#throne world

Cabbage

Another season started a few weeks ago so my thoughts came back too.

Why Throne World is full of cabbages?

I haven't kept up with D2 lore so I was hoping you could help me out if you have time. Do we know what happened to Savathûn's throne world after Heresy? Like, is Fynch still stuck there? Are Guardians still around? What would happen if the Young Wolf (who Savathûn seems to blame for Echo!Oryx's death) entered her throne world - would they be expelled or attacked on sight? Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Savathun's Throne World is permanently kept around through the Wellspring by using the Light. Nothing has changed about it in any way; it's still there, it's still accessible to anyone, Fynch is still there as far as we know, and we're still technically canonically fighting off the Scorn and Lucent Hive to keep control of the Wellspring. It's not entirely known right now what Savathun is currently doing and if she's been returning to the Throne World recently or not. She doesn't seem to care too much about what we're doing there, that we know of, though it's always hard to say with Savathun what she may be planning.

I had the pleasure of being an artist of @swordlogiczine.

Everyone made phenomenal art in both the visual and written realms.

I envisioned what the throne room would look like for Xivu.

Every step taken, every bullet fired, every thought whispered... I keep and count them all.

So post act 2 savathûn and Xivu arath has gotten more dialogue in the nether.

Most of this is simply savathûn trying to convince Xivu to give up the sword logic and while it's all very interesting there is one conversation that I find most interesting

It goes like such

Savathûn: " I needed you off the board, little sister. I knew that you would hide and lick your wounds without your throne. It kept you from invading the traveler. It kept you away from the witness's failure. Now I can extend a hand in familial love. Now that you need protecting. I can protect you."

Xivu arath: "YOU REFUSED MY LOVE WHEN YOU GUIDED OUR HERETIC-SISTER TO HER THRONE. I REJECT YOU."

Now there is a lot to cover

Firstly savathûn's almost patronising words to Xivu, an older sibling unwilling to see a little sibling as an adult, just someone who needs protecting

And secondly Xivu's furious reply, rejecting savathûn love, the interesting part is what she claims as the reason for the rejection. "YOU REFUSED MY LOVE WHEN YOU GUIDED OUR HERETIC-SISTER TO HER THRONE."

She claims that savathûn helping Eris cut her from her throne world, and in the process, creating Eris's Throne world the high heresy, Is the reason for Xivu's rejection.

And did you notice what Xivu said "OUR HERETIC-SISTER" Xivu still thinks of Eris as a sister, a heretic sister but so is Savathûn and arguable Xivu herself is a heretic at this point, I was wondering about how Xivu's opinion on Eris had changed since Season of the witch and I am so happy that bungie mentioned it.

Also I absolutely love seeing the loving side of savathûn this episode
