Destiny 2 Lore - Xivu Arath's Banishment & how it changes everything for the Hive!

Ойындар

Destiny 2's Lore and Story from the Season of the Witch shows the moment when Eris Morn banished Xivu Arath from her Throne World. The consequences of this choice are far-reaching for the Hive and their god of war. Xivu Arath's Throne World now sits empty and the ramifications of that choice will change Destiny's Story forever.

    I feel no one seems to talk much about how Eris Morn's actions once again pull us further away from the Dark Timeline. In the Dark Timeline, according to Elsie Bray, Eris Morn became the new Witch Queen. With her current actions, she REJECTED all the powers she could have had.

    While the most likely outcome is that either Tolan will move in, or more likely another powerful Hive in the future, I'm thinking it's also possible that the Throne World might just fall apart if left unoccupied long enough. Like threads in clothing slowly breaking and becoming undone, or parts of the earth slowly being eroded by water flows. If it's not filled up or found and destroyed it's possible that it'll simply wash away.

    ​@@Noblesix84as far as we know, throne worlds can decay to a certain degree, but they cannot fully undo themselves. Drifter has access to a vacant throne world where he pulls the taken he uses for Gambit, he has access, but not control or ownership over it, as it is vacant. Now we also know that smaller throne worlds, like the mindbender's, cannot be sustained without it's creator's will and end up collapsing upon themselves. This leads me to believe that a throne world can only remain by itself, uncontrolled, if it's large enough or has been controlled by a powerful enough being, while smaller throne worlds do not have the raw energy necessary to maintain themselves.

    ​@voltus20 if you're referencing Bright Side of a Bad Idea, it's pretty clearly _not_ a throne world being discussed: "He's secured a pocket of the Ascendant plane. Not a throne world, nothing that grand, but a big enough chunk to matter-and he's gone and caged an army." I believe this would have been part of the Nine's gift of the Haul (Malphur assumes Drifter set it up himself, but he's obviously seen the Haul and never mentions the Nine, so this may just be his own misguided conclusion). However, I'm not entirely certain on that point.

However, she’ll need help, and while she doesn’t trust the Guardians or Mithrax, she is desperate and might turn to Eido for help. This could potentially be a plot next season

I do see Eramis being more relevant *after* The Final Shape, maybe in the second episode, as it seems to be related to the scorn, and one of the big things she feared from the witness was how he was turning her old friends and allies into scorn. Maybe there could be some tie in there.

    It’s important to note that Toland’s quote wasn’t referring to a Throne World vacancy. He was referring to a vacancy in the Hive power structure. When Oryx was killed in the Taken King campaign he was banished to his own Throne, trapped within until he could return to physical form. This is why Eris sent us to kill Alak-Hul, as he was a prime candidate to take up the reigns while Oryx was indisposed. Honestly this entire situation had better be explored in greater detail in the coming weeks, because it’s bad enough that the banishment was lacklustre. We have no idea whether Xivu’s connection to the Throne has been severed entirely, or if she simply cannot return to it. Even that fundamental distinction has wildly different knock on effects.

    Hiraaks, the Mindbender, was just a random Fallen once until he fell into the Hellmouth and came back talking Hive. He also built a small Throneworld out of Cayde-6. Mara, relying on a Wish for a Throne, proves one alternative route; you can do other things to make a Throneworld, you don't just have killing or a specific action. Caiatl, with help from Eris, Osiris, and Toland, could move to claim the Throne of War, and turn it into the equivalent of Valhalla. Basically... Cabal Heaven. That's if everything goes to plan for this route.

    Xivu being overthrown by a former subordinate would be very interesting. The hive pyramid scheme has never been disrupted that badly before. Despite being essentially an entire civilisation of power hungry backstabbing nutters, the Hive have been surprisingly stable and loyal within their factions. If someone managed to take Xivu's position, that could spark a massive internal conflict as individual high power hive suddenly realise that being a new Hive god is practically possible.

    My question is how permanent the banishment is. Obviously Xivu is not as cunning as Savathun or even Eris. So I don’t expect to her to out think this banishment. But If there is some way to regain access to her throne world, Xivu will kill everything and everyone in between her and it. I could be missing something, my knowledge on the awoken and Mara and her throne world is very limited, so it could have proven that once the connection is broken it is permanent, but if we don’t have certainty here, its more than a little possible someone will try.

    Im curious if Xivu will make a new throne world. She's still very powerful and a devout follower of the sword logic. She was banished from her throne world specifically, and not the ascendant space. Itd be interesting to see if Eris gets a throne world too for following the sword logic and becoming the strongest hive god for a moment. Also wondering if it would be possible for Xivu to try and reclaim her throne world, thatd make for an interesting dungeon/raid.

