If that really is the story, of the nine being leviathans that meet Osiris on the moon, then it doesn't really add up either. By definition, leviathans are large creatures that live in the depths of oceans. So to speak of large, ocean dwelling creatures traveling through space to one planet sounds a little off to me, not to mention the lack of any large bodies of water on the moon.
In some mythologies, leviathans are told to have telepathic powers, so using that, perhaps the 9 sent representatives that they spoke through to meet up with Osiris on the moon? If that may be the case, who's to say that the 9 are not the planets with ascensent minds that also sent representatives which they spoke through to speak with Osiris?
Just an idea, I'm not really big on coming up with destiny lore, I leave that to the experts, just pointing out things that could be wrong or hold true from this one.

Edited by cViking: 12/31/2015 3:03:02 PMHe did not meet them on the moon....also I do not recall the card ever talking about creature, maybe we are thinking of 2 different parts of the grimoire. Further clarification is that Europe is a moon of Jupiter not earth moon so we don't actually know what that moon is like or its environment.

They had early concept art of Europa, it was icy but still had some water. So bringing the other guy and your ideas together, they're compatible (by which I mean leviathans meeting in some water place).

Europa is another name for the moon, that's where I got that from. Like I said, im far from any sort of expert on destiny lore, and haven't read a whole lot of the grimoire myself, just read a lot of other people's theories on it. I guess no one really knows for sure, hence them being theories, I was just throwing my two cents out there. I love seeing what other people come up with

Edited by cViking: 12/31/2015 3:08:39 PMThat's where you are wrong though, Europa is not the earth moon that we travel to in the game, Europa is a moon of Jupiter that we have no information on other then that Osiris traveled there and the Nine have been there. I understand though and the theory the OP came up with is very creative it just doesn't really fit with the Grimoire.

Yeah I missed your second paragraph until after I responded. I'm tracking what you're saying now though. All good things to keep in mind.

Edited by cViking: 12/31/2015 3:18:51 PMI really enjoy the different theory's though, I like to believe that the nine are the remaining Ahamkara's, They are belived to be extinct by the tower but Grimoire does hint at them be able to defy all probability so it is possible there are some(nine) still alive. I didn't create this thread but this person explains it in much detail: https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3bro1r/the_identity_of_the_nine/ Keep in mind to that he talk about Xur and the Jovian's the Jovian's are linked with Europa at one point briefly so it would fit as to why Osiris went to Europa because he is obsessed with the Ahamkarra's.

And I just saw the second paragraph of your response, I gotcha now. Thanks!
