Owl Sector Theory

Ok so today something called Owl Sector started taking over this game as an arg. Since then we as a community have been searching everywhere for what Owl Sector could be. I started looking through the grimoire for anything that mentions owls but couldnt find anything. But in Rasputin 5, a subroutine called " Loki Crown" is mentioned. In the subroutine, it mentions how if people are under a serious threat, Rasputin will start a "noetic release". Noetic is defined as "relating to mental activity or intellect". Of course the 5 new boons guardians are finding in the game(brilliance, splendor, magnificence, glory and fortitude), are all states of the mind and intellect. Now back to the name Loki Crown. Bungie is kinda known for their creative naming, and with Rise Of Iron having a Norse feel to it, the Norse god Loki might be involved. According to Norse mythology, Loki was a mischevious deity that could turn himself into a bird( sometimes falcon sometimes owl, like owl sector.). So Loki is both an owl and a god that likes starting messes, i.e, having a whole community search for some arg. This is pretty loosely based speculation, but I think Rasputin sensed humanity is in danger and started that "noetic release" to warn us of an up and coming threat. Maybe SIVA? This is my first serious lore post so feel free to tell me what your thinking or what i might have said wrong here. Thanks. Edit: Wow this really blew up over night. I'm glad you guys see this makes sense and hope we find this whole thing out soon.

  • Additionally, I'd like to note that if anyone has recently checked the Owl Sector site, there is a report log that states that the Owl Sector observatory is at the highest point in the Tower and it overlooks the City in the distance. So I believe the Owl Sector will be a new area of the Tower that will be added in Rise of Iron.

      • I think it's a way of making the SIVA outbreak make more sense in game. The "active" guardians were infected by this stuff, and it caused enough of a distraction that we couldn't guard against the initial SIVA outbreak. So the devil splicers were able to take control of the plague lands, and whatever else, without our intervention. The infection itself could be SIVA-related or not, but I think it's just to make the dramatic landscape changes in ROI seem a little more reasonable (i.e., less abrupt) lore-wise.

                    Guys, the fortitude log on owl sector updated saying how we are gladly spreading this plague to fellow guardians.. We are no better than the fallen in the plaguelands!! Maybe they'll update the site to say that our willingness to spread the disease is a side effect of having said disease. Edit: At least I hope they do. Our job is to save humanity, not potentially disable its last defense (guardians).

                      I'm wondering what would happen if an I infected person ran around the dust palace. Could they find something related to the lore and stuff? And also someone with the viruses should do it as well.

                    • So i have read around 5 posts relating to this new Owl thingy and no one said anything about where the name even came from. OWL Sector? You what mate? Where did this term come up? Where do you find BUNGIE related information on it? I saw a site tracking the spread. Is it a third party site ? Is it an official Bungie site? Whats even going on here ? Fact no fiction please. A recap on what happened and how the information on the OWL Sector was obtained.

                      • While noetic as you said means of or relating to the intellect, this outbreak doesn't jive with the purpose of Loki Crown which was to prevent the traveller from leaving by any means possible. Below is the exert from the grimoire card in question. [quote] If available ISR and WARWATCH indicates imminent [O] departure >then [O] departure compromises human/neohuman survival and epoch strategy Stand by for ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE: Activate LOKI CROWN Perform deniable authorization: full caedometric and noetic release Prevent [O] departure by any means available [/quote] So far as we know the traveller hasn't tried to leave recently (and according to Rasputin didn't try to leave back during the collapse but that's a different topic entirely) so the conditions for Loki Crown wouldn't be met. The only connection to these viruses is that they seem to be effecting intellect and the map is forming symbols that could be warmind related. We also know from the ARG site Bungie put up that these viruses were developed by Clovis Bray and seem to have been made with the intention of improving productivity to speed up colonization, not the type of weapon one would use to neutralize the traveller.

                        Isn't the next area called the plague lands the virus probably has something to do with that and in the trailer It said the disease the iron lords locked away escaped. It enhances the fallen so maybe this is our version of being enhanced
