'''Sjur Eido''' was the first [[Queen's Wrath]] and [[Mara Sov]]'s lover. She was killed during the [[Reef Wars]], and succeeded as Queen's Wrath by [[Petra Venj]].

Sjur Eido was one of the first-generation Awoken, one of the [[891]]. Politically an [[Eccaleist]], she was originally one of Queen [[Alis Li]]'s Paladins, but was swayed by the [[Diasyrm]] and defected to her during the [[Theodicy War]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Imponent III]]''</ref> During the war, she slew one of the 891.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Fideicide II]]''</ref> When the Diasyrm vanished at the end of the Theodicy War, Sjur suspected she had been murdered in secret by Mara Sov, and stormed into a court of the [[Gensym Scribes]] demanding to avenge her. To avoid a second Theodicy War, the Scribes lent their resources to her mission.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Imponent I]]''</ref>

Alis Li abdicated the throne and was replaced by [[Nguya Pin]]. When, much later, Queen Pin unexpectedly converted to Eccaleism at the behest of an anonymous masked woman, Sjur entered her court suspecting Mara's involvement. She deduced which of Pin's courtiers was Mara in disguise, but confronting her, found herself entranced by Mara's beauty and could not bring herself to kill her. Therefore, in order to fulfill her vendetta, she challenged Mara to a "duel to the agony" against her most beloved companion.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Imponent II]]''</ref> Mara summoned [[Uldren Sov]] to fight on her behalf.  

Uldren and Sjur agreed to three duels: once with knives, once with guns, and once with fighter aircraft. The first ended in a draw, the second went to Sjur, and the third went to Uldren. With the duel to the agony inconclusive, Sjur submitted her fate to Mara Sov, who bade Sjur to join her Eccaleist quest to the stars.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Imponent III]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Imponent IV]]''</ref>

Over the next decades, Sjur became Mara's closest companion and emissary.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Imponent V]]''</ref> When Mara and her faction departed Distributary by wormhole ship, Sjur served as Mara's sensor officer.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Palingenesis I]]''</ref>

When the Awoken, newly settled in the [[Reef]], learned that humanity still existed on [[Earth]], a schism developed between those who stayed loyal to Mara Sov and those who wanted to bring their resources to help Earth. Sjur reported on the situation to Mara, as well as a premonition of her own death when the [[Fallen]] inevitably tracked the Earth-altruists back to the Reef. By then, she had already established herself as Mara's bodyguard.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Revanche III]]''</ref> When the schism turned violent, Sjur was separated from Mara and exchanged fire with several of the mutineers. In the end, Mara commanded for the mutineers to be left peacefully alone.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Revanche IV]]''</ref>  As the Earthborn Awoken began assisting the struggling human remnants, Sjur brought an analysis of their efforts to Mara.

Afterwards, Mara was proclaimed Queen. A Fallen [[Ketch]] arrived less than an hour later, having tracked the Earthborn Awoken to their source. Though Awoken weaponry destroyed the Ketch instantly, a fleet of [[Skiff]]s had already deployed and began raiding. Sjur, fighting in an armored combat shell, killed the commanding [[Baron]] and destroyed his [[Walker]] with a demolition charge, knowing that she would also die in the resulting explosion. However, the blast threw her clear completely unharmed -- the result of Mara's unconscious and burgeoning paracausal abilities.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Revanche V]]''</ref>  

Mara and Sjur eventually drifted apart (though they remained on good terms), as a result of both Mara's incipient apotheosis and her desire to see Sjur achieve her own fullest potential.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Telic II]]''</ref>  

As the Awoken civilization prospered, Sjur became Queen's Wrath. Her skill with a bow was legendary. She was the only Awoken to survive an [[Aphelion]] attack and hunted down many traitorous Ahamkara.  

At some point, she introduced a [[Vandal]], [[Mithrax]], to the Dreaming City. She was so renowned even the Fallen respected her, who called her Siyuriks pak Variisis ("Sjur, the Unrelenting"). <ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyLore/comments/9gcjjp/pilgrimage_patrol_lore/</ref>

As part of a quest to understand herself, Mara went to Sjur to make a confession. At the time, Sjur was making a list of incredibly stupid and fatal bounties for Guardians to undertake. <ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Tyrannocide II]]''</ref>

In the privacy of space, Mara confessed to Sjur that she had been the first Awoken, and had denied them the chance to become gods when they first self-created on Distributary, and was therefore responsible for all the mortal suffering the Awoken had ever experienced past that point. Sjur brushed off Mara's concerns, believing that her actions were intended for a greater good, and kissed her before accusing her of confessing only to hide some greater secret. Mara explained that she planned to become a god, but Sjur found her explanation incomprehensible and moved on to other matters.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Tyrannocide III]]''</ref>
