In Destiny 2’s upcoming Forsaken expansion, players will finish the main campaign will be able to explore a new endgame region called The Dreaming City, the birthplace of the game’s Awoken race. The Dreaming City will also contain a brand new Raid experience which is supposedly called the Keep of Voices, and now Bungie has provided a cryptic clue as to the identity of the new Raid’s final boss encounter.
Fans have naturally been abuzz with their own theories as to who the final Raid boss might be, with some suggesting that the Keep of Voices will be where players finally get to take their revenge on the traitorous Awoken Prince Uldren, similar to how players finally felled Oryx in the King’s Fall Raid from Destiny’s The Taken King expansion. However, it seems safe to assume that Uldren will be dealt with as part of Forsaken’s story campaign, leaving a greater threat to be faced in the Keep of Voices. Another theory points to the possible presence of a Taken-corrupted Ahamkara, a race of elder dragons who are almost extinct during the time period of the Destiny games.
However, Bungie’s Raid Team lead Joe Blackburn recently sent out a tweet that might have just blown those two theories out of the water for good:
So @Holtzmann_YT is now asking if he can get the final Forsaken Raid Boss on his tattoo, but I don't want people pantsing him for spoilers, and also I think she's way too pretty to go where that tattoo is going.

Blackburn’s tweet is in relation to an embarrassing tattoo that Destiny podcaster Patrick “Holtzmann” Casey is now obligated to receive as part of a promise he made during a recent Bungie charity stream. Naturally, Blackburn’s specific mentioning of “she” has gotten the speculation wheels turning with increased fervor, with fans now wondering whether they’ll have to fight a Taken-corrupted version of the Awoken Queen (and Uldren’s sister) Mara Sov. Others think that the Keep of Voices will instead pit players against a more tangible Taken threat, Savathun, sister to Oryx who assumed control of the Taken after her brother was killed in the original Destiny.
No matter what, players can rest assured that Uldren won’t be the final threat they have to deal with as part of Forsaken’s new narrative. We’ll find out for sure just who (or what) is pulling Uldren’s strings when Destiny 2’s Forsaken expansion launches on September 4.
