Spoiler.... [spoiler] The speaker is dead. There is even a voice line in the new tower you go and find, and they say he died. They made an apartment for him, but it is empty since the man died from his ordeal. He was not the original speaker though, and maybe we will get a new one. To find the place, go toward the bazaar, but before going down the stairs, take a sharp right where there seems to be a dead end over looking the little tree in the courtyard below.. Ghost will prompt a scan. [/spoiler]

[b][u]SPOILERS[/b][/u] [spoiler]While Exploring the Tower, my girlfriend scanned something and the ghost mentioned The Speaker. He said something about the speaker being bead and that he wasn't the first speaker and he won't be the last. I don't know exactly where it was, but I can find out from her later.[/spoiler]

[quote]So I've finished the destiny 2 story (good stuff bungie). [u][b]SPOILERS[/b][/u] [spoiler]But what happens to the speaker after Consul releases him? Does he die? Does he live? And will we ever know what his real name is or perhaps how he looks like?[/spoiler] Thanks.[/quote] We may know in the future!
