Are Guardians nothing more but Zombies without purpose?

When you first started off Destiny, the first mission started you off as you being revived by "ghost". This is where it gets interesting. If we were already dead, how can we be revived and still be as athletic as a cheetah? Wouldn't our bodies need time to re-adapt and regrow? Also, when we finally end up fighting our way in to the ship hanger, a Fallen Archon Priest greets us as ghost tries to start up the abandoned ship and ghost just "magically" transports us into the ship? Are Guardians nothing more but 3rd or 4th dimensional beings being projected on a more technical level(Projections)? The whole guardians being zombies without loose ends fits them right. Should Guardians be labeled as zombies? [spoiler]Destiny 2 better not dissapoint. Checkmate.[/spoiler]

  • Because a ghost revival is literally puts you back together piece by piece, well atom by atom. You could be a smear on the wall and your ghost could put you back together. It puts us back exactly how we are before we died. So, the revival at the very start of the game would be like waking up from a long and deep sleep - we'd be kind of weak and a bit stiff but other than that perfectly fine. And assuming we were very fit before we died we could be good enough to run fine almost instantly. [spoiler]Moreover if you're an exo I guess you don't really get tired [/spoiler]

    • First off, I would like to point out that was not a kell. It was an archon. Wayyyyyy different. Although riksis was feared,he was no kell. And yes I think your idea could be correct.

        Yea.. think about it from another aliens perspective. Some alien mechanical sphere came to some planet, infused their alien powers into the dead of another alien race, and then zombifying them giving them near immortality due to some mythical power held in this alien sphere. For some reason multiple alien races also are seeking this power and now they are all at war with each other. Light to guardians may be like SIVA to the splicers. It means EVERYTHING to them, it's an ability that gives them power, they infuse this alien power into themselves to give them more powers. We look at light the same way the splicers look at SUVA.

        • The ghosts are part of the traveler, the traveler has powers beyond our understanding and we're not brought back without purpose, we were chosen to save the traveler and humanity.
