Destiny 2 Lore - Necrochasm's new lore & the mysterious new origins of the Weapons of Sorrow!
Ойындар
Destiny 2's Lore and Story around the Necrochasm has evolved since the revamped version of Crota's End was added into Destiny 2. The new version of the Raid Exotic has lore implying that it was related to the Hive weapon master known as Enkaar, but it also implies that the inspiration for the Necrochasm came from whispers heard from another dimension.

Hey, Byf: if memory serves me right, if you die to Enkaar, the death screen will confirm that he is using a Thorn prototype fittingly called "Proto-Thorn"

@@Alak-Hul_Darkblade Not exactly. Rose before its transformation was just a normal hand cannon with no special perks (it even appears as a Legendary weapon in D2). It only became the Thorn when Dredgen Yor attached Hive bones to the Rose as a sort of trophy commemorating his victory over the Hive. The best assumption I've got is like how we as the player or the Shadows of Yor can craft copies of the original weapon, Enkaar did something similar only to come out with a different design and possibly even something just as powerful as the first Thorn going off his boss fight (if we fail to shoot it in the Enkaar boss, it will just instantly kill us, which seems similar to the OG Thorn's properties of draining the Light out of Guardians to the point they can't revive).

It does seem that Nezarec is quite entangled with everything that happened on the Moon, indeed. He may also transcend death like the Ahamkara, since Savathun killed him during the Collapse. He was on his way to Earth with the Veil before she stole it and hid it away on Neptune. It’s possible that Crota may have been looking for it. It’s also noteworthy that Rezyl Azzir went to the Moon in the first place to “search for nightmares” after the Hive had started to invade Earth by deploying seeders.
I really hope after the LvD saga that we get a revival of The Nine... i would be awesome to see and learn more about them finally.
To make things more convoluted: There is a subtle connection between Dregen Yor and Xivu Arath, or at least the Wrathborn. In the book 'Call of the Cryptolith' the soon to be Wrathborn hear whispers which correspond to passages from the 7th Book of Sorrow found in 'For every Rose a Thorn' and 'The Book of Unmaking'. It is also said that the Weapons of Sorrow (or at least Necrochasm) are based upon the Hive's understanding of mankind's mastery of war, of which Xivu is the god of, while the 7th Book of Sorrow was found by the Shadows on Yor's derelict ship, either written or transcribed by him. Considering the timeline, it would not be surprising if he was the first source of these insights due to what he became, and Thorn the first Weapon of Sorrow. What is more, the ship was whispering, causing the Shadows' ears to bleed, described as a white noise at the edge of their thoughts - either like the Crypotliths or like the keyholes above Ceres, or perhaps both.

I’ve decided that my Word of Crota is my Titan’s own take on a Weapon of Sorrow: bright white chitin scales prized from the final corpses of Sentinel Hive Titan Guardians, sewn together onto my Seventh Seraph Officer’s Revolver with the darkness of Hive sorcery and the winding threads of Strand on the Deepsight alter beneath the Enclave of Mars, all to drag a tortured sliver of the Hive Guardian’s Void Light into the gun, filling it with agonizing malice and a consuming emptiness that will devour all in its path, both Light and Dark.
it seems to me that whoever it is they are more than likely "experimenting" and they are moving on from the Hive as test subjects to Humanity....just look at Jana-14 and her descend into "crafting". I believe we might see a new armory in the future and it will be sorrow based.
One aspect I was hoping to hear more thoughts about was the whole cursed thrall angle. Does the Necrochasm lore entry suggest cursed thrall were created here in our system only after the Hive interacted with the aperture?
@halberd-3291

I'm very curious about that as well. Because the nature of cursed thralls in and of themselves is very mysterious and we have no lore about them that I am aware of.
the new lore about enkaar is kinda interesting, the fact he was on the shore would say he once served oryx, but if before he was making weapons in a sort of ceremonial rite for crota, that adds some new ideas. was he serving only oryx and his children? or was he more of "free agent" among the hive, making weapons for ANYONE with a high enough standing or acts of triumph?
@halberd-3291

