The video is here just in case you want the full context. https://youtu.be/1hZDvFSYzaU This isn't speculation. This isn't theory. Everything I am about to tell you is backed up by in game lore and pictures. It's at the stage now where if I'm wrong Bungie is going against continuity. This is how confident I am. After six months of research I learned the true nature of the race inside the Pyramids, including their origin and motivations. Now I will share this information with you. Before I begin, I want to say that everything is based off of the four videos I have just released on my Youtube channel Venextron. The full information and context is there. I have my 13k word script on Storyfire under my channel Ben Carrick. The opportunity for more than this summary is there if you want it. Some of the pictures that I used in the video about this chapter can be found here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1IBHRvgUXWIOxSH3jXUnoSups4BZm40227Z_BKwLBANg/edit#slide=id.p Ok right to the point. The Pyramid Ships are not the Darkness. The Darkness is just energy controlled by the Winnower (full information revealing him and the Gardener on YT and SF). I know the race inside the Pyramids is not the Winnower, because the PP (pyramid people) only speak using plural pronouns (us and we) and the Winnower only speaks using singular pronouns. "She will bow to me." "We are your Salvation." The next piece of evidence is that the the Winnower and P Fleet entered our system during the Collapse at two different times. How do I know this? The lore. Io was the last place the Traveler touched before the Collapse happened, and we know that the Pyramids attacked it on Io. However from the Marasenna lore book we know that when the soon to be Awoken met the Winnower at the edge of the system (stars go black, gravity crazy etc) Rasputin says that the Traveler is on Earth and that heavy weapons are going off. The Pyramids entered the system first, and instead of waiting for the Winnower went straight for the Traveler on Io. They failed and the Traveler bee lined it to Earth. They fought again over the Dark Forest (picture in slides) and the Traveler was damaged but got away. By the time it was where it is now, the Winnower had nuked the colonies and arrived. Together the Winnower and Pyramids overpowered the Traveler. So the Pyramids are not the Darkness. Now I'll tell you what the race inside is. In the slideshow look at the first picture. The architecture shows us that we're dealing with a race that has been in contact with the Traveler, began from something small and over time became what they are now, and that they know what Humans look like from the two female heads in the picture. Ok look at picture 7 on the Slides. As you can see there is a language that is or is inspired by Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics. After much work (I tried to learn the language help me) I did find that some of the symbols matched. Long story short. After researching the picture, the artist, and the lore. It became clear to me that the race was HEAVILY inspired by the Ancient Egyptians. I asked myself this question: "If a Pyramid relic was found during the Golden Age deep within the Moon, and I know that the Pyramids and their technology was not made by the Winnower, but by the race that controls them, then doesn’t that mean that centuries if not thousands of years before the Collapse, this race so inspired by Ancient Egypt was once on the Moon?" There is no other possibility. The race inside the Pyramid Ships were once Human. I know they aren't from another dimension because that is why they want access to the Pyramidion I'm certain. Besides not even the Gardener and Winnower have left our dimension. Now I'll reveal their gods. After like I said six months of research, I found repetitive links to various Egyptian gods. Apophis, Sekhmet, Mot, Set, and Osiris. I was extremely confused at this point, until I then understood the truth that Nezarec represents. "He is that which is an end" and all that ooga booga is waffle, hype man talk. Trust me I do English in college. I can smell a waffle from a continent away. What I did manage to take out of the babble, were key pieces of information. 1. Nezarec is written about as a god. 2. He is dead but can come back. 3. He did something pretty bad. Because it's an ancient Golden Age text, and because there are no religious gods in that universe, he has to be Human. So we have a dude worshiped by other dudes as a god, is dead but can come back to life, and is Human.Tying it in with the fact that the PP are human and have been in contact with the Gardener and the Traveler, the truth is obvious. Nezarec and the other Eldritch gods were the first Human Lightbearers. Please remember I'm skipping so much btw. The vids have it all. The Gardener came to earth 3-5000 years before D1 and gave only the Ancient Egyptians a Golden Age. This was because she was experimenting. Every other kind of Golden Age failed, so she picked a handful of individuals and gave them the Light. These OP people were worshiped as gods, but because Nezarec did a stinky the Gardener ditched them after destroying him. The remaining Lightbearers and their followers united under the god inspired by Apophis and left the system in search of the Gardener. This is why when we had our Golden Age the Gardener didn't reveal herself and didn't communicate at all, she didn't want to be worshiped as fanatically as before. What is my final point in this summary? The Guardian classes (traits, abilities etc) are based off of 3 of the Eldritch Gods, The serpent Apophis for Hunters, the Lion Sekhmet for Titans and the Bird Osiris for Warlocks. If you want the full explanation for why I'm 100% certain of this you know where to look. The Pyramids want the Gardener to bring back Nezarec, why I don't know. But that's why they immediately began their journey here when the Traveler woke up. However they learned their lesson from last time and won't attack the Gardener until the Winnower arrives, so they are simply preparing for Lightfall. (3 years for the Pyramids to arrive, 3 years for the Winnower). Finally I want you to understand that this is why we have Ghosts. We are OP, but can't be guided by the Gardener because of her bet with the Winnower. That being said, the Ghosts are there to keep us in check. 1.We do not have the Light, nor do the Ghosts. They get it from the Traveler and give it to us. 2. If we misbehave badly enough they ditch us (Dredgen Yor). 3. If they Ghost dies we cannot come back to life. This is a failsafe to make sure we are never a constant threat like Nezarec. I know why the Pyramids want us on Europa, I know the truth behind Stasis as well. But this is long enough and I am comfortable with the summary I have given you. I hope you enjoyed it, and share my confidence.
