What does your Faction mean to you?
Hello and welcome Guardians! for those who still recognize my name it's been a while, for everyone else, HELLO! i'm AnonPig, i do the lore things.
But today I'm here to ask you that very simple question, there are three Factions in Destiny and they all have their own philosophical stance on how to do things in the Destiny Universe, i align with Dead Orbit myself because i feel it's the most logical answer. Holding on to our planets and our lost Golden Age is a mistake, we can find a better life out there among a different star.
so what does your Faction mean to you? (answers may be read on the corresponding Faction episode of my podcast the Destiny Lore Cast, go check out our episode with Baxter from https://www.ishtar-collective.net linked above!)

I ally with Future War Cult. Their lore is interesting and complex, but it's not my cup of tea. I agree with their philosophy more than the others though. If Dead Orbit is a representation of the need to escape, FWC is the will to survive. Out of the three available factions I believe it is most important that we don't abandon this will. We have the eternal enemy of our god at our doorstop, who we were created to destroy. I am here to fight and fight I shall. The methods that FWC use, don't really interest me. But at one point the Darkness will come and it will force us to fight and live, or die. I choose to fight. New Monarchy has a good idea, to bring back the Golden Age and to push humanity's limits, which is good, and should be there. But it is pointless if we die. Dead Orbit is the one we could do without, or at least, in my opinion they are using their talents in the wrong way. At the end of the day we choose our favourite factions (lore wise) because we think the others have chosen the wrong option.
