Even if the *bungie employee* was lying the intro cutscene is too generic and i do believe there is truth to the story he/she told. Why would an awoken be in the piles of dead humans fleeing to the city during the fall when they were born of the darkness in space?
Bungie arn't that sloppy when it comes to story telling which is why it seems like a rush job to me, there's definitely more to this story.

Edited by Father Giliam: 10/18/2014 6:01:53 PMBecause its quite possible the Awoken was one of the Earthborn mentioned in the grimoire? The Awoken appeared during the Collapse. Then there was the Dark Age. Destiny takes place during the City Age. In the time between the collapse and the time in game, its easily possible an Earthborn Awoken died (likely killed by fallen when scavenging or some other activity) and was revived by the ghost.

Because they returned to Earth? Simply because they were born in space doesn't mean they all stayed there. The storytelling isn't sloppy at all.

Watch the cutscenes, read the grimoire then read your comment,
-
I did. We know plenty of Awoken returned to Earth.

Edited by STARKlLLAR: 10/18/2014 6:24:42 PMafter the collapse, ghost already states you've been dead for a long, LONG time. As proven by YOUR very own comment to another forum user. "[i]Uhm, what? Our character didn't die before the Traveler was discovered. Given the information in the game, our Guardian died during or soon after the Collapse[/i]." It would seem hard for an awoken to leave earth, return to earth after the collapse and then die outside the wall as a civilian. When others who returned are in the tower and the city. Wouldn't you agree? And ghost wouldn't quote that you'll see a lot of things you won't understand to someone who as been dead for long....
-
Yes, and? We know the Awoken were born during the Collapse, which occurred around 700 years ago. Let's assume our Guardian was the progeny of the first Awoken who then returned to Earth soon after the Collapse. He or she still would've been dead for centuries, which is entirely consistent with the Ghost's statement.
-
So why would an awoken return to earth when it's being attacked?...
-
The entire system was being attacked. It wasn't just Earth. Regardless, Earth was likely safer than living in the Asteroid Belt on ships. I imagine the early years of the Awoken were plagued by food and supply shortages, along with the constant threat of raids by Fallen etc.