Seems to me like the lore tab implies he was at one point inside of the Cocytus apertures studying the keyholes, and then went back to the Hellmouth to create the Husk of the Pit/Necrochasm from this knowledge, and then at some point he went back to the outer areas of the system. He could have been working with both Oryx's Hive and Crota's at the same time as a free agent like you suggested. But at the same time, we know that Crota's reach went far beyond just the moon due to Spawn of Crota and Hidden Swarm being in the Prison of Elders back in D1. So he could have been present in the Tangled Shore to extend the reach of Crota's influence. Worth noting at his involvement with the Servant of the Betrothed on Titan also implies some kind of involvement with Savathun's Hive as well.

Dang, an exotic quest into an abandoned ship/space station with an unknown entity at it's center. Imagine hearing echoes of maddened screams, seeing ghosts of the maddened crew. Leading to a keyhole that could whisper the most tempting, horrifying and maddening things. You could possibly even hear screamed quotes from the weapons lore as echoes of the past. Similar to the darkness echoes in presage. If that wouldn't be a great addition to festival of the lost, I don't know what would be. Aside from the return of the crucible spider.
I have been itching for anything on Cocytus, was super excited for this video. :)
"Manifold" like the manifold on an engine. Its just a collection of passages for things to move through. So it's like a.. hallway full of doors.. and every door opens into other worlds.
This and the lore tab for osteo striga make me wish that next season would involve our guardian and shin hunting down hive using weapons of sorrow like the one enkaar had. Also, the weapons enkaar had looks more like a beloved turned into a weapon of sorrow.

I know it's a long shot, but Bungie should come up with a chronology for Destiny at some point after The Final Shape.
It’s likely the whispers were from Nezarec or Savathun, as both of them were in the Solar system at this time; although Nezarec was killed by Savathun, his mind was imprisoned in the VexNet, which he could have used to broadcast to wherever else a veiled tithe existed. A bone-chilling thought just hit me: Jana-14 is an Exo. Clovis Bray was inspired to make the Exos from communing with the K1 Artifact on the Moon. The Long Slow Whisper. It could be deeply entangled with Nezarec [and the Veil]. “Whispered gifts are promised blades that twist: a liar’s game.” --Nokris ]]]Yor read the shattered one’s journals.[[[

Hey Byf. I've been digging the the story deep dives into the Weapon's of Sorrow. My question is what about Jana-14? The person corrupted by Thorn, the maker of Necrotic Grips and Osteo Striga. Like where is she? Has she died? When she reappeared in thr lore during The Witch Queen it's been burning in my memory.

As far as we know, she is out there, last thing we knew about her, she was hiding somewhere in the city, possibly making more weapons of sorrow. I'm pretty sure that, just like Shayura's fireteam is tied to trials, and whenever new trials gear drops, we get new lore about them, whenever a new weapon of sorrow (or related exotic armor) drops, we'll get more lore about her.
Hey byf this makes me wonder if you can do a video on some of destiny's biggest mysteries that are yet to be solved and could possibly be solved in the final shape
Thanks Byf!
Honestly, at this point when I think of whispers, I think of Nezarec. I don't know if that would actually make sense in this case, but it's what was in my brain.
This sounds to me like if there is a secret exotic mission this season (probably will be) it might just be a weapon of sorrow
A byf video while I eat??? I love it
Perhaps these apertures are points of alignment. Places that on their own have small pockets to other locations, but when focused and aligned with say a dark triangle ship or perhaps the traveller itself more possibilities may awaken. The idea of the weapons of sorrow has always been something interesting in Destiny. For me Necrotic Grips were a sign that we were going to get a Necrosis subclass, but since strand exists I'm doubtful now. I also thought we'd get a psychosis class related to the nightmares, I doubt that now too.
Great vid! This is fascinating lore and opens up so much for what may come beyond TFS. As a Greek mythology nerd, just a heads up on the pronunciation of “cocytus,” it’s most commonly pronounced “co-kai-tus”(sometimes you’ll hear co-sai-tus, regardless, both roll off the tongue a bit easier than “cock-uh-tuss”)

