Destiny is set in the 2700's. The golden age was when humans colonized other planets in the solar system, so how long ago was this from the games present day? Because I've been reading the grimoire cards and I've been seeing the word "ancient" a lot in the same sentence when talking about the golden. For example While the origins of the Future War Cult are greatly debated, their mark has been found on ancient chambers and encampments throughout the system, dating them back to the late Golden Age.
