this assumption is heavily me pissing in the wind and out of my -blam!-, but in a previous leak, (very unbelievable leak btw, thats why i said pissing in the wind) that revealed seasons between witch queen in lightfall, [spoiler]1 particular season said that Shin Malphur would return in Season of the Gunslinger (don't remember the exact season, might be Y5 S2), and this game is quite known for bringing back the dead and making them significant characters. Even Saint becoming the Titan Vanguard was discussed in Season of the Splicer to replace Zavala (asked by Lakshmi) Thing is is if this leak is true, the Hunter Vanguard spot is wide open despite the Vanguard Dare, wouldn't be surprised if they made Shin the vanguard after they bring him back, Yet again this is all assumption off a leak so take it how you want it, it should be taken with the smallest grain of salt and just to sit in the back of your head.[/spoiler] Let me know what you think, bit of theorizing
