You have been challenged, guardian, in the ways of old. This riddle is designed to throw you off. Will you stray from the path, or stay true to your goal?
Who/What am I?
How many times have I been wiped?.. You will dream of teeth, and nothing else. I link together to control destruction, to create and channel the indirect non-creation. Once I am confronted, it will turn. Its own kind has made me instruments of its torture. It is not I that threaten you, but it is my absence that will surely provoke. But at the very least, I am here. Yes, surely, you have sealed yourself in its liberation. And when the wholly battle cry is uttered, your master will solemnly nod, for I have exacted its doom.

[b]Explanation:[/b]
[spoiler]"You will...nothing else." -Line from the description of Voidfang Vestments, but meant to mean Hellmouth, on account of the despairing tone and the hellish imagery put forth in its communication.
"I link to together...non-creation." -A possible misdirect to the Arcbolt Grenade, but actually means the links of a chain.
"Once I am confronted, it will turn" -If you get close to Phogoth, the chains break and he turns towards you.
"Own kind...torture" -The Hive chained him up, but could be Variks, yes?
"It is not I...surely provoke" -Chains=you're good, chains break=f**king run away from the eye blast.
"Sealed yourself in its liberation." -Once he's free, you're screwed.
"Wholly battle cry." -Play-on words of holy battle cry, alluding in a literal sense to the Summoning Pits's name.
"Master will nod." -"The Vanguard will be grateful." -Dinklebot
"I have exacted its doom." -The chains kept him in place while guardians would shoot at him.
"Lunar Mist" -Lunar refers to the moon, limiting options off the get-go and sets people on the right track only to be thrown off during the riddle by the mist.[/spoiler]

Edited by OuroborosWrath: 6/13/2015 9:28:01 PMPeople said conflux but you said smaller. Then people said witches from the Hive and ogres/thrall. I'm gonna say (my second guess) the lanterns in he first part of Crotas End. When we get close they turn volatile and explode. They're an instrument of the hives own destruction since the Hive made them. And I believe the paragraph said something about a path of non creation. The path of lanterns create LIGHT to lift the weight of darkness but doesn't actually create life. Dream of teeth, well there skeletons everywhere in the maze so you see tons of teeth indirectly. You wipe the darkness and if you fail your wipe the Fireteam.

There's no way someone hasn't guessed this yet but is it Oryx? Assuming Oryx is a wizard class and not a knight, it fits

Probably wrong but Phogoth?

A wizard maybe? They experiment on their own kind, and they're often found with more than one present, so they sorta link together, and they indirectly control the hive's non creation...
