BUNGIE! Help with lore question?

I read the Books of Sorrow, and I have questions for clarification due to recent arguments. In these books they mention separating their deaths, so that when killed they can resurrect. Oryx and his sisters all have this. When Oryx kills his sisters to gain power over his worm, and it says true deaths in the sword world, which world is this exactly? It mentions later that at least 1 sister resides in her throne world, so did he simply kill her physical being? Because she was resurrected later by Oryx when he spoke her name through war. Finally, if an ascendant Hive has their death in a separate world, but they're killed in that world are they dead for good? If not, then Oryx couldn't possibly be dead forever, and then raises the question of are the Hive unbeatable? I really need Bungie on this one, but anyone in the fan base willing to help would be much appreciated too!

  • Now I think the reason oryx thought they died true deaths was because of his limited power and understanding. Now with what we as guardians did, in the book oryx clearly listed out everything that had to be done to make his death permanent. Now unless he has a spare echo roaming around somewhere, oryx is truly gone.

    • They were killed in Oryx's Throne World, not their own. Thus they did not truly die. By the sounds of it, that the manner in which they were killed locked them inside their Throne World until an act corresponding with their nature was committed by their sibling. (Of course it is always possible Oryx made up this story to bolster his reputation. As Savathûn says "these books are full of lies".)

        • Try asking a senior member of the "collective of knowledge" group. They usually have some good info on this stuff.

          • It is the throne worlds. Like when we killed crota during TDB quests, he wasn't truly dead. Only when we invaded his world and killed him in the raid was he truly dead.

              You'll find you answers easier in #Destiny. Better yet, check out (one of) Charlemagne's Lore thread https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/131785194/0/0
