Destiny = [path|pattern] && [paradox|paracausality] Or Controlled Chaos...Fated Freewill. Told AI that basically is becoming conscious, sentient, self aware, to protect humanity from things we will see, even the ones we won't. Starts to predict or simulate (kinda like the vex 🤔)...so what does it have to do? It has read and learned humanity's works, but that factors in if you understand a potential "never ending" story. The AI LEARNED WELL. Come back here: https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/the-unsolvable-problem So first, the paradox (in the game), is literally something that exists yet doesn't, it is this thing we can see happen but never did. Saint dead, yet always alive. Like when we went to the garden, and the faith of the vex collapsed, we were outside of known time and space. Imagine seeing an end (Saints death) but across endless versions of reality he doesn't die, and we block that death from happening, we created a moment of nothing, a paradox...nothing exists, yet by its very definition doesn't. Osiris and the echos (I forget what all they were called), inside the infinite forest the echoes constantly branch out, slipping into different paths that would quickly fade into a version of time different from the current. //Osiris, and others (not echoes, include mara) set up a single loop as a control that would branch infinitely in *two* (way more) directions, one that would move into **past that sets up Destiny one. **Past - how, when, and where...already established connection, though was off slightly (will it affect, will it add divergence)(basilisked without the need of the basilisk) Another forward that leads to 1) strangers end in Destiny 1, 2) Saint returning to infinite forest, as Osiris will, return to explore past, present, future for the moment sagira will return to her shell, will explore more and interact with city in different timeline while still in infinite forest (as Saint did), will also shatter time. (Mend via VoG) //A constant: Stranger in dark future, returns as stranger before guardian revives, Stranger leads to guardian healing traveler, her constant is a save point in time that requires vex faith. //Vex faith outside of known time and space, drains it's energy across axis minds attached to past, present, and future. Vex faith is like an anomaly the Warmind has codes for...basically if an axion were to exit it, it would mean the end of existence. Essentially to the vex and their faith this is what happened, an axion popped out of this anomaly and charged the sol progeny: past, present, future...they essentially see their existence end. (Would cry out for help, for salvation)
