Gambler’s Palm (Fanfic)

[url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/255114053?sort=0&page=0]Master Post[/url] ———————————————————————————————————— Hunter, Post Collapse [Pre Taken War], Louisiana. My story started after the Collapse occurred. My head was fuzzy, I couldn’t remember a thing. My ghost woke me up exactly when some fallen had shown up. I told them that we were not a threat. Yet, they ignored what I said, they were of the House of Kings. There were two dregs and one vandal. They immediately proceeded to open fire. I dodged the first few shots, yet I died during the second barrage of arc energy. The fight took only two wipes and 16 knife swings. After that was over we crossed the city ruins and made our way to an old military base. On the way there we had a chat. “What are you?” I asked the ghost. The ghost responded with this “I am a ghost, I am your ghost.” Once the chat was over we had finally made it to the old military base. We searched the base for a ship that we could use to get to the Last City. I found my gun, a modified P-90, on a table near the entryway. We proceeded further into the base, I asked my ghost more questions. One of those questions was about my identity. “Who am I?” I asked my ghost. All it responded with was this: “I never knew, not in your first life, that is, who you are is up for you to decide.” I then proceeded to check my pockets just in case there was something there that could help. All I found was nothing. We found the only functioning entrance to the hangar, the problem was that it was sealed by a keycard, that and a code. To open the door a keycard must be inserted or the passcode must be entered. My ghost got to work on opening the door. I looked around for a keycard to open the door. I eventually found one near a computer. The card had a person’s ID and their age on it, as well as their access level (1 - 7). The keycard was a level 7 access card from the security department. The person in the photo looked a lot like me. Hell, the keycard belonged me. The information on the card read as follows: “Larsnic Mcreed, Age: 21” I rushed over to door, and swiped the keycard. The door opened slowly, what was beyond it was a prototype ship. The ship in question was a “Phoenix-Class” Jumpship. The ship was complete with a warp-drive, Warmind stealth technology, among other things. The ship could only open on voice activation, or a finger ID. I touched the screen and the ship turned on. The AI that controlled the ship spoke exactly like Ray Bradbury. I told Bradbury to set the ship, which was named “Solar Eclipse”, to go to the Last City. While we were heading towards the City I told my ghost who I was, I showed him the keycard. He told me that his name was Nexus. We were followed by Fallen skiffs from the House of Kings. I switched the ship to autopilot and made my way to the turret control terminal. I set the turrets to arc energy and fired away at the skiffs. I knocked down two of them. The other five dodged the arc energy. I decided to use the seeker missiles to get rid of them. The missiles hit one skiff which caused a chain reaction and destroyed most of the other skiffs, the skiffs retreated back to Louisiana. We made it to the Last City safe and sound. Later I would have nightmares of past and present events. Though I did not know that now. The Tower offered a lot adventures that were to come, adventures that would shape my legacy as a Hunter. ———————————————————————————————————— [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/254846572?sort=0&page=0]A Hunter’s Vengeance[/url]

    YourMom gave some excellent advice, but there’s a little more that needs correction. Archons are not navigators, Servitors are. Archons are caretakers for Servitors and communicate between Servitors and other Fallen. If Mithrax calls your Guardian an Archon, it’s because they plan on using him as a connection between House Light and the City, to communicate in a way. That would be pretty cool, actually. Also, Mithrax (and probably some of his followers) speak English. Even the ones that don’t know English might have glossators that can translate (though they most likely don’t have any glossators). Your Guardian wouldn’t understand their language, and your Ghost probably wouldn’t either. As YourMom said, we knew nothing of Mithrax before the Taken King, but he was with the Awoken. And [i]House Dusk did not exist until just before the Red War.[/i] Now Mithrax is the Kell of House Light. So this story should take place after the Red War and be called Letters from a Light Achon. I hope all that helps. May I add this to the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/245771343/0/0]Archive[/url]? [spoiler]The Archive is a collection of posts on Destiny Companion. They contain an alphabetical list of writers in the Destiny community and links to their stories and creative writings. Basically, with your permission, I put your name in with a link to your writing. You get all the credit, and everyone has easy access to your story at all times. To find out more about the Archive, follow the link above (click the yellow word “Archive”). If you do not respond, I will assume you are inactive and wait about a week before adding your story to the Archive. If at any time you ask me to remove your story from the Archive, I will do so.[/spoiler]
