In the beginning...

If you missed the beginning from Alpha Lupi and the massive effort a group of gamers put into revealing information about the Traveler? Destiny? Geomantic symbols? I have copied the text, but also included the images. Feel free to read the full details (in the first paragraph) if you want to see how they did it and what else they found out. Fascinating reading... Once you have finished it all, you should then (re)watch the Rotunda Experience (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxoiHBYSntw). There may be better ones out there but this proposes an interesting theory. THFE also has a very long one (26:46) covering this topic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY7WY3k8x38) listed as 7 Heavens - my apologies for his playing of a Halo 4 match during his discussion... very rude in my opinion. Some of this is semi-apocalyptic literature and could be interpreted in several contexts. It could all be directed at the Traveler, or toward the people solving the puzzle the first time, or the eventual Guardians of Destiny. I'll leave you to your own thoughts on that, but I'm sure much speculation could be had. I will warn you ahead of time, if you follow all of these through you will have likely spent an hour or more and you may not have absorbed all the information. It is not for the faint of heart, but it is still impressive and worthy of at least our acknowledgement. Way to go Bungie!
