I’m yet to watch Matt’s video but I have seen the talk about the verse on reddit.
What if the words “Eldritch race” has more meaning.
Definition of Eldritch means “weird and sinister or ghostly.”
So a ghostly/weird and sinister race. Kinda fits the Awoken. But also the hive. And possibly the darkness. If I’m not mistaken Cayde describes the darkness as ghostly.
But what if it’s connected to the vex?
The weapon itself is called Garden Progeny.
The meaning of progeny is “a descendant or the descendants of a person, animal, or plant; offspring.”
But what if it’s a bit more metaphorical. The descendants of the garden. The black garden.
When combined with the prophecy:
[quote] Two siblings cleaved by time and space, reflections never found alone,
The ending of the eldritch race—a path long seen but never known.[/quote]
What if the weapon name plus the prophecy is actually about the extinction of all. Light and Darkness.
The two siblings part is representing the Awoken. The Eldritch race is the hive.
The descendants of the black garden will eradicate all light and dark. From the Awoken siblings separated in the Dreaming City and Tangled Shore, to the Eldritch race of the hive. All will end.
Heck. Throw in the contents of the lore tab and you can add humanity in there as well.
It’s like Osiris says. The dark future cannot be averted.

IceApfelにより編集済み: 8/13/2019 12:28:20 PMHe says a lot of what you just said. I like this interpretation, especially the part about the dark future, but I personally feel like it’s too forced, but that might be just me. As is the nature with interpretations, everyone has their own. I don’t really think that the names of the forge weapons correlate to the prophecy that is featured on them. Some fit, but some don’t. West of Sunfall 7 and Future Safe 10 are examples for the latter. I still don’t really see the Awoken in any of it really. Even if the sibling lines would fit, next line definitely doesn’t. [spoiler]As for Lost Sector Stories, I have one on Io that I’m very intrigued by, so maybe I’ll take a try at that.[/spoiler]
