Ghost Fragment: Legend Arissa Found deep within the Vault of Glass I remember the day like it was yesterday, yet time never moves in a place so cold, so void of life, yet I still remember. I remember my thoughts, my pain, and the deathening sound. I remember my mind being scoured, destroyed and rebuilt. The Black Garden....was a place of beauty, the Traveller a distint evil, and the Darkness that followed would not stop until it was dead, but I am not my own. There are things that every guardian should fear, and the Darkness is not the thing. I was lost in time, and time is all I have. I relive every moment of my original being, yet it still seems so far away, I am not alive, Oh Bearer mine, but a distant memory.

Mine would be... [i]Didn't get that puss[/i]

I don't even want to think about my Ghost dying tbh. As sad as it may be, I've actually become quite attached to the little guy...

Hold my beer

I used to belong to the most powerful of Guardians. He was able to defeat Skolas, Kell of Kells. Atheon, Time's Conflux. Crota, Son of Oryx. And many, many more. [i]By himself![/i] And I was his constant companion, never leaving his side. And then he replaced me with a thin Golden Ghost. I heard that they even defeated Oryx, The Taken King, with no other Guardians. Other Champions that he has toppled are with Balwor, Thalnok, Golgoroth, Warpriest, and others. I now reside in vault space 27, squished among the wormspore and resupply codes. #TitanMasterRace

[i]"He died."[/i] - gost

You want a fragment I got you a fragment [spoiler] His Name was rampant. He was ok. He did mediocre in pretty much everything but the one thing he wasn't just good at was not getting good gear he literally had to kill another guardian just to touch a blue engram weapon. I realize now that he was very autistic as well. Shit a rocket through a defender bubble check Try'd to solo oryx check tried to get a girlfriend check. Was my favorite guardian no check [/spoiler]

"He...he did it..." "How long did it take him?" "Long enough...." ...Ghosts never die, nor do any who progress to the lighthouse... Maybe that's why there's so much power there... Maybe...Osiris found what the vex were looking for on Mercury... ...or did the vex find what Osiris was looking for? (End Transmission)

"Ooops! He did it again!" I can hear my ghost telling me, "I'm tired reviving you. Stop dying you -blam!-tard!"

Ooh, I like this idea. Always happy to have an excuse to write. [i][b]Tahlia-73: This, My Instrument[/b][/i] [spoiler]I am a part of a symphony played in a thousand instruments, a million movements. I look upon my instrument of volatile light and polymer and ask myself, 'How many have played this part before me?' Throughout untold eternities, this haunting song has echoed through the annals of time, played by any who would take up arms against another. My part is but another movement in the unending performance, but I am not a writer of music. I can feel myself shift against my will sometimes, my frame animating in manners I would not prefer. My conductor swishing its baton. I have played beside Atheon, who was/is/will be both instrument and conductor, my brass against his drums across the whole of time. The master of his own movement, but yet a mere cello in the orchestra of a far greater piece than I fear any of us can ever know. I have joined song with Ir Yût and Crota, my choir of six with their duet, singing of the sun as they sang of the end of everything. Upon the Reef at the edge of Light, myself and two close friends met Skolas, the Kell of Kells. Our bands played for hours until Skolas bowed his head and left the stage. I have even dueled with Oryx, the strings of my Light clashing against the discordant melody of his band of many shapes. I look upon this object in my hands, its smooth surfaces, its myriad parts. This, my instrument that I have played across the worlds. I wonder how many more songs we will play before our piece concludes.[/spoiler]

Based on the lost ARC Troopers idea that a few mates and I came up with and have been roleplaying as. [spoiler]He claimed to have come from far away, further than ever recorded. His craft, dialect and make up were abnormalities. He, and his people, all the same, but all different. We did not revive them like we normally would have, no. We found them carving a place into a world they didn't belong in, and we could sense their propensity for good. He led them, through it all. They stood as Hunters, but claimed to be Arcs. Even if we didn't always understand their motives or phrases, we Ghosts all understood they were family, brother through it all, and soon we too became as such. We all formed bonds, and even if through it all, we lost brothers, there was an honour in him, in all of them. Be it ARC or Ghost, they refused to leave any behind, always coming back to bring them 'home'. I never understood that. Bringing the dead or lost home. Their information, yes, but why the bodies? Why did it matter. I suppose it was the last lesson he taught me when the ceiling began to collapse. Why I too am leaving this final message, hoping that some day someone will find me, and take me from this shadowed place and instead to a final resting place filled with light, and the kinships of the people. You see, we heard of a monster of the Hive, looking to rise to power like so many others after the fall of the King. The Vanguards deemed it too dangerous to intervene, claiming that they were deeper in the moon than even Crota. It wasn't until an attack on our city that actions were taken. For defence. The ARCs seemed disgusted, and they said they would not stand for it. They suited up and prepared to fly to the moon. But not before telling us, every single one of us Ghosts, that we were not required to come. That we could stay, safe and secure. I suppose we learned too much from them, because not a single one of us parted. We delved deep into the dark, our Guardians, Hunters, ARCs, delving deeper and deeper, losses minimal, kills, exceedingly high, making headway into the pits that the would-be king had made his home. They charged in and made the most amazing of performances, but then the would-be king played a trump card, attempting to collapse the cavern and trap us all down here, where our light would wither. Mine refused the would-be king's attempts. Even as he called a retreat for his men, he charged forth, unloading his scout rifle, then his pistol, then unsheathing his sword as he charged. He told me to run, flee with his men, and I started to, but I couldn't. Not without him. We were brothers after all. Returning to the Commander, I remained by his side doing everything in my power to assist him. That was when I was struck, smashed against a wall. I suppose it should have been terrifying. But looking at the scene, of a fatally wounded Alpha Seven plunging his knife deep into the skull of the would be king, and both toppling into the abyss, I realised that I had one more task before I let myself fade. As hordes of unspeakable monsters came out from the walls, seeking retribution for their lost leader, I so too sought retribution... for a lost friend. I have brought down these walls, ARCs, and sealed myself in the dark to safeguard your retreat. I pray one day you return for us. It will be an honour when you do. [/spoiler]