    I like the thought, yet it begs the questions: is the throne world tied completely to the entire being of its creator and is it even at all possible for an ascendant Hive to possess two throne worlds. The throne worlds act as not only refuge for the being to regain power but also a space completely composed and subjugated by the Will of its creator. For instance, Savathun at all times and each point in her throne world is aware of what is being done by all things, thus her throne world is fully tied to her mind, ordinarily if it was only an aspect of her mind it would be plausible to think it too much of a demand on her psyche, but the thought of the throne world being an extension of her being: She is the throne world and the throne world is her (hence her awareness even in death), is a much more desirable viewpoint. The same can be said for Mara, Oryx and Crota as well as they all enacted their wills/logic upon their throne worlds. So with Xivu losing her TW, one could say that she was cut off from a significant portion of her power which could mean the next person who claims her throne world could claim that power as well. This thought presents a problem though: the original thought you presented about Xivu making a new one. Since Eris rejected the Sword logic entirely in the banishment, its likely the claim of the TW is no longer based in Sword Logic, but Vengeance which is owed to Eris morn. One thought that is in question for me is that if Eris’ Vengeance can be its stand alone logic since Sword Logic somewhat dictates that to earn more power one must die and kill to reach the next stage of power?

    Something that immediately jumped out to me was when Ikora spoke to us over the radio in the HELM and she said something like “we can deal with Xivu later, for now we need to stop the Witness” which makes me think next season will just be about preparing to enter the portal, we’ll do Final Shape, and then it will be one of the episodes that follows (Heresy?) where we get back to dealing with Xivu. Which would kinda stink to delay such a big event for so long, but also it would be good to not defeat such a major character in the next season or just as a side-deal in Final Shape.

    The chances of Torobatl being recoverable seem miniscule to me: the idea that Xivu Arath didn't turn it into a War Moon seems unlikely. So the Cabal are truly homeless right now. If the allied forces of the guardians, Cabal and Eliksni were able to seize control of it, surely it would be a fitting place for the Empire of War that is the Cabal to call a more permanent home? That being said, the only reason that seems even vaguely reasonable is because of Caiatl: she is the General-Empress who has shown that she can be diplomatic and level-headed with the right counsel. Caiatl would be one to allow those like Eris Morn and Mara Sov to attempt to cleanse the throne world before they moved in, otherwise they would all just become Xivu Arath's adopted brood, really.

  • @ASpaceOstrich

    I suspect that this will be the thing that finally shatters Xivu's belief in the Sword Logic, and that she will now be willing to do things that she previously would have considered heresy. Noticably, there's a large, very powerful hive asset in the Sol system that has been left unclaimed. The dreadnought. Xivu never took it before because she had not earned it. It wasn't hers to take. With an episode called Heresy planned for post Final Shape, I suspect Xivu will be the threat for that season. As for Xivu's throne. What's happening to it depends a lot on what exactly "being banished" entails. It could be that its still perfectly intact but impossible to enter. It could be that Xivu can't enter it, but her forces or other forces can and it's now a battleground for warring former subordinates who are taking their shot at the top position. It could be that being banished has the same effect that being dead does, and her throne is collapsing like the Mindbenders did. In that case, we have no idea how long it will take to collapse. Savathun's hasn't collapsed but she's also using the Wellspring to keep it intact. Mara's has begun to collapse and after only a short time it was almost indistinguishable from the environment that makes up the rest of the ascendant plane. Hive lore has also been a bit... inconsistent recently, mostly around Savathun having access to power she shouldn't. Everything we know from Forsaken era hive lore says that her Throne should probably be collapsing into the rest of the ascendant plane, but everything we know from Forsaken era hive lore also says that Savathun can't gain power from cunning, Savathun is no longer a hive god at all since she's gotten rid of her worm, and that Xivu should probably starve to death within a few weeks or months of such a large defeat, just like how Oryx was basically on his deathbed back in D1.

Third: Hey Byf, I had this question that's been in my head for a long time, IS it possible that we guardians can have our own Throne world, given all that we done and after what happened after this season's finale? or Can Erin have her own TW with all the Tithes she collected?

    I kind of think Eris messed up just a bit. Sure, she banished Xivu from her throne world, but that might not necessarily mean Xivu can no longer traverse the Ascendant Plane, nor does it mean that she could not create another throne world. The new one might not have the same level of logistical support as her old one, but it would put her back on the immortality board once more. And all she would probably need is one Guardian having a bad day to do it, if the Mindbender is any indicator...

    I have two things. Firstly, couldn’t Xivu just create another ascendant plane in a bargain to feed her worm? It’s stated in lore that the worm gods had a huge part in the throne worlds being built, so couldn’t Xivu have this happen? Secondly, I wonder if The Witness will have any part in aiding Xivu, possibly getting a throne world a eeing as she is his strongest general for him. Whatever it may be, I want there to be consequences, and Xivu come at us being stronger than ever. I personally hate how Bungie essentially is writing Xivu out without ever showing her in game without any sort of dialogue or character arc of some grand degree.

Not only has she been evicted from her throne world, but the one hive most likely to be in a position to take over it, the leviathan eater, is dead at our hands too. Also, I really enjoyed the fight against him. And as drifter always suggests, I brought a sword, specifically the lament. Turns out I had the stronger sword. One thing I think would be interesting is to have us navigate our way into Xivu's throne world via the ley lines. I imagine there'd be a lot to learn about the witness aligned hive in there.
