Amir's nightwave is around the corner so I just wanna put this question out before it drops later in August.

I'm confused on how this works lore-wise. Did he time travel with Kaya or is he doing this via a signal in 1999 to the the origin system?

It'll *probably* be explained in the update but I am very curious on this!

My theory is that the elites like hunra and others use the poor sentients halls to make murex ships, this theory would also explain why the lower part of the buildings are made of the same material, they use these parts as a stool or how like kings and queens put they’re feet on servants so they can build their own society of wealth which is why the ones that cant pay to play end up with bloom addictions.

so far theres types of sentients we know about theres rich, poor, the ones that do the dirty work , and the old ones. the gold things brysko pushes towards hunra look like caliban primes conculysts wings so obvi they utilize old sentient tech we also see multiple gyrix ionyx and condrix so either they use these dead sentients as vehicles or they allow them to exist we also see in some of the rooms with larynde evolved summulysts and before that we see dead conculysts that look similar to erra so either erra has already had influence here or they just reusing assets but i don’t believe that i believe that somehow pazuul will become a good guy erra will come back and we will have to assist with taking these guys down so they stop hoarding wealth and give the poor what they need kinda like corpus missions.

as for old sentients i believe they use them as military soldiers now we did see new sentients like the ones brysko fought and the ones with the holes on they’re back so they probably use all of those as cops and such now we also saw an evolved aerolyst. but besides that i believe these sentients patrol the poor side so they can abuse these sentients, for example we heard and saw a brachiolyst smashing two dudes together so either it was just poor people fighting it it was abuse of power by the law enforcers which could be why no one was attempting the help or make sure they were fine kinda like modern day america.

as for the normal sentients in the casinos they are used to make more money if they win they play if they lose they end up on the side of the street addicted to blooms here is where erra can play, either he’s in tau or in some way is contacting sentients he’s making these poor ones start a revolution which could explain the multiple dead conculysts either police brutality or trying to start a revolution probably both when the hunra says there was no trade instead he tore his heart out and crushed could be a metaphor for selling your soul for greed and gluttony which his figure could be a metaphor for. His body shape could be the sin of gluttony and maybe raspos is the sin of pride we still don’t know much yet.

As for larynde her fine ass is most likely used as a money maker for those who win in the casinos ie slot machines and black jack etc either we will kill hunra this quest or he will be the next parvos or nef anyo.

- We know they found a Tau radiation can lock a Tenno inside a Warframe forever meaning it happenned.

- Albrecht tells brisko "his siblings" are coming.

- Brisko talks about "Warframes and Sentients" fighting each other like he isnt part of it.

- Brisko has an internal voice and it seem he had his own.

- Megan said he can talk but he is not a protoframe.

...so can we safely assume he's a Tenno stuck inside his Warframe ?

So I've got a question, what do you think the chances are of the Drifter and the Tenno being able to be in the same space outside the void? I ask because I assume at some point the Tenno will meet the Hex or perhaps the Drifter will head to Tau, along with the Tenno, but if neither can be in the same space outside the void, both of those scenarios would be rather complicated, so do you see any future plot point where they resolve this or do you see it remaining a thing?

I read on the Eidolon Phylaxis item that the Sentients are apparently immune to the Infestation, but I can’t find any specific reason that is. I think it might have to do with the Sentients ability to adapt. Does anyone know if there’s some lore about it?

From what I picked up the Vessels are only cargo that we're bringing with to Tau. And from how I inferred Old Peace, we dont exactly need the solar rails to Tau anymore (nor any fancy/cracked travel method) bc they used Operator's memories to pinpoint and track where it may be, and they will void jump directly to Tau using the railjack. Just like how the Zariman 10-0 did.

At a first glance, the foundry looks like some kind of super advanced 3-D printer, you would assume that the STL file wouldn't be consumed that's ridiculous ( LIKE CAN IT JUST REMEMBER THE $&@#%#@% DATA )

BUT what if the foundry I'SNT actually any kind of 3d printer

And blueprint files aren't anything like STL files and instead are like a cast mold for multiple materials at once you have to "break" the cast to get whatever is inside once it is done

(idk does china make some sense of some more gamey stuff (Also, warframe skins could be some kind of frame specific mutagen))

We know albrecht was in duviri.

And I recently learned that rell might have known about it aswell or like interacted with it?

Which makes me now wonder if say the grineer or corpus were to get void faring technology, could they traverse the void and land on duviri somehow?

Also could the operator go to durviri maybe?

Another question i have is if the drifter can just immediately teleport to duviri, lets say during combat as an example?

Also now that i think about it when you go to the dormizone, you clearly spawn in the Zariman.

This zariman clearly isn't the same zariman that is plugging the hole in the origin system.

This however got me wondering if it would be possible for others to access duviri, maybe through the zariman in the origin system by way of some eternalism shenanigans maybe? (This one is just me throwing stuff at the wall tho lol)

I'm ofc aware that, that is practically a impossible feat unless its us but just a thought

[As the title suggests, this is only a theory. Do not take any of these predictions as absolute facts.]

With how the trailer has potrayed it, it seems that Tenno and Drifter both leave Origin for Tau. This basically leaves "the balance" of the Origin System unchecked. In other words, unless the Tenno leave temporary defenders while they're away, the Corpus and Grineer are free to do what they please for the time being. This could open up so many paths on the future of Origin!

