Destiny 2 Lore -The Implications of Transcendence for The Final Shape & The Universe of Destiny!

- Destiny 2's Lore and Story from the Final Shape Reveal tells us of Prismatic, a fusion subclass of Light and Darkness. This subclass allows you to manipulate both Light and Darkness to gain Transcendence. The implications of this fusion of Light and Dark for the Final Shape, The universe of Destiny & The Traveller itself are enormous. Today I discuss whether through Transcendence we can become a new Final Shape.

I remember that some time ago, you theorized that the Final Shape would be us, the Guardians, wielding both Light and Dark, overcoming the logic of our current universe. If you are right, then past Byf is vindicated once more.
It seems likely at this point. A fittingly pathetic conclusion for destiny but at least it will be over soon.

@@arryn786 god damn bro chill....
@@D4RK_FL4M3 .. huh? Confused as to that overreaction there, idk what u are referring to🤷♂️ .
@arryn786 you just kinda came outa nowhere with that one
Love the way you've been reading dialogue in loretexts, Byf. There's a lot more emotion and intent behind it, which really fits the characters saying it.
Appreciate it! I'm trying where possible. Some days I'm just tired, other days I'm able to give it my all.
It helps when it's a great writer behind the lore. The Unveiling stuff is Seth Dickinson if I'm not mistaken. His stuff is phenomenal (See Books of Sorrow). It's really easy to get sucked into performance with VO when the dialogue is great.
To this day he's written one of my favourite lines (Wrath! Behold the wrath of Oryx coiled for 10,000 years!)
@MynameisByf i feel like there are good opportunities w AI voices these days to imitate the possible voices of each character in these lore readings, would add to the immersiveness of it
@@4newestaccoun No, I prefer Byf!
@@4newestaccoun While I'm sure Bungie wouldn't mind, Sony owns them now, so they would most likely respond with legal action. As the voices themselves are still subject to copyright, and that's stated on every publicly available AI voice generator.
@No-wx1ex i mean voices that dont exist. Like the winnower or gardener lore entry for example, imaginative renditions for story effect
I am here once again to express my appreciation for the beautiful Byf.
Byf has the most daddy voice
He really brought The Gardner and The Winnower to life in the lore here. Makes me wonder, if the Gardner is proven to be real. Will we need to content with her brother (I’ve always envisioned the two as siblings)?
A guardian using darkness for life and complexity is exactly that- a defiance of the pattern, of stagnation, of a predetermined end.
the rainbow subclass is gonna go crazy
for real bro. gonna be a fun time
Ulan-Tan to the Vanguard: “Say it. I was right”.
@@garrettviewegh9028he’s literally not correct though. His belief was, essentially, that the Darkness is a necessary symmetry to the Traveler.
However, since it used to be believed that the Darkness was a being that caused the collapse, it’s clear now that what we used to call “the Darkness” can actually be differentiated between the Darkness that is the force, and the voice in the Darkness that is the Witness. It’s also clear that when he says “the Darkness is a necessary symmetry to the Traveler”, he’s talking about the voice entity, AKA the Witness. If he meant the force, he would have said it was a symmetry to the Light, not to the Traveler.
And this idea is obviously just completely absurd and wrong given current context. The witness does not represent any sort of symmetry opposed to the Traveler. If such a symmetry exists, it’s likely with the Veil.
@@yourewrong9028 Ah. I’ll admit, maybe I missed some details in comparison. But, we was on to something. Albeit, his theory did have holes.
Coming out in June as well
If you remember from the final Parting the Veil quest, Nimbus and Osiris theorized that at one point the Traveler and the Veil and subsequently the Light and Darkness at one point, were actually one and the same, one singular power. Transcendence could be that very power.
Our guardian will use the power to combine all darkness and light powers into one subsequently being able to seperate the millions of lifeforms inside the witness! I am expecting at some point the true enemy behind the witness to come forth for us to then combine that and the traveller back into one being.
Yep. You're right. Just look to the traveler's portal. It's the same pattern that transcendence.
that would actually be huge if that is the case
I feel like the Final Shape can only be properly realized, so long as there's only one individual that is unchallenged in its interpretation of how the universe should be.
It would explain why the Darkness/Winnower is obsessed with it because it's the catalyst for and is the reward for ultimate competition, shaping reality as you think it should be.
