Exo Stranger is Still Canon

I was on Io the other day and scanned an object near one of Cayde's chests. My ghost said something to the effect of: "I wonder what ever happened to the exo who warned us about the Black Garden. I hope she's alright." Has anyone else encountered anything like this? Other scannables? Here's hoping the Stranger makes another appearance before too long.

  • while i was on nessus i scanned this conflux and the ghost said "it reacted strangely to your exo body, could the vex and the exos be related" i think the stranger might have something to do with that

    • Her story is "finished" my ass. Lol, I lose my faith in Bungie everyday. In the words of Dabest "Yeah, this game sucks."

      • Theoretically the Exo Stranger can be anyone, but I doubt the personality we know her as will exist unless the Heart of the Black Garden ritual starts again. She hated the Vex more than the Hive (logically impossible for anyone in this universe except for Toland) and her leading us to the Black Garden seemed to imply that the ritual was complete and the Vex reigned supreme in her future. Now that the future is gone, her as we know her shouldn't exist unless something else on that scale happens. So, Ghost, she technically is alright, but she's also not because she shouldn't exist as we know her.

        • I honestly think we will see more of her with the next DLC. I think she works with Osiris. That is just my opinion and maybe some one has some obscure bit of lore to tell me how wrong I am. On a separate note the MIDA'd D2 Lore card it talks about other realities with better tech so maybe she is from one of those?

            • She will comeback...eventually! Maybe our guardians will meet her BEFORE she gains the abilities to time travel and has knowledge of the Black Garden.

              • All of the Destiny 1 lore/story threads are still canon. They are just not relevant canon.

              • You need to scan it 3 times then it will turn blue then scan it again to finish the story

                Here's a quote from Luke Smith in a pc gamer interview “We have a bunch of characters who are interesting, but the Exo Stranger is one that always makes me chuckle a little bit. Because I feel that’s one character where we actually wrapped up the arc. She gave you a sweet gun and then dissolved, presumably off to do something else. So I feel like, of all our characters we’ve introduced and exited, we actually exited her effectively.”

                • Exo Strange ex machina. She'll show up again when it's convenient.

                  • She met Rasputin. She'll come back in a DLC probably.

                      Shes not coming back, I personally think that when she kept teleporting away she was in another timeline where we were battling the Red Legion. Most likely, this is false. On another note, she cant come back because she is dead to Bungie.

                    • Really? People care about Destinys lore? I am happy for you, I just can’t be bothered to read / listen any of these things, thanks to D1 disasters.

                      • Its not that she's not canon its that she won't make any future appearances for her storyline because it was "wrapped up nicely". I know another line the Ghost asks why anti-authority figures always call him little.

                        Shes gone. Shes not coming back, these are just subtle nods.

                        • I’ve seen that one and another that also references something like, “what is it with mysterious hooded figures popping into our lives?” Or some such. Found it week one, so memory is a little foggy on the exact location/dialogue.

                          Without any kind of Grimoire/Codex it’s all a bit moot now. They could update the main cutscenes next week and replace Gaul with Gail the thrall and so on until nothing even remotely makes sense. Not that it really does anyway.

                        • Of course she's still canon. There's a big difference between being non-canon and having your story thrown out and ignored.

                        • You must be new here. [b][i]Nothing[/i][/b] is truly canon in the Luke Smith era.

                        • There's about 150 scannables spread out amongst the world's.

                        • I thought the idea was by stopping the black garden and the VoG we changed the time line so that future didn't exist any more.

                        • Bungie never said she wasn't canon, just that she wouldn't be making an appearance in this game due to them (or Luke Smith, I guess) feeling like her story was "finished", which is far from true.

                        • I don’t think she is gone! There is another scannable that our ghost says is a port for an exo to connect to the Vex network! Who do you think is using that port!?!
