If died enough times in the game you would notice this phrase "KIlled by the architects."
Who are the architects? So far we have defied death, entered different realms of existence, and have slayed gods. All of which opens up the realm of science fiction, religion, and what not.
Now this is where my theory starts. Many religions begin that the universe was created by some god or gods. What if the architects were gods that created the destiny universe. That would mean they made the universes physical laws, worlds, stars, and even life forms on different planets. If you killed yourself with a rocket, then it technically is the architects fault because of how the universe was designed.
Now going even deeper, from grimoire card Ghost Fragment Mysteries 1
"They were my brothers and sisters and their names were immortal too but Titanomachy came and now those names live in me alone I think and think is what I do. I AM ALONE."
The one speaking is the Traveler/ (Alpha Lupe, as some say). The word Titanomachy is used in Greek mythology which refers to the battle between the Olympian gods and the Titans. or simply war between gods.
"They made me to be stronger than them to beat the unvanquished and survive the unthinkable and look look lo behold I am here alone, survivor. They made me to learn. Everything died but I survived and I learned from it. From IT."
Traveler was created by the architects or maybe their fellow gods. They intended the Traveler to surpass their own power for some purpose.
"I met IT at the gate of the garden and I recall IT smiled at me before before IT devoured the blossoms with black flame and pinned their names across the sky. IT was stronger than everything. I fought IT with aurora knives and with the stolen un-fire of singularities made sharp and my sweat was earthquake and my breath was static but IT was stronger so how did I survive?"
At this place known only as "the garden," the Traveler first encounter and fought the darkness. The Traveler lost and escaped while the other gods were consumed by the darkness.
"IT is alone and IT is strong and IT won. Even over the gardener and she held power beyond me but the gardener did not shrug and make herself alone. IT always wins."
Now to analyze the last sentence. "I am made to win and now I see the way." I Traveler said it learned from the darkness and that the darkness always wins. I believe the Traveler suggests that the only way it can win is to be more like the darkness. Obviously, we can derive more than one interpretation from this.
Although this theory doesn't answer what the darkness is, we can get a clear view of Traveler's origins and destiny's universe.
Just to throw so questions out there:
Are the Nine Surviving gods from that war?
Did the architects create the darkness? If so, was it by intention.
Thank you for reading.