It would also be why the Traveler/ Gardener never wished to make it for itself, or even directly speaks for that matter, because it desires complex life with their own perspectives, generating complexity. The Final Shape (as it was, at least) is incompatible with its goals at a fundamental level, and so doesn't desire perfection.
In many ways, then, Transcendance really is the Gardener's best argument against the Final Shape, and it seems fitting it would condone and encourage the Darkness to be used alongside Light.
And through this transcendence we shall achieve nirvana.
I think this is the best explanation for why the Traveller doesnt talk to us during the series. With one exception, its been absolutely silent, and seemingly aloof. But I like your explanation. Perhaps thats on purpose. to see what we will do
In the final shape reveal we hear someone talking to our guardian, i didnt recognize the voice but it seemed almost like a female ghost. It could be a character and i just didnt recognize them, but i honestly felt like it was the traveler speaking to us directly
@@josephcool981I would prefer the traveller to remain silent, for the reason behind its silence to be symbolic of something hence why I like this interpretation.
@gavinferguson2938 i think if it really is the traveler, then it will speak only to the guardian and no one else. Bungie mentioned something along the lines of us being given new power when the traveler chooses us as it "champion of light" and i think in a way it would be cool if on top of all of our other achievements, we also essentially become the next speaker (technically the first REAL one, since the traveler never actually spoke to any of the others).
“The First Knife” would be an EPIC raid sword drop!
The concept of Light and Dark in Destiny will always be the coolest thing in media for me
They stole it from star wars
@@MrMultiPlatform stole this, stole that. Believe it or not almost everything is made up of stolen ideas
@@MrMultiPlatform Eh, could be either or, but they made it interesting, more interesting if anything imo
I love the light being the physical aspect and the dark the mental aspect
@MrMultiPlatform star wars definitely didn't invent it
The Warlock pose always makes me think, "You fool, Thunder Cross Split attack"!
Domain expansion: infinite suffering. Cue every possible application of CC and debuffs in the game. Suspend, freeze, shatter, all three twin tailed rockets for scorch, suppress, and jolt, probably blind in there somewhere, ignite them, and just incase nuke them with a nova bomb or a needlestorm.
A JOJO REFERENCE?!
The Gardner to the Guardians (those dead in the Traveler/afterlife, and alive): “There must be meaning in our roar. A transcendence of light and dark. This, is our destiny”.
I love when I can actually watch as soon as the notification comes through
The bit in The First Knife where the winnower was angry...you ever considered voice acting? Because damn
Pink is an S-tier color and I like that we got a pink subclass instead of the red one. Change my mind
Pink forever will be the best and sassiest colour.
I do hope we get a 7th darkness subclass at some point
if we get that red gravitational subclass in the future that would be sick since d2 obviously isnt done yet
@@Fenyxclips sassiest…? Fuck that it’s simply beautiful 😂
@@jacobpinson2834Well this "subclass" isn't actually a subclass so they should give us the resonance powers of the Witness.
This. This is THE Byf lore video. This is the one. That's it.
I agree with absolutely everything here. And I've ALWAYS took a more literal approach to Unveiling. That the Gardener and the Winnower were actual beings. And hearing the Gardener's voice in the new trailer just proved for me what I've been saying for YEARS at this point.
Do we know for sure that’s the gardener? I hear it accepted here and there that it is but afaik we’re not sure
@@jafogx No, we don't know for SURE that it is the Gardener, but who else could it be?
@RespiteofChampions Literally anyone? A dead guardian, our mother, a Leviathan from fundament, etc. etc. There's a good reason to believe it's the Gardener, but there's hardly anything conclusive... It might even be the Precursor who refused to join the Witness.
I find the winnoner and the idea of the strong defeating the weak until one remains to be interesting because given evolution, the circumstance gives rise to "strength", i.e. a long neck may let you graze freely among the tallest trees, but just as easily be your undoing when ice sets in and your food retreats into the caves. By its nature, no one would ever be the "strongest" forever unless time and evolutionary pressure is halted. As long as the potential for divergence exists, so, too, is there a difference in what constitutes perfection and by extension, "strength". Beings with desires can never reach a state of perfection unless they can reach a state in which they cease to have desires. Desiring anything implies that which is could be made better and that which is imperfect. The Winnower does not speak as if he has no desires, and the Gardener certainly speaks of its own wants.
