Story Theory (Y cant i hold all these SPOILERS)

Ladies and gents strap yourself in, its all about the plot today... and im probably way off but: The black garden appears to be a terraformed Mars, (due to the way the grimoire refers to the flowers and an iron planet, if you didn’t know Mars is red from Iron Oxide) i assume its mars long before the beginning of humanities Golden Age, or long after, The vex discovered the garden and within it the darkness; but there are also mentions of a gardener (referred to as a her) with great power. The warlock Pujari had visions of the garden while sinking in the waters of the shores of time. I can’t accurately speculate on what the content of the garden is, but it is obvious destiny is all about being cryptic. Halo was equally as cryptic, but in the long run predictable.(the first hint being the vex, and then the strangers rifle, its apparently made of tech that isn’t invented yet, touched by strange power) Anyway back to mars, during humanities Golden Age, which sounded like a boss ass time, humanity stretched to the corners of our solar system, The chinese discovered mars, and the Ishtar collective research team on Mars discovered the vex, in the form of inactive vex husks buried in the sandy ruins. Ishtar begin experiments on a still functional vex and discover that inside the vex is producing an extremely detailed simulation of a research team on mars discovering that a vex is simulating them. (i know right now were getting into tricky stuff) At this point they call a Warmind (presumably RASPUTIN) to enter the vex simulation to stop the vex being able to predict their behaviour, because a warmind is perfectly unpredictable, at this point the grimoire stops in detail but its safe to assume the previously dormant vex react to the warminds presence in their simulation and thus this is the action that begins the collapse of the golden age. from here we have a possibility worth mentioning. we could just be fighting an ancient, time travelling, evil, which would complicate things by creating undesirable IMO multiple timelines, shit fans will never keep up with OR given the networky, universal, streamy, data-flowy style of the vex so far, Destiny could be playing out entirely INSIDE a vex simulation. this would explain the vex ability to cheat persey, bending the laws of physics to appear out of nowhere from unknown spaces in time; because they are literally the admin-bots of the universe as we know it. hence why theres no memory of the collapse, humanity was pulled into a simulation, and now our reality is out there somewhere. Back to the vault of glass, now lets assume the vault of glass represents a nexus in time, a vex simulation hub containing pieces of information on all possible futures based on the outcome of an given simulation. I say this because inside the vault there are Vex from both the multiple distant futures and the distant past, according to the grimoire. The powers the vex have inside the vault, such as an ability to make things “un-exist” apparently don’t work outside the VoG. This would support the Sims theory. The fact ghosts can resurrect long dead people also make me wonder if the Traveller isn’t a third party, meddling in a vex simulation by storming around trolling our robot enemy by bringing dead players back into the game. I can’t explain the garden’s place in all of this, the nine’s shadowy illuminati-like presence in the world should also stir thought, as they are rumoured to be god-like creatures from the seas of the moons of Titon and Triton. They could be heavily string-pulling. all we need to know is exactly how the collapse went down, and we will have an answer. Nothing is as it seems in Destiny, RASPUTIN could be the only human made entity in the whole universe that still realises its in a sim, hence why ive got $5 on us needing to find rasputin on the moons of saturn in a coming expansion so he can tell us this. I just thought it would be interesting to share what I’ve managed to come up with by paying attention to all the subtle hints in the grimoire! It will be cool to see where Bungie take this.
