im pretty sure she Lost all her Hive Magic. If I remember, i think the wellspring is the (main) thing keeping It together. But Savathun herself is not anymore the "Goddess of cunning". Shes now just the Witch Queen, Who is also very cunning

@my name is byf How does cunning empower Savathun? She was empowered by cunning through her worm, that we removed.

So my dyslexia kicked in and I read Immaru instead of Imbaru and totally confused myself. 💀
