  • Since we heard of them from Oryx's shrine, there is two (or more) possible possibilities. The other 4 Gods are weaker and are still preparing, or they are much stronger and sent Oryx to see if he could do it himself. That's how I see it.

    Only the fifth word (most likely Oryx) spilled from the Shrine. The others were simply cried out by the Hive. And I think that card is proof that Toland is still alive and kicking. Here's a link: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/150468655/0/0

  • That makes a lot of sense. I'm hoping he's alive. He's my favorite lore character, and the entire story about him and his fireteam taking on Crota and his minions is very interesting to read about.

  • They are all higher than Oryx. And in Bungie's 10-year plan, we are most likely going to see them eventually

  • Honestly I feel like oryx is the most powerful since he can just keep replacing his army *whatever you kill, oryx will replace* I mean we don't know what the other 4 hive gods can do but oryx can just keep replacing his army over and over

  • I have four reasons why I don't think Oryx is that powerful compared to the rest of the expansive Hive Pantheon: 1. His heir, Crota, is the youngest and most likely weakest of the Hive gods 2. He was knighted 3. I honestly doubt a Knight with an axe would dare defy Oryx if he were [i]that[/i] powerful 4. I don't think Bungie would have us kill off a major Hive god in Year 2 of a 10-year plan

  • Remember Alak hul is a dark blade not a knight and who knows how powerful a dark blade is .

  • Yeah, I know Darkblades are more than just Knights with axes, but I still doubt that one would stand up to a very powerful Hive god

  • Very true but dark blade was not alone in this scheme there was a wizard who's name I can not remember though still I don't see how oryx could not kill them straight away . I mean it was a civil war for Christ sake .

  • Verok was his consort, but I don't know what happened to her. Oryx wanted to make a show of Alak-Hul, locking him in the Sunless Cell for eternity

  • Yes that is right we will have to wait for the taken king for the real story hopefully

  • On a separate note, Alak-Hul, Verok, and her Thrall were the ones to kill Vell Tarlowe, the only Titan on Eris's fireteam

  • Yes that is true as well ,though I wonder why Alak hul Rebelled against oryx it must have been something pretty major to cause an entire civil war

  • The starting event was probably when Oryx was knighted
