Ikora: We've received no more transmissions from Maya Sundaresh. Her facility inside Nessus is empty. Has she reentered the VexNet?
Osiris: More than likely. We can search for her, but she is well versed in hiding among the simulations. Our efforts will not bear fruit.
Ikora: She escaped with the Echo. We've failed.
Osiris: No. No, we put an end to her plan, and saved Chioma Esi from continued destruction at Sundaresh's hands.
Ikora: That might be enough.

So I guess all of the House Light Splicers that helped find Quira are just on vacation or something.

The new lore book entry says that Maya is overwriting her trails with a new simulation, making it impossible to track her

I didn’t even bother finishing this. Season was boring AF and Maya was a dud. She’s not a worthy villain and crappy plot armor is the only reason why we didn’t bury a Gjallarhorn rocket in each of her eye sockets and call it a day.

I'm disappointed, but unsurprised considering how Bungie has consistently failed at portraying the Vex as the existential threat they're supposed to be.

fr, just give them a Commander ffs.

@@brunogonzales3752 Hell, they could even take a few notes from the Witness in portraying the Vex as a collective entity!

​@brunogonzales3752 They did its the conductor that's why we didn't kill her off at the end of the episode. Does it suck yes but it gives the vex a long term villian we can chat back and fourth with

@@Jaffamuncher21 a long term villain.... that only commands Vex yet another instance in which the "most powerful alien race" is only used, that is why we bitch bro, they gotta make em justice, give em a face, an ultimate leader, a PURPOSE, we're tired of this "simulation" bs, its just filler after filler

[@evocaeden2932]

@@Jaffamuncher21 And the entire focus was on interpersonal relationships rather than what Maya was actually trying to do. And with nothing actually being shown of her power apart from FAILING to control Saint (and us) twice. We were continually TOLD how much of a threat she was despite never really being shown her true power. Perfect example of bad story telling, wrapped around an already thin plot. The storytelling for individual characters was decent, but the plot for the whole episode was dreadful. It's like Bethesda wrote it

“Escaped” She lazily floated down a river of Vex Radiolaria with none of our heroes attempting to pursue.
