[spoiler]This post is a remake of https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/248651422?sort=0&page=0, as in hindsight I felt it was not of the same quality as the others within the Lore Book (link below). As always, thank you for your time. [/spoiler] [i]The Cache opens. Inside is a legendary helmet, a faded shader, and a few dusklight shards of little value. As you turn to leave, your Ghost notices something within that you did not. “It appears to be some sort of data drive, similar to those SIVA Clusters we found in the cosmodrome. It seems… harmless, but I’m not sure it’s worth our time.” You pause, but your curiosity gets the better of you. Could be the start of a new Exotic Quest, after all.[/i] [b]*********************************************************************[/b] [b][The following is a message from the infamous Titan Biocatarus-2.][/b] My earliest memory is of the Deep Stone Crypt, and how above all else I had to win. I faced an army of teeth and claws and bone and metal. An eternity’s conflict raged, until I atlast reached the steps of the unholy temple. Then the Dream ended, it [i]always[/i] ended. Each and every night that I held the dream, it would [i]never[/i] reveal any coveted secrets or glimpses into my purpose as a machine built for war alone. I was not enough, [i]never[/i] enough, to save [i]anything[/i]. This was true in my dreams, and true in my life as a Guardian. From very early on it became apparent that I was a rarity. I was a Titan, the supposed wall and fist of the Last City, yet I possesed traits common only for a Warlock. Titans are often strong willed but also simple minded. While I certainly fit that description, I found myself constantly questioning the nature of the world, and how there had to be a better future ahead of us. Beyond the reach of the Collapse, beyond the reach of war. I admit I find some heretical fascination with the Darkness and her followers, as I do with regards to Traveller and her people, among which I willfully reside. Guardians were made to slay monsters and gods that are beyond traditional understanding, all for the sake of unclear purposes and hidden motives. If our future is that of war, then at the very least we deserve to know [i]why[/i]. So in these short moments, when the battles quiet down, I will always sit here and think. I shall have my Ghost keep a log of this journey, and who knows, maybe one day someone will find a use for them. [b][End of Message.][/b] Congratulations... you’ve managed to find the first fragment of the past. I believe we’d both agree that it would be unfortunate if… if a lifetime goes unremembered. I can only hope that my... so called ‘journey’ will at least grant you some form of purpose, even if it didn’t for me. [b][Sounds of coughs and pained breathing.][/b] ... I have to end this fragment here. There will be others, and it’s important that you gather them. Until then... My name is Biocatarus-2, and I thank you for your time. If you do persist on your reclamation, you will hear from me again. [The next Cluster is hidden in the surrounding area. Use your eyes, I know you will find it.] Next Fragment: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/248720192?sort=0&page=0 Lore Book: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/248920648?sort=0&page=0
