Uldren Sov: Difference between revisions

Line 258: Line 258:


With his spirit crushed, Crow meets with the Guardian, admitting that once he first arrived in the Last City, he told people little lies, nothing hurtful but enough to keep a distance from the truth. Once he got Uldren's memories, however, he learned that his previous self did the same thing. Now Crow fears that he may be the same as Uldren, down to the instincts, unable to prove to Zavala and Caiatl, to everyone else, that he was better than Uldren. Being unable to perform the Severance Ritual for now, Crow would nonetheless continue to take part in patrols on the Leviathan, even as the Guardian made audio contact with Calus himself, who would go on and explain the nature of his vessel, the [[egregore]] and even some moments of his past. On her part, Eris would console Crow about the nature of his Nightmare, that it's words are his own truth and that he can't fight it but accept them.

On her part, Eris would console Crow about the nature of his Nightmare, that it's words are his own truth and that he can't fight it but accept them.
In time, Crow would understand that Uldren Sov is a part of him just as much as Crow is a part of him and that his Nightmare can only be as strong as he lets it. Returning to the Derelict Leviathan to attempt the Severance Ritual again, Crow stands firm against his Nightmare's taunts, remaining either stoic or giving sarcastic taunts of his own. After placing his amplifiers and reaching the ritual site, Crow begins the severance which brings forth the Nightmare of the Fanatic once more. As the Guardian battled with Fikrul's Nightmare, Crow managed to prevail against his Nightmare, accepting that Uldren is a part of him and rather than simply deny his past self's mistakes, he can learn from them, which causes his Nightmare to turn into the Memory of Uldren Sov. His success in the ritual causes one of Calus's connections to fray, allowing Eris Morn to progress in preparing the other severance rituals.
Weeks later, after Zavala and Caiatl completed their own severance rituals, Eris would learn that they were too late as Calus had succeeded in entering the Lunar Pyramid and begin to merge his consciousness with the Pyramid, allowing him to gain control over its power. Gathering the Guardian, Crow, Zavala and Caiatl to take part in one last, desperate and massive Severance Ritual to stop Calus from assuming control over the Pyramid. As Crow worked on placing his amplifiers, he would face stiff resistance against Loyalist forces, forcing the Guardian to proceed alone. The Guardian would meet up with Caiatl within the Pyramid itself, in the Chantry of the Darkest Hour, and battle with Calus in his true Psionic form, battling his Scorn, Loyalists and the Fading Nightmares of the figures they had previously battled. Despite the odds, the Guardian and Caiatl prevail, pushing Calus back, with Crow, Zavala and Eris arriving in time to confirm that Calus had given himself over to the Witness. With the battle over, Crow would see the memory of his past self fade away.
