From the Records of the Ishtar Collective
So you wanted me here. Is it about Subject 12?
Kind of. We've made an astonishing discovery about the Underworld.
What about it?
Subject 12 has started to react on certain words, like "glass", "maze" and "big". We don't know why, though. We've been digging deeper into its mind, and...
[Indistinct background sound]
And?
It is confirmed. The specimen confirmed it. The Underworld isn't just an Underworld. It's something bigger.
Get to the point. I have limited time here.
Okay. So according to the reports I got from Sundaresh, it said that the Underworld is an anchor in this universe. It connects to an indeterminate amount of other universes, other realities.
It "said"?
Well, I don't know. Vex specimens doesn't have vocal cords. The team were very brief about those seconds of communication. It maybe wrote, on a screen or something?
But what about the "Anchor"? What does it mean to them?
I'd guess it's the hub of their universes. It, together with its inhabitants, has the ability to create, to destroy, to erase, and it's definitely linked to every Vex in some way. That's what we th-

What- what's going on?
I don't know. Something in the struture must have broken. Get to the exit!
[Loud bang - scream of pain]
No! Get out of here! Get to the Academy! Tell them-

Excerpts from a private conversation of Sakrix, the Illuminated Mind
Being a Vex supporting the Last City is not always so easy. You always get these looks, like, oh, there's a murderous, lifeless robot which "family" (if that's an appropriate appellation on my former fellows) lives for hunting and killing Guardians for fun. I should shoot that monster before anything happens.
And maybe that is true. Maybe my race is made up of mindless war-machines, mercilessly controlled and forced into battle by stronger units. Like me.
In your language, I would be called a Minotaur. I have abilities that humanity could only dream about. I can simulate a thousand outcomes in every siuation every second, so I always know when something is coming. I can take control over a million weaker troops simultaneously and turn them against each other. The Vanguard agrees on that I give them some kind of advantage on the battlefield, but they don't like me. No one does, not in that way. Well, except you. And Cayde, but Cayde likes everything that he can joke about, and everything that can give him an excuse to leave the Tower. But he isn't always very positive either. They try to hide it, but I can anticipate it.
Oh well. I have a... task that I need to take care of. I will give you further inputs as soon as possible.
Now go. You have Taken in the EDZ to take care of.

- ""Sakrix? The Vex? No, i haven't seen it in a while. I think Zavala sent it to Venus for further investigation about the Vault. Yes, I'm referring to it as it, because I don't trust Vex. You shouldn't do it either.""
