Every time The Witness speaks to our Guardian in Destiny 2

  • We now know that the Voice in the Darkness that has been speaking to us this whole time was The Witness. So, here's a quick video showing every time our Guardian has been spoken to by the Voice in the Darkness, The Witness. Lightfall's main antagonist and the ultimate evil of the Light and Darkness saga. This video includes Shadowkeep, Season of Arrivals, and Beyond Light (cutscenes and dialogue). Also, for anyone who is wondering, I didn't include the final cutscene of The Witch Queen, where we see the Witness's true form because that speech was directed at the Traveler, and not our Guardian.

      @@iixoticii8801 my main theory is that in lightfall we will be either abandoned by the light or it will be captured like in some red war type deal. We will combat this by resurrecting savathuun and asking her for help. Maybe she even gives us hive powers and that is the new subclass. And in either lightfall or final shape we will use all our Allies to try and defeat the witness. I wasn’t aware of the room with the four races as I wasn’t playing the game at the time and seeing it now helps me reinforce my theory. I also think it’s interesting that they have built each of our Allies a equal opponent. Caital has calus, mithrax has erimas, savathuun has xivu arath. I also think it wouldn’t be far fetched to say the traveler will grant caital the light and mithrax and the fallen as well

It fits in perfectly, almost unsettling. The Darkness itself has been vague, obviously starting in Shadowkeep, with only small hints, to which in Beyond Light, we picked those up, and pieced more together, as time goes on, either by Lightfall or The Final Shape, we will see the end, given it is the last DLCs in the Dark and Light saga.

      It actually has many tools of manipulation to tempt others to its ideology: the Pyramids themselves, the Ziggurat, the Nightmares, which can also torment its victims. The Egregore is another of its tools it’s been using to watch us for so long. It was responsible for turning Guardians in Beyond Light, as well as season of Arrivals. The Weapons of Sorrow also indirectly helped the Witness corrupt many Guardians. Though Shin took care of that. For so long, the Vanguard and others in the Tower have been wrong about why he should fear our true enemy. Don’t fear how the Witness can easily destroy us, fear what it can offer us.

      I think the best way for us to beat the witness would be in whatever dlc comes after we get our 3rd dark subclass where he has to flee from us after we show that with all he tried to corupt us with it did nothing realy.
      After all that in the future i hope we get some fused subclassess where we use both light and darkness at once as that is apparently what the witness want to do and if we do it first then that would be cool

    I'm assuming the witness has Psychokinesis abilities, he seems a lot like Professor X but on a larger scale.
    Multiple heads could play a part in it also. In Savathuns two truths and two lies, she said he used to be mortal, the traveler blessed his species with the light, but they became powerful and greedy and dangerous.
    He's able to manipulate our ghost fairly easy, enter our minds, and talk to us while casting an image of ourselves talking to ourselves.
    If he's just an entity "wearing the darkness like a cloak" he's definitely a powerful individual.
    His doesn't mean what he's saying, "The children of Sol is crying out in pain" The truth I believe is, this entity beat up on our advanced civilization of humans, no guardians were alive at that point, he's been trying to recruit us since they first arrived.
    We've taken out everyone he's aligned with so far, I don't believe he's worried, but he does see us as a gigantic threat.
    His crew has had their way with everyone except us, our specific guardians.

      I see more so that we caught his attention not because we destroyed the black heart, but because we did it not even a year after our resurrection. Our Guardian killed The House of Devils Archon, a Vex Gate lord, The House of Winter Kell, and made a noticeable dent in Cabal leadership; this isn’t counting year 1 strikes either or else the feats would be higher. I say our Guardian doing things quickly is what establishes them as a figure, and how the Witness would probably be keeping tabs on them. Also if you look at our Guardian’s kill count of powerful beings you’d see how high it is, not even counting other feats; that alone warrants aggression from the Witness

    What strength is there in being granted eternal life, a borrowed strength, another chance lost countless times. What hope is there when the only light left in the universe is the last, flickering light of the traveler you cling so desperately to. There is no equilibrium of light and dark to be had here, no yin to yang, no meaningful oscillation of night and day, only a light amidst the defaulting darkness everywhere around it. In darkness, there are no shadows, for there is no light to cast them, there are no shapes, for there is no light to draw their edge, and there is no weakness, for there is no light to expose you.
    I'm very much looking forward to meeting this Witness, as someone who seems to be in agreement, if not about solely embracing darkness, then wielding both light and dark together.

    Nice. Gotta say, I've really been going all in on Destiny 2 lore lately, especially leading up to Lightfall. Can't wait to see what comes next! I personally think Lightfall is going to get us to sympathize with The Witness in a believable way. Even Savathun had some redeeming qualities and I think Witch Queen was good practice for us to see that things won't always be clear cut.

      The dialogue in the mission has unfortunately been bugged since its release. Right before we approached the statue, it was also supposed to say: "Come to us. Do not be afraid." This is something fundamentally wrong with Bungie's scripting of the mission.

      @BryonYoungblood Год назад

      As well as how it didn't seem, to account for Strand when we come to Neomuna and Neptune. The Witness basically wants to sway us, but many Guardians' resolve is too strong to fall for its manipulations and half truths. Given we know it will do anything to get what it wants, like when we learned the Witness tricked Savathun when she was Sathona, to prevent the Traveler from blessing the Hive with the Light, and leading them to fall into the dark nature of its belief in the Final Shape, which ties to their Sword Logic. And it used things like Savathun's pride and Calus's lust for power to sway them to it and the Darkness, but they all fell eventually. Even if the Witness doesn't see itself as a god, it's underestimating us, like its Disciples and those that follow the Darkness like Eramis, Oryx, and such have, and it led to their defeats, so while things seem bleak now if you know the ending to Lightfall's campaign, there's still that hope waiting in the coming dawn. It won't be easy... but hey, it doesn't mean we can't win, given we thought we'd lose when it came to Oryx and his unleashing the Taken on the system.
