They’re probably discolored bits from that big broken circle thing (forgot whatever it was) but it’s a cool speculation

[quote]So, I’ve been back into Crota’s End recently to help a friend through their first run, and that was when I saw it. From the Bridge, if you look up and scope in around the Oversoul, it’s surrounded by floating red blobs! I thought this was super neat, and a neat bit of foreshadowing for Shadowkeep. Frankly, I can’t believe I never noticed this before. Makes you think about the origins of the Scarlet Fortress’s builders. Edit: Here’s some footage my buddy and I took today from the bridge. The proof for all those asking. https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/capt-waffles92/video/77221058 https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/capt-waffles92/video/77221071 https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/spartan-25798/video/77221065[/quote] Nothing new. Knowing bungie they'd most likely reuse old textures or effects to make certain things, so Also i fail to see exactly in what way can that texture have anything to do with how the theme will be red / scarlet

Those were always there and I doubt it's foreshadowing. If there is any connection, it's more likely they looked back at the raid and said to themselves "how can we connect some things?".

[Interesting.]