I’m so happy my favorite symbiont hive gun gets some new relevance
I knew there was something off with the lore piece of nechrochasm, my clan called me crazy. I'm glad I can understand it a bit more
there was a video in which byf mentioned the river analogy in the past due to Acheron / Cocytus, I believe it was close to the lore of the glykon but I might be wrong. In that video byf talked also about some theories on how the throne worlds might be connected, I've been searching for that video for a long time but no luck. If anyone knows what I'm talking about please let me know which one is!
Byf, this is unrelated, but would you consider doing a video on just how powerful some exotics are in lore?
I think it’d be pretty neat if they added new exotic quests in that led to “Purifying” the weapons of sorrow into weapons of hope, like lumina
This might have been already cleared up. But what happened to that being the Eliksni talked of that watched over them, this was during Season of the Lost I believe :))
I know this is an older video, and I doubt anyone will see this, but I think it may have something to do with the Cthulhu mythos, be it the fourth party or the Nine, because in the lore entry at the end it says "it is so alien, and it's sendings so bafflingly malformed, that I fear this can only end in madness" for those familiar with the Cthulhu mythos and its monsters should be able to see the similarities with both how the monsters are being described and honestly how Xur looks, what with the tentacles coming out of his face

I might be late. But could you please share that voidlock build you used in the beginning? I wanna try it out.
The Last Word/Thorn and Cocytus represent two of my favorite lore 'side-stories' in all of Destiny, and I have to admit that I was *not* expecting Bungie to tie them together with the Necrochasm of all things. But I am here for it, and am super excited to see if this leads somewhere interesting! As an aside, as much as I want the Nine to be involved, I don't see it as terribly likely. One of the main motives of the Nine (whose own goals do not always align between them) has been to understand the Light. Spurring the creation of weapons to end Light doesn't seem like a strategy that's very conducive to this. Sure, there would be something to learn about the Light from how it fades, and we know thanks to the Red War that the Nine aren't above putting Guardians in harm's way to learn about the Light. The thread is there, but it's weak. Only time will tell for sure though, I suppose...
This is some really obscure stuff! 😮
Is there a chance the whispers were Oryx? Trying to use it to arrive in the system earlier and then after crota dies and the manifold ends has to take the long way? And that’s how he knows crota died Oryx being the one who instructed the other hive in the making the weapons of sorrow might make sense if he had already had the plan to become Touch of Malice.
Sounds unlikely that the Witness would have been the one whispering to the hive considering they were suggested using the cursed thrall power. One of the only original destiny enemies that didn't get a taken variant were cursed thralls so perhaps the Witness doesn't see them befitting of the final shape?

Cursed Thrall are just thrall that undergone some ritual. Taking them would probably result in a normal taken thrall.
I immediately thought of Nezarac. If they drove people to madness then that theory has some ground to stand on.
My new headcanon is that some strong acolyte, knight, or wizard was sittin in the lines with a really cool gun idea and took the chance to make it a reality. Imagine "OoOoh Master GunSmith, you should make an auto rifle that explodes things it kills, OoOoh."
This only further convinces me that the portal on the traveler is akin to the keyholes on that space station
It’s Starhorse, whinnying very softly into the cosmos, as a prank. Nailed it.
This video reminds me that we have yet to discover the voice behind the Veil, that kinda led the Witness race to corruption and becoming one.
Luminar, Thorn and the last word is like the trio: the good, the bad and the beauty
Here's a worrying thought; the Touch of Malice may be made out of Oryx, but it was designed by Eris Morn. So, was it actually designed by something else and whispered to Eris, and is that thing, as Byf asks, a Hive, the Nine, the Witness, or (as I suspect) something else?

