Evidence of "Dark Traveler Theory" - Is the Traveler evil?

The Traveler supposedly saved our worlds, sacrificed itself only for our benefit. But is this really the truth? Do we have any infallible evidence to prove this? We, at Binary Star Cult, do have a theory. We believe the Traveler may not be as "holy" as it is made out to be. It may have acted only in selfish reasons, or even in malicious ones. It could have brought the Darkness to our doorstep intentionally, or it could even BE the Darkness. However, you may ask yourself, how can this theory be any more correct than the one that states the goodness of the Traveler? The answer is: we have evidence. Or at least, we will. This is why this thread is being posted, to find, collect, and analyze the evidence of this theory. I will start it off with a piece of evidence below, from a ghost fragment. This thread is public. Anyone can put their facts or suspicions here. Don't be afraid to speak your mind. The smallest detail you may have could be the key to this entire theory. Although we firmly believe in this theory, we do not want to be blind like some of the followers of the Traveler. If you have any piece of evidence against this theory, if you still believe the Traveler is pure, please, tell us. If we cannot challenge and refute your hypotheses, then how valid are ours? Nevertheless, as promised, here is a bit of confirmation for the theory. Source: [url=http://destiny.gamepedia.com/Ghost_Fragment:_The_Traveler_2]Ghost Fragment: The Traveler 2[/url] This Grimoire card is a brief passage from "Dreams of Alpha Lupi." It says: [quote]"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."[/quote] The final line is the key to this evidence. It questions the whole nature of our quest to revive the Traveler. It is not a particularly strong piece of evidence, but we will find more. We will find out the truth about the Traveler. We will find out if I will ever stop speaking like some kind of holy priest giving a sermon. Please, contribute to this theory, not to support any faction or cult, but to support every player of Destiny by discovering the truth.

  • I see it but then again there are still so many cards that contradict what another card says. Being raised from the dead already isn't usually good. Heck for all we know we are fighting other humans that just appear to us as these creatures. Perception and mentality are everything. But just blindly going out and killing is a bit ridiculous. However when we see robots worshiping a dark blob of goo. I don't know how the story will piece together. A bunch of different orbs made by who knows what all have their own armies? So we all follow different orbs and kill each other? You can leave all the mysteries in the world in a game and I'll play but if we are going to have 3 different species/races to choose and classes, at least let there be some different story arcs or starting points. We all were revived in the same exact spot? Just happened to die in what? A drunk driving accident (since we were among a bunch of cars)? We are guardians but were not even BA enough to die on the battlefield? And the fact we were not able to go back to our revival location and at least do some more exploring is frustrating. If our revival was in some lab or preserved graveyard if you will. I'd really question the Travelers intentions. And if we are actually evil. Especially since Stranger danger lady is running around with no Ghost. But then wouldn't she know the truth and about the Traveler and not continuing to say there are more and more evil? So maybe we are all just evil and thats the point.
