The problem with the "big reveal" at the end of the Taken strike
At the end of the Taken strike in the EDZ there's some supposedly "big reveal" that the boss is Red Legion. Leading to this conversation like, "Oh, how'd he get Taken if Oryx is dead? It must have been one of Oryx's sisters that's started getting all Took-y."
Oryx had been Taking civilizations for thousands of years before his defeat. Maybe millions. I forget. Is it somehow inconceivable that in all that time Oryx never ran into the Red Legion, a military force with a supposedly galactic presence? Makes more sense to me than one of Oryx's sisters Taking cabal in our solar system from whatever far off dimension they occupy.

I think it's plausible to assume that Oryx and the Cabal had never met. And the commander in this strike perhaps was Red Legion when he arrived here, but was Taken come time for the strike. Which means that someone is actively using Oryx's powers. And that person is not Oryx. You can see on Titan how active Savathun's Taken and Hive are. She is probably knowledge enough in Hive arcana that she can steal powers or somehow learn them. If it is her, remember that she hasn't even shown her own abilities. She's using her brother's army as pawns.
