Dreg's Promise Lore

"I am a marvel with ten thousand arms." The Dreg's promise is a Y1 (HoW) Sidearm, and the only Exotic sidearm released as of now. It has a burst fire in threes like pulse rifles and had a unique reload up until Zhaulos Bane. It is visually identical to a Dreg's Shock Pistol , and keeps its arc damage and travel time. It is generally regarded as a bad exotic, not worthy of its exotic title and easily beaten by the other two Elder Cypher weapons, Queenbreaker's Bow and Lord of Wolves. Although I'm the right hands it can still do work. Lore wise this is one of the most interesting weapons in the game. [quote]There is a story, old as time, of he who could catch the stars. Unnamed and eternal, the star-catcher would lead the Fallen, rising from the lowest station to the highest exalted peaks. It is a fairy tale allowed to persist by the four-armed to keep the docked hopeful, placated—even the low may one day ascend. Myth, fairy tale or a prophecy of what will be, it's best to not take chances. After all, one can't reach across the black to claim dominion over ten thousand stars with ten thousand arms if they die here and now with only two.[/quote] I go further into depth on the topic of the Marvel of Ten Thousand Arms in this post: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/164006013/0/0 What intrigues me about this weapon is not the up front, but what is missing. The other two Elder Cypher weapons state where they come from; The Bow from a Queenbreaker Vandal and Lord of Wolves from a Captin, modified by a Crow. The Dreg's Promise, however, does not. I believe Bungie's reasoning for this was to make you think about where it came from. A Dreg. Not a noteable Dreg but just a no name piece of cannon fodder. It is reminiscent of the Marvel story because, the "Star Catcher" can come from any Dreg. Thanks for your time. Happy playing.
