This post will (hopefully) be a large collection of all the dialogue heard at the tower. If enough of you guys contribute dialogue you've heard, ideas about the dialogue you read on here or hear in game, or just bump this post, then we can piece together a huge collection of lore and interesting facts about Destiny. I sat in the tower for about 30 minutes just listening to what various vendors and characters had to say. I wasn't bored at all surprisingly. Most of the dialogue I have collected (for now) is from the FWC vendor. Look below and see what you can make of it! Please help contribute ideas and more interesting facts!
Also: if you listen very closely in the tower, the speaker will say different things softly in the background, even if you are nowhere near him!!!!
Destiny NPC dialogue
Lakshmi-2
"Dead orbit just misdiagnosed a problem. It's not a matter of distance, but of time."
"What if there was a single timeline untouched by war? Would you have any idea how to live in it?"
"The ancients had a time keeping device called an hourglass. You could turn it, and turn it, but there would be nothing more in it then dust."
"We keep our mysteries close. Take them from us if you can."
"Talk to dead orbit if you want to escape. I offer something harder, better."
"Hahaha, who told you that? What a silly idea."
"You think the guardians can carry the fight alone? You think you have the right to be weak?"
"Dead orbit can run to the ends of the universe, but the war will be there waiting for them."
"War is our fate. Can you learn to love it?"
"What if on some dreadful night, the darkness came creeping up to you, and whispered, 'This war is all there is for you'. Could you laugh, and say, 'Bring it on'?"
"A trillion timelines, and all at war. Like a mass of red flowers growing in a black garden."
"I'm an Exo. I could never doubt that I was made for war."
"Another war story? I could tell you about tranquility and hive."
"I'm not going anywhere."
"Thinking about what I've said guardian?"
"The inner circle has its secrets... Maybe in time..."
"Another war story? I was there when the house of Devils burned London."
"What if you could learn to love your fate?"
"What do I think of the new monarchy? Hahahahahaha... I don't, really."
Speaker:
(the first 2 quotes were whispered in the background when I was standing near the FWC vendor.)
"The darkness cannot be defeated. "
"It's nearing the end."
"Perhaps beyond the jovians..."
"I can't help you if I don't know what you need guardian."
"We cannot give up hope!"
"Silence.. Still.... *sighs*"
"If they find it, can they contain it?"
"No... No, that isn't right."
"This is no time for questions. We must be bold."
"I thought...... No... No."
"Something powerful is down there. I can feel it."
"If only the Nine would help..."
"Keep looking. Keep fighting."
"Nothing... We will try again."
Isn't it crazy how much these characters have to say if we just listen? Please comment your thoughts below!!
Bump if you thought this was interesting!

One of my favorites is from the warlock vanguard- she says to hurry defenses to the walls...she "senses" a force or army approaching. Does this mean the city is still getting attacked on a regular basis?...most likely fallen.

Edited by BlackArrow266: 2/14/2015 12:43:56 PMI've heard the Speaker kind of whisper to himself "Good... then they are vulnerable". He said it when I went up the stairs towards him, kind of before he turned around and acknowledged me presence. Felt like he said it about us, the guardians... It's very interesting that he also says "If only the Nine would help...". I thought we got help from the Nine through Xûr? Dosen't the Speaker know of this? Is the Exotic exchange happening all in secret from him? Does that mean that the Nine does not approve of the Speaker? Could he be having his own agenda?

Great thread

If you stand near the multiple glowing models of the solar system, a voice from somewhere will make smartass comments like "They're not for sale."

My will is not my own. Xur If zavala would help us, I'd put him on a throne. New monarchy vender Oryx dead king. Three words, nine word bursts. Osiris? Master rahool War is the only consent, guardian. Lakshmi 2

"Cayde went into the crucible like it was a joke, sly bastard" - lord shaxx

There was something the postmaster once said to be about a package bring delivered to the "wrong tower".

"show me the look on crota's face when he died"- Eris Morn

I think the screams are really creepy. Why would there be a gut wrenching scream like this?

Postmater says. "Package for Xur..... What's a xur?" My favorite so far. It says it really sarcasticly too which is great.
