As part of a quest to understand herself, Mara went to Sjur to confess. 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]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Awoken of the Reef|The Awoken of the Reef]], [[Lore:The Awoken of the Reef#Tyrannocide II|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 in the 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 the 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]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Awoken of the Reef|The Awoken of the Reef]], [[Lore:The Awoken of the Reef#Tyrannocide III|Tyrannocide III]]''</ref>
