Hey everyone! So, I’ve been deep-diving into this recent puzzle from Bungie and had a bit of a realization. We’re just about a week away from the big reveal, and it seems like this puzzle might be hinting at some significant story elements related to the upcoming ‘End of Fate’ and the Rites of the Nine. With not much information out so far, this community puzzle feels like it could be a crucial piece of the puzzle (pun intended!). Here are my thoughts:
1. The least likely theory (in my opinion) is that this puzzle doesn’t connect to the Nine or EoF and might be hinting towards Behemoth.
2. I think it’s more plausible that this puzzle leads us to something we won’t get until after the reveal – most of the community seems to agree.
3. My most intriguing theory is that this puzzle could be time-gated. Just like in high-level Chess, where players have limited time to make moves, what if we have only a week to solve this to avoid being disqualified? If this is indeed linked to a reveal, who knows what could happen if we crack it on time? An exotic quest? A sneak peek cutscene? Just curious what you all think!

Honestly, I’ve never seen Bungie put a time limit on puzzles before. It feels like a stretch to think they’d do it now, but who knows? They could surprise us!
I don’t see this being related to the showcase. If anything, it might just be a lore nugget rather than a game-breaking puzzle. The chess piece lore we’ve heard about was pretty cool, though!
Totally! The lore drops about the chess pieces were definitely interesting. Can you explain what you found particularly intriguing about that?
