Was Savathun working with the Witness? Unraveling the Truth behind the Hive Queen’s Role

The Witness, an ancient and powerful being from the Reef, is responsible for the collapse of our beloved solar system. Her involvement in the Collapse still puzzles many, and recent events have shed new light on the situation. According to Savathun’s Worm, the Witness had a direct role in the Collapse, alongside her Disciples and Savathûn herself. So, the question remains, was Savathun working with the Witness? Was there a grand scheme, a conspiracy between these powerful forces?

Deceptions and Manipulations

We now know that Savathûn is not working for the Witness. She actually tricked the Witness to spare the Traveler and instead sent it "away." This was mentioned by Ghost, the Speaker for the Traveler. However, there’s no indication that Savathun ever intended to harm or prevent the Witness from colluding with Oryx to bring about the Collapse. Her actions seem more strategic and manipulative.

The reason for Savathûn’s actions remains uncertain. It is believed she intended to keep the Traveler alive for later use, but without sufficient information, it remains speculation. Another theory proposes that she aimed to protect her Hive and its people. She knew the Witness sought the Traveler for herself and intervened to prevent destruction of the Reef.

The situation raises more questions, including why the Worm’s true intentions were manipulated, leading us to reexamine our understanding of events.

A Scheme Within a Scheme

Further investigations suggest that Oryx and the Witness cooperated to bring about the Collapse, and Savathûn, on her part, sought to influence this scheme to save her own interests.

One possibility is that she wished to use the energy of the Traveler’s Collapse to empower her Hive and its people. After the event, she claimed her true goal was protecting her kind and keeping them separate from the forces that destroy others.

In the game’s lore, Savathûn is described as highly strategic and calculating, prioritizing her Hive’s future and the well-being of its people. This strategy included deception, manipulation, and manipulation of her peers to achieve her objectives. While it seems morally questionable, it should not be ignored as merely opportunistic behavior.

As new revelations continue to come to light, the roles and motivations of key players within the Hive become clear. Understanding their intentions remains essential for comprehending events.

Savathun’s Role: Savior or Opportunist?

As the game moves forward, the motives and actions of Savathûn, Oryx, and the Witness remain open to interpretation, but a more complete story will continue to emerge through narrative developments and the world itself.

One question emerges from the fog of history: what are Savathûn’s ultimate ambitions, and is her influence now the primary concern facing humanity?

While Savathûn may have sacrificed certain morals to ensure survival of her people, an answer remains to be resolved:

Was Savathun truly working with the Witness to protect her people?

or was she just calculatingly opportunistic, choosing sides for personal gain while orchestrating her own success?
