Because THERE IS NO LIGHT HERE 😉 They are people in these comments that have heard a developed theory that explains everything... & predicted much of it. Mine. Convenient how the "heroes" are immortal but the "evils" aren't... not anymore, some were. Curious how all those "evils" are rivals and potential threats to... Savathun. It's a facade. The Witness, like Cronus of Greek Myth... IS a soul stealer. He/They dammed the junction of the Universe at the point of singularity called the pale heart. Wurm holes do not have a fixed point in space time... that's why the Traveler can move. The Traveler is a cosmic conduit/generator of power like a hydroelectric dam. Tldr, The Witness was not ready for the Final Shape yet. That's why. There's a multiverse in Destiny... the pale heart, the singularity allows the Witness to siphon energy from every universe... every timeline at once. The Awoken aren't even supposed to be here... nor Elsie. They are all here as a result of the singularity that exists inside the Traveler. The fundament, the distributary... exist within the same place during the same event. The confusion comes with the volatility of time so near the singularity... where the strength of gravity impacts... contracts and expands time so dynamically. This isn't made up fictional stuff either, these concepts and ideas exist in real word physics.
