The Echoes are paracausal artifacts that was created from a collision of Light and Darkness.
Overview
The Echoes were created when the Coalition defeated The Witness within the Pale Heart and its Darkness collided with The Traveler's Light. Simultaneously, the Valence was formed around the Traveler and created an aurora of both paracausal energies. The Echoes contained a memory of the Witness's interaction with various species in its campaign to impose the Final Shape upon the universe prior to its defeat being made real. After the collision of Light and Darkness occurred, the Echoes spread out across the Sol System and then landed in different areas. The first Echo, which landed on Nessus, contained the memory of a Qugu warden named Te'Qal and was claimed by Maya Sundaresh, who was nicknamed The Conductor. It was later named the Echo of Command, and with the Echo in her possession, Nessus's radiolaria structures were altered and a new Vex collective called the Nessian Schism emerged, which the Vex were able to act individually. The second Echo, which landed in Reef territory, contained the memory of the Eliksni's Whirlwind dirge, and was claimed by Fikrul. He created the Revenant Scorn from living Eliksni using the Echo, which was later identified as the Echo of Riis, by altering the polarity. The Echo of Riis became dissatisfied with Fikrul's abuse of its power, so it eventually chose Eramis to be worthy of its power. The third Echo, which landed on the Dreadnaught and was identified as the Echo of Navigation, contained the memory of Oryx between his ascent to the Taken King and the birth of his children. The Echo of Navigation began to awaken a new Taken force called Dire Taken and a Dread commander named Keit'Ehr would pursue the Echo of Navigation in an attempt to claim it.
