My interpretation of the Darkness grimoire cards

So from what I can gather the darkness isn't a force or and army but the inevitable war between all things. There is no light and dark or good and evil just 2 nations, 2 queens, 2 armies and only one can rule, like the 'war' between atoms and primordial broth only one can go on and all that come after will be descendants of the winner but no matter who wins there will always be more war it is inevitable this is the true darkness. The darkness is law it's the blind law that Toland rambles about not a army or a force but law, this law is that there can only ever be one ruler one state of being not 2 or 3 or 4 ONE. And we as guardians are just the pawns of these great queens, the undead army whose only purpose is war the only choice we get is whose side we are on. This is the darkness, this is destiny.

  • The greater message hidden in Toland's last message (the one you're talking about) is lost on most; it is that we are no better than the Darkness. After all, would we not be driven to destroy the Hive, or the Vex, or the Cabal, if we were in their position? Think of the races of humans that have been destroyed by our own hands? The aboriginals of Australia and America would have been just as eager to exterminate us, had they stood in our shoes. The point is that the strongest do not share their power. The "Circle Ringed with Spears" Toland describes is our society, now. One that would not survive an attack by another society entirely devoted to destruction. In the end, the Traveller is no better than the Darkness itself; all create war-machines.
