I have one huge problem with this and it's pretty glaring. The Nine are described exclusively as 'rulers of the jovian systems' implying that it's just the 9 of them that rule over the gas giants in our solar system (i.e. the jovian planets). It's far more likely that each of the 9 rules a moon around one of these planets.

    I believe that card also specifically says that "the nine" are deep space warminds.

  • The card actually has nine different theories about the Nine: [quote]The Nine are survivors of the cis-Jovian colonies who made a compact with an alien force to ensure their own survival. The Nine are deep-orbit warminds who weathered the Collapse in hardened stealth platforms. The Nine are ancient leviathan intelligences from the seas of Europa or the hydrocarbon pits of Titan. The Nine arrived in a mysterious transmission from the direction of the Corona-Borealis supercluster. The Nine are the firstborn Awoken and their minds now race down the field lines of the Jupiter-Io flux tube. The Nine are Ghosts who pierced the Deep Black without a ship and meditated on the hissing silence of the heliopause. The Nine are the aspects of the Darkness, broken by the Traveler's rebuke, working to destroy us from within. The Nine is a viral language of pure meaning. The Nine are the shadows left by the annihilation of a transcendent shape, burned into the weft of what is. [/quote] So they could be anything. Doubt they're actually PLANETS though.

  • The only thing mentioned about the planets in the posts above is that The Nine are potentially rulers of those planets, not the planets themselves. I'm still of the mind that all of these definitions on the card are accurate and because Bungie ... time travel somehow links them all together and perhaps they're different definitions taken from different points in time.

    Good look coach, I believe you are indeed right. I personally think the above mentioned one is more reliable than my own personal idea but for ME. The word Jovian isn't simply our own gas giants but the class of planet that Jupiter is included in so it doesn't necessarily even pertain to our own solar system if Bungie is using the full definition of "Jovian". If bungie is using the full definition could the 'deep space' and 'Jovian' terms be tied into other solar systems ?
