Zavala has PTSD
During the Red War Zavala turns from a stoic commander to a defeated husk of a man. Once we save the day his disposition changes, but I got a feeling that the loss of the city still haunts him. During War-mind Zavala puts a noticeable emphasis on the fact that Ana wasn’t at the city to help defend it. During the events of Forsaken Zavala doesn’t want us to go, on official record of course, because we need to defend the city. Also after retrieving the body of Cayde, Zavala says “I refuse to burry any more friends”, meaning he still feels guilty for the Red War. Zavala is not a heartless monster. Zavala is suffering from PTSD, and now guardians are turning away from the Vanguard towards the Drifter.

5 RepliesLook at history never once did the former Vanguard commanders lose the city, Traveler, light, countless guardians(moon campaign and twilight gap probably came close). It all happened on his watch he was defenseless and helpless, then look at titan he called guardians to regroup there then the hive attacked. Now Cayde-6 a friend and fireteam member was murdered, the Vanguard is split and he’s reeling from it with no time to cope with it no one to talk to. He knows that he can’t show it that he needs to still appear as the Stoic Vanguard commander, but unfortunately he can’t hold it and is showing it.
