( Wow. Just, wow. I'm not even going to say anything. One thing, though. Guardians aren't necessarily ressurected from the dead. If you'd actually bother to look in the Grimoire, you'd know that Shin Malphur was chosen to be a Guardian, rather then being revived as one. )

Arxus was still standing the Hall of Champions, observing all the ongoings. He watched as Scythe stormed out from the area. Likely story was, it pissed him off for the Tower to know that he was the flipping Kell of a Fallen House. That would not go over well, but you couldn't exactly hide things from the Vanguard and get away with it. They'd find out eventually, some way or another. Arxus leaned himself against the furthest wall of the room, watching to see what would happen. Hopefully and soon, debriefing would come.

Avgust had briefly left the Hall of Champions, but soon came back. Another Titan walked in, one he wasn't familar with. Certainly not a member of Fireteam Argus. Arxus chuckled to himself at the thought. They had already assembled a ragtag team of misfits in just a few months. Whatever the next adventure would be, it'd be crazy. Back to his previous thought, Arxus figured there were plenty of Guardians he wouldn't know about. Aside from the important ones, like Shaxx or Cayde, and Crucible champions or war heroes. Anything the stories spoke about. The stories were few, but Arxus managed to spectate a Crucible match or two. Illegal Crucible gambling was a big deal down in the Last City, unfortunately. Not that he even got caught up in that sort of business.

"Who's that, even? Arxus mumbled to himself, with his good eye gazing over the present Titan speaking with Avgust.

The Titan's Ghost popped out from nowhere, blinking and looking at the new Titan standing just across the room. "That's Varrus."

"He literally just said th-" Arxus was cut off as his Ghost continued to speak.

"He's a champion in the Crucible. Top of the leaderboards for 3 straight months." What the Ghost referred to was the Crucible leaderboards, being a sort of ranking system that Shaxx implemented to encourage Guardians to try their hardest. It seemed to work most of the time, but was incredibly prone to malfunctioning.

"A champion, aye? I figured those types wouldn't even bother going out into the field." Arxus muttered to himself. He had some respect for those in the Crucible, but the whole activity was a joke. Why on Earth would Guardians kill each other when there were bigger threats to face in the universe? Besides the obvious "it's for training" bit.
