The Grand Bacon Theory;
As we all know, Mara Sov was trapped in the Ascendant Plane for quite some time. This means that she has innate knowledge of the universe. The Dawning Recipe we make for her is entitled: Ascendant Apple Tarts. This means her food tastes are sour and sweet. These would point to a hickory smoked style bacon recipe, or just that million dollar from First Watch if anyone's had it. (I recomend.) But we never see her eat. This is curious. The Awoken are immortal. The have perfect physique. So she could consume as much bacon as she wants to, but also doesn't have to. If you think about it, though, she has incredible knowledge and skill. These are innate powers and properties associated with bacon, the almighty food. As you can observe in The Book of Sorrow letter 7 number Q, Oryx says to Xol, Will of Thousands, and Nokris before he casts them out, "I like bacon, I think Imma go Take some pigs." Thus he Took pigs, giving them regenerative powers, so that their bacon could be harvested infinitely. This leads me to believe that Mara discovered the hidden location of the Arcane Porkers, and has eaten the Ascendant Bacon to give her strength through Darkness and Bacon power combined. This makes her our most powerful ally.
