So I’ve been enjoying the new Witch Queen expansion and Season of the Risen, and I’ve been having lots of fun, but I am confused on one part of the story of the Witch Queen. So we know that Savuthan got the light when she died, which brought her back from the dead. Though the thing I am confused on is the Ghost that gives her the light. Why does the ghost that revives her already look like a hive ghost? I saw in a video that in her dying moments she was worthy of the light because it is just the worms that make her bad, but if no one has the light at this point in time, then how does the ghost have hive features. My theory is that the traveler wanted her to have a ghost that was so loyal(unlike Fynch) that they looked like they were part of the Hive. What do you guys think?

My understanding is savathun was selected to be a light bearer millions of years ago but the witness tricked her into accepting the worm god, making her no longer worthy. So that ghost has actually been waiting for a long time to bind with her.
