Yup. I’m starting to think everything has been retconned. Years ago we thought that The Nine had the power to take with the Haul. But those are “fake” Taken, originally. I’m starting to think that since The Nine have definitively been nailed down as fourth dimensional beings….the Taken might very well be a creation of “one” of The Nine. Jupiter seems to really hate us. Certain members also speak about how The Weapon will be broken. And for years they have talked about becoming “Unbound” so they can live in another universe away from dependency on Humanity. Yet we just got the instructions to bind them in the first place. I think The Nine are The Big Bad for the next 10 years…. Much like how The Darkness was until the moment we meet the Witness. It is a new “Saga” and you can’t call it that unless the characters introduced in the opening have a relation to the closing….