Basically, I don't believe in one "strong" final shape because strength is relative. Scissors beats paper, paper beats rock, and rock beats scissors, so which one is the strongest? In a one on one match there's always a winner, but when 3 or more players play the game, who wins?
14:28 This is like the force in Star Wars, people who purely watch the movies think using the dark side automatically make you a sith, and light a jedi. Sith is purely an ideology, just like being a jedi is. You can use either aspects of the force without ever being aligned to either ideology. It's just that being a part of either order helps you gain more knowledge. So if you're primarily light side user or even a jedi and use something like force lightning and you're still beholden to your principles, it doesn't automatically make you bad unless you want to be.
As byf said, they're simple a creature using one kind of energy.
You could say that the final shap for bomb logic is the final shape that will never come to pass... For we must always change, always adapt, and always be open for more growth.
The thing to remember is that the Gardener as an entity has existed since Destiny 1 Grimoire cards, it predates Unveiling in terms of our readings.
Transcendance sounds and looks cool but my need for symmetry wishes there was a third Darkness subclass before this fusion was introduced. Like, it low key annoys me that there are not an equal number of Light and Darkness subclasses.
...this may be the start of my villain arc.
It makes a lot more sense for it to be number 7, especially considering Bungie's fascination for the number, but... My guess is they just ran out of time.
Well, we may get a third darkenss subclass after Final Shape.
To be fair, they were being honest that they were playing their cards really close to their chest. I have no idea why, but I really do have this strange feeling number 3 may still come out...
It bothers me to no end!
I believe we get the 3rd darkness subclass in the chapter after the final shape there are some leaks that mention that.
The way byf read that “the first knife” passage was something else. I felt it in my bones.
Been seeing fanart of stuff similar to transcendence for years. Glad its finally a thing.
Transcendence perhaps lends into the core meaning of this entire game, Destiny. Guardians make their own fate and with Prismatic we now wield both Light and Dark together and thus we shape Destiny.
Destiny has always fundamentally been about time and more frontforwardly then that about the missuse of it so it would be poetic that this power once it combines all forms into one can manipulate time in some way.
@@Theemptythroneistaken The Vex are not going to like that.
Man, the Winnower got mad that it wasn't allowed to win all the time.
Loseower
He was mad the Gardener was proposing the first Nerf to his Final Shape meta
There better be an Exotic Glaive named First Knife that you get from the Raid.
Sick idea
Or an exotic sword-
Man I wish Destiny 2 had swords
Bro will never fall off
He has. Every lore video for a while has been wrong about the witness, the disciples, etc because he refuses to look into anything that isn’t directly/concretely stated in the lore books because it could be “lies”. He’s missed the point more times than I could count. Other lore creators are more accurate now imo.
@@equinoxruinouseffigy7856curious cuz I’m a returning player and haven’t caught up on a bit of the lore, what has he been wrong about?
If the witnesses final shape is the triangle, then the Traveller's is the destiny tricorn. The title screen symbol thats been with us since the very beginning.
Its rounded like a sphere, but angled like an upside down triangle. It is representative of an inversed hierarchy. Implying a reversal of the Witnesses ideals. Its white too, signifying that it is indeed the traveller's final shape and it furthermore reflects infinite complexity given its rounded nature.
I have also seen some on reddit note that previously the symbol represented the consensus between the speaker, the factions, and vanguard with the Traveller in the middle. This would line up squarely with the issue facing the Witness currently. Namely that despite pursuing the Traveller for aeons, the precursors had not achieved full consensus before being merged into one singular being. In other words, the witness has yet to achieve a concensus whilst the Traveller has.
The Travellers final shape is a fidget spinner.
Absolutely criminal byf has only got a mil subs now very few youtubers put as much work and effort into the quality of their videos... either way congrats
So glad to hear you have some spark back in your voice and be excited about destiny again.
When Byf discussed the perception of the final shape from the travellers point of view, that is something I have not heard from anyone else.
I also love how the sword logic vs bomb logic analogy also applies to a lot of the gameplay design. We've long since moved away from passive perks and subclass trees, and into complex buildcrafting and perk combos that chain into weapon rotations.
I like that idea that Nezarac was sooooo close, when you look at the designs for his Wipe VFX it literally looks like he’s trying too fuse/use light and dark all at once but since he doesn’t have true Prismatic Transcendence he can only try, but with us in the Final Shape we are able too mix them perfectly!
