  • Destiny 2's Lore and Story from the Season of the Witch reveals a disturbing detail. Immaru states that our ghosts can hear the Traveler. As the Witness resides within its Pale Heart, Immaru states that he senses the Traveler's terror and desperation and that he can even hear it scream. But what else can the ghosts hear from the Traveller, and how deep does this connection go?

      as somebody in a DnD campaign where the party is basically high fantasy guardians minus the Ghosts and we can actually speak to our Traveler (they're a big dragon of light), having to literally feel the screams of that dragon rattle and practically bring the party to their knees is 100% as terrifying as it sounds. i can only imagine what your Ghosts are going through just listening to Byf.

      Its also interesting to me to think that while this is happening, your ghost is like “Well the traveler has been silent for so long I lost track” but also the traveler is screaming, so I think the ghost is not telling us purposefully so as not to worry our guardians.

    I don't think that the Traveler is literally screaming for help. I think the traveler is in anguish because of what is going on and then ghosts can sense it. Our ghost probably didn't bother to tell us that the Traveler is in trouble because we already know. Also I don't believe the traveler was capable of emotion until it was connected to the veil.

      It becomes even worse if you think that the pale heart zone is the mindscape of the Traveler. The witness is forcibly rearranging inside the travelers head turning it's dreams of places it has seen into nightmarish geometrical machinery. Something is inside the travelers head tearing it's mind appart from the inside to reduce it into a puppet that will be forced to destroy the universe.

    Immaru is not lying. In the final cutscene of the Lightfall campaign, you can hear what sounds like the Traveler screaming in pain right when the Witness draws the triangular portal on it.

    I'm thinking that Immaru is just able to recognize what the traveler is trying to say in a way that other ghosts can't, as he said, "I know death when I feel it, and this doesn't feel like death". Our ghost has referred to the traveler as being 'dead', but I think that they just don't know how to describe or recognize what the traveler is telling it. Since we know that the hive have a much more complicated relationship with death than humans, it wouldn't be unreasonable to say that a hive ghost would be able to differentiate death and not quite death more clearly than a 'normal' ghost.

    There is something in the constellations book that seems to point to the traveller speaking to multiple people
    Once the speaker builds his mask, his ‘amplifier’, the traveller says “I have cried out unheard for so long that my voice is raw”, suggesting it’s just kind of been shouting until something hears it again
    Perhaps our ghosts hearing the traveller is a recent development? Red war era, when the traveller woke up again. Perhaps the time our Ghost references is the time of the ghosts’ creation, the travellers final moments before it fell into dormancy, and the speaker was the first thing in the dark age to finally connect to it again. Then when we get the light back in the red war, our ghost can actually sense it fully again. Though it could just as easily be talking about 20 minutes ago when we fell off a building

  • @NMA247

    Personally I think the reason that Immaru is hearing the traveler scream for help is the traveler knows Savathun can help it. While I do think all the ghosts can hear the traveler controls when and how strong the connection is. Like the dream about going to the edz shard of the traveler. I think it was given to us through our ghost and it's why they know the dream too.

    I don't think ghosts can literally 'hear' the traveler but more like feel it, I'm sure Immaru is just making an analogy in that particular dialogue, an approximation easier for humans to understand. It is also very possible that Immaru was just bluffing or gaslighting us; given his admiration for Savathun he might be trying to come up with little deceptions of his own.

      - Our Ghost probably knew that Immaru was right, and didn't see a point in arguing
      - The Witness has always been able to do this, dating as far back as the final mission in Shadowkeep. I don't know exactly why, but I'd imagine it has something to do with The Witness being the literal embodiment of the Darkness itself, whereas a Ghost is a more fragile, less complex (at least when compared to The Witness) being of the Light

      Immaru also has a vested interest in stopping the Witness. He mentions in another end-of-mission statement that the Witness is trying to end the "game" of the universe early, by turning it off before it's over. The Hive doesn't want that either, as their Sword Logic basically says the winner at the end of the universe is who or whatever beats everything else conventionally, rather than flipping up the board like the Witness is trying to do.

