Do you read a grimoire car about this?? FRAGMENTO DE ESPECTRO: CAÍDOS Reminiscencias de Cayde-6 Vale, vale, contaré la historia de la caída. No sucedió de esa manera. No fue algo activo... ningún apretón de manos ni mirada gélida de respeto mutuo a regañadientes. No sé ni que mano habría que estrechar. ¿Se dan la mano? Debe ser complicado. Pero bueno, contaré cómo fue. Yo estaba en la Luna. Acababa de descodificar una estructura de la colmena en Mare Imbrium, en búsqueda de un altar, cuando entraron como un enjambre. Tropas y tropas y más tropas de lacayos, brotando entre las columnas, que en realidad eran caballeros, y rodeados de sombras que exhalaban brujería a gritos. Claro que salí corriendo. Tenía una vía de salida y, aunque estuviese lleno de lacayos, tenía una alternativa también. Me dirigí hacia arriba. Me refugié a la sombra de la Phaeton estrellada. Vacié la ametralladora, me agaché para recargar y entonces la vi, al otro lado del casco, matando lacayos: una caída con los colores del Exilio, abanderada con los distintivos de un barón, si bien las banderas estaban arañadas y manchadas de cenizas de la colmena. Estaba sola. Creo que había perdido a su tripulación. Yo no tenía tiempo para dispararla a ella y ella no tenía tiempo para dispararme a mí, así que continuamos matando a la colmena. Los caballeros me forzaron a salir y me vi obligado a retroceder hasta una estructura de piedra elevada, al resguardo de una antigua antena de interferometría. Era una buena posición, así que ella vino hasta allí también. Durante un rato no dejamos de matar cosas, lo cual no es muy interesante así que me lo salto. Y entonces aparecieron las magas. Escalé la antena para obtener un buen ángulo de tiro y ella bajó hasta la base para cargarse a un caballero con sus espadas. Vi eso y la verdad es que no sé expresar muy bien cómo me sentí. Era otro ser vivo, con una racionalidad que yo podía entender, y sin embargo no me había aullado ni había intentado comerse a mi Espectro. Me puse a vitorear cuando el caballero cayó. Bajé, seco de munición completamente, y ella estaba tirada contra una mampara, observándome con sus minúsculos ojos negros. El éter brotaba de ella como humo. El caballero no había sido fácil de matar. Abajo había una maga agitándose como las llamas, protegida por una línea de lacayos. Miré a la caída, preguntándome cuántas vidas humanas inocentes habían sido arrebatadas con esas espadas rotas. Entonces ella hizo algo de lo más extraño. Sacó su pistola de choque de la bandolera y la tiró en mi dirección, como ofreciéndomela. Cuando fui a recogerla ella intentó acuchillarme, pero fue demasiado lenta. Así que le rompí los brazos y le abrí la garganta. No pareció sorprenderla. A día de hoy todavía me pregunto si me odiaba, si quería que la matase, o si solo quiso ahorrarme la elección. Maté a más de un lacayo con esa pistola. Sorry because in Spanish, use google traductor :)

  • That was beautiful, God i wish I'd written that! Such a shame it's hidden away on a Grimoire card many people won't see. There is some brilliant writng on those cards. I had not seen this before but i was inspired by Ghost Fragment: Fallen 2. Gracias for this card, HiddenDeath. I'll pop an Enlgish translation below for anyone else. Thanks again, dude :) Ghost Fragment: Fallen Cayde-6 Reminisces Okay, okay, I'll tell the story about that one Fallen. It didn't happen like that. We didn't, you know, do anything actively - no handshake, no icy stare of grudging mutual respect. I don't even know which hand you would shake. Do they shake hands? It must be complicated. Anyway, it was like this. I was on the Moon. I cracked a Hive structure near Mare Imbrium, looking for a Shrine, and they just - swarmed. Ranks and ranks and ranks of Thrall, pouring out between the columns, but the columns were Knights, and all the shadows behind them rose up hissing sorcery. Of course I ran. I had a line of egress and while yes it was full of Thrall I had a backup too. I went upslope. Took cover in the shadow of a crashed Phaeton. Emptied my machine gun, ducked down to reload, and saw her at the other end of the hull, killing Thrall: a Fallen in Exile colors, bannered in the marks of a Baron, though the flags were claw-torn and stained with Hive ash. She was alone. I think she must have lost her crew. I didn't really have time to shoot her and she didn't really have time to shoot me so we just went back to killing Hive. Knights pushed me out into the open and back up the range to a high stone saddle in the shadow of an old interferometry array. It was good ground so she came up there too. For a while we just killed things which is hard to make interesting in a story so I'll pass it over. At the end the Wizards came. I climbed the array to get an angle on them and she fell back to the base of the antennae where she broke her swords off in a Knight. I saw that happen and I don't know if I can tell you how I felt. She was another living thing with a mind I could understand and she hadn't howled at me or tried to eat my Ghost. I cheered when the Knight went down. When I came down, empty on all guns, she was slumped against a bulkhead staring at me with all her tiny black eyes. Ether leaking out of her like smoke. The Knight hadn't died easily. Downslope the last Wizard moved like fire behind another line of Thrall. I looked at her and wondered how many innocent human lives she'd ended on those broken blades. She did the strangest thing then. Took the last shock pistol from her bandolier and threw it between us, as if to offer it. When I went to pick it up she tried to knife me, but she was slow, and when I broke her arms and opened her throat she didn't seem surprised. To this day I wonder if she hated me, or wanted to make me kill her, or just felt she should spare me the choice.

  • Those two reasons, plus the Hunter Vanguard symbol shirt I'm having shipped. It will be my personal exotic gear for the years of Destiny playing ahead of me!
