Just Completed A Full Run Of The Coil, And It Was A Lot Of Fun! I Can Definitely See How It's Hard To

Just completed a full run of the Coil, and it was a lot of fun! I can definitely see how it's hard to do with matchmaking tho. The first attempt we did, we had a hunter just flying through, so we weren't getting enough shards for the secret chests. The second time, we had a strand titan who was really good and we got through the whole thing in an hour (It was a bit worrisome tho doing the last bit of boss DPS with no lives lol). We definitely got lucky that time with the random titan we paired up with. But yeah! It was fun! I really liked how it went back and forth between collecting/platforming and the boss fights. Plus the added difficulty of it progressively getting harder was fun. And it's in the Dreaming City, so it's right up my alley.

I absolutely love that our guardian was the one to figure out the 15th wish. Like I already headcannon that my warlock is super artsy and part of the Hidden, but this just cements it. Also, the young wolf must be really good at puzzles at this point for them to be like, "hear me out. Savvy has the long awaited 15th wish on her wing." Like, it makes sense when we think about us finding the Ahamkara egg, but idk how the YW went from dots on Savvy's wing to the actual symbols we need to punch into the Wall of Wishes. I would love to know more about how we came to the conclusion of the possible four symbols to use.

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.

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.
