I am a Titan and my name is MickGee. Come hear my lament and celebration in the Age of Triumph.
It is all I have ever done. All I have ever known. As far back as I can remember I have yearned to be a Titan. There has been no other call. No need for another path. The Hunter and the Warlock are my friends but they are not me. A Titan is what I am. For 3 years now I have warred against the darkness and protected the light. I have taught my sister titans from the Awoken and the Exo’s my ways. The ways of the front line, the first and last defense the face to face, toe to toe, stare down the darkness strategy of the Titan.
I have succeeded in many triumphs in a short time but I have to draw the line at extinguishing the light of another guardian. Over the course of time, I have become a conscientious objector and refuse to snuff out the light of my fellow defenders against the darkness. My only regret in this is I fear this may prevent me from joining my fellow guardians as they don the garments of remembrance which represent the triumphs we have all accomplished together. It saddens me to think we will not share this one experience together after achieving so many milestones as a brotherhood and sisterhood of the city.
Yet I will persevere over the challenges which remain and revel in the pride of accomplishing so much in such a time of war and impending darkness. I am so proud of my comrades who sacrifice for me reviving me time and time again. Without them I might be lost to the ages and adrift in a void from which I might never again take form. With each revive I feel a sense of connection with my fire teammates and have grown in my affections toward them. In fact, I would declare it is more than that and love is the true feeling I express. I have a deep true sustaining love for the guardians who challenge the darkness with me, who willingly, dare I say joyfully, dive headlong into each raid wanting to see the strongest champions of darkness felled once again by 6 intrepid earthlings who simply refuse to give up.
No matter the final outcome of this years-long campaign I am satisfied with who I have become. And while I will never know all the ways of the Hunter Warrior or the Powerful Magic of the Warlock I am at peace with my role as the first face the darkness must defeat when we explode into the lands we once called home now corrupted. I may also never know what it is like to extinguish the light of another guardian in the crucible or the trials. But that is part of what strengthens my light and brings me peace. I am a reviver of the fallen and a healer of those overcome by the dark we must all face together. I feel I am stronger for believing that all guardians are worth preserving and sustaining and restoring the light is my high calling.
I am Titan, I am Light, I will not be moved. This is my testimony to the Age of Triumph.

So many things in these books don't seem to register as done, when I've clearly done them already. Ah well R.I.P. Destiny, while I've enjoyed you you've caused me endless frustration, roll on Destiny 2 let's hope they rotate they're stock in the shops and events more than Destiny 1, so tired of the same old guns in iron banner, and the same old shaders on sale etc etc.