It’s almost like mixing Carbonated Water and Soda Syrup (weird way too go but it’s how I envision it) if you have too much of one or the other it’s just wrong, but…..when you have the perfect mixture….it hits just right! Maybe just maybe this is what the Traveler ment for the guardians/ghosts all this time too act as a “Prism” in which too focus not just the light but also the dark too finally defeat the Witness. (Reason why we didn’t have darkness from the start is obvious in a few ways)
Been hooked on the content lately, keep it up man
Content: *exists*
Byf: "MORE VIDEOS! MORE MORE MORE"
😂
chills Byf your lore videos always give me chills
This reminds of Kingdom Hearts 3. The chess game between the two kids at the beginning, about there always being the same outcome. Until light or dark chose to change what they were for. The game went on until dark had almost snuffed out all light, then the agents of light rose up, more powerful than before (transcendence). Always a good story troupe.
Legit brought this up on my podcast reacting to TFS gameplay showcase. Love when we line up in those rare times Byf!! Our final shape (us) versus the witness’s calcification of the universe! Ideology v ideology! The best kind of RPG ending! !!
Pretty clear to me though the designs that the veil is the winnower and the traveler is the gardener. They are made to connect to each other.
Literally agree with everything you said within closing to this video it certainly makes complete sense and i feel this has to be the answers we are all wanting thank you for all your hard work and appreciate all you do.
Game theory collab when? I wanna see 2 british people talk about how Taniks is actually Spamton G. Spamton.
Please😂
I don’t think byf would stoop that low 🤢🤢🤢 only person who makes worse theories then them is aztecross
@@tromar5758shut up, aztec makes the best theories.
Oops i put that response on the wrong comment lol
Congrats on 1 mil btw
Man watching this and thinking back to playing VoG in D1, first time fighting Atheon and seeing the message Guardians make their own fate is something else. Never would have thought id spend the next 10 years with this story and it finally coming to a head.
O mighty Byf, Oracle, Seer, Keeper of Knowledge, Kell of Logs. I had a crazy thought about Cayde in Final Shape and thought the Traveller has "resurrected" him as its new Speaker, acting as an intermediary with us. Or am I just medicating too much.
Final shape drip color pallet looks like it’s gonna be immaculate, you already know the shaders are about to go mf CRAZY.
Love it. I think we’ve known the gardener/traveler’s “final shape” all along. From d1 we know that in opposition to the sword logic (which has really been evolved/retconned and co-opted from the hive’s philosophy to that of the Witness) that the traveler bets that when given control over physics (read: paracausality as a combined fundamental force as theorized by Osiris in the Veil missions) that its chosen will create a gentle place ringed in spears. The gardener’s chosen will use the extra power it and the winnower created when they joined the game (paracausality) to protect a place of life and complexity, even as the philosophy of the winnower exists in the universe in the form of the Witness also trying to master the full spectrum of paracausality to instead end/finalize reality. Transcendence and the ability to use light and dark to become “the light of hope” aligns perfectly with the original “bet” of the traveler from d1, and it’s really kind of a beautiful full circle moment. I think they just might pull off an incredible narrative conclusion to this 10 year epic, it seems like they’re definitely going to nail it from a gameplay perspective. Exciting times for sure, I’m excited to listen to you and the lore community as it unfolds.
I love the part around16:00 but especially at like 16:35 when you make the perfect call back to Vog with the "make our own fate" line
Yesssss this is exactly what came to mind seeing the Prismatic subclass, especially within the traveller. We are going to become some aspect of the Final Shape, or an answer to it. What I'm really excited about seeing though is if that surprises the Witness at all, or if we're somehow part of their plan as well. I have a running theory that the Witness' goal is to become the Winnower's Final Shape, and we'll be the Gardener's, and it's possible there's either a precursor or some other kind of being inside the Traveller that's going to be making us their champion. Once we win, because of course we will, it might happen to herald some new form of Golden Age.
This video rocked. Well done Byf. I always thought the witness’ phrase “you have no purpose” was interesting. Makes even more sense now.
I think at the end of the campaign, the witness will end up telling us we are the final shape and it will be our task to shape “destinys” universe as we see fit in the next expansion or destiny 3.
great video! thanks for this!
This is the transcendence video I’ve been waiting for
Maybe the real finals shape was the friends we met along the way (quite literally).
