Sooooo…When Will Mara Whack Spider?

She said she was going to do it. She ordered Petra to do it. She’s had Guardians whacked in the Last City for her secrets regarding the Ahamkara and they were under the Vanguards protection. When will the Paladin death squad go after Spider?

    Things are different now, her brother is The Vanguard, and she probably doesn't care anymore And in what lore states Mara had guardians executed ?

  • [url=https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/buccas-jollyboat]Buccas Jollyboat[/url] [quote]"We have received word that Spider now resides in the Last City," Petra said, daring a shrug. The tiny crystalline structure abruptly fell to sand between Mara's hands. She -blam!- her head to the side, unable to hold back her incredulous smile. She shook a finger at Petra. "When I want him—" Petra brought a fist to her chest and nodded. "You need only give the word, my queen." Mara shook her head, boggling at the Spider's improbable path. "Will Crow…" she began, but couldn't find the right word to contain the breadth of justice she imagined. Petra grinned. "I guess we'll find out."[/quote] [url=https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/ii-jurisdiction]II : Jurisdiction[/url] [quote]"And if Mara demands his extradition?" Ikora crossed her arms behind her back and arched her eyebrow at Zavala. The Vanguard leaders were sequestered in Zavala's office—a terse missive from Petra Venj lay at issue between them. "Then we'll happily accommodate her," the commander responded with a wry smile. "But I suspect Mara's attention is elsewhere." "Perhaps she needs a reminder," Ikora floated casually. "It would give us the political cover to act." "It would," Zavala frowned. "But even if we evict him, I'm reluctant to send him back to the Reef." ————————— "You're right," he conceded. "Spider's more trouble than he's worth." Ikora sighed. "If I'm right, then why are you about to fight me on this?" Zavala smiled softly. They knew each other so well. "Two reasons," he replied. "First, Spider is something of a… cultural liaison between the Eliksni and humanity. He was welcoming to Guardians when most of the Shore was still a war zone." ————————— "Mine as well," Zavala replied. "But we have to accept the Eliksni for who they are. Warts and all. If we're going to live with them, we have to understand them. And nobody understands both sides like Spider." "And second?" Ikora prompted. "We never know who might become an ally." Zavala gestured in the direction of the Eliksni Quarter below. "The number of Guardians that Mithrax has killed over the years…" He trailed off with a shake of his head. "But now Mithrax fights for the Last City as his home," he continued, turning back to Ikora. "It was unimaginable even a decade ago, but here we are. And in Eido, I see the first real hope for collective peace in my lifetime. Not just a cease-fire, but a real peace." Zavala shrugged. "In a century or two, who knows what Spider might become." [/quote] Honestly I think that fury shown in the first entry has faded because of all that’s transpired since then. We have after all fought off an attempt invasion by Xivu into Sol, attempted to fight the Pyramids above Earth, found and secured the next generation of Ahamkara as well as the whole ‘stop the Final Shape’ thing. Now that Spider is more integrated into the Eliksni Quarter, he’s now a part of the infrastructure of the City, whether we like it or not. His removal would have consequences, consequences Crow likely wouldn’t approve of. I would say it’s very likely a case of “If he steps out of line again-“, considering Mara is still meeting with Crow during his leadership role as Hunter Vanguard. I do hope it gets directly addressed at some point during this act, especially with Variks having an even bigger target on his back from the Awoken on account of his having betrayed them.

  • The spider is irrelevant to her. She had to help us fight of multiple crisis and deal with the whole her brother reborn so it essentially hey if petra gets him OK if she doesn't well ok well get him another time. Plus right now mara can rest after the war with the witness and focus on her people. On a side note if I could I would stick a nova bomb down the spiders throat.
