I've been reading the new grimoire cards and I've been seeing a repeating word in the cards about Oryx. "Truth"
Possible TTK spoilers ahead
from Oryx, Rebuked-
Oryx is the wielder and the servant of a terrible truth. He has predicated Himself on it, He has pursued across thousands of cairn worlds His quest to embody it, and you have seen the force of that truth expended to create these Taken.
from Oryx, Defeated
Death is the last part of living
and life is learning to die
The song is the same as the singing
The last truth commands me
to eat all the light in the sky
From Echo of Oryx
The echoes of Oryx go forth to ask a question: are you the truth? And that means — well. You see, I’m sure.
What could this mean?

I think the truth can be taken as two things, ultimately falling under one concept. Oryx uses his wars as a tribute to his sister, and to prove the ultimate truth of the universe. This truth includes the extermination of all species weaker than the Hive, and the eventual end of all things. The second would be the truth that, if there is to be one definitive king or race at the end of the universe, it could possibly not be the hive. He asks, will you be the truth that proves him right, turning him into worm food? Both of these truths lead to the concept that the deep will spread no matter who uses it.
