#Xur location

[thefirstknife]

Hey Bel, I was wondering if you or one of your followers might be able to give me a rundown on the Nine, specifically as related to Prophecy; I just recently read the Ishtar entry on Eris and Drifter’s dialogue that (used to I guess) play throughout, and I’m pretty lost as to how Orin became the Emissary, how Eris knew her, why the Nine made her their Emissary, what their answer to the questions posed by us might mean now that we know so much more about Light and Darkness, that sort of thing? You’ve probably answered something like this before so feel free to kick me in that direction if so lol. Thanks for all you do for the community! 🩷🩷

No problem!

You can still get all dialogues in Prophecy! You get some at the start, and ofc at the end, but when you return to the big deserted area after defeating the second encounter, you can get dialogues. However, you have to find the little copy of the Emissary just floating around on each of the areas.

So, "the wasteland" (the big desert area) has 5 locations that are from the planets that were taken by the Pyramids at the end of Arrivals (for some reason, two for Mercury). When you get back to this area after the cube encounter, the Emissary will spawn in a specific order. It's always Titan first; if you don't go there first, you won't see her on other areas. After Titan, it's Mercury (Infinite Forest gate), then Io and then Mars. You can watch them all here: there's several per location. Alternatively, if you have the time and patience in-game, you can listen to them once, then kill yourself before you proceed to the next encounter. That will wipe you and restart you in the area and you'll be able to listen to them again. Sometimes you'll get repeating lines, but sometimes new ones will play.

Orin's story is detailed in her lore book, Ecdysis! In short, she was one of the passengers on the Yang Liwei, so the original Awoken in the Distributary. She was friends with Sjur! After leaving the Distributary, she left to Earth where she ends up dying and becoming a Guardian (Titan). Later down the line, after Mara met her again (this time as a Guardian), Mara tasked her with helping figure out how Sjur died. This is the start of her connection to the Nine.

Sjur "died" mysteriously and only a strange coin was found on her body. A strange coin is the little relic that is associated with Xur and therefore the Nine. In her search, Orin found Xur (and got terrified, resulting in breaking his back with her hammer; this is why Xur is standing that way, his back is broken). Her meeting with Xur left her somewhat changed and she started experiencing weird things that were pulling her to the Nine. Over time, she also met the Drifter and after realising that he lied to her about his identity, she snapped and went to look for the Nine full-time. She found them and became the Emissary.

I don't think it's ever specified how she and Eris knew each other, but it is most likely through Mara (if there's any piece of lore that explains this, feel free to share). But yeah Drifter confirmed they were friends "back in the day."

The whole conclusion to Prophecy is really interesting for us now because it shows that it was essentially... well. A prophecy. The Nine used it to tell us that the Light and Darkness are not some sort of moral opposing forces (confirmed now) and that they're both just tools that can be used in different ways, for both good and bad (also confirmed). This idea is also present in the mechanics as well, as we have to utilise both light and dark to progress and get things done.

It's a really cool dungeon! Though a lot of the context is now missing. It came out in Arrivals as a sort of precursor to the planets leaving, which is why there's a lot of imagery about them, especially the wasteland. It was also a sort of an intro into how we'll eventually need to use stasis, by showing us that Light and Darkness are tools we can use and that we shouldn't be rejecting the Darkness on the idea that it's inherently something bad (or that the Light is inherently good).

Wei Ying is a Clever Boy..

I’ve just realised what a clever little mind fucker Wei Ying is.

When I first read the Yi City Arc I thought Wei Ying’s plan was solely to make Xue Yang give away his own location, but on a second read, I’ve realised his plan serves two purposes. The first I’ve just mentioned. The second I’ve only just picked up on.

To win against Song Lan, Xue Yang makes him so angry, giving him a detailed account of how he made Xiao Xingchen kill villages full of innocent people. He can no longer fight calmly and Xue Yang wins.

He does the same thing again after A-Qing warns, Xiao Xingchen, that the guy he treated is Xue Yang. Xue Yang wins the fight by mentally breaking him down, by telling him he killed Song Lan.

Xue Yang doesn’t expect Xiao Xingchen to kill himself but that’s how it ends.

Wei Ying uses the same tactic to help Lan Zhan kill Xur Yang.

‘Go Ahead and laugh yourself to death, and you still won’t be able to piece Xiao Xingchen’s soul together. He finds you repulsive, and yet you still had to try and drag him back to play with you.’

It goes on the two of them, for some time. Xue Yang even knows what Wei Ying is doing, but he continues to give himself away. A-Qing taking over to help when Xue Yang finally stops giving himself away, but it’s too late.

Wei Ying is a sneaky little guy.

Where is Xur: Location Today, Nov 25, 2022 (Witch Queen Edition)

If Xur is still around, where is he now? Season 16 is now in its sixteenth week since his arrival. As for Xur’s future, we don’t know much. Given that many of his former haunts are now off-limits. EDZ and Tower are exceptions. This new DLC should be exciting to explore for the first time because they added fresh locations for his arrival. To all the Guardians of Destiny 2, Xur, the hooded trader,…
