So I was watching old Destiny cutscenes(as one does when bored), and noticed a very interesting piece of dialogue that may have more meaning now. In the cutscene from Jokers Wild, the one with the card game, the Drifter said “Gambit is a chance at… Salvation”. “Salvation” is a very important word in Destiny right now, its often used by the Witness, and often used by his disciples or by those working for him. Do you think that the Drifter’s choice of words here were hinting at something, or am I just too tired after work and looking too deep into things? Also that’d explain why he encouraged us to look for the relics even after knowing they were pieces of a disciple. If you think about it, he kind of started our whole involvement in this season in general. Food for thought…

I don't think so, I think Germaine and Shin created Gambit to weed out dark guardians and those that enjoyed it too much. What Drifter says is "Gambit is a chance at salvation." I believe he is trying to test his fellow Dredgen, I don't believe that Drifter is evil. Drifter only cares about his own agenda, which is his own survival and to prove that you don't need to give into the light or the darkness, if anything he will help find us a way to stop the Witness, mostly so he doesn't end up dead. A rat will always find an escape route.
