There is a witch queen quest quest, called "of queens and worms" you sould play it, or react to it, it's integral to the story

while not INTEGRAL to the overarching narrative, it is also highly recommended that you either get a team to take you through or watch a full clear of Vow of the Disciple.

Well with a curse like that I guess I have to like the video

So, Savathun's Worm, wasn't just removed because she needed it to use the light. The worms, are these sorts of Parasites, that urge the Hive to kill. They feed off of this process. If the hive don't kill, the worms explode, or consume the hive host. So, the hive need to kill to survive. This, wasn't exactly ideal for her. It was also because, the Worms, are connected to the Worm Gods. And in turn, to the "Entity in THe Darkness". Savathun, here was splitting herself away from it, and alligning with the traveller. So she could plot independently.

Well both, to be fair. Their worms required them to follow their "nature" (hers being cunning/deception) but also required an ever-increasing flow of "tribute" (proving themselves through Sword Logic), which is why Savathûn devised the pyramid (ha!) scheme of tribute.

Omg so many things happened during the recording that I forgot about being trapped in the box!! We were all in such a chaotic mood 😂 You did a great job capturing the first half of the day with this episode 🫶

It’s amazing to see new guardians joining in the fight! We’ll see you guys in the Final Shape next month!

For those who are old enough to remember, Fynch is voiced by Ian James Corlett. He played Bob in season 3-4 in Reboot and also Cheetor in Beast Wars/Machines. When I did the campaign I was like "Who the hell was that?" and after some quick search I was like "Ohhhhh Bob!" .

Damn i caught this 27 seconds after it was uploaded, LETS GOOOOOOOO. Im hyped for this. Hope youre well Terra!

I'm so happy to see you running with Becca. You're in for a great ride

My favorite DLC this is when bungie really started the bullet train going for the overarching narrative. Savvy was just incredible and I still remember seeing the initial reveal of hive lightbearers, it was incredible…

Aw this is only part 1, Im assuming you've already finished the whole thing. But I cant wait to see your reactions to some of the shit that happens later on when all the pieces start to click into place. Like you said Witch Queen has some fantastic writing, it both adds new mysteries and questions to the mix, but it also answers SO MANY questions we've had for years, and it manages to have like 3? Twists on what you probably expect to happen, but all of them work and make sense in context. And in a weird way it also simplifies so much, in a good way. As im sure you've seen by the end of the campaign theres still a bunch of questions and stuff leading up to the final shape, but whos and what side, and what the light and dark are and who all big players are are very clearly defined. Can't wait to see you get even further, the stage Witch Queen sets is great, and its one fun ramp all the way to final shape.

BECCA!!!! I MISS YOUR REACTIONS!! So happy to see you guys are all friends. Warms my heart.

46:42 I love to see so many people just brute force that thing without really looking at how the symbols are placed xD😂

10:00 Reference to a sunset strike, Savathuns Song on Titan. RIP Taeko.

I'm so excited for the second part! Love how well you and your friends bounce off each other :>

46:50 A bit late but the solution to that puzzle is the three symbols that disrupt the pattern the other columns shared two symbols are completely different to give you a starting point.

I’m so hyped about this reaction

Glad to see you playing together again. Heck yeah.

Oh what a good place for a cliffhanger, I cannot wait to see the reactions to the rest of this story!

35:25 "Darkness remembers; Light forgets" is basically the theme of the entire Witch Queen expansion (even bleeding into the first couple seasons). Some lore released alongside the Witch Queen launch is a series of Ikora's memos and communications with Hidden agents trying to understand the fundamentals of Light and Darkness: It all means one thing. Darkness remembers. Light forgets. It is about memory. Memory and forgiveness. ... The psychometer lets us glimpse ancient memory, not because the Light cannot remember, but because it chooses to relieve us of memory's grief. The Glykon Volatus is infested with the residue of evil's touch because the Darkness is there, and the Darkness remembers the suffering aboard. Haunted, like the Nightmares on the Moon. ... *_This is why the Light wipes away memory. It strikes away the pain of the past to break the pattern. To create the possibility of grace._* *_This is why the Dark remembers. We need to remember how we were hurt, so we can avoid being hurt again._* ... We need the Darkness to avoid being preyed upon by those who see Light as an opportunity to feed. But we need the Light too. The Light is the hope of grace through the grace of hope. The possibility to be more than what reason allows us. Because by acting unreasonably, we escape reasonable limits. www.ishtar-collective.net/records/the-hidden-dossier

