It’s good storytelling. It shows that what The Traveler brings back from death isn’t the original personality. It means 1 of 3 things. 1. It’s a completely different person, and the body is just a vessel. 2. It’s the same person, but the Traveler only brings back the aspects that are “of The Light. In that person’s character/soul. 3. It’s what that person would have been without the influence of the Darkness. In The Crow/Uldren’s case, I lean towards option 3. Since—-as Awoken—-his entire life was controlled by others (Awoken are a matriarchal society. So he had status as royalty, but no real power as a male), and by the Darkness. First the fusion of Light and Dark that created the Awoken. The machinations of Mara Sov who basically abandoned him as an “acceptable loss” (Uldren was [i]Fosaken[/i] by her) in her war with The Hive. Abandoned to the predatory interest in him by the Amhakara Riven. An unhealthy fascination that Mara knew she had...and after being Taken by Savathun..she poisoned and manipulated his mind with even more Darkness. Ironically it was his unacknowledged desire for power to match his royal status as a Prince, that both Riven and The Darkness used as a way into his mind, to both corrupt both that desire and that mind. IMO, the vision The Traveler was showing The Crow was about an opportunity at redemption. To live a life were he was finally free to chose his own path. Free from the dark designs of others. So you hear in him a level of self awareness (ironically from someone with amnesia) and a level of empathy that was never there in Uldren. Who was so trapped in his sister orbit and her long history of The Game of Queens (manipulation and intrigue) that he was more her shadow than his own person. A shadow she discarded when is ceased to be useful.
