There Is A Lore Entry This Season Where There Is An Awoken Celebration Mentioned. It's Called The "Night

There is a lore entry this season where there is an awoken celebration mentioned. It's called the "Night of Ascents" and it's a yearly celebration of the awoken leaving the Distributary. Some awoken space magic allows them to view this journey. I absolutely love how we got to see a new bit of awoken culture! I wonder if the awoken in the last city also celebrate it. I can definitely see this being something both reef and earth born awoken celebrate.

Reminder to everyone to drink your water right now

Oh gosh. I really hope this is why cayde is around in the Final Shape. Honestly it would be an interesting reason for Cayde to be back.

But if Crow gets his wish, I wonder what the consequences will be of it this time? Maybe this is why Cayde is only in the Traveler. Will Cayde actually lead us in the right direction towards the witness? I know Bungie is marketing it as, "hey guys, hang out with your vanguard buddies one more time!" But perhaps Cayde will lead us astray. Or perhaps Cayde is fine as a ghost and some other thing will be messed up now. I guess we have seven months to see.

Also, poor Crow. He's probably not gonna trust Mara or himself with this new manipulation.

Unforseen Consequences exotic ship lore. Welp. I think this more or less solves why Cayde is in the portal. It might not just be the Traveler reconstructing our journey. It's because Crow wished for it. He is clearly not talking to real Mara here, and instead it's an Ahamkara apparition, mimicking how Uldren spoke to the same. It literally says that "the illusion fades" and then she invokes anthem anatheme.

We know Crow will get his wish. However. What will be the unforseen consequences.

Discovered Mara's hot tub. Decided to test it out.

Now I have a comic idea of Minerva on a little ghost floatie in the hot tub with Edgewise floating above, telling him there are more pressing issues, like placating Riven.
