I was looking at all the exotic armour lore when I came to the most recent exotic armour for the hunter: Graviton Forfeit. The lore is from the perspective of what I think is a minion of darkness (An intelligent one at that) who tells you to think about who you are, what you are doing and why. The lore really got me thinking: are we (the guardians) really the good guys? I want your thoughts down below for discussion.
Edit:
Wow guys! I really didn't think this would become such a hot forum topic but let's keep it going!

The first thing you have to understand is that as a guardian pretty much your only purpose is to kill. We dont talk; we dont ever make desicions on our own, so your character is less a character than he/she is a weapon for the actual characters in the game. So the lore in graviton forefit is this guy who presumably went through some bad stuff relating to the darkness, and (i think he is a guardian) so he is questioning the goals and purpose of guardians. Unlike this guy (i think his name is tevis or something) your character doesn't question anything which i want to believe is why the dtorytelling is so bad. Its because bungie wants you to look through the eyes of a guardian and not really an actual role in the lore.
