Unbeknownst to the Vanguard, Asher continued to explore the Vex network as a digital entity for unknown reasons. He would only ever reveal his presence to the material world in the event that the Nexus itself bled into reality by either sending a Harpy or creating projections of his original body, and [[Mithrax, Kell of Light|Mithrax]] implies from his transmissions through radiolaria that his ventures are extremely painful to his consciousness. | Unbeknownst to the Vanguard, Asher continued to explore the Vex network as a digital entity for unknown reasons.

At an unknown point in time, Asher discovered an access point to the portion of the Nexus connected to [[Neomuna]]. He would later use this to monitor the Guardian as they led [[Partition|excursions]] into the network to stop the [[Shadow Legion]] from damaging its integrity, with [[Quinn Laghari]] finding cryptic messages whose signatures matched his name. | At an unknown point in time, Asher discovered an access point to the portion of the Nexus connected to [[Neomuna]].

A week after [[The Witness]] communed with [[The Veil]] and vanished into the resulting portal made on the Traveler, Asher would use the Nexus to contact Mithrax and the Guardian from the [[European Dead Zone]], using a Harpy like he had previously done during Lakshmi's coup. Following his guidance, the two discovered a rebuilt Brakion pursuing him for tampering with the Nexus's data. After Brakion was stopped, Asher rewarded them with [[Vexcalibur|a specialized glaive]] designed to break the Vex's security protocol and weaponize the barrier technology that Brakion had previously employed to fight him and the Vanguard. | |||
The current physical state of Asher remains unknown. Though his original body remains in some aspect, it is left ambiguous as to whether it still exists in reality or has been transmuted entirely into data, much like the [[Kabr's Glass Aegis|alleged voice]] of [[Kabr, the Legionless]]. | |||

His surliness may be in part be driven by a deep-seated anxiety regarding his gradual assimilation by the Vex, and his frustration that all his efforts to halt it have failed.<ref name=GS/> Similarly, Asher possesses a great deal of guilt for what happened to his Ghost during his original mission in the Pyramidion. He attempted to cure its condition, but failed. He also considered ending his Ghost to spare it from the Vex modifications it received, though he couldn't bring himself to do it. Asher therefore considers himself a coward for that. | His surliness may be in part be driven by a deep-seated anxiety regarding his gradual assimilation by the Vex, and his frustration that all his efforts to halt it have failed.<ref name=GS/> Similarly, Asher possesses a great deal of guilt for what happened to his Ghost during his original mission in the Pyramidion.
