Just a Reminder That We Are The Chosen One

The reason our guardian is so much greater than all the others is because we are the chosen one. How do I know this? This fact is courtesy of our friend Saint 14. [b]Who is Saint-14?[/b] Saint-14 was a great titan during the early ages of the city. He did many significant acts, one of which included killing a Kell with one well placed head butt. He was close Osiris. His deep seeded friendship with Osiris lead him to follow Osiris deep into the Infinite Forest where he met his demise. However, sometime before his demise he will meet us. There we will give him the Perfect Paradox shotgun. [b]Why is He Important?[/b] The Helm of Saint-14 gives us all the information we need. There we spectate a discuss between Shaxx and Cayde-6 discussing Saint-14’s beliefs. I encourage you to go read it. There we see mention of a so-called “Chosen One” who would slay Crota and do many great acts. Therefore it’s canon that our guardian did all those things and it explains why we can do it, because we are the chosen one, the special one foretold. [spoiler]I would take everything I said here with a grain of salt. I’m no lore master myself and I know very little. Tell me what your thoughts are, I thought it was really interesting to come up on.

  • Well, this chosen one missed 12 sniper shots then got killed by his own grenade. Humanity is saved.

    • Our Guardian clearlry has a "special relationship" to The Traveler, only the nature of that relationship is unclear. 1. Prior to our becoming Risen, Humanity's hold on survival was tenuous...and Minions of the Darkness were closing in on The City and the dormant Traveler. 2. But with our Arising, we lead the Vanguard to a string of uninterrupted victories until the start of the Red War. We break the Tithing that Crota had set up for Oryx (end the "Dark Ritual" siphoning power from a shard of the Traveler, then destroy the Shrine of Oryx). We destroy the Black Garden and The Vex's connection with The Deep in this system by destoyring the Vault of Glass. This Allows the Traveller to begin to heal....and Guardians to become more powerful. We then stop Crota's planned invasion of Earth....then pursue him back to his Throneworld and kill him. 3. We then stop a Fallen rebellion in the Reef, and forge an alliance with The Awoken. 4. This destroys a major source of tithed power to Oryx (he didn't really **care** for Crota). So he comes here seeking revenge and to make a statement. The Awoken fleet sacrifices itself at Saturn to allow the Queen to infiltrate and take control of Oryx's Throneworld....while we pursue him back to it and kill him as well. 5. Then the Red War starts, and I believe the Traveler tests us by allowing our power to be cut off....but then showing us a means to regain them. We do....and we show the Traveler that our commitment to protecting Humanity (and the Traveler) is genuione...and that we're willing to risk it all. We defeat Gaul, prevent the star system form being destroyed....and the Traveler awakes to prevent Gaul from becoming Risen. 6. With an awake Traveler, Guardians can not only become still more powerful....the Traveler (as confirmed in the cut scene in The Dreaming City, but only hinted at previously) can now create NEW Guardians to replace losses and increase the ranks. 7. At Mars we start to recover our Golden Age Heritage, and the technology that went with that by re-integrating Rasputin...and securing the Bray Facility. We also take advantage of the schism between the Hive and Worm Gods to defeat Xol and Nokris. 8. Cayde-6 is lost at The Prison of Elders....but his sacrifiece alerts us to the presence of the other Hive Gods in the system...and the threat of their machinations. We stop their advance....but trigger the Dreaming City curse. Essentially triggering a Cold War "arms race" with the Hive Gods. Savathun's "murder battery" makes Her more powerful....but its also making US more powerful as well with each cycle. As evidence by the fact that our paracausal power allows us to be aware of the time loop....and to create subtle changes with each cycle. We can't free ourselves from it yet....but we are not entirely at the mercy of it either. 9. Now with the Black Armory, we have recovered another part of our Golden Age legacy. Which puts even more powerful technology at our disposal. The only wild cards right now are The Drifter, his connections to the Shadows of Yor...and his plans for the Darkness. As well as Calus. Those storylines will probably be clarified in Seasons 6 and 7.

      • I wholeheartedly believe that my guardian is not the chosen one. He's just someone who keeps accidentally showing up at the right time, and people keep giving him credit for crap he didn't do.

          • you're quite correct with this, hopefully we add "Reclamation Kell" to our list of titles, if not though we all ways have Mithrax and Variks to gain such a title

            • i dont think Saint -14 is dead. Just trapped in a Vex time mechanism similar to the one in "Ghost Stories; No Rest for the Weary". question i think we should be asking is where is his ghost. i didn't spy a shell near his body.

              We have been doing what we have done through the help of unfair gaming mechanics, and help from others we are not the chosen ones and we definitely do not have the strongest light that’s reward probably goes to rezyl, saint or vell tarlowe Why because rezyl was revered as a god, saint even after death literally glows with he power of the light and vell tarlowe had an aura that made people feel invincible and I am pretty sure that my fire team doesn’t get a “I feel invincible” buff from my presence and I am not revered as a god and when I die I just fall over

                • We aren't that smart of a chosen one considering we can die from falling 2 feet.
