There is no way that guardians don't gently caress. Especially Exos.

Guardian-Person is literally not the same person as Previous-Human-Person, we had a whole plot line about this in Haunted involving Crow not being Uldren, which is why it would be extra funny for him to date Guardian-Not-Amanda

It seems to be the narrative that the writers have constructed over the last couple years, up to and including the time they had an argument and then sat in their rooms sniffling and sobbing while looking at the gifts they'd already picked out for each other.

If Guardian Holliday has a southern accent and serves as the ship/sparrow vendor, it's definitely Amanda with Amnesia

Amanda hasn’t completely forgiven Crow for being the reincarnation of the guy who killed Cayde, right? They’re starting to reconcile but I’m guessing this process will complete in season 20. Then she can get her mind erased and he’s the one who helps her reintegrate into the Tower afterward. It’s like poetry, it rhymes

I think the whole Savathun thing confirmed ghosts have some degree of free will so Glint would be the one to ask, since he did know who Uldren was

But in the opposite direction, don't they basically have a vibe of "this is what the Traveler wants me to do?" Although I think Fynch suggests some ghosts got roped in on the whole Hive thing through peer pressure.

But if anything, Uldren/Crow makes sense - like, it makes for a good narrative around the "you aren't your past self" stuff and seems to fit in with a lot of the "everyone coming together against the darkness" stuff. Like, I feel like you could argue it's somewhat antithetical to sword logic poo poo.

The Final Shape is the friends we made along the way.

sure okay

I'll forgive ghosts for being dumb and I'm sure a ghost somewhere at some point tried to revive a cat to no avail.

What I don't understand is why the Traveler let Hive be revived. I played the whole Witch Queen and still don't fully understand that

What I don't understand is why the Traveler let Hive be revived. I played the whole Witch Queen and still don't fully understand that

The Hive (or The Krill, as they were originally) were supposed to be chosen/uplifted by the Traveler. But the worm gods on Fundament (who The Witness sicced Rhulk on) lied to them and told them cataclysm is coming so come and embrace the deep.

Additionally, Savathun apparently has history with the Traveler, there's some codex that heavy implies Savathun was around for the first collapse. The fact she goes on to try to give the traveler shelter in her throne world seems to suggest the traveler knew her intentions. I suspect we'll have more Savathun revelations in Lightfall because a bunch of the trailers ends with Savathun's song. (And she also apparently knew of Neomuna)

It's probably a gambit on the Traveler's part - it will take whatever allies against darkness it can get, and the enemy of my enemy, is Savathun.