    Is... Is no one noticing Immaru's tone shift? I think this explains why he has started to stray from Savathun's plan. His "hard sell". Why he is so worried "what the hell Eris is thinking?"
    He's scared. And now we know why.
    He's trying to find comfort in both our strength, and by asserting his superiority over it by claiming all of this is within his guardian's plans. But we only seek comfort when we doubt. That's why us grabbing him shook him so much. He was reaching for control and we took it away. I think this is why he said our ghost was "sparing us the details". Not that they were hiding something from us. He actually SOFTENED the potential betrayal of our ghost. He... he almost seemed to care more that we KNOW what he's feeling from the traveller. Also, he can probably still sense it, and some other ghosts can, because he can directly influence help getting to the traveler. Same as our ghost.

    My theory about the traveler is that it’s FIRST creation was the witness (the civilization) and continued to lavish them with gifts and until they wanted purpose and forced the traveler to flee. The traveler has been creating civilization after civilization which could combat the witness. Which is why it left each civilization as they couldn’t progress far enough to reach the same level as the witness. Though there’s probably lots of evidence completely debunking this I think it’d be cool. I also think that all these different species across the universe are the same species as the witness but evolved under different circumstances because I think its interesting that the witness’ civilization has VERY similar biology to ours in terms of anatomy.

    A lot of people, Byt included, seems to have forgotten the fact that Brother Vance has exuded a lot of similarities to the Speaker’s way of understanding the Traveler. Back in season of Arrivals we got a few things from his POV which revealed that he can supposedly hear a voice or ‘feeling’ implied to be The Traveler.
    Same as with The Speaker.
    Blindness and having faith in the big space ball is key.
    And those with blind faith are most receptive to it’s pleas.

    I don’t think Immaru is lying, just on the fact he has nothing to gain by doing so. He is just as much affected as we could be. If anything we have gotten more broad POV from 2 hive ghost than we have regular ones. For all we know the exact cosmic horror he described is what it is going on. Makes things that much more urgent now too

    I’d like to think that certain ghosts have a deeper connection with the traveler than others. I’d also like to think that the traveler also has a select few “champions”, so to speak, that it connects with more often.
    Immaru might be one of these ghosts, given how he was the first ghost of a Hive, and the ghost of a former Hive god. Crow and our guardian could also be individuals who are deeply connected to the traveler, given how in the Hawkmoon quest we were guided by a hawk made of light, and Crow was granted visions by the traveler. The last one I can think of is the former Speaker of the last city, who was supposed to speak on behalf of the traveler, possibly having a close connection with it.
    Some ghosts might only be able to sense the Traveler’s presence, while others might have a much deeper connection. So I don’t think Immaru is lying when he says our ghost is being quiet, he could simply be talking about his connection, not knowing that our ghost has the same connection with the traveler he does. He might be saying that because the Guardian is extremely powerful in lore, that he assumed that our ghost had a similar connection to Immaru.

    Either Immaru is seeking to drive a wedge, (between us and our Ghost) or Immaru is building himself a defence of a Unique connection to the Traveller, and thus indispensability: You can't kill me, you NEED me. Immaru fears us more then he lets on.

    i feel like another relevant piece of dialogue is immaru's admission that he always felt he never fit in with humanity, or other ghosts for that matter. as always this could be immaru lying to garner sympathy, or it could be a hint to him having a deeper relationship with the traveler than other ghosts. after all, he was the first ever lucent hive ghost.
    either the traveler picked immaru especially for this role which gave him some closer insight to its disposition, or he was made specifically for savathun since the beginning, and the traveler has been keeping him close incase the chance to raise her ever arose.
    immaru's situation is such an interesting one, and im very glad this season is expanding on him as more than just a few patrol voicelines.

    All of this talk of the ghosts' connection to the Traveler makes me think of the lore tab of the ghost shell from Vow of the Disciple where some unknown(?) voice speaks to Rhulk through the ghost before destroying it (at least thats what I remember, its been a while).
    That's the only time I can think of where the assumedly the Traveler spoke not through quotes.

