Vexing Lore Questions

Why don't the Vex go back in time and kill us (and all other living things for that matter) before they became powerful? [spoiler]Because Quria declared this timeline to be a Failed timeline due to Oryx. His power was so great that the Vex couldn't take him on, so they said back off. Besides, Gorgon's seem to be the only ones who can erase things, and only that inside the Vault of Glass and at the Time Bridge. So maybe they can only do it near Vex Superstructures?[/spoiler] What is the identity of the Exo Stranger? [spoiler]The Stranger is a literal Deus Ex Machina, or "God from the Machine". She comes in to help us in our time of need and urges the plot to go along. Her identity is still shrouded in mystery, but we know a few things; first, she is a member of Future War Cult; second, she can cross multiple timelines, so she can be anyone; third and finally, she has some interest in us. I personally believe she is the Exo Version of Maya Sundaresh, but that's just a theory...[/spoiler] What gave Exos consciousness? [spoiler]Supposedly, Cayde-6 got his consciousness from a facility on Europa. He was originally human, so this leads us to believe that Exos obtained their intelligence from a human source[/spoiler] Is Mara Sov really dead? [spoiler]Maybe. It is hinted that she is still alive, but that is yet to be seen.[/spoiler] Is Oyrx really dead? [spoiler]Yes. We killed his Court, and all of his minions. Then we killed him. He says he still lives on in the Touch of Malice, but we know he died.[/spoiler] Who does Eris really serve? [spoiler]No one. She does collaborate with Osiris and Mara Sov tho.[/spoiler] Who was Cayde's "special someone"? [spoiler]Maya Sundaresh.[/spoiler] Where is the Cabal home system? [spoiler]Supposedly just outside our system, less than 1,000 Light Years away.[/spoiler] What are the other Fallen Houses? [spoiler]Devils, Kings, Wolves, Exiles, Winter, Scar, and Stone. Oh and House Judgement counts, yessss?[/spoiler] Can the Fallen be good? [spoiler]Eh. They are scavengers and murderers who don't see equality as an option, only a tyrannical Hierarchy with one Kell at the top and many, many little Dregs with limbs chopped off below them. They are also power hungry, so we don't know how well an alliance would last.[/spoiler] Is Skolas really dead? [spoiler]Yes. And no. Skolas died for sure, but he is also a part of the Vex Network. The Restorative Mind can bring parts of the Vex Network to our time, so maybe the Fallen use the Time Bridge like they used the Oracles.[/spoiler] What is the Darkness? [spoiler]Bad. No one really knows.[/spoiler] What is the Traveler? [spoiler]Good. And round. Again, no one really knows, besides that it used to guard the ancient Worm Gods.[/spoiler] What is the Traveler's purpose? [spoiler]To spread Light and promote cooperation[/spoiler] Who is Alpha Lupi? [spoiler]Some say the Traveler, I say a being which happens to know the Travelers every thought.[/spoiler] What is the Light? [spoiler]Good. Again, no one really knows.[/spoiler] Is Toland alive? [spoiler]Yes, he just exists as a spirit in the Oversoul Throne Realm.[/spoiler] Who was Dredgin Yor before he became Dredgin Yor? [spoiler]Don't really know this one tbh. I don't think there is enough information on him really.[/spoiler] Is Praedeath alive? [spoiler]Yea. He's just held prisoner inside the Vex Network.[/spoiler] Are the Ahamkara really extinct? [spoiler]Of course they are, oh bearer of mine :) But honestly, they can't really be killed as long as parts of their body exist. But that's just a theory.[/spoiler] Was Eao an Ahamkara? [spoiler]Yes.[/spoiler] What happened to Osiris and Saint- 14? [spoiler]??? No one really knows.[/spoiler] Is the Speaker really a good guy? [spoiler]Probably.[/spoiler]

I can already answer a few of these. Deep Stone Crypt gave Exos consciousness. Oryx is truly dead. Toland's body is dead but his spirit is alive. Praedyth is still alive, assuming we play the Daily version of Paradox.
