Despite its stoic nature, The Witness is nonetheless a fearsome being and is often dreaded by its own followers, who very clearly fear its wrath. Savathûn, herself a god who had the power of the Light and resurrection, would rather sequester the Traveler than attempt to confront the Witness directly. Eramis, once freed from her Stasis cocoon, is explicitly motivated by fear of what the Witness will do to her and her [[House of Salvation|House]] now that she has failed to gather the Pieces of [[Nezarec]] and failed to activate [[Abhorrent Imperative]]. Rhulk, although much more subtle about it, is quick to beg the Witness for forgiveness upon his final defeat. Calus, normally unflappable and full of braggadocio that the Witness is wasting its power, is quickly cowed by the wrath of the Witness, who quickly looms large upon Calus in anger at his commentary. All of the above suggests that its emotionless demeanor hides a barely-concealed state of constant rage at the world around it. | Despite its stoic nature, The Witness is nonetheless a fearsome being and is often dreaded by its own followers, who very clearly fear its wrath.