  • @williamboggs2128
    @williamboggs2128 Рік тому

    This is unrelated, but I just realized a duality between the Traveler/Ghosts and the Witness. The Witness is all about many gaining power in becoming one. The Traveler is all about giving power through becoming many through the ghosts.
    Don't know if anyone has already said this, but this is the realization I came to through this video. Just thinking out loud.

  • @Soulverine
    @Soulverine Рік тому

    Looking back at the prophecy wall in the Vow of the Disciple raid, we know the Witness is "drinking the Light," whatever that means. But if you think of someone being bit by a vampire, it makes sense. There's perhaps a bit of shock and surprise wile also terror that a vital, vulnerable body part is being directly attacked. While being bitten, the human isn't dead yet but it may just be a matter of time.

  • @Razzy-sr4oq
    @Razzy-sr4oq Рік тому

    Iirc, the Speaker was told by the Traveler to go and find Saint-14 early on. Not like a specific 'go here, get that specific dude' but a wordless impression that there's a powerful Guardian to be resurrected in the area Saint-14 was. So that's an example of the Traveler at least communicating in a pretty direct way.

  • @roxlyde8163

    The domain of the light is the domain of the physical; the Traveller has been speaking to all of us this whole time, in everything related to it. Visions, impressions, quoting living beings, it’s weapons, it’s behavior; that’s how it speaks. I think that is what speaker meant by speaking For the traveler: interpreting its sign language

    "What does it take to strike to fear into a God? What does it take to make it scream?"
    That is probably the hardest line I have ever heard from you. The idea that the Traveler has been screaming in pain and fear for close to six months already, and will have to for a further six months, is honestly morbid as hell.

    Let’s not forget the traveler spoke in clear words to Rhulk when he was messing with the hive ghosts. It spoke in all caps, clear words to Rhulk, denying it access to the light. Rhulk even was taken aback, calling it “Adversary.” The traveler speaks when it needs to, so I could definitely see it screaming for help

    You brought up the shard in the EDZ but one thing I think is often forgotten, technically that shard is still our source of Light. Our ghost isn't really connected to the Traveler proper at all. (Yes, I know the shard is part of the Traveler ergo connected to it, to the Traveler)

    I wonder if its less-so hearing and more or less a divine pull or feeling. The traveler has always been shown to communicate through abstract imagery, which makes me think its almost the same for ghosts. What if it's almost like a "hive mind" (no pun intended) with a certain disconnect. The traveler probably doesnt have full control, but is omniepresent within each ghost to some degree.

    Okay, so in network terms, the Traveler primarily uses the Broadcast IP all the damn time. It then has the Ghosts of all Guardians on something similar to a UDP port connection, so they can get most of the details when needed, but they can lose some packets, thus missing some info the farther away they are (or how "dead" the Traveler is). Finally, it rarely has a TCP connection to anyone, but when it does, it's for urgent reasons and for a very short time.
    It's pretty easy to block persistent Broadcast communication on the network to a client device, so it's less noisy; I guess our Ghost could be on some shiz like that. However, they aren't getting much else back via UDP at this time either... perhaps. But Lucent Ghosts aren't filtering that out, and they're most likely better to interpret the Traveler's messages and screams because of all things Hive they're involved with. Or Immaru is feeding us subterfuge, as one associated with Savathûn were to do for deception and dividing trust or loyalties.

  • @ASpaceOstrich

    The Traveler makes a point of trying to never speak to people. Because it believes that exerting that influence directly would defeat its purpose. It also seems that the Traveler is willing to bend that rule by using other peoples words, and thats why the Traveler spoke to us by assembling lines from other characters. It also gives visions, though it might not actually be doing that on purpose, and if I recall correctly in a moment of desperation it spoke directly to Clovis, though only to tell him he had horribly misinterpreted something.

    5:14 what if all ghosts can feel/hear the traveler, but because immaru is hive, he has a better understanding of what the traveler is saying now that it’s “dying” or tortured, a feeling that the normal ghost maybe don’t understand and therefore understand as nothing/silence.

    Savathun’s ghost may have a different connection and point of view, due to being a HIVE GHOST. Completely different from ours, as stated in Witch Queen. Also, Savathun probably confided in him too, being a former disciple, who knows what info she’s told him. However, I trust this bit of info.
