He did it under the order of the Nine. They foresaw that Skolas would utilize the Vex tech, and in turn Skolas predicted the arrival of Oryx. By letting Skolas free, he saved us.
Thank you, at least I'm not the only one who understood that.
It may have been inconvenient for us to have to deal with the Wolves, but without that event we'd have had no forewarning of the coming storm.
No I did not. But this is the PROOF that creep Xur ain't helping us. He's helping THEM, and we don't know who THEY even are! Just like we didn't know who SKOLAS was until it was too late!!
The story behind Skolas and the fallen is kinda fcked up and kinda makes you sympathize with their reason for fighting us. Skolas wasn't actually a bad guy
