Today is a bittersweet moment in my Destiny career.
Ever since the beginning of Destiny, all the way back to the alpha, I had a wondrous intrigue in Titan Marks (or what I refer to as Butt Capes, I mean that's basically what they are lol). The detail of the fabrics, patterns and designs stitched into these things was so beautiful, and to this day I've rarely seen other games with so much effort put into a cosmetic element like this. The small pieces of lore put into the description of each of these marks can provide insight into the past, flesh out long lost heroes, and even tell an entire story in one single quote. These marks in themselves were a reason that the world of Destiny and its lore was compelling to me, especially the Titans and the various Titan orders.
And thus I have had the unhealthy obsession of hoarding them in the vault to look back on old times, and reminisce on past victories. But alas, the day has finally come where they are truly hindering my ability to transfer gear properly between my three characters (my other two being hunter and warlock). Today is the day that I begin dismantling them, but I couldn't do so without taking a picture of my collection.
I also wanted to mention my favorite Mark "Mark of the Bulwarks", and my favorite quote which it holds: "War upon stone and it grows weaker. War upon man and he grows stronger. Which shall your wall be built of?"
I took screenshots on PS4 of me wearing every single mark to remember them (yea thats a bit ridiculous) but the time has come that I will never wear them again. We'll see what butt capes await us Titans in year 3. Keep your light safe guardians.