Hope one day what was once enkarr's "Proto-Thorn" becomes a fully fleshed out weapon of sorrow we can wield. Could even be a sniper or lfr and be the first non-primary wep of sorrow
Heres a theory If Necrochasm is a weapon of sorrow That means we technically created it whether we creates the original or a copy like we did with thorn idk But that would imply that the Husk of the Pit white weapon we get is like an unfinished weapon of sorrow Which is interesting because if true would meand that we now know that 2 of the 4 known weapons of sorrow were crafted from other weapons I.e Rose and Husk Makes me wonder what weapon Eris used for Touch of Malice and Smg could have been used to created Ostieo Striga My moneys on the immortal due to how toxic it is even without a poisom aspect
If the whispers came from the cocytus, couldn't be from the other part of the nine? (The opposite part of those who help us)
Hi, so I’ve said it before in a previous video you’ve made. Actually pertaining around kelgorath. The judgment of Kelgorath. It breaks the norm for a weapon of sorrow and doesn’t have the visible poison or taken or cused thrall influence that the others do, but by technicality. The creation of that glave, does, in fact, follow the steps of creation of a weapon of sorrow. Food for thought?
Hmm, maybe something to learn in the upcoming post final shape episodes?
A little off topic, but I hope the other classes get more interactions between weapons and armor, like the warlocks do with necrotic grips. That or the other classes get their own necrotic gripnlike gauntlets, but with different unique effects
I think there's a really cool storyline for the Osmium King (Oryx's papa) to come back. It's a massive stretch given the narrative surrounding his death on Fundament, but the idea of fighting some Dark Souls-esque OLD old Hive god sounds so cool
I would've said its the Witness behind the whispers as its the source of the Darkness's corruption, but since Necrochasm is related to Crota, it pushes me more to him
Wild watching this today and being of the opinion the winnower is the actual darkness. Got to be the source of whispers with his link to Oryx no?
I definitely think it was the witness, the witness always whispers when he speaks, and every time he spoke to us directly I would describe it as whispering. Then again, the worm gods also whisper, as referenced in the name of the weapon “whisper of the worm”. Ahamkara also whisper, as described in the stories where the bones talk to someone.
Maybe Savathun’s apothecary and spire hold secrets found in the light to make our own, new weapons forged in Light like Lumina; Weapons of Bliss
“A wizard Corrupted by dredgen yor” guess that slipped passed editing lol
There is a character in the lore who is known for whispering. We carry a weapon named for that exact trait: The Whisper of Nezerec.
Now i want to know the details of hive betrothal and marriages or however it works for them
All I can think of if it's beyond our knowledge... is something like the King in Yellow. A being beyond our understanding and holds a play that drives everyone who reads it mad.
My knowledge on the lore specifically is spotty , but what are the chances cocytus aperture is the derelict. I don't know if we've ever even been given an idea of what it actually is, but was it not given to the drifter by the nine? It seems to have some form of portal aspect to it, it's involved with the nine, and has a link to the shadows of yor through drifter. Just an idea
Out of curiosity, do you the new necrochasm lore is a good or bad ret-con?
Hey just curious, who is shrike? Its byf playing with other id?
I think it came from Nezrac himself. The guy is a the “god of pain” and his corpse was on the moon. What was left of it anyway. Perhaps a piece had been left on the station and that is what drove the crew mad. We know that people they held the fragments of him in the past were driven mad
Regardless of how the sofia ended up, there are multiple open multi dimemtional portals, we could do something w that
The Witness’s involvement in the creation of the Weapons of Sorrow would most likely been shrouded in secrecy
Cthulhu about to come through and get a taste of Gjallarhorn
YESS. I am so glad you covered this lore. I commented about it on a previous video so it makes me happy to see my request fulfilled. I don’t personally think Crota was responsible for the whispers in the Cocytus keyholes, because Enkaar mentions him earlier as separate from them. Plus, considering Enkaar and Xyor for that matter essentially worked for Crota, why would they get knowledge from him from a separate phenomena? I think it’s either some other mysterious entity, like you suggested, or maybe even one of the worm gods, like Ur, the Ever-Hunger - the whispers are described as “gluttonous” after all. It’s connection to the gateway of Cocytus and the implications there are wild. Speaking of that, I wonder if these whispers could be related to the whispers associated with the Weapons of Sorrow themselves. They are known to whisper to their wielders, and also have a degree of sentience. Could these whispers all be from the same kind of source? Finally, I don’t think it’s impossible that Xyor’s “betrothed” and Enkaar aren’t the same character. One is an acolyte and the other is a Knight, and the timeline doesn’t seem to line up, but: Hive are known to be able to change shape, both growing larger and having adaptations to survive as well as changing forms after death, like Kelgorath. Plus, it’s worth remembering that it was both Xyor’s curse, and the bones of her betrothed that Azzir grafted to his Rose, that corrupted him and created Thorn. Maybe Xyor divorced with Enkaar due to him being defeated by Azzir due to the Sword Logic. And Enkaar himself wielded a “Proto-Thorn” and was known to create weapons of sorrow. What if they worked together to decipher the Cocytus whispers ti create Necrochasm (or rather Husk of the Pit) and corrupt Rezyl Azzir?