About the travelers reason for blessing savathun and her brood theres not really a reasoning behind it. As a quick explanation, while the pyramids/The hive use what is called Sword Logic (Social Darwinism, The strongest survive). The Traveler uses whats called Bomb Logic, which is much more complex, not rigid like the sword logic, kinda the opposite. The traveler looks for complex outcomes with several parts working together which is why the traveler can sometimes thrive on chaos. This bomb logic we use is the reason why we learned to ally with many we thought enemies. Savathuns resurrection is a chaotic move but this makes it possible for other outcomes that seem complicated, even if she is a villain in our eyes. This logic is not as simple as the sword logic, which aims to reduce the universe to the strongest. Byf has a few of videos on this so i recommend them if you wanna understand how both sword and bomb logic work! :D

FINALLY. I was waiting for this one. These next few seasons are going to be SO GOOD. I'm assuming you've already played through the whole thing, so i'll put a little bit of context here. The traveller as we know it, honestly, is incredibly selfish as a being. Yes, it gives gifts, and power, WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT BENEFITS FROM IT. The traveller has always acted out for its own safety, and has always picked itself over anything else. The Eliksni Whirlwind, Our Collapse. Savathun. It runs when it can't fight. It shuts down when it can't run. It chooses more "guardians" when it believes they can help it survive. Whoever it is, never matters, if it believes they will act to help it. End of the day, this isn't actually told in the story, but it is VERY heavily implied. I think it is incredibly hard to trust the traveller, but at the same time, we need it to survive. The concept of being "Worthy" i believe is flawed. It is not about proving any worth, but proving that you can be trusted to serve and protect it. If you can be useful. PS. Still watching, so, I may leave like, 15 comments answering different questions in the video.

I'm impatient and want the part 2 as soon as possible! All jokes aside, you are in for a ride with the seasons of this expansion. Edit : It's so funny to me at the Altar of Reflection puzzle is just "spot the difference" and so many people I watch or play with didn't notice lol.

YEEEEESSSSSSSS TERA VIDEO I stalked your account yesterday and was sad I am now happy

I've been enjoying your Destiny series! Time for me to sit back and check out this one :)

We gotta wait for the next part ahhhhhh

My #1 Favorite Campaign “Forsaken” My #2 Favorite Is Definitely “The Witch Queen” Forsaken was an extremely good story & Witch Queen was also extremely good but also insanely interesting cuz of how everything in the campaign is of Lore & So Witch queen has a insanely good story & lore & revealing more lore that was hidden as well lol.

Ngl I kinda love it when you have your friends with you like you do here and during Shadowkeep. I hope y'all play Lightfall together too!

The mission on the pyramid ship ia actually so good.

Shooting for Saturday but it is a LOT of footage to edit through!

Yes the one thing about destiny is you will get many, many, many threads but very few of them get picked back up, and usually not for a while, I’ll make sure not to spoil anything I know! Can I mention the mechanic to that “puzzle” in reflection? There’s not much to it, just take a closer look at them is all I’ll say for now 😊 Also I know you aren’t super interested in changing your build but this expansion is where Void 3.0 was introduced, could be some fun messing around with Void! If you have Briarbinds unlocked you could use that, just use your rift and you get a little friend who helps you, no worries no stress, just tons of buddies and rifts!

Here’s the good stuff :) hope you enjoyed!

The stealing Traveler thing made me think of Gru stealing the Moon.

Did you happen to save the VODs for the times when you were playing Destiny 2? I see you have a Deep Stone Crypt weapon. Id love to see how a new light tackles and understands that raid.

Part 2 here we come

So the hive were always supposed to be guardians. Suvathun says she made a mistake following her sisters into the deep. Once they became the hive the traveler who was looking for then went "well there goes that idea." Then went looking for something else. The traveler then found us. We are the backup.

The Traveler blessed countless civilizations with its gifts, including the Harmony (a federation spread across ten planets orbiting a black hole, which the Hive made extinct). Riis (the Eliksni/Fallen home world) was just the last one it visited before us. The Hive and the Black Fleet of pyramid ships have both been chasing it across galaxies for billions of years (yes, billions, with a B). Every time it stops to uplift a civilization, its enemies come on its heels to wipe them out, and it flees. But for some reason, in Sol, when the Black Fleet arrived, _it did not run._ It stayed. And for some reason, our enemies left without completely wiping us out - something they've never done before. And though it was badly damaged, the Traveler still created the Ghosts - something it had never done before. Something is different this time.

Nyooo but the chest! *cries in loot goblin* But that aside, also enjoying this storyline with the Witch Queen.

If you haven't you should go back and watch videos of community reactions to the reveals, specifically the Beyond Light reveal where we found out we were getting a Stasis subclass, and the Witch Queen reveal where we found out about Hive Ghosts

i still say we messed up attacking savathun first, as a newly rezzed lightbearer savathun didnt even know she was savathun anymore, she couldve ben the most powerful ally we ever had against the witness

The funniest part was they released the trailer for Witch Queen about her and her hive wielding the Light, and then right after they did the trailer for the last season "hey btw we're gonna help savathun lose her worm :)"

You must play the raid from this expansion, an all time banger for me

This is me after the video: NOOOOO! I WANTED TO SEE YOUR REACTION TO [THING[!!!!! Fine I'll wait for part 2.

