Well, guess I was wrong. A while back, I made a post speculating on what the Kings were up to. [spoiler]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/218080091/0/0[/spoiler] But, it appears that I was way off. The Kings aren't as high and mighty as we once thought. Uldren refers to their house as being broken. [quote]A broken ruler of a broken house, and the last of his kind. They were more alike than he cared to admit.[/quote] -Reef 4 Obviously, the broken ruler is the Kell of Kings, and the house being House Kings. Uldren is broken, considering his Queen/sister is presumed dead, and that the attack on Oryx failed. But now I'm getting sidetracked. The King Kell is said to be broken by Uldren, which is a major piece of information. This shows us that all Fallen houses are now currently broken. Devils-no Archon, no Kell, no Prime. Winter-no Archon, no Kell, missing Prine. Wolves-no Archons, no Kell, no Primes. [spoiler]Two Primes, Kaliks and Orbiks, means two Archon Priests, Aksor and Keldar. [/spoiler] Exile-just broken. And now Kings. From what we can gather here, they have a Kell. For a house to be considered broken (in my opinion), they can't have a Prime. Why? No Prime means no Ether. You can replace a Kell, just look at the Reef Wars. You can replace an Archon Priest, Winter did. [spoiler]Maybe. Our Wolf/King/Winter Priest Aksor is quite confuzzling.[/spoiler] But replacing a Prime is extremely difficult. Aksis did it, but with SIVA. The Guardian has destroyed SIVA's Replication Chamber, and Aksis. So SIVA is off of the list. Wolves repaired Orbiks Prime, probably because Kaliks Reborn didn't fair too well in the PoE. But, repairing something without the aid of SIVA, a Prime Servitor no less, must take a lot of resources. That may be why Servitors are revered as gods. Because they can't be manufactured easily anymore. So Kings' Prime may be MIA, like Simiks (Winter), or destroyed, like Sepiks. However, they might have a missing Archon Priest. The reason is why this isn't a big deal is because there are other, lesser Archons. For example, let's use the Devils. Say we killed Aksis before Rise of Iron, and never killed Riksis. Riksis is now a contender to become Archon Priest. If an Archon Priest is removed, they can be replaced, much like a Kell. A third cause may be that House Kings is just too small. Exile, being the puny house it is, is quite small. This is understandable, considering they're mostly Dregs (who haven't figured out how to remove their docking caps and regain their 2nd pair of arms...), but House Kings is a full house (no pun intended). Something catastrophic must have happened to the Kings. What's that? Oryx, you say? Why yes, that's quite possible. During TTK, we come across a large amount of Taken Fallen, especially those damned aimbot Vandals. Oryx's forces may have come from Kings and Devils. Now, thankfully it's been a while since I've seen Taken. So maybe their cloaks don't match. But do you find Winter cloaks on Venusian Taken Fallen? [spoiler]Do you? I can't remember.[/spoiler] Well, enough of my rambling. There's the TL;DR. TL;DR-House Kings is broken, contrary to what was popular belief up until 3/28/17. Kings may have a missing Prime or Archon Priest, or may simply not have the numbers. *Edit* Just a little something I hadn't considered, surprisingly. [spoiler][quote]That same card mentions all houses are broken except for the kings who are still relatively active. It may mean broken as in how all houses were technically broken being that they are fallen and not the great civilization they once were.[/quote] -l3LACKxW1D0W[/spoiler]
