So today (after almost 30 GOTD) clears my one titan braincell finally asked "how and why did Oryx end up on Titan" so I started to Google instead of watching lore videos. I love the lore but tend to pick up the non seasonal mission lore like here and there and when I'm in the mood for it.
But I digress.
Before I got my answer I stumbled upon an old lore theory by a guardian named SethAdder.
In this post he theorized about Oryx's body landed on Titan instead of Saturn and had evidence that this might be the reason we engaged some hive knights on Titan with wings, and Oryx was the only knight with wings.

This is my personal first time I've stumbled upon a theory like this and it's right, I love it 🤘

1 commentaireI love how people argue (even now) that’s it’s physically impossible for Oryx to land there. It’s physically impossible for Oryx to even exist let alone all the other space magic going on but for some reason - we can’t let this slide lol

[url=http://www.Ishtar-collective.net/entries/royal-chase]Royal Chase[/url] This released during Season of the Hunt, the entry taking place during the end of Season of Arrivals. With what we now know from Ghosts of the Deep, the Monster they were tracking was Oryx’s body, which apparently began orbiting Saturn. When the Pyramid began to abduct Titan, the Darkness energy left within Oryx’s corpse reacted to it and was pulled into the anomaly. The Knights on Titan didn’t even have wings, the OP even thought SIVA had some involvement with the Hive.

Destiny is a fictional game, so logic doesn’t always have to apply here. However, when you kill Oryx, his body is drifting off into a clear direction. I wouldn’t call it far fetched to assume which planets orbit his body would get caught into from gravitational pull, being that the battle took place on the rings of Saturn. I can vividly remember first landing on Titan when D2 came out (Titan was my favorite destination, aesthetic-wise). The shattered green glass domes on Titan with Hive remains staining it was a dead giveaway, besides the fact that we’re on a moon of Saturn, where Oryx’s Dreadnought lingered over once before. I wasn’t really into how subtle they made this in Ghost of the Deep, since it being Oryx (a literal god-being that we destroyed). I would’ve expected more emphasis, or urgency on this. We literally disrupted a ritual of Oryx’s revival, I find it strange that the vanguard wouldn’t excavate the remains of Oryx the way they did with Savathun (maybe they did! I haven’t kept up with the lore).

he even predicted the never ending speculation that siva will come back

I already called out oryx landing on titan during the red war. Many people did.