The Witch Queen is still an incredible expansion, and I'm sad that the Hive Lightbearers have been mostly absent from the game in recent times - they were a really cool enemy type. Savathûn was also an incredible antagonist, and I hope we can see her return in the future. Anyways, I figured it's time to talk about a bit more gameplay history since we're here - the Witch Queen is, of course, where weapon crafting was introduced. If you've been playing any of the seasonal content that came out since then you probably already know how it works - get enough red-border/Deepsight variants of a given craftable weapon (the standard for most Legendary weapons is 5, but some oddballs occasionally require less) and you unlock its pattern, allowing it to be shaped at the Enclave. Back when crafting released, however, there were a lot more hoops to jump through than there are now - namely, I can remember these things as being major differences between then and now: -When crafting was first introduced, you had to actually spend time getting kills with a red border weapon before you could extract its Deepsight essence. Now you can just dismantle the weapon or extract the pattern progress when inspecting it. -At Witch Queen's launch, weapons without crafting patterns could drop with red borders. This did serve something of a purpose at the time, because... -When crafting originally released, there were a bunch of different materials you needed to collect in order to create certain weapons/perks for the weapons. Those have since been sunset and replaced with Enhancement Core/Glimmer costs, except for Ascendant Alloys, which are a special resource used in shaping enhanced perks and *maybe* some exotics? -Crafted weapons do need to be leveled up before you can get all of their perks - st launch the only way to do this was by getting kills, but since then Bungie has added the ability to buy weapon levels using Glimmer/enhancement cores. This expansion is also where Origin Traits were introduced - these being sort of "third perks" assigned to weapons based on what activities and (if applicable) what weapon manufacturer they came from. They tend to be less impactful than standard weapon perks, but still are a very welcome addition to the game - one I believe was worth the sacrifice of masterworked weapons being able to generate guaranteed Orbs of Power, because that used to be a thing but had to be removed to accomodate Origin Traits. anyways that's it. sorry for making this whole wall of text for some things a lot of people watching this video will already be intimately familiar with, I just wanted to share this.

So, they don't really explain this in the campaign, and they do it more through the Lore Entries. The Hive Ghosts were the same as our ghosts, created at the same time. Savathun and Imarru, pressured them into it, but, some were also tortured. Used for experiments. all the fun stuff. Alongside this, was the fact that they were from, and work for the Traveller. It's hard for them to know that the traveller wants the Hive with light, and not do it, if that makes any sense?

By the way, the scar thing you guys saw in the Mirror Room, was part of a triumph involving Parasite. Not important to the campaign.

I actually enjoy this n u. Ur actually into the story n patient to listen to wats goin n also tryin to figure out wats goin on. If u keep doin this u got urself a sub. N tht girl wit u wit the assistance A+ bc even I didn’t kno either about the cabal msg. Bt yea I’m excited watch if this is wat ur doing bc a lot of people jus skip the story n i dnt understand y, it’s like y even play the game if all u wanna do is shoot bc it’s a shooter game.

This is me before watching this video. I have been *WAITING* for you to get to this one. *gets lunch*

This is the only Dlc i dont have, besides Final Shape and the Dungeon keys, and i regret not having it, My Titan would be Eating his Subclass crayons through his Knight esc Armor from Eververse

This is IT. In the post campaign Savathun says some stuff that is still relevant. While some stuff is basically confirmed, many of it is still not One thing of Note: Savathun experimented with Light so many times before. In the campaign you hear about corrupted Light in her Throne World. It is a nod to the strike Savathuns Song where she kills Guardians to make Light Crystals out of them. She really had this planned for a loooong time She even experimented with Ghosts before and after she got the Light And watching this way after you have all this context really makes the lines even better. This truely was the best campaign story so far Also I am so excited for you to see Ghost of the Deep soon Also ayyy, a fellow Music enjoyer :D

Could it be that your reactions are partially or completely fake? There is solid evidence of this in this video. In this video you play the Witch Queen campaign on Legendary for the "first time", however, in the first two missions (maybe in later ones too, I'll have to keep watching the video), the loot chests that should normally spawn after some specific encounters do not spawn These chests just don't spawn if you've already looted them once Means at least the first two missions in the video are definitely not your first runs Sorry, but I know the game a little more and I noticed that immediately, maybe it's just a few missions and the rest is real, hopefully... Edit: Ok, chests spawned in the third mission But that still means you had already done the first two missions But whatever, like your reaction anyway, keep it up!

So I actually touched on this waaayy back! I started playing witch queen in 2022 during season of the plunder. The game forced me into many missions against my will on logging in and I had NO IDEA what was happening or who was important other than the name savathun. I am playing on my original character from 2022 so that is likely why the extra chests did not spawn on the first couple of missions, hope this helps!
