You know Aksor, the Archon Priest that you are sent to kill during Winter's Run on Venus? Well I started looking into his backstory.
Reportedly, Aksor hails from the House of Kings. This is why he has a gold color scheme to his armor.
The House of Kings is a Fallen House that is known be very brutal and hold everyone (even their rival Fallen) in high disdain.
Aksor was captured when the Queen waged war against the House of Wolves out in the Reef and was[i] [b]then[/b] [/i]saved by the House of Winter's raid on the Prison of Elders.
If the House of Kings is supposed to be so cold toward outsiders, then [i]why[/i] did their Archon priest assist the Wolves (presumably away from his Servitor Prime Master), and why did Winter rescue him? Scavengers such as the Fallen do not appear to have a sense of comradeship to those clothed in the banner of a different House.
Also, when you face Aksor, there are banners of the House of Kings [b]everywhere[/b], when it was Winter that rescued him, and The Kings haven't ever been reported on Venus. All of the fallen that come out to aid Aksor during the Strike are from the House of Winter.
[u][i][b]CAN SOMEONE OUT THERE EXPLAIN THIS????!!!![/b][/i][/u]

I think the House of Kings are a superior force to the other houses. basically, If the Houses of Devils, Exiles and Winter are regular Fallen Troops, then the Kings are like Special Ops or something. an elite force that only the most powerful Fallen can be a part of. assuming the Strikes take place AFTER the Story, Winter's Kell, Draksis, is dead, so the House of Winter need a new leader. they rescued Aksor so that he could lead the House of Winter. the Battle of Twilight Gap proved that if the Fallen Houses unite as one army, they are an incredibly powerful force. Aksor could have helped the houses of Kings and Winter to become close allies, and maybe even convince the Devils and Exiles to join forces as well. then the Fallen as a whole could attempt to take the last City again, while it is strategically weak. but that's just my theory.

Looks like you got your answer with a lot of these posts. The thing with this strike that never added up for me is why are the vex attacking the fallen? What do they care about aksor being freed?
-
I'm guessing the House of Kings has some sort of connection to the House of Winter. Remember, EVERY Fallen House participated in the Battle of the Twilight Gap, and it's possible that the House of Kings has no issues with either the House of Wolves or the House of Winter, and on several times you see Fallen from different houses helping a different house. Remember that random Baron from the House of Winter in the Devil's Lair raid? It might be sorta like that. Kaliks Prime, Aksor's Prime Servitor, has not to have been confirmed to be in any house, so it could be House of Wolves or of the Kings. We have no clue what, but I'm just guessing Aksor was called to help the Wolves by the King's Kell and was captured alive and taken to the prison, when the House of Winter, who "[i]might[/i]" not even have a Prime Servitor or a Kell, wanting a figure of unparalleled power. Plus, Aksor was a ferocious fighter, who led a campaign against the light that crippled the Gaurdians for times to come.
-
Can someone explain the difference between a kell and archon?
-
He is in the House of Wolves enemy faction. He was captured by the Queen, but the House of Winter stole the capsule and took it to Venus. That is all my theory, though.
-
More importantly, what genius decided it was ok to let him have a shotgun when they locked him up?
-
As soon as you can tell me why the speaker reps the same emblem as crota all over his banners hanging from the walls I'll look into your conspiracy too
-
Something about the entire story in Destiny doesn't add up. Bungie doesn't even have time to explain why they don't have time to explain why their story doesn't make sense.
-
And why? If fallen thrive in the dark, do they spend so much time in the light?
-
Actually, Aksor is from the House of Wolves. He was captured by the forces of the Reef during the Reef-Wolves war and held in the Prison of Elders. However, the House of Winter raided the Prison and brought Aksor to Venus in an attempt to add him to their House. The House of Kings banners are probably an overlooked texture error and should be displaying the icon of the House of Winter.
-
Hopefully HoW could do some explaining come on bungie you have 4 months to make a good story!!

Edited by OLYMPUS VI: 2/7/2015 12:50:32 AMEasy, they're Fallen. Their common enemy is the Queen. I'm sure they would put their problems to the side to fight off a mutual threat.
-
Vandals look so cute to me :3 they re like im firing ma lasers at you qqqq
-
I think your problem is trying to make sense out of any of the blatant contradictions and continuity errors in Destiny's lore. It's just bad writing, there's no grand explanation.
-
Aksor is from the House of Wolves. The Queen imprisoned him after killing the wolf Kell. The House of Kings are only encountered in the Cosmodrome, especially around King's Watch. Aksor has some gold accents on his armor and there are gold colored banners near his cell. The banners only match in color, the House of Kings logo is not on it and the Kings armor is predominately gold.
-
Hold up, I could've sworn that in some story mission that we kill a House of Kings Baron? Or was it a Servitor? Can anyone refresh my memory?
-
Him, the guy on the ship, and the guy in the 2nd story mission all look EXACTLY the same. #ShapeshiftingLizards
-
Just a heads up its a really amazing story but try not to kill ur self her guys pretty sure bungie doesn't plan on revealing this not even in the house of wolves or not anytime soon .... Lot of ppl thought there was something with the mystery of kabr, and that more info would be give on Toland ...... And not a thing lol
-
Pimps and hoes, pimps and hoes
-
Well, Idk, Probably because the second he got out of his prison he was violently shot at by guardians, and the other fallen weren't shooting at him? Maybe?
-
I figure they were contracted to exfil Aksor, or did it freelance to gain favor.
-
Simple, crappy writers.
-
They are restoring him right? My thought was they were wanting to use him as a weapon seeing as they were losing the war and his house being so superior
-
I just like how when you get to Aksor, everything is normal volume, then all of a sudden magically turns up to max volume to make sure the whole neighborhood can hear "A CELL!!!!! FROM THE PRISON OF ELDERS!!!!!!" Then *poof* normal volume again. Movie magic
-
I believed our goal wasn't to kill the archon priest but to kill kalik prime. In the grimoire card I notice the queen been trying to find kalik prime but sadly to no avail so she "offered" archon priest to the house of winter to attract/find the servitor but sadly we foiled it because the archon priest wasnt out long enough to attract the servitor
-
You mean that guy on Winter's Run that teleports a few feet, walks around in circles and shoots the same shots over and over again?
