Savathun's death doesn't end the deal. Every week, Nettle-11 sits cross-legged in the mire, within rocky outcroppings hidden by brush, waiting for the Hive to come. The first visit after Savathun's death is tense. They arrive with knives unfurled and charge. Nettle-11 refuses to fire a single shot. Instead, she has Dart initiate the data transfer.

"There will be an attempt to break the pyramid," she tells them from cover. "Will your faction object?"

The hive acol-no they are a Hunter now, simply snarls... and leaves. Dart's voice chirps, "I received a small data packet. Nathan will try to convince them that violence is unnecessary next time."

She tilts her head in a silent question.

"Nathan is their ghost. Or they call her Narthan, but Nathan is pretty close."

Nettle-11 nods. There was no information gained, but a transfer was successful. She hopes next time will be more successful.

Next week they ask about the Cabal.

"I'm not part of that operation." She says truthfully. "My job is tracking and control of Scorn operations. Do you have any information regarding that faction."

The Hive Hunter snarls. Dart gives a confirmation ping. She nods and leaves the Hunter, not turning her back to them quite yet.

Every week is a gamble. Will this be the time that they won't show up? Would another Hive take their place without the Witch Queen to order it so? Is Nettle-11 going to have to explain to Ikora Rey why she is not killing a specific Hive Hunter?

Nettle-11 isn't good at Gambit. But she is good at Crucible Control. She keeps the meeting spot hidden and monitored. The Hive Hunter has yet to lead other's to it. So she waits.

The fourth visit they speak.

"You do not fire upon me." They snarl. "Immaru wishes to know why."

"You may tell Immaru that as long as information continues to change hands, I will remain nonhostile to Hive ghosts... despite advisement stating otherwise."

The fifth visit they ask, "You always have more information, why do you continue this deal when it does not seem you profit from it?"

"Because my mission is to track and control Scorn. Not Hive Risen elimination."

"It can not be that simple."

"It is for me."

The sixth visit they arrive first, sitting cross-legged as they wait.

"I fail to understand you," they growl.

"What is your name?"

"I am Ad-Naur."

"Ad-Naur. You might be free of your worm, but you are still trapped in the Deep."

They hiss and get up to depart.

"When you are ready to see beyond the sword logic, you will know where to find me." Nettle-11 calls to them as for the first time, Ad-Naur leaves their back open.
