[url]https://www.destinypedia.com/Grimoire:Allies/The_Traveler[/url] "[b][u]The Traveler[/u][/b] [i]Everything changed with the coming of the Traveler. [u]It gave us gifts[/u] that transformed the solar system and the nature of human life. It ushered in the Golden Age, a time of miracles. [u]But it never shared its deepest secrets[/u]. Where did the Traveler come from? Why did it offer us so much? Did it know it was being hunted across the stars? And why, when the Darkness came, did it choose to stay and fight for us? Now the Traveler hangs, silent, above humanity's final sanctuary. It may be healing. It may be dying. It gave everything it had to save us. And now its power lies with us, its Guardians.[/i] [b][u]Ghost Fragment: The Traveler[/u][/b] [i]You have lived as invisibly as possible, flicking from solar system to solar system, [u]making grand plans[/u], overseeing the culturing of civilizations, before leaving in a blink. But you have no recollection of ever wanting worship or even thanks from those blessed by you. But memory is heavy now. It feels like lead and neutronium and electroweak matter fashioned into a moon-sized ball that you must carry as you move. Now, your flight is rapid, your vast mind infected with such dread and toxic doubt that you find yourself afraid of the simple act of thought. [u]And it is your children you must turn to now, in time of need.[/u][/i] [b][u]Ghost Fragment: The Traveler 2[/u][/b] [i]This has been such a long chase. This will be the place you will fight. Fight and win. But do you really know why you go where you go, and where this journey is taking you? The chase leads you where you need to be, you believe. Unless...you are being pushed.[/i] [b][u]Ghost Fragment: The Traveler 3[/u][/b] [i]The knife had a million blades. And you were giant, powerful and swift. But the knife pinned you. Cut your flesh away. Very little was left, you are sure, because you feel insignificant now. The hard slick heart of your soul: That is what remains. [u]A body small as a river stone[/u], and just as simple. You picture yourself as a piece of indigestible grit, [u]a nameless nothing hiding among other nameless stones[/u]. Perhaps you glitter like a gem, yes. Pride makes you hope so. If only you could see yourself. But you have no eyes. Not the dimmest sense survives. What lives is memory, and what slim portion of these thoughts can you [u]trust[/u]? The knife stole much more than your body".[/i] This isn't about the Traveler... It is and it isn't. It's about "Secrets". Here's the exercise; read this as though it was a person... a [spoiler]"Mother".[/spoiler] [u][b]"And it is your children you must turn to now, in time of need".[/b][/u] This about the false [spoiler]Mother.[/spoiler] This is Savathun, the moment she accepted the "gift"... when she was cursed. That's my theory. I have a post coming called "Secrets". She's talking about stones in a pond... who was talking about that recently 😉? Hmmm? Who's daughter is she? Thank you @Veilfire07... I was hoping someone would bring up this lore 😇👍💠. Note: We're getting closer and closer to my theory, we're almost there. Where? I'm not 100% sure... BUT (don't read the next spoiler) who fits? If this was a person talking about pond stones & secrets? Her children? [spoiler]Osana Sov [/spoiler] Where would you... could you place such cosmic pond stones? I won't answer this one. Where does this story begin & end? "making grand plans" ""There is only the plan," Illyn said".
