Hopefully, if the Whisper mission and the Annual Pass stuff being kept vague is any indication, I think we may have a Calus like ally within the Hive. Now the Hive aren't entirely Darkness. Darkness wants Nothing to exist and the Hive are still a race wanting to exist, which is why they made the Pact with the Worms to begin with. Oryx was wrong about the Sword Logic, in practicing only the taking aspect part. Which in hindsight is a good plan. Except for the fact the there are limitations to how much you can take. Just like there is a limit to how much you can sharpen a sword before it becomes unusable. This was Oryx's flaw. His power was becoming unsustainable. His hunger was insatiable, just like his Father, the King before him. Savathun is the clever one, a thinker not a fighter. Savathun knows the limitations. She has felt the insatiable hunger. She know's the flaws of the Sword Logic. Which is what Oryx, before dying, hoped that Savathun would figure out after she left on her own. He hope she became stronger than him. and so she did.. along with her pet Vex Quria. A Taken Hydra that attempted to simulate Oryx, but could only simulate Aurash before being Taken and given to Savathun as a gift. A Taken Hydra capable of creating simulations, leads to the Whisper mission on Io. A Taken Valus Ta'Aurc, Draksis Winter Kell and Urzok the Hated. 3 enemies we've seen before in D1. All have been defeated before becoming Taken. We meet again one of them on Io, as Taken and defeat them. Then we meet them again in the Whisper mission and defeat them again. Resurrections or simulations? Either way, what else can we expect to see? A Taken Phogoth? Skolas? Aksis? Atheon? Ghaul? Our past is coming back to haunt us.. Much like Uldren. At the end of the campaign before he's killed by his own sister, most likely a simulated Sovathun. The Raid begins and we meet our old friends again. Only it's a test for us that Savathun has set up to test how strong our Light really is. She's the Final Raid boss, but her power is being simulated by Quria because Quria actually has all the power, not Savathun. Kind of like Calus & his Psion Councilors. Intrigued by us she offers to be an ally of darkness, to fight the real Darkness coming to devour everything. Which leads to the Annual Pass stuff. 3 pieces of vaguely worded DLC bundled together as if they're all connected by something. My guess is that Savathun is going to become the new Calus and give us challenges to accomplish with these DLC & new Raid Lairs. I really hope it's something like this. At least the part about Savathun being an neutral ally. I do NOT want her character build up to be thrown away in a Campaign/Raid boss fight like Oryx. No, not twice in a row. Her brilliance & cunning needs to be respected.
