Must have missed faction rallies. The factions are 3 different belief systems that normally split the guardian population. Future War Cult- you saw their leader. They are a bunch of war crazed crazies. They are afraid of a war that is combing to us. Essentially they want to kill everyone who they [i]think[/i] could become a threat to us, before they even did anything. There were a few rumors(provided by our ghost btw) flying around that the cabal didn’t actually want to fight us, we started a fight with them. Basically imagine walking up to the cabal(who are acting friendly) and start shooting them all. Dead orbit- their leader, arach jalaal, is right underneath the future war cult. They are a bunch of cowards and wimps. They fear the same war that future war cult believes in is coming, but they also believe we can’t beat it and that we should leave the solar system. Another major belief point(this was on the top of their list of beliefs) is that the Traveler is never going to wake up and we are on our own. Now why they still exist with their number one belief proven wrong, I have no clue. New monarchy- their leader is on the other side of the tower, next to hawthorn. They believe we need good leadership in charge of the people... that is it. Really the talking points are on what type of government. Which their name implies as a monarchy. If you go to the bannerfall map are green flags around that belong to another faction, the concordat. During the faction wars they started a rebellion against the city(I think it was actually the speaker) and they eventually got destroyed. The vanguard thought that having just two factions would not be enough so that is when future war cult joined the others in the tower(they were previously one of the most popular factions among the city and the vanguard let them into the tower) if you want more info on the concordat you would have to ask someone else, I never understood that part of the lore to a great extent. Edit: I put the wrong faction
