[ all of this is IMHO ] The Darkness is, at its very core, a singular thing. A singular emotion. A childish emotion. The most basic of childish fears, and also the most lasting, most brutal, and the one holding the most power. It is thus: [i] I do not wish to die.[/i] The Darkness is, at its most secret heart, the fear of non-existence. The Darkness seeks to survive for all time, no matter what final form that survival will take. In the Vex, it seeks to spread itself thoughout Time, being every-where, every-when. It seeks to transcend the end of the Universe by being present in all possible universes at all possible times. It seeks to write itself into the foundation of reality, so that one is the other. In the Hive, it seeks to reshape the universe via the power of faith, fueled by death. Consume the weakness, strengthen the strong, re-make reality in its own image though its agents. In this way it seeks to turn Entropy into just another shape, one which can be remade in the way it desires. The Cabal are another form of this childish fear: bullies. Dominate reality via strength; physical strength, the strength of the Fist. Dominate everything, stand at the highest peak of the highest mountain and carving its existence in all which stands below, remaking into the agents of its will. Harness weakness, making it serve strength. The Fallen are not truly agents of Darkness, not as we know them. The Eliksni were once agents of the Traveler's Light., but were consumed by the Whirlwind, much like the Sundering of the Golden Age. The Fallen seek to reclaim their lost glory, but are splintered into feuding Houses and have turned to piracy to survive. Scavengers peeking out at the sun of their former greatness; and nothing more.

  • Like the Fallen, the Cabal aren't aligned with the Darkness. I'm not sure if you were saying it one way or another, but I feel I should mention it just in case.
