The Season of Dawn Corridors of Time theory:

Read article, I will rant about this.


So, those who remember. We killed Inotam in Season of Dawn, and returned Saint-14 from the Infinite Forest before the Vex killed him.

But.

There was a part which showed our Guardian's grave from a possible (!) future.

Here's what I speculate happened.

So, the D2 New Light Guardian (post-Beyond Light sequence of new players) is NOT the D1 Guardian that we had during Red War. Sure, they are sometimes called by the D1 Guardian's titles, as we the players truly bear those titles in the Destiny universe. The Nine hinted at the fact that players exist a while ago.

So the actual theory is:

The D1 Guardian died in the main timeline, but came back in the form of the post-Beyond Light New Light Guardian. Hence why Saint-14 grieved in the possible future fraction in the Corridors of Time.

As to why we didn't see it, in my theory... it was likely inbetween Season of Arrivals and Beyond Light's main events, off the screen. The Vex are pretty much capable of breaking time, after all.

This theory was made based on:

-the fact that if someone played D1 then starts playing D2, they now have to make a new character anyways, while before Beyond Light released, it carried over to D2.

-while some people might think that it is a future event that didn't yet happen and will likely happen in TFS, the cut between Season of Arrivals and Beyond Light might have been the point where it happened already.

-none of the expansions before Beyond Light (nor does BL) have any of the old text if one has done the past expansion storyline (Shadowkeep doesn't have the Forsaken Pyramid ship encounter dialogue rewrite, Eris mentions that she alone went into the Lunar Pyramid by what I can gather)

-while Eris says that the Nightmares of Ghaul, the Fanatic, and Crota are from our past, Shadowkeep is a legacy expansion, keep that in mind that in canon we are still the D1 Guardian there.

-Riven (in Season of the Wish, I don't have the season pass but still) never calls us her murderer in the current Season storyline, despite Ahamkara being aware that they are in a game, and she is directly addressing the player who in fact killed her.

That is all I could gather, I will expand this theory if I find more.

Still cooking...

Made more progress with the fifth scene.

He was not seen without the Malefactor Whitewood Mask before.

Undying

The comic's first page is being worked on, rough sketch state

There isn't much to it, just two traditional art scenes left unfinished

It's been confirmed.

With the release of the Final Shape, all weapons will be partially unsunset and usable again. However they will be returning overtime in new ways.

Guardians, we are so back.

And the full page progress. Not much improved on scene 4, will make it sometime later.

Is bungie reverting the sunsetting chat? Or is something else going on?

I haven't forgotten about this one

Relinearted and colored the head of this silly fellow

My lining pen is out of ink now, unfortunately.

Progress with the sketch

Scene 4 is how the Forestborn died prior to the comic's start, the character behind the killing blow won't be revealed and isn't canon to Undying at all other than the death. It's none of the characters in my lores, too.

Don’t forget to prepare your load outs and characters for The Final Shape on Tuesday before servers go offline tomorrow!

Take note that sunset gear is getting unsunset and is viable again!