No seriously, this is actually likely to be how the light and darkness saga ends, and it makes sense with the lore. The traveler is literally said to be complexity personified as it's a sphere. The traveler's bomb logic is stated to be all acting as one, individual, independent and likely unknown to one another components triggering a mutually beneficial effect for all.
Given the darkness runs on emotions, it's entirely possible for the red subclass to be The Power of Friendship as an element.
When I think of light vs. dark or complexity vs. perfection (which seems to be what Destiny speaks of), an alternate version of this conflict in the real world that is much more ancient is words vs. silence, or female vs. male. I don't play Destiny anymore, but I find its greater themes in the story line to be incredibly deep and fascinating. Your videos are a story by themselves, Byf. Keep up the great work. ❤️
so how im thinking of it. this always bring me back to the statues. the darkness statues. a woman covered by a "veil" hiding the truth. i think the womans voice is the gardener but the gardener is actually inside the traveller. Brings back to what the witness said during the invention of the portal
I have finally finished the chronological playlist!!!
Great thoughts and videos. There’s a lot to think about in this.
Bomb logic and transcendence was what I was thinking since you had been speaking of Sword Logic
Love seeing Byf's Big Bonk Build. Amuses me to no end.
And great video, man. I've been thinking back to Unveiling a lot since Into the Light dropped, and we heard that voice in the cutscene. I thought it was a distorted Ikora Rey, at first. Now, I'm not so sure. I reckon they're gonna bring back in the woman with the veiled face as the Gardener, or some cosmic force above the Traveler.
Guardians make their own fate. And I don't think that's gonna stop because of the Witness. I do believe the Traveler's conception of the final shape to be something where power comes from complexity, not simply from strength; and that protecting those who can't protect themselves is the ultimate power.
holy f**k byf, the voice acting on this one is stellar, truly
A transcription in game “ Pilgrimage: Garden of Esila, Dead Tree” mentions two gardeners. A female gardener who loses to the winnower, the gardener from the first knife group of lore, and the traveler. The traveler speaks of itself as a gardener and the last of his kind in the grimoire “ghost fragment: Mysteries”
i loved when the Traveler got up and said "This is my Final Shape" and then shaped all over the place
My favorite disciple of The Witness so far has to be Calus. He doesn’t know what the Final Shape is and he doesn’t care. He knows that whatever else is is meant to be it’s functionally the end of the universe as we know it and all he wants is to exist and experience as much of that ending as he possibly can. Almost like the Cenobites from Hellraiser, he just craves experience.
Gardeners were first mentioned in the grimoire card for the black garden but the light and darkness sagas are pretty full explained in lore cards for Lumina

Great stuff! Love the videos
Huge issue with the theroy of transcendence being the power that overcomes the Final shape. I didn't see the option to choose Well of Radiance as a super...
Our lore daddy with another great video
Prismatic might be the reason stasis and strand were put in the kinetic slots so we could use a light and a dark weapon at the same time for builds

"Yes Ulan-Tan." They said in unison.
YOOO BYF AS THE VOICE FOR THE WINNOWER WOULD BE DO FIRE
Bungie should give you a character that's voiced by you. Something fitting for you and what your channel is all about.
I totally agree with your point of view,especially since it match how the final shape was marketed and how something New will start,outside of the obvious marketing talk,it make sense to end a light and dark saga and start a New one knowing we avoided the planned end due to our difference and capacity to wield dark and light
I want to say that voice is Ikora, strained and through coms. She's said the line before: "Be brave in dark places."
thank you for addressing the Voice! I was trying to figure out who it was when watching the stream, but then immediately got distracted by everything, & forgot about it. very interesting, to say the least... 🤔
It sounded like Eido to me but I like this theory
Epic reading of unveiling! The voice in trailer could just be Ikora through a radio though - sounds similar enough to me
Ikora wouldn't encourage the Guardian to use Darkness. At least, not publicly like that. Osiris would be far more encouraging to the idea since he helped us learn Strand, but he has no way to give us Darkness, same with Ikora.
@@lordpumpkinhead265 it is ikoras voice though you can find videos comparing the voices and theyre identical, unless its the traveler or the gardener themselves using ikoras light to possess them and talk to us like our ghost has been controlled before by darkness
The cut scene that showed the history of The Witness changed how I thought about the Unveiling lore book. When the Witness' people find the Traveler buried on their planet, it put things in a whole new context. Now I consider Unveiling to be closer to folk lore of the Witness' people. A way for them to explain something for which they have a very limited understanding. Even though the Witness knows about the functionality of the Traveler and the Veil, both of those cosmic entities predate the Witness. Thus we get a vague and whimsical story about a gardener and a winnower rather than a detailed history.
