The Hive are as Human as we are

So recently i was reading thought the book of sorrows (Great stuff btw) and i would like to share some opinions, this is gonna be a long winded text so if you dont like reading do yourself a favor and ignore this post. Its such an amazing story since the beggining how the proto-hive species were a kinda more broken or vulnerable than us human, their life expentancy was max 10 years and they lived in a planet where everything was trying to kill them akin to some insects in our yard. And yet they lived, they wondered and dreamed about their futuro and goals. when the last osmium king reached his 10 years he started becoming mad and his court started turning on him, leaded by Taox the main mother they exiled the 3 daugther of the current king. Xi ro, the youngest and braver of the 3, who wanted to become a knight, Sathona the one with cunning, and Aurash the older with the most curiosity and determination. Lots of things happens and they spend almost 5 years (IIRC) in exile when they realize the harsh reality of their mortality, living for vengeance to retake what was theirs. When they went to the core of their planet and found the Leviathan just to tell them that they should turn back and live as they has been living, strugling, fighting, clinging and dying. That moment is when its shown to us that the proto hive especialy Aurash has the will to fight against the nature and even the universe itself to continuing existing, thats something we as a specie has been doing since our dawn. They take the worns, bunch of things happens again (you should really read the book of sorrows) and Aurash now Oryx decided to became an agent of the deep to guarantee the survival of his species, his sisters which he dearly loved and made a system where they could feed the worms inside them, at one time he even felt he was missing something in his life and he made Crota, Ir Halak and Ir Anuk. At the end if we see what the traveller did to us and the worm god did to the hive, we the Guardians and humanity are just the other side of the same coin in a war we are waging for a power or powers beyond our comprenhension in the galaxy. For now we are in a winning streak against the ones that wants us dead but our ass had been handed to us in the past (The Colapse, The losing of the moon, etc), will we defy gods and even the universe itself to continue demanding our existence? we'll see. Bungie should and i mean NEED to put the grimoire ingame, just put some concept art slideshow and some voice acting (Oryx VA and other) to tell the story. No need to put tons of SFX or CGI keep it simple as an example this little indie game Darkest Dungeon does amazing story telling with just VA and stills. Hope you folks like it and be brave guardians

  • " The first comes in a shadow.  A window becomes a door.  An ebb becomes a gulf.  The second comes in bones.  Tithes offering feasts, carrying laws.  A path torn, minds shattered.  The third does not come alone. It cannot. Our truths woven into their being, desires beyond our own.  The first needs the second to fail, the third needs the first to succeed. The second will never cease, yet the first always prevails. The third is born of all outcomes. Unless, all ends flow from the same pit." We are the first The hive are the second The vex are the third
