"Tell me, oh honored guest. Don't you want to escape? This Throne World is indistinguishable from my own mind. Every step taken, every bullet fired, I keep and count them all."

— Savathûn, the Witch Queen.

The Court of Savathûn, also known as the High Coven is the Throne World of Savathûn, the Witch Queen. After she was revived as a Lightbearer, Savathûn reforged most of her realm with the Light instead of Darkness. It became available as a Destination in Destiny 2.

History[edit]

Realm of the Witch Queen[edit]

This section needs expansion. You can help Destinypedia by expanding it.

As with her siblings Oryx, the Taken King and Xivu Arath, God of War, Savathûn created her Throne World within the Ascendant realm using the power of her Worm symbiote and her own force of will. It served as a refuge for her soul should she ever be killed in battle, as well as a means of connecting the far corners of the Hive's dominion in the physical plane.

Following his defeat on Mars, Nokris was drawn to a simulated singularity of the High Court and made a pact with Savathûn, taking command of her Taken forces sent to the Cradle on Io.

Reforged in Light[edit]

After Savathûn's death and subsequent resurrection by her Ghost Immaru the Witch Queen retreated to her Throne World. There with the help of her brood Savathûn began reshaping her Throne World in the image of the Light, bringing to life huge ghostly cathedrals which rose from the dark swamps below.

However Savathûn's control of the Throne World was not absolute, the dark swamps where her Light had not touched became infested by the Scorn, who now served the Witness. Thus Savathûn's Throne World became a battleground, as the Hive and Scorn vied for control.