Voice acting Byf 🥳 great video!
I just remembered, the flower game lore might be directly referenced by the Witness in the witch queen ending cutscene!
"Enough. Enough death. Enough life. You have no pieces left to place. The GAME is over"
Not sure what this entails, but it's an interesting connection I realized. Perhaps this is what truly proves that the winnower and gardener are real? I mean, the identity of the character voiced in TFS trailer is debatable, but I think this is what the gardener is, and the Witness, the Winnower.
This is going to be a big one! I have so many questions I hope get answered 😊
Thank you Byf for making these for us
The gardener be like your little siblings in games, "Bruh I keep losing, change the rules!"
I would love for them to add a warlock to the tower and it's just byf telling lore while a group of kids sit around him.
It'll be like when Meteion fight goes 2nd phase, and With Hearts Aligned starts playing.
"It is the Final Shape!"
"Yes. Because I am The Final Shape!"
Then you show every NPC in a praying position as raid team fights final stand.
Pretty interesting to be dual-wielding two different Darkness subclasses.
I'll tell you what, destiny 2 always expanding my vocabulary!
I think that mysterious voice may be The Traveler, though we won’t know for sure until we actually encounter whatever is speaking.
I’m pretty sure that the Traveler IS the Gardener. The Witness isn’t the Winnower, at least not yet. I think the Witness’s goal is essentially to become the Winnower; able to shape “the garden” and bring about the final pattern.
Every time something with their idea of the Final Shape arrived, we would always play a part in their end, we are proving the Gardener's point, we are providing a way beyond the end of all things. A way past the Final Shape. This is why the Traveler came to be, so the Gardener could gift something the power to fight back the Final Shape.
I thought that was just Ikora's voice, and she's talking to us from outside the portal so it sounds modulated. I'd be shocked if they gave the Traveler/Gardener a speaking character at this point.
That voice is one of 3 things from my viewpoint. Due to it's robotic nature, it is either an unknown Exo, a Ghost, or one of the lost Ishtar copies sent into the Vex network.
Personally I feel it's voice and cadence sound like a less raspy version of Lakshmi-2.
Would be nice to get prismatic and unlock our final darkness subclass through it via fragment unlocks slowly over time. I still think Resonance should be the 3rd darkness subclass.
Pre watching this video; I feel like the traveler wants light and dark to coexist in the same space, to achieve perfect balance. Due to what we’ve discovered in the archive missions on neomuna, and the addition of prismatic I feel this is what the Traveler wants, and in trusted hands, I.e. Not the Witness because they want everything to be in their ideal image.
HONEY WAKE UP! MNIB dropped a fresh lore vid! 🧡
The destiny app icon looks so good now
Love the story and the lore
The combination and usage of both light and dark go beyond what’s detailed in unveiling, as the speakers only speak from the usage of their own respective powers to shape the universe. There very well may be a final shape for light as there is for dark but with the combination of them both into a single being or species, you subvert both of them. You essentially become both the Gardner and winnower in one and are able to dictate the flow of the universe forever with both growth and death as you see fit.
@13:00 the way she says guardian it sounds like Ikora's voice actress but distorted a bit, perhaps the voice is similar to when Riven takes on voices, using Ikora's to guide us.
I feel like there is a reason why transcendence will only give us a new grenade(bomb logic), it is because the Gardener is blessing us to achieve that, maybe once the Winnower does that too we will unlock a new mele(sword logic).
I have the theory that the Witness' Final Shape is that of a dimensionless being. An entity of no dimension is its universe entirely. No sorrow. No pain. No life. No death. Simply existence.
Light 3
Dark 2
Light & Dark 1
We been counting down
The Gardener was mentioned in D1 lore about the black garden.
Byf can you talk about possibly seeing the gardener or the winnoner in the final shape? I would like to see your take on that
The fact the Witness wants something entirely different from the version the Winnower explains, almost proves they're not one and the same.
Great video
I believe that the Traveler has an envoy, a speaker of sorts and that is the voice you hear in that clip.
Sounds like ikora to me, you would think the traveler would sound more unique
