Nezarec and the haunted wepons

The new glaive we got is obviously in relation to Nezarec. One thing I couldn’t help but notice is that the haunted weapons seem to have an Egyptian theme to them, much like trials and Osiris. Concept art surrounding Nezarec has seemed to have inspiration. Form ancient Egyptian with Egyptian hieroglyphics being in the darkness Nezerac concept art related before d2 came out. I have question about Nezarec and his importance within the world of destiny. Does Nezarec have any relation to ancient Egypt (and if so, does this mean the traveler/pyramids have visited us even before the collapse and is his sin in relation to the darkness or Rhulk?). does he have any relations to Osiris, or is he Osiris? (I’ve heard Nezarec is able to resurrect himself, but this could be wrong). Are the haunted weapon’s appearance is inspired by Egypt like how trials gear is, and if the moon; the pyramid; and the leviathan are based of anything relating to Nezarec or inspired by any ancient Egyptian mythology?

  • When Nezarec was name dropped in the very beginning of D2’s life. He was little more than a Pre-Golden Age myth. Like the Christian God or any gods like him. However now that even Rhulk gifted Calus with a weapon bearing his name, it begs the question if he’s actually a physical being.

  • As far as anyone knows he’s little more than an old fairy tale. Until evidence shows otherwise, there’s not really room for speculation that has any backing.

      • Pretty sure some bunglo employee started writing about Nezarec, got sacked, and now a new one saw Nezarecs sin and though "huh what if I put the name in a glaive and maybe bunglo overlords will do something."

      • Could nezarac be the disciple within the moon pyramid? Or has it been dormant for too long?

        • I hope we can get some context on the Dungeon tomorrow. From what we can gather he's clearly a rather nasty and infamous Disciple.

        • Nezarec, currently, has no ties with Egypt. The character never really moved beyond concept stage due to story rewrites. So any new developments may see some attempt to tie him into old lore.

        • In the Nezarec's Sin lore tab, Nezarec is referred to as "The Final Form of Death." That's pretty telling with recent evidence. So if the Witness seeks the Final Shape/Form of death, that might mean Nezarec. Nezarec might be a more powerful entity than the Witness himself. Nezarec is not the Darkness however. The Darkness is an advocate of stagnition, not death. We see this in the nature of stasis. Also, the Deep of the Fundament seas was dense and threatened to make all still through its immense gravity. So The Witness and Nezarec work against the Darkness.

          • Nezarec used to be just a bedtime fable from the Old World. Pre-Destiny. Pre-Collapse. Pre-Traveler even. Now it seems like he’s an actual being. But don’t be fooled. He isn’t another Disciple. That line from Rhulk was said to Calus when gifting him the glaive. Calus is the Disciple. Not Nezarec.

              • "He is that which is end. That which covets sin. The final god of pain—the purest light, the darkest hour. And He shall rise again. When the guiding shine fades and all seems lost He will call to you. Fear not. All He offers is not as dark as it may seem. For Nezarec is no demon, but a fiend, arch and vile in ways unknown. He is a path and a way, one of many. And his sin—so wicked, so divine—is that he will never cower when dusk does fall, but stand vigilant as old stars die and new Light blinks its first upon this fêted eternity." [quote]Or is he Osiris...[/quote] Did you see where Osiris ends, and...his other began, he who never cowered at his end. Wrapped eternity in a paradox...it's slowly going to be shown. Also, just because Osiris exists, doesn't mean his opposite self can't be in the same time.
