The Traveler Is Evil?!

I was going along the Destiny Database when this caught my eye. The rare artifact- the Trinary Star- "We were fools to trust this god- machine. This bringer of death and Darkness." This "god machine" instantly jumps out as the Traveler and it is a long held theory that it is evil and, in fact, has brought the darkness to us. But this is not obviously 100%. Off my head there are one or two sects that believe the Traveler is evil. Binary Lazarus and/ or the Thankonaughts. It also may well be the Eliksni, who once had the Traveler (great machine) and it abandoned them for some reason. Any one of these could be who is saying it. There is also the slim chance it is referring to some other god machine. Believe what you want. All will be reviled in time

  • I'm not sure yet, but there are a lot of hints in the game and grimoire that lean in that direction. I read a warlock grimoire where the warlock had a dream/vision of walking through the black garden. A ghost was sitting in the thorns, and the ghost told him he wasn't welcome, for he is the walking dead, brought back by a dead technology, and brings only death. The black garden is for life only... The Fallen are actually the Eliksni. The Traveler visited the Eliksni before us, and "The Great Whirlwind" occurred, causing the Eliksni to sin and become the Fallen. Was "The Great Whirlwind" the darkness? Or something unrelated? Anyway, the Traveler abandoned the Eliksni/Fallen after the Great Whirlwind. But when the darkness came for us, the Traveler stayed... Fun to think about!