More weapons of sorrow, more connections to the strange soulfire energy known as corruption. Wonder if that'll become a new energy type in the future by this.
I had a theory that it might have to do with the aphelion possibly? I can’t know for sure though.
The idea of some third entity or even the Nine isn’t particularly far fetched in my opinion. With the final shape we are coming to the end of the light and dark saga of destiny and moving onto something yet unarmed for the franchise this could be bungie’s way of teasing the introduction of a new antagonist or force that we will face after the defeat of the witness. Or it could just be Crota but it’s at least interesting to consider :)

Seriously check it out if you want a good read
Yo I was not listening with that much attention but those whispers could have been Xol Will of Thousands
My theory so far is this. The whispers are coming from The Deep, and The Deep itself is the realm where the ancient powerful beings that resided in the ascendant plane before The Traveler and The Veil split. The ascendant realm was the main place of existence. A metaphysical abstract where form and consciousness were intertwined and essentially limitless. When the Traveler and Veil separated, it created a type of limbo between the physical and metaphysical where the ascendant beings fight and evolve. They've been the whispers in the minds of beings from the beginning of the universe. The Witness's victory in bringing the two back together will be the first stepping stone in opening up limbo and let the creatures of The Deep seep through. Including the TRUE Taken masters whose whispers revealed the knowledge to the Witness and later inspired Oryx to create The Tablets of Ruin. The final shape is the promise whispered to The Witness to manipulate them. He learns in the end that the promise is a deception. The final shape isn't letting them shape the world as they see fit. The final shape is about the key/means to opening the prison the ascendant beings have been trapped for billions and billions of years since the universe began in its Big Bang (I guess). The patsy who brings about the next great war where Guardians and allies have to save our universe from The Deep's ascendant beings. Okay, sorry for length. I'm just thorough with my thoughts is all.

There are beings that sound like they'd fit into that kinda environment perfectly described in awoken lore. The apheleon, and the harbingers, creatures either made of reverberating radiation and plasmas, or that give off said substances and waves, and seem to slip in and out of reality.

@@suruxstrawde8322 Could throw in beings composed of the elements themselves that have sentience once the Traveler and Veil's rejoining affects the universe's with metaphysical properties. Void, solar, arc, stasis, and strand manifesting agency and we have to relearn to channel them as sentient allies going forward and not just mindless tools to use as we please. More subclass specials where we summon elemental familiars that fight alongside and assist for a short period when dealing with extremely powerful ascendant enemies from The Deep. I'm just spitballing ideas now that seem fun to me. The whole light physical vs darkness memory/consciousness duality thing entertains me with ideas. 😁
Maaaaaaybe the whispers were from a currently unknown disciple of the Witness? I know it's completely unfounded, but with how mysterious the Cocytus apertures apparently are, you never know...
