Message from Cmdr. Zavala to All Guardians: "It has come to my attention that a disturbing behavior among Guardians has resumed, one that I thought we had managed to eliminate. With the resumption of SRL, among the available rewards is the chocolate Ghost shell, which made its debut at last year's Crimson Days festival. Following said festival, we had a rash of deplorable incidents where Guardians would actually eat one other's Ghosts. Sadly, the same has happened with several Guardians recently: they've deployed their Ghost and left it unattended, and returned to find it gone. A few perpetrators have even been caught, either in the act of consuming a Ghost or with chocolate all over their hands and faces. The Vanguard hardly needs to remind all of you that if a Guardian's Ghost ceases to exist, he can no longer serve the Vanguard effectively. Not only will his ability to channel the Traveler's light be diminished, but his next death (be it by enemy fire or simple misdaventure) will be his last. We Guardians are the only thing standing between humanity's continued survival and its utter annihilation, and we cannot afford to lose any more of our number. If the Vanguard hears of any more incidents of this nature, we will take the most severe action against the guilty parties." Ikora: "The Ghost is pure understanding. The chocolate is pure power. The chocolate ghost shell is both the question and the answer. And thus, what it truly means to be a warlock." Cayde: "Appalling practice. Absolutely appalling. Guardians snacking on each other's Ghosts?! The nerve! What, that brown stain on my cheek? That's... ah, engine oil. I was helping Holliday with some jumpship repairs." The Speaker: "I can't believe the Vanguard hasn't stamped out this practice. If the Traveler had hands, it would be doing a facepalm. If I had a face, so would I." Lord Shaxx: "I don't care how badly you beat an opposing Guardian in the Crucible. He DOES NOT have to let you eat his chocolate Ghost Shell." Ghost: "Making a Ghost shell out of an edible substance. Doesn't that seem kind of... I don't know, odd?" Executor Hideo: "If the Last City had the right kind of leadership, they'd put a stop to this ghost shell-eating nonsense in a heartbeat." Arach Jalal: "Perhaps there is chocolate on other planets." Lashemi-2: "I hardly need to remind you all that a Guardian whose Ghost has been eaten is a Guardian who can no longer wage war." Eris: "I prefer raisins, myself. And celery. Did you ever have ants on a log, celery with peanut butter on it and raisins on top? Best snack ever." Xur: "Sorry. The Nine are happy to share their exotics, engrams, sparrow drives, and mysterious consumables. But there is no way they're parting with any of their chocolate." Rasputin: "Chocolate fine and good, but give me a nice pirozhki any day of week." Shiro: "I'm an Exo. Exos don't like chocolate. OK, I know Cayde does, but he's just weird." Saladin: "Even old wolves still bite... into chocolate." Wolves: "Owwwwoooooooooooo!" (translation - "Chocolate's OK, but we'll take steak.") Tyra: "If you do noble deeds in the Plaguelands, I'll give you a half-kilo Hershey bar." Eva: "Bring me all the chocolate you can find. I will trade it to you for a flimsy paper Oryx mask." Rahool: "Hmmmm. I wonder if chocolate comes from brown engrams." Jolder (archived): "When I shoulder charge, I just pretend there's a big box of chocolates where I'm going. It's how I build up so much speed." Message from the Sunbreaker Cult: "Keep your chocolate ghost shells off our planet, unless you want them to be Ghost Fondue. It's 300 degrees in the shade over here." Mara Sov: "Petra. Bring the chocolate ghost... to me." Petra Venj: "I can't find it anywhere, your grace." *burp* Variks: "If someone eats your chocolate ghost, eat his ghost baaaack." Oryx: "I will take them all. And eat their chocolate ghosts myself." EDIT: A few more... [i]Crota: "But Dad, you said you were gonna share the chocolate Ghosts with me." Omnigul: "I want chocolate too! And if you don't give me some, I'm gonna scream! [b]EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" [/b] Aksis: "I hate chocolate. It gums up all my lovely machine parts. Give me a good industrial lubricant any day." Holliday: "My mama loved chocolate. She loved it a lot. She thought about calling her special shotgun 'The Milky Way Bar'." Banshee: "You take care of that chocolate ghost, Guardian. And your gun." Exo Stranger: "I wasn't talking to you, Little Chocolate Ball." Prince Uldren: "Such a barbaric group, eating their own lifelines without care *takes bite out of chocolate Ghost shell* but I must say it is worth it. Would you care for a bite, sister?"

Efrideet: "I love chocolate, but I mustn't eat it here. I'd have to take my helmet off and show my face." [Credited to Dharak Colossus] Taniks, the Scarred: "I challenge you, in the ways of old! The winner gets chocolate!" [Credited to NaClire] Sweeper Bot: "All this damn chocolate everywhere... how am I suppose to clean it up without my broom?" [credited to ReckNeckRebel] Templar: *Makes His Hydra Noises* (translation: "I don't mind [chocolate], I just wish those guardians would stop farming me for my trophy hand cannon.") Vosik: "I always wanted chocolate, but I never got money from my master Aksis to get any." Aksis's Response: "HEY! You're the one that always used it for modified Siva weaponry!" Sepiks Perfected: "Nah, I'd rather have cherry pie." Golgoroth: "I EAT LIGHT! But I'll settle for white chocolate." Ghaul: "Why won't the Traveler give me any of its chocolate?" Osiris: "Come, little light. We have all of reality to look for chocolate in." Brother Vance: "When Osiris returns, he will bring us all enormous gifts of chocolate!"
