Darkness. Light.

What is the ‘darkness’ what is the ‘light’ Why did the traveler our.... ‘saviour’ wait and wait and wait ...right up until itself was in danger. While our children were slaughtered and culled, while the innocent were crushed beneath the red legion. Perhaps the life of one exo was not worth the enormous effort to spark up. Is the traveler our saviour or is it our damnation. What caused the eliksni to fall. What horrible crimes did they commit to not be worthy of salvation. What made humanity so special, So great that we were worthy of the power to slay gods and monsters alike. What makes the light so... ‘good’? What makes it so that when a guardian commits an evil deed, he is corrupted by darkness, that it is the so called darkness that is the manifestation of evil. Is it? What makes the light so infallible. What makes the traveler good? The light is a blade it’s actions are not in question it has no fault for the machinations of its wielder. What of the darkness Is it not too a blade, it’s edge to be commanded by a swordsman, its actions not its own but those of its wielders. What of the ‘Salvation’ and the ‘traveler’ are they the voices of the light and darkness? Their manifestations? or are they simply the wielders. Where do we stand? Are we worshipers of a false machine god? A god that is not as benevolent as we wish it was. Or are we guardians of humanity.

    • Could the traveler be a false god? Why do we follow this orb in the sky? From what I can tell it can barely defend itself... light and dark may not necessarily mean good and evil. You must find balance, guardian.

    • There is a very thin line between dark and light guardian. - Uldren sov 2019 (before around 100,000 guardians put a bullet in his skull thank -blam!-)

    • I see you are compromised and have started down the path of heresy. Shin Malphur will be watching.

    • The Darkness is correct, but that doesn’t mean I’m giving up my Light, I can use it however I want until the Traveler intervenes

    • Given that the Traveler is indirectly the reason for our existence. You must answer this question, is this life worth living even though it is filled with limitless pain and suffering? Make your decision and you'll have your anwser: Yes=Light means Death and a Rebirth cycle. The lesser decide amongst themselves who consumes who. No=Darkness means Nothing. The consumption from a higher power upon the lesser, and you're the cattle or harvest.

    • [quote]A god that is not as benevolent as we wish it was.[/quote] Better then the other god who came here and kicked our butts into a Collapse. To think otherwise is kinda....selfish.
