Question About Fikrul
Two questions actually
To preface; My understanding of the way Fikrul resurrects Fallen is that he basically pumps Eliksni corpses full of Dark Ether, and they are reanimated. I assume his new abilities work by using the Paracausal forces of the Echo and suffusing nearby Eliksni bodies with Darkness (though I haven't read or seen much on this). So here are my questions, considering that the former statements are true:
1: can Fikrul infuse more than just Eliksni corpses with Dark Ether? If it's a substance similar to blood that he can control, could it also reanimate other species?
2: there are a few instances of Scorn who are, or at least seem to be, fully autonomous; Are all Scorn capable of independent thought, or is this trait only possible when Fikrul grants it to them?
I ask this because the Scorn in Forsaken were presented as a horde composed [mostly] of mindless zombies, but apparently Witch Queen introduced the idea that they weren't actually all zombie slaves, only under the Witness's control they were (which is why Fikrul hated the Witness), but now the corrupted Eliksni don't have free will again, so I'm pretty confused on this.
I don't read a lot of lore, but I was curious and couldn't find results to these from any source online

Edited by jhermannITJ: 10/18/2024 2:47:48 PMSo, this is theory and conjecture... grains of salt. This episode is about answering those questions. The last message in Vesper's Host (both the message & the lore from the class item it unlocked) revealed 2 things from which my theory informs... The White Captain Indoctrination using language like "flower" and "limb". When the Elikisni discovered Vesper Station, essentially to loot it... they were corrupted. All that is fact. Now theory: They were the precursor for the Scorn... whatever tech was used to corrupt the original Eliksni was also used by Uldren to create the Scorn... we know for a single purpose or curse placed upon Fikrul. Not yet 100% confirmed, but I believe that purpose was to exterminate the House of Wolves. Fikrul cannot die until that happens. That's his boon and curse, because it was his house... he came from the HoW. That's why when Cayde killed him the 1st time, he popped back up. When we killed him the second time, he popped back up. Here's my big prediction... the last surviving member of the House of Wolves is... [spoiler]Eido... and her real father is the Archon Priest Fikrul or Skolas... my money is on Skolas.[/spoiler] The White Captain's will is that of the Gardener's. The initial corruption of the Elikisni on Vesper station, as well as the creation and purpose for the Scorn. So, your questions: [i]"1: can Fikrul infuse more than just Eliksni corpses with Dark Ether? If it's a substance similar to blood that he can control, could it also reanimate other species"?[/i] Fikrul will use any powers he has to achieve his purpose, to become or anoint the Kell of Kells, per the prophecy, by eliminating the House of Wolves. Btw, I think our way out comes by way a loophole... [spoiler]If Eido kills Fikrul...[/spoiler] Ever watch "Highlander"? "There can be ONLY ONE"! 😁 [i]"2: there are a few instances of Scorn who are, or at least seem to be, fully autonomous; Are all Scorn capable of independent thought, or is this trait only possible when Fikrul grants it to them"?[/i] They're all bound by the Scorn's and Fikrul's curse... regardless of individual scorn autonomy. They must follow Fikrul... and submit to his purpose.