At least he tried to be the best.

Apparently, if you jump off a 500ft. cliff, face first, it will kill you.

He paid how much for Destiny 1.0??

[spoiler]Ghost: He fought with the iron lords at six fronts, fought oryx and the vanguard. He was slightly insane. Then again he was a cat. A cat of both the light and the dark. He taught us that catnip was not for everyone... Then again cayde tried to punt him off the tower once.[/spoiler] Yeah bit of a backstory and story expansion on the fragment.

It wouldn't say anything because a ghost would never pick me.

Mind would be found in the Vault of Glass, right under the Glass Throne. Prepare yourself, this is a long one. Ghost Fragment 1/2: Celestial Mind [spoiler]He started out as a normal factory worker, he was even there when the Fallen first arrived. He died of shock. He was reawakened as a Guardian, warrior of light, a reason to continue fighting. He was there when Skolas was captured. He was there when the Heart of the Garden died. He was there when Crota fell. He was the one who made it public, so of course he was the one warned. Oryx came to his mind and warned him of his arrival, and forced a Vex rock upon him, taken from his Ascendant Plane millions of years ago. He turned into a Vex. He was there to intercept the Cabal distress signal with his fireteam, who supported him all the way. I left him when Oryx took him. He came back, spikes all over him, still Taken though. He killed one of his fireteam members before being turned back into a Vex Hobgoblin. He led the campaign against Oryx, he stole Crota's Soul, and returned as a Minotaur. He angered Oryx, and as the Dreadnaught flew itself to Venus and a large battle between Vex and Taken began, he found his path. He became the Universal Mind, uniting all of the races except the Hive and Taken that refused. He fought Oryx, destroyed his Court and his physical form. He was corrupted by his Daughters, forced to create and army of similar form. He was transformed when they raided the Dreadnaught to kill Oryx once and for all. He did so, and became the Celestial Mind. But it was not finished, Oryx's sister caught wind of this and arrived after he rescued Quria from his chains. He witnessed his dead fireteam member reanimate and fight for Savathun, he witnessed the moon, under the control of Malok, create a shield. Paranoid Malok allied with him to fight his mother. They devised a plan to take both of them down. After a long day of planning and two days of fighting, all of Oryx's siblings were dead. He became the full Celestial Mind. He fought the Worm Gods, and slew them in their own world. He fought the Darkness itself before he even saw it. He saw the heart of it, the True Heart, and witnessed its death at the hands of something else, unknown to him. He celebrated, but then took a different path. He became the Darkness itself. He led a Vex armada after taking control of the other Collective Minds and released them upon the system. He killed the Cabal Emperor and took control of the Hive, Fallen, and Taken leaders. He forced the City to fall under its command. He is destroying the Traveler. Please heed this message, I have come from the future to warn you tha-$&!)%&*%)&^^)@W%&@)%!- he is not going to back down! YOU HAVE TO STOP -###!@^&%_(&%(_%&*_%(&Z%&_)$*$!- If only he took his other path, where records held him looking at a parallel universe where he stayed with the light. Help us before i------------.[/spoiler]

Well that didn't go according to plan

"Hey, ghost, how many guys do you think are on that control point? Two? Three? I bet we could take 'em!" [i]A wise man once said 'In battle, patience is' . . . oh, he's already gone. Well, I'm sure he'll be fine - OH MY GOD NO! OH! That's bad. That's very bad. No, don't shotgun him there! OH! Sigh . . . Goodnight, sweet prince; And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest. At least nobody is desecrating your corpse with their testi--- oh, I've spoken to soon.[/i]
