Oryx, a King's Fall analysis

Before we could slay him, Oryx had Taken the power within his sword, Willbreaker, and used it to power himself thus he became the Sword-Logic. He became power, and in his throne world, power is truth. "Oryx inhabits a world where power is truth."- Echo of Oryx " Oryx was challenged, yes, but challenged in the way of the Hive, which is to say that challenge is worship — is challenge — is power." - King's Fall "Brother Auryx, said SAVATHÛN, do not forgive my betrayal. Instead, take vengeance upon me for what I did at the dry moon! And AURYX made war on her, in worship of the Deep. Between them stood XIVU ARATH saying, stop, or I will kill you, war is mine and I am strongest. This was how they worshipped." - The High War, Books of Sorrow Doxology - a usually liturgical expression of praise to God. By challenging Oryx in his world, the challenge became praise to Oryx's god, the Darkness. With that praise Oryx could use his power to call upon the Darkness. As long as could harm Oryx, he could never call the Darkness or and keep him form regaining the Darkness's favor. As said before, we can only win by using the power of our enemies. In the raid, we stole Oryx's power, the power to take. The Vessel of Oryx made immortal as Oryx himself was immortal. With the Taken power we temporaily took Oryx immortality and killed Orges who were full of stolen light which had been corrupted. "How did you even recognize that benighted draught for what it was? Do you not know that the Hive pursue Light precisely for the purpose of devouring it with slavering jaws and slick greedy gulping throats? How did you take (or rather, un-Take) the Blighted Light that Oryx gathered to offer in sacrifice to Akka, and ignite it so that it burned and burned the Darkness? It was barely Light anymore. But you took it. And when you took it, you did not keep it. You set it free." - Grimoire King's Fall We were untouched as we had stolen Oryx's immortality an thus could not be hurt. As he failed to harm us, he took our Guardians one by one to be killed by his shadow or by doxology, praising the darkness. In his last effort, he tried one last call to the darkness, but he was moved and became untrue. Here is a link in case you haven't defeated Oryx yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=os7KhoU6V8g
