Can you tell me where you got info about there being more than one Speaker? And Taox was not hive, she was proto-hive. Oryx used to be female, and I haven't heard anyone else assign the Speaker a gender they just assume the Speaker is male because of their voice but they wear full body covering and no one has seen their face. As far as I could tell the Hive gods did not yet find Taox and fulfill their blood oath. If Taox is still on the loose where else would she hide? Would she not cling to the Traveler and convince us to do whatever we could to repair and revive it?
