I have no idea. My recommendation if you have the desire and time to do so, is to get information by finding / reading all those collectible cards and spend some time on Destiny wiki and Google... I like the game but I feel totally lost in the lore as there is little to no information in game... Like the game, but I don't speak Destiny, I'm sure the experts will answer you. Wish there was a sticky with the basics in here somewhere. Maybe some kind soul will put it together for us who can barely find time to play the game itself. :)
