the story finally clicked and here it is.

There is a story and the truth is, you are only a helper. A do boy, if you will. The reviewers only half got it. There is a reason you are not given a back story. You really don't matter. The central character of this story is your ghost. He is overly curious but needs some muscle to protect him while he goes off scanning this or interfacing with that. That is where you come in. He resurrects you to be that muscle Sure he claims to be your ghost, but your his. He got upset with you for calling him "little light" and making a deal with the awoken in reef without discussing with him first. He was also very excited when you take him to the moon. It also explains why the speaker couldn't really be bothered telling you about the battle that fatally damaged the traveler. Because in the grand scheme of things, you are just a minor actor. There to protect your ghost, as he gathers intelligence on his enemies and reclaims the old technology of a bygone era. *** EDIT *** ( Thanks to Chadogtha) We are called a guardian by our ghost, but not of the last city. We are guardians because that is our role: [b]to guard the spawn of the traveler. [/b] When you go to the moon, your ghost was like "oh well. He dead! WHERE IS HIS GHOST!"

  • Here's my take: The Traveller and that "God" thing in the end (The Heart I guess) are no different from each other really. They both came for self-preservation. The Traveller came and "blessed" us with the light that begun the Golden age of humanity, which is a sugar coated way of saying, The Traveller needed something to help defend it's being and gave us the means to do so for it. The Fallen are at war with the Hive and us, and the Vex are at war with the Cabal. The Vex and Us are basically the same, dead objects brought back to life by some super power "thing". The Hive were actively trying to destroy it in the one mission with the giant shard, but we returned that to the Traveller for it to heal. The Fallen have not tried to destroy it by any means, neither have the Cabal, but they have been messing with the Vex portals and trying to hold them down. The Hive have probably been manipulated by the Traveller before, which is why they seek to destroy it. The Traveller won't choose them, so they want to destroy the Traveller before it destroys them. How else would they have so much data already about the Traveller? The Fallen are trying to wipe out the Guardians to become the new Guardians, they have seen what the Traveller can give and they want it for themselves. Same story with the Cabal. They have seen what the Heart can do to create Vex and they want it for themselves. Another point to drive this home. We have abilities such as solar, arc and void. Fallen have Sepkis (machine "God") that have void abilities, Hive have shields that defend against different elements, cabal have arc and vex can teleport or blink. These simalarities show that they have all had some interaction with Traveller given abilities, most interestingly the defensive abilities of Hive who probably developed methods to defend against the Travellers powers. Vex also have shields to negate elements, probably given by the Heart. Are the Vex and Hive working together? They have never been seen fighting each other in the game.... That's all I got. Let me know what you think.
