Where/what is the Deep? [b]The Deep is possibly another name for the Darkness, but it also suggests a location. Perhaps where the Darkness is at it's most powerful, or where it's power lies.[/b] Is the Fundament a physical planet/location? [b] Fundament is a gas giant with several layers of atmosphere which are seen as seas to those who inhabit the planet. It's location is unknown, but fun fact, Saturn has 52 named moons[/b] Who are the Helium Drinkers? [b]The Helium Drinkers, as well as the Star Cutters if I remember correctly, are also a part of the original race that became Hive. Think different continent. The original, "Krill" planet crashed into Fundament and broke into several "continents" Aurash's people on one, Helium Drinkers another. [/b] Who are the the Ecumene? [b]The Ecumene were a race of pure logic, I believe that's how it's phrased, and I'm a bit rusty on their details but they've spread out far and wide across the stars, inhabiting several worlds.[/b] Did the three sisters ever kill Taox? [b]They did not kill her to our knowledge. Her current state is unknown.[/b] Are Savathûn and Xivu Arath still alive? [b]Again to our knowledge they are still alive, I personally believe Mara Sov is actually Savathûn, as said in the Books she's disguised herself to infiltrate a race before. [/b] Did the Traveler cause the God-Wave? [b]There's nothing that actually proves the Traveler created the God Wave, it's more likely that it was a lie used by the Worm Gods to trick the Krill into accepting their larva[/b] Edit: Do you think the Krill were inherently evil, or do you think they were they tricked by the worm gods who were imprisoned by the leviathan in the core of the Fundament? [b]They were... neutral I suppose. Haha[/b] Any more questions just feel free to ask! :)

I thought i might know this and then i looked again and was disappointed in my self

[i]Nobody knows exactly, though its assumed they are everywhere, every possible universe. The Deep is another word for, "The Darkness"[/i] Is the Fundament a physical planet/location? [i]Yes, a gas giant with floating continets.[/i] Who are the Helium Drinkers? [i]Other proto Hive who eat other proto hive babies.[/i] Who are the ecumene? [i]an Alliance of technological advance races who worked together for the common good. They eventually fell to the Hive.[/i] Did the three sisters ever kill Taox? [i]It never says, shortly after the fall of the ecumene, she vanished. Its assumed we will see her again in some future DLC.[/i] Are Savathun and Xivu Arath still alive? [i]In a sense.[/i] Did the traveler cause the godwave? [i]Yes[/i] Your last edit is interesting. But it shows that the krill lived terrible harsh lives, but they endured. I believe change is what they wanted, though the path they took was inherently the same path as the Darkness. Good questions brother.

I think the fundament is our galaxy or Jupiter (I'm saying this due to the number of moons they speak of) it's a big question I've had on my mind. Anyone want to discuss?

The deep is the darkness Fundament's is a real planet The helium drinkers were a different faction of the krill The ecumene were a highly advanced race that the hive killed Taox is still alive Savathun and xivu Arath are still alive The traveler did not cause the god wave

The God-wave was caused by Fundament's moons, not the traveler.

Fort Oink nailed it. Imma just add. The Deep/Darkness is some kind of being with powers that we don't understand. It knighted Oryx and gave him the power to create Taken. Fundament is a gas giant. One of the Darkness grimoire cards talks about Oryx coming to that conclusion. Ecumene are the only ones to have actually given the Hive enough trouble to think that they were defeated for a time.

I've been playing destiny for a long time now and I seriously can't even tell who those people are!!! I don't even know who the traveler is:( I just play and shoot :3

Can we make this thread just a "ask about the lore" post? What happened to the Ishtar researchers after their simulations got pulled out of the Vex? Are they still alive?

I read lots of lore but haven't heard about these

Did you call the hunters- oh nevermind the [b]lore hunters![/b]

I believe Fundament is a gas giant that collided with a solid planet, forming small continents and a "sea of gas"
