Quick clarifications for those who don't understand:
The Deep=the Darkness
The Sky=the Light
The Leviathan=an ancient Guardian of the Light. (A good Ahakmara?)
The Worms=ancient followers of the Darkness. (Bad Ahakmara?)
Fundament=Oryx's home"world." The remains of a solar system consumed within a gas giant. (When it references "diving" or the "storms above" this is speaking of the atmospheric layers of said gas giant. Oryx's continent, and indeed, every continent, floats on an upper layer of the giant.)

Edited by SlipperehPuppeh: 9/21/2015 1:55:38 AMCould it be that the Leviathan is the Hive's word for the Traveller? I haven't read the Book of Sorrows in its entirety yet, but I think it could be. We call it the Traveller, the Fallen call it the Great Machine, and maybe the Hive call it the Leviathan? Just a thought.

No: the Traveller is explicitly mentioned as separate from the Leviathan. It is an actual dragon, and servant of the Traveller. It would be a cool side name.

Pretty much. We don't know squat about the Leviathan, besides the fact that it was almost the warden for Eir, Ur, Xol, Yul, and Akka
