What's on your Destiny lore wish list? Destiny is host to vast swathes of lore, characters, and stories, and some areas recieve more attention than others. So if there was a single area of Destiny's lore that could or should have a moment in the spotlight, what would it be? Go wild.
(Obviously there's the immediate stuff; the Veil, the Witness, the Black Fleet, etc... hopefully answers for these are coming soon.)
I'll go first:
At the top of my lore related wish list would be the Destiny Universe equivalent of a Bestiary. Either as an in-game lorebook, in which new entries are unlocked by slaying the associated creature, or as a physical Grimoire Anthology that goes over all the major enemies and creatures that call the Destiny universe home. Heck both would be nice.
Next thing would be lore regarding the Maraid/Reef Wars lore from D1. Most D2 New Lights have no idea what the Reef Wars were or why they were important. Just reading through the synopsis of the Maraid shows how epic a conflict the Reef Wars was. Having a formal written lorebook for it would do a lot for adding to the lore of Reef and the Reef Awoken who live beyond the Dreaming City.
After that, I would love to see more Destiny comics. I don't know about everyone else, but I really enjoyed the comics on Ana Bray and Cayde-6. The Cayde's Six comic did a lot to help give some background context for Forsaken expansion. More stories like that are always be welcome, from my perspective. Comics that tell the story of characters we don't normally see, or who exist only in the lore. Characters like Shayura, Reed-7, Aisha, Sjur Eido, Lord Felwinter, Lady Efrideet, Sister Faora, Shin Malphur, Dredgen Yor, Lysander, etc...
So what's on your lore related wish list? Let's discuss, o reader mine.

Oryx gifted here Quria with the intention of it sabotaging her later on. I want to know if and/or when she figured that out, and if that's why/how she orchestrated the events of Splicer. Seriously, Quria was too good of a plot point to simply murk at the end of a seasonal story. I want to know more about the whereabouts of Asher's ghost after the events of Arrivals. To my knowledge, it was never mentioned that she died, but I don't recall them ever explaining much of what happened to her after Asher heads to the Pyramidion. I want to know more about Drifter's ghost. To my recollection, we have only ever heard of Drifter's side of their "companionship," and never once heard anything from his ghost's perspective. Fikrul's status since his eviction from the Tangled Shore. We have no idea if he's aligned with the Witness or still following his own agenda, or if he's even aware of Crow's existence. The status of the remaining worm gods. So far only Akka and Xol are confirmed dead (well, Xol is now a gun), and Xita is heavily implied to be dead (but never outright stated to my knowledge), but nothing has been really mentioned about Yul, Eir, and Ur. More lore on Shaxx, either as his days as a warlord or how his demeanor has changed during the City Age. In particular I'd love to see Shaxx's more serious side at play, as we do not really see much of it behind all of his Crucible fanaticism.
