With the release of witch queen we have a whole slew of new content and lore to discuss, most importantly we have a LARGE amount of sweet sweet scorn content to go over as a result In the third mission of witch queen Fynch sends us to the temple of wrath, a place filled with Scorn and as such we get some interesting dialogue about who might be leading them Ikora suggests the Fanatic, confirming that he's not only alive but escaped the reef as well Fynch doubts it as whatever's leading the scorn must be "capital P powerful" At first glance this sounds as if the Fanatic is now a seperate entity from the Scorn, and that he's been abandoned by his own creation and followers However, throughout the throne world we actually find Scorn bosses called "Fanatic's chosen". The same bosses we saw in Forsaken patrolling the dreaming city. One of which is found in the parasite quest all the way down in the temple of cunning This subtly confirms that while Fikrul may no longer be the defacto leader of the Scorn, he's still part of the faction. Possibly in subservience to the Witness (which isn't unheard of, as he was beholden to Uldren during Forsaken) Long story short, Fikrul's still alive and he's involved in some big stuff. Let's go!
