HUGE plot hole in the Regicide mission!

OK, so here again is another huge plot hole I've found in Destiny's fascinating plot! So, in the Regicide mission before Oryx 'tests' you to see if you're worthy, he says this: "[i]You... are the last hope of the Light? I have taken entire worlds. You are not worthy to face me." [/i] and sends his two ultras to fight you. But wait! There's something strange, isn't there?! He says 'I have taken entire worlds.', well let's go back a few centuries. When the Traveller arrived, he 'took' many planets with light so terraformed them to give them life, right? You died approximately when the Collapse happened. Well, now that we're Guardians of the Traveller, that means we're technically a big part of him since Ghosts are our companions which are made 100% from the Traveller's light, so we really represent the Traveller, do we not? So the Traveller DID take some worlds for US. Which means, we are technically worthy to face him already since we have already taken 'entire' worlds, mostly Venus, Mars, the Moon, Mercury, etc etc basically. So either Oryx is stupid and stupidly apoplectic for us killing his son or this is another huge plot hole, [b]BUNGIE[/b]. I would appreciate if a story director or a worker of some sort gave an explanation for this kind of silly plot hole, and perhaps plans to change this dialogue to a more suiting one.

  • Oryx and his sister's have been destroying entire systems and species for billions of years, all while chasing the traveler. The traveler tries to fight back every time its found by infusing a chosen species with light. Now it's crippled and can't flee. We, the guardians, are its last defense. We are the "last hope of the light". What oryx is saying is that he has destroyed species after species, world after world, that have been "blessed" by the traveler. What hope do we have to beat him where countless thousands of others failed?
