Lost Prophecy Weapons’ Prophecies

Having now grinded myself to near death looking for radiolarian cultures to collect all the lost prophecy weapons, I decided to read the text on each weapon. This got me thinking: are these prophecies hints to future DLC, or events that have already happened in the Destiny universe. Let’s examine the weapons: Garden Progeny 1 [spoiler]Two siblings cleaved by time and space, reflections never found alone, The ending of the eldritch race - a path long seen but never known[/spoiler] Gibberish... but maybe the two siblings are the light and dark, the Traveller and the triangle ships, and this prophecy eludes to their beginnings? The Conqueror 2 [spoiler]To Tower comes a war in red; an orphan sounds the empire’s call. Mortal angels mourn the dead while lightless light wraps night in pall [/spoiler] The Red War... Ghaul is the orphan, we’re the mortal angels. Jack Queen King 3 [spoiler]An army meets, and stands, and falls. Three Nobles wage their hopeless war. In shifting madness, evil crawls. One stands above the battles roar[/spoiler] A queen and a king could be the Kell of Kings, and Mara Sov. A Jack is a term for male servant, so could relate to Uldren as he was the queens servant? Assuming there is a future DLC around the awoken and fallen, this could be a small clue about the story? EDIT: Malokith has presented an alternate theory that the three Nobles are Cayde, Ikora, and Zavala, and that the one standing above the battle is the Traveller. This prophecy would then be about the vanguards attempt to retake the city from the Red Legion. Machina Dei 4 [spoiler]A charnel but effulgent orb - beacon in a loathsome dark - feted, fetid corpses rise - a too-long-absent gibbous spark[/spoiler] Someone got the thesaurus out for this one, but I think this relates to our guardians awakening. Charnel means associated with death, and effulgent means shining brightly, both of which you could say about the Traveller. Presumably guardians are the fetid corpses. Travellers Judgement 5 [spoiler]A visitor ignites the sky, and the truth of light it dreams: above the dead and yet-to-die, a legions blade with fire screams[/spoiler] Ghaul getter burnt by the Traveller seems the obvious answer here? Sol Pariah 6 [spoiler]amid endless death one flew-unnatural all-consuming need - And in the space between the two, accursed comprehension freed.[/spoiler] This makes me thing of Oryx, with his all consuming need to feed his worm, and the accursed comprehension being the Taken ability. What does everyone else think? West of Sunfall 7 [spoiler]a spark of knowledge with each fall, the purpose of the endless youth. No longer shunned, darks nameless call now brings a tenebrous truth[/spoiler] No idea... any thoughts? EDIT: A few people have now said that this relates to either the Thanatonauts or to Osiris (who himself may have been a Thanatonaut) as they die to earn a greater understanding of things Infinite Paths 8 [spoiler]They sowed the first, now reap the last; forever narrows to a line Where Light will fade into the past-when all’s concerted, nothing shines[/spoiler] This sounds a lot like the future you seen in the CoO story where the Vex have won, and there is no more light. Null Calamity 9 [spoiler]a sacred eye that speaks in lies-upending future in its path. The way before us to the skies shall see itself in ancient wrath[/spoiler] 🤔 Future Safe 10 [spoiler]See whose robes as if a god, who stands with pride above the rest! Destroy this ancient nameless fraud! Destroy the one whose death was blessed[/spoiler] At a guess, I’d say this relates to a future big bad in a DLC similar to Oryx. Maybe Nokris if anything ever happens there? Or could be about Calus as he is robed like a god? What do you all think? Have I missed anything blindingly obvious? Are these clues to the future of Destinies story or just passages hacked together that mean nothing?