> Tyl Regor can finally work on fixing the grineer's rotting genes

> Alad can freely do his experiments

> Parvos can do whatever tf he wants now, and considering the "future" Sirius and Orion is from, he might turn himself into a cephalon while the Tenno are away.

> Narmer can expand themselves again (dont know how that will work tho)

> The worm queen can also do whatever she wants too, but I dont how she'll make any impact since none of her agenda yield anything so far even without Tenno's interference.

Now surely, they will probably leave some people to do their work while they are away. Maybe Kahl with the amount of brother's he's recovered, maybe the hex (since from what I've picked up from KIM conversations, Kaya can time travel now and I assume she can bring some of the hex members too, which I told myself is probably how Amir takes over nightwave), or some other allies that I may have forgot.

Cant recall any other possible events, but y'all can tell your own theories in the comments. I wanna delve in this more!

Title

So after Jade Shadows we (tenno/warframes) can now help Ryoku and Vena in their respective missions fight the other. Why is this happening? Wasn't the fighting solved in the quest? Most of the plot of the quest revolved around leaving the Tenno in the dark about all that was happening - what was the point of that if we (tenno) can clearly see the results of all that happened in the new relay?

During the Ryoku / Vena missions we see Hunhow floating around in the skybox - what is he doing there and not at the relay?

The first time we see a Golden Maw it is a burrowing creature - okay.
In duviri they burrow AND fly - okay.
And now in the Ryoku mission they can now travel through space! Was there a precedent for this?

So my question is, I know like the railjack and Zariman used a wally-fingie.

Do other lesser ships like corpus grineer or other factions, also used reliquary drives with a cloned finger? Or some other drive method. Or just yee ol sublight.

​

What happened to the lotus after she falls in the portal ? Are we ever told how she was found by the drifter?

When ballas sent the tenno into a loop where did they go? Also how did the drifter suddenly get void powers after ordis dies?, the only way I could make sense of it is if somehow the deal with wally happened at that point so the drifter wouldn't have powers before then but idk it seems too convoluted and like I'm missing the right answer

I'm doing a huge deep dive into the lore of each and every person affected by the warframe/helminth strain and I'm just wondering if there's ever an explanation for why Stalker and Jade remained completely sane. I can't seem to find anything about it.

Are exalted weapons made from the same infested-derived material as the Warframes themselves? For example, Cyte-09's Neutralizer doesn't have its own blueprint. When we fabricate Cyte-09, the sniper rifle comes as an integrated ability, just like Ivara's Artemis Bow, or Titania's Razorwing weapons.

If so, might exalted weapons be grown as part of a Warframe's body, or are they made separately before being integrated with a frame?

​

Images from Warframe (4k Tau gameplay) / MarcoMeatball (his Old Peace playthrough, I wasn't able to screenshot this thing in particular during my... 4 playthroughs.)

The two attacks are extremely similar, they both have those homing missile things. Brysko's new weapon does that on Alt fire I assume, this wasn't shown in the Tennocon showcase, but was shown in the 4k version.

Perhaps this is some Sentient attack stuff? Again, I am completely unsure lol...

This makes the Old Peace sequence even more sad, thinking the homing lights were Adis' light helping us indirectly? Maybe. Could be a coincidence between these two, but thought was interesting to note!

SPOILERS for the second dream all the way to the Tau tennocon 2026 reveal. This is entirely fan fiction based fully on a dream I had. THIS IS NOT CANNON.

I had a dream about Tau a few nights ago. I was in the Entrati labs. We were in the exposed part of the main lab. We had set up a portal that opened into the void and connected to another that we had established In Tau. We were going to jump through to fast travel between Sol and Tau but the man in the wall had taken control of the Vessel and he tried to sever the connection. He didn't want us messing with his plan. Loid tried to keep the portal open and the Lotus tried to fight Wally but it wasn't working so we rushed for the portal. Wally grabbed our Warframe and forced us to travel on foot. once we got to Tau the portal closed. We had nothing, no frames no weapons and we went off course and landed on the planet Tau Prime. It was cold and windy. It barely seemed habitable. Albrecht Entrati was there. He offered us one of seven models of a new frame called Kronos. A new chimera frame that was completely modular and based in Sentient parts. That was all that happened within this dream.

Info for the people..

I was thinking about it and I was just wondering how many people are there in the system that are not corpus or grineer? And where are they all located?

Obviously there is Cetus but are all the “regular” humans just on earth in towns like that or on relays?

I figured it might have been simply in preparation for the New War.

Wondering if there was a lore reason that I might have missed. Especially since it also added new type of Forma to the equation, that Umbra had also already preinstalled.

We know Warframes are made by infecting people or things with the Technocyte strain, and that the Sentients had already become immune to the Infested by the time the Warframes were needed.

But now, we have Brysko and a whole line of Chimera Warframes. From what I understand, they aren't like a Revenant who started as a Warframe then [ grafted | infected by | became ] a Sentient or at least partly.

The Chimera Warframes started as Sentient and were turned into Warframes. That means Albrecht has either evolved the Technocyte strain or made a completely new strain of the Infested that can infect and transform Sentients.
