The traveler didnt BRING the darkness here. Traveler was running from it, we found it in mars, it mived to earth to give us a golden age, darkness came and the traveler was about to run. Rasputin crippled it with midnight exigent making sure it stayed here to help us protect ourselves.

    Well you are wrong and right. Traveler didn't bring the Darkness: true. Rest is wrong. We had no power to move the Traveler, it moved by itself from planet to planet. [spoiler]edit: misread this one, but also Traveler moving to Earth didn't give us the Golden Age, Traveler being in our system did that at the moment we "found" it[/spoiler] Rasputin is not confirmed to have attacked the Traveler (I do believe that this happened, but there isn't enough proof imo) and also SABER GREEN is the rumored weapon that was used to halt the Traveler, MIDNIGHT EXIGENT is the event of Guardians holding back enemy forces.

  • Midnight exigent was the protocol to save everything from the darkness. I didnt say it was the weapon. Rasuputin fragment 3 builds the midnight exigent protocol basically as a last resort when things start failing across the system. Rasputin fragment 5. Under a carrahae white or black (really deep shit happening) And if morality is set at midnight (meaning the midnight exigent protocol is active, allowing rasputin to USE ABHORRENT protocols to get the job done) LOKI CROWN was the protocol to halt [O] (meaning the traveler) [quote]Under CARRHAE (WHITE or BLACK) If SECURITY STATE is EGYPTIAN If event rank is TEILHARD: TRAUMATIC CONTEXT or SKYSHOCK: OUTSIDE CONTEXT If VOLUSPA is ACTIVE and in FAILURE [[synapse to FENRIR::SURTR]] If YUGA is ACTIVE and in SUNDOWN If AI-COM has granted PERMISSIVE POTENTIATION to outboard resilient instances If a CIVILIZATION KILL EVENT is underway [[all flexions]] If tactical morality is built at MIDNIGHT Stand by for DECISION POINT: If available ISR and WARWATCH indicates imminent [O] departure >then [O] departure compromises human/neohuman survival and epoch strategy Stand by for ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE: Activate LOKI CROWN Perform deniable authorization: full caedometric and noetic release Prevent [O] departure by any means available Stand by for effect assessment criteria: Coerce pseudoaltruistic [O] defensive action. Defer civilization kill. [/quote] Prevent the traveler from leaving using any means possible. Force the traveler into a defensive nature. Stop the populace from dying. All that was only available because they wrote in the midnight exigent protocol.

  • Even if it was true that we found the traveler, it still used us to fight its enemy by advancing us farther than its other touched species Whether Rasputin decided to stop the traveler from running or it confused the traveler's intentions the traveler is selfish at the core. This is proof by her dying notice to give us ghosts that resurrect us from the dead to continue her fight. She brought the darkness upon us whether intentional or not and to some that would Make her evil

  • The traveler is a giant floating white sphere, and, at the risk of sounding like a tumblr justice warrior, YOU GIVE IT A GENDER?! It's like calling a star a he, or earth a she. Traveler doesn't have a vag(to our knowledge) or a phallus. Therefor the Traveler is an 'it'.

  • The lorists believe alpha lupi (who is a she ) was the traveler. Just as oryx was a she that them turned a king as a he I'm not being a gender warrior I'm basing it off what I've been able to gather

  • The lorists are speculating, in the grimoire, the traveler is referred to as an it.

Go watch the intro to the vanilla game. Or the alpha trailer... And it didnt try to use is to fight its enemy. There was no enemy at first. We found it, had a golden age of technological advances, and then the darkness crept up, cabal attacked, fallen swooped in and vex came out of the underground. And the traveler isnt dead. Its on backup power till the guardians either kill the darkness or find a way to bring the light back to it. If people want to claim its evil, thats their choice. But half of them are only voicing that opinin because the see half assed youtube videos using outdated material and calling it factual. YES THE TRAVELER WAS SUPPOSED TO BE EVIL. YES THE BLACK GARDEN WAS ORIGINALLY ROUND AND WAS SUPPOSED TO BE INSIDE THE TRAVELER. Was. WAS.[b][i][u]WAS[/u][/i][/b]. not IS.

  • I was addressing the point of the posters rebuttal Stop half ass reading and them replying We came in contact with the traveler on mars She blessed us but you cannot deny the fact that she knew that the darkness would chase her AND anything she touched.

  • Half assed reading? I QUOTED you! And then responded to each part. Stop being so uppity, youre trying too hard to prove your point. Which is ludicrous anyway since througout the entire story the traveler has been inanimate. Meaning you cant judge its actions. "It knew bad things will follow it" It wouldve happened eventually! Oh hey lets just forget about the entirety of the golden age and all the good this thing did because some CRAZY OUTSIDE ENTITY chose to look thru the solar system for it. Why are you so dead set on making it out to be evil?

  • It gave humanity a golden age. I didnt say anything past that about it being good. It was supposed to be evil. They reworked it and literally changed EVERYTHING and then came flat out and said it was good when people starting making youtube videos like the one op referenced. Idk if its good or bad. Its not alive/awake yet. I have no way to tell. Nobody does.

  • First off you stated I must be new by saying we discovered the traveler when.I was replying to OPs post of us finding it But let's negate that for arguements sake. An entity comes and blesses us after we contact it We gain a far superior golden age from the others it touches The speaker , who is supposed to be able to be the speaking piece for the traveler tells humanity nothing of the monster thats following our great blessed entity The darkness comes and ravishes is, and we gain then light as to fight it Rasputin looks up and sees the traveler, by his interpretation, leaving us to fiend for ourselves fighting her(,Alpha lupis) battle In its dying breath it gives us the ghosts so that we may forever fight the darkness as she recovers Where in that sounds good to you? Besides. Good AND evil are subjective. What's good to Younis evil to me. Even if selfishness is the main culprit

  • You do know that even if it didn't advance us further than other species we would have been obliterated like those other species ?

  • Actually Thats subjective. The darkness swallows anything in its pursuit of the traveler. The warminds cannot fully destroy the existence of the dark. But if we never found the traveler, wed have never lost all of the warminds. So when crota came to reclaim his right to appease his father who's to say the warminds wouldn't have protected us. Etc

  • But the warminds were a product of the golden age, of the travelers advancement. No traveler=no warminds

  • I forgot to put that So I guess we needed the traveler to fight crota and the vex because they would visit our realm.at some point

  • I agree it would only make sense if the Traveler was running, anything after it would follow.

  • Look it up in the grimoire. All the rasputin cards talk about abhorrent portocols to preserve human life in the face of extinction. (Carrahae white, etc) Midnight exigent is the protocol to ensure rasputin lives, as well as every human under his protection. He did it by crippling the traveler and forcing it to stay and fight. Rasputin put out the ikelos protocol items as a means to arm the populace to fight what was coming. And the traveler and darkness cards tell you about the darkness and how it constantly chases the traveler.
