Possible Plot Points in DLC4
<Alright, so the pretty-much confirmed boss of DLC4 is Savathûn, the Witch Queen. But there's other points building up. Xivu Arath seems to, in some way, have joined the fight. Quria is also being built up as an agent AGAINST Savathûn.
So let's list a few possible outcomes and when the DLC comes around we'll see what sticks.
1. Xivu Arath isn't actually here. This is explained away be Savathûn making us think there's more to her army.
2. Xivu Arath goes to resurrect Oryx. The thought process here is remembering that Arath still loves her siblings, even in that twisted Hive manner. She's the most selfless of the 3 and having Oryx die leaves a rift.
3. Xivu Arath successfully resurrects Oryx. This delves into unlikely territory considering a few theories below and the fact that I don't think Bungie plans on bringing Oryx back. But what if?
4. Arath doesn't die. This scenario involves her escaping while Savathûn dies.
5. Xivu Arath gets Taken. Savathûn or Quria takes Xivu Arath after the latter fails at a major task, or simply because Savathûn does not care.
6. Xivu Arath dies with Savathûn. This would end the Hive.
7. Savathûn lets her emotions come out. This all plays on a potential that she's some kind of Azula-type villain but it may be unlikely. However, this would make her death similar to Oryx.
8. Savathûn dies. This is the most likely scenario out of everything here. She must die.
9. Savathûn wants to resurrect Oryx. This is the least likely scenario out of everything here.
10. Savathûn kills Xivu Arath. This is the same scenario as her Taking Arath, but killing instead.
11. Savathûn controls Quria fully. This would be after the latter reveals itself to not be fully trustworthy.
12. Ur, the Ever Hunger shows up. In Ananh shows allegiance to Ur and Savathûn's decisions are viewed by Ur. He may show his face.
13. Quria turns out to be a good guy. This would give a first instance of truly allied Vex, even if Taken.
14. Quria can Take completely without assistance. This may lead to other scenarios like Savathûn being Taken but that's unlikely.
15. Quria takes control over the Taken. This would rift the Taken and Hive relationship.
16. Quria dies. Nothing left to say on that matter.
17. Quria is true neutral. It fights against us and Savathûn.
18. The Vex help us.
Like I mentioned these are just possible scenarios and there's no way in hell ALL of this can happen, but some of it just might.

2 RepliesI'd love a plot like #3 except Oryx joins the fight on [i]our side[/i]. Xivu Arath brings Oryx back; but because Oryx's long-seeded hatred for his sister(s) and "blasphemous" outlooks on resurrection according to the Hive, ends up fleeing back to his Dreadnaught where he tries rebuilding what's left of his army. But because Savathûn has taken Oryx's place as a new Taken King/Queen and he no longer has the Worm inside him, he forcibly seeks out aid from the only ones he thinks are capable of defeating his sisters: us Guardians. While Oryx won't forgive us for killing his son, he decides it's better to focus on what lies ahead instead of dwelling on horrible past deeds. [spoiler]it sounds a little unlikely, but i think it'd be awesome. :D[/spoiler]
