Savek, Betrayer for Xivu Arath: Difference between revisions

Alongside [[Kosis]], she was among the first to discover the rise of [[Cryptolith]]s around the [[Tangled Shore]]. Later she was corrupted into a Fallen [[Wrathborn]], and in the process was transformed from a [[Dreg]] into a four-armed monstrosity with the stature of an [[Archon]].

==History==

Savek served as a salvager in service of [[The Spider]] and his [[House of Spider|House]]; whose job is to collected scrap found in the [[Tangled Shore]] for the syndicate to resell on the black market. She had even work with the [[Uldren Sov|Crow]] on a few occasions out on the Shore.<ref name="Peace for Savek">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''Transcript: <https://www.ishtar-collective.net/interactions/the-crow-peace-for-savek-2 Peace for Savek>''</ref>

Savek was initially dispatched on a salvage operation to an wrecked [[Ketch]] belonging to the [[House of Kings]] alongside the rest for her crew, lead by an ambitious [[Vandal]] named [[Kosis]]. After establishing camp, she would be sent out northwesten for guard duty much to her dismay. The Dreg would hear the echoing whispers of the [[Cryptolith]] which she discovered within a nearby rocky cave no larger than a Servitor.<ref name="RATIONS">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''[[Lore]]: [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith|Call of the Cryptolith]] - [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith#II. RATIONS|II. RATIONS]]''</ref>

Reporting her findings back to camp, [[Kosis]] orders Savek and her fellow Dregs to dismantle the Hive structure for scrap;<ref name="WORTH">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''[[Lore]]: [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith|Call of the Cryptolith]] - [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith#III.

RETURN|IV. RETURN]]''</ref> Savek herself was enamoured by the beckoning whispers of [[Xivu Arath]] from the cryptolith; her body slowly becoming emaciated from lack of sleep and [[Ether]] as she found herself constantly standing at the mouth of the cave. She was left distracted and unfocused during her work routine and broke part of the Ketch's gyroscope she was dismantling in a moment of inattention.<ref name="WHISPERS">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''[[Lore]]: [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith|Call of the Cryptolith]] - [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith#V. WHISPER|V. WHISPER]]''</ref>  

Finally, Savek succumbs to the cryptolith's call alongside her Dreg colleagues. Now fully enthralled under the Hive god, she murders Kosis with her own [[Shock Blade]] she stole.<ref name="SWORD">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''[[Lore]]: [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith|Call of the Cryptolith]] - [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith#VII. SWORD|VII. SWORD]]''</ref> Standing before the cryptolith in her final hours, Savek transcends her [[Fallen]] form as her body ruptures new arms and is remade into a powerful [[Wrathborn]] before crossing into the [[Ascendant realm]] to join its new master.<ref name="UNMADE">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''[[Lore]]: [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith|Call of the Cryptolith]] - [[Lore:Call_of_the_Cryptolith#VIII.

===Season of the Hunt===

Under the God of War, Savek serves as the first of the [[Wrathborn Fallen]] after betraying the [[House of Spider]]. The Crow would even isolate and restrain the now ravanous Wrathborn Savek for questioning, only to find no semblence of the Eliksni it once was. A couple days later, [[The Guardian]] would draw out Savek at [[Sjursrest]] in [[Four-Horn Gulch]], where they put down the former Fallen out of her misery much to Crow's mourning.<ref name="Peace for Savek"/>
