[b]TIMELINE:[/b]
Pre-GoldenAge, Traveler Discovery, Golden Age, Darkness Discovery, The Collapse, the after effects (Forming the Consensus, Building the City, ect.), Destiny I, The Future/Sequels.
Being an Awoken breaks the game. I know your attention span is about 10 minutes #Destiny, so I'll keep it brief.
In game lore fact: Your character died before the Traveler Discovery. This is implied and stated through quotes and the story (or lack thereof).
In game lore fact: The Awoken were created by the Collapse, after they tried to escape into space. This is stated by grimoire, promotions for the game, and many other things.
Rationalized Opinion: Your character, an Awoken who can channel the Travelers light, should not exist because the Awoken did not exist until after the Collapse. Think about it. Your character has to be "Pre-GoldenAge" and the Collapse does not occur until later down the timeline.
So, Bungie, you screwed up. Now what? We get it, Staten leaving leaves the story much to be desired. The one thing you should not do is ignore this.
Plz Leik, Folo, Rate, Subscribe, Reblog, Sacrifice to Satan, ect.
[i]So, #Destiny, what do you think of this? Discuss.[/i]

What leads you to believe our characters are "pre-traveler discovery" I never got that impression. The collapse happened centuries ago, guardians have been around for a while by the time the game starts. Awoken could have easily returned to earth when they failed to escape, and then died there to be resurrected later. The only odd thing I see is why did it take them hundreds of years to figure out you could weild the light. One crazy idea I have is that light is actually souls. Your ghost is literally that, YOUR SOUL. Captured by the traveler when earth was attacked, that's why it has to find you specifically, why you don't remember anything, why he knows everything etc. He's a disembodied you and the flesh is just a puppet.
