As far as we know, Cloudstriders have sacrificed their lifespan in order to augment themselves with cybernetics that empower them greatly. They have sacrificed so much to protect their city, they have been devoted to their city, they have shown bravery through such sacrifices.
Sound familiar? Those are the requirements (according to the Speaker during Red War, which have been more or less contradicted later) to become a guardian!
So what if later after Light Fall, we see Cloudstrider Guardians? That would be crazy! Think of how powerful they would be, with their augmentations on top of having the light!
Could this also be a potential race we can create guardians from apart from Human, Awoken, and Exo?
Looking forward to your thoughts, let's discuss!

I honestly want to see more about the Darkness and The Witness's followers. They seem far more interesting to me tbh, but I also would love to see more about what Golden Age (and post-Golden Age by now) technology looks like following The Collapse since this city is supposed to be untouched by it.
