I assume most people have seen this Grimoire card. However, the majority of the posts referring to this card mention the part about the three queens.
The part I've shared with you caught my attention, and here's why.
[i]"Everything is becoming more ruthless and in the end only the most ruthless will remain ("[b]LOOK UP AT THE SKY[/b]).[/i]
Ask yourself, if you're at home, on Earth, what do you see when you look up at the sky?
[i]The Traveler.[/i]
In its name we've slaughtered hundreds, no, thousands of sentient beings. We are waging war simply to "protect the traveler."
Sounds pretty dark to me.
But wait, there's more!
Remember how the third queen raised an army and conquered everything?
Well, I think it's safe to say that the Traveler is referred to as Isis.
Who was Isis?
Apart from being the goddess of wellbeig, and a gardener, her name [i]literally[/i] means "throne". Who sits on a throne? A queen.
All in all, I'm pretty sure the Traveler is the third queen. We are the final evil, the eternal sovereign's armada.
[b]EDIT:[/b] Wow guys, thanks so much for all the input! I love reading your theories and ideas, keep them coming!

Things that are interesting. 1. The Fallen commonly refer to us as the darkness. Now this could be taken that the darkness has corrupted this species into thinking they're still serving the light, or it could mean that the darkness has done this to us... 2.The 3 queens "Imagine three great nations under three great queens. The first queen writes a great book of law and her rule is just. The second queen builds a high tower and her people climb it to see the stars. The third queen raises an army and conquers everything... Of course, it might be that there was another country, with other queens, and in this country they sat down together and made one law and one tower and one army to guard their borders. This is the dream of small minds: a gentle place ringed in spears. But I do not think those spears will hold against the queen of the country of armies. And that is all that will matter in the end." Could the Queens be referring to the races, and the Queen of armies being the Traveler? 3. It has been speculated that the vex originate in the future under the supervision of Rasputin. It's the time of the exo stranger. Why would the Vex need to be made, and why made by a human AI? Why are the Vex killing humans if this is the case? The question to really ask is if they're killing humans or if they're killing guardians.
