Capitalizing on the confusion sowed by the [[Vanguard]]'s misinterpretations of the "Truth to Power" manuscripts, Savathûn amassed tributes of [[Imbaru]] off the Guardians' attempts to understand her modus operandi. In doing so, however, she would also provide valuable intel hidden within the manuscripts that Ikora and [[The Hidden]] would decipher. | ||
