Focused Fire Chat, a Destiny Lore Podcast

Join Blue and Green this week as they dive into the lore book, The Forsaken Prince - looking at the story of Uldren Sov's past and the events directly leading up to the Forsaken campaign. Blue did mention an incorrect translation of the timeline during this episode in regards to the timing of the events for the Scorn - apologies for any confusion there. The Barons & Scorn were around prior to Fikrul and Uldren meeting; it was the introduction of corrupted Ether that specifically happened after their encounter.

This week, Blue and Beard sit down to discuss the legend and legacy of  the figure of Dredgen Yor within the Destiny universe. The release of information that came with the arrival of the Drifter and the opening of Gambit to the players has brought this conversation back into the forefront of our minds - and while we still have many questions, there are a few answers that we discuss here. Note that we aren't discussing (yet) the information which is expected to become available in the upcoming exotic quest, The Draw - though it is strongly connected to this topic.

This week, we get to sit down and chat with a great friend of the show, PurpleChimera - archivist from the amazing Ishtar Collective team - about the presence of biases and how we should treat them. The team dives into a few strong examples of different styles of the literary tool found within the story of Destiny, as well as pulling back for a chance to look at some of the applications of the concepts discussed in reality. Be sure to let us know in the comments below your thoughts on this week's look at the story behind the stories that we normally discuss!

This week, we take a closer look at the Black Armory and the history that is available to us through the words of its initial founder, Henriette Meyrin, as captured within the Black Armory Papers. These papers present a new and  unique point of view of not just the Collapse and newly Risen, but a perspective that we haven't encountered much of so far in the story of Destiny - a view of these events from the eyes of a mortal Human, colored by intimate knowledge of what had been lost in the Collapse. Yet all ends, as painful as they are sometimes, are also beginnings - and the final chapter of Henriette's life presents to us an amazing introduction to the figure of Ada-1.

This week, we take a look at the group who tried to establish a way to defend humanity without the help of the Traveler. These individuals, who formed a group known in game as the Black Armory, had a problem with letting the means to defend themselves reside in the hands of something as alien and unknown as the Traveler. They opposed the comfortable complacency that the naive response to the arrival of the Traveler created in their eyes - and this is the start of the conversation about the information that we have so far in game.

This week, Green leads the team through the new information we have acquired about the divisive Awoken of the Reef's leader, Mara Sov. In similar fashion to the earlier episodes, this episode mostly focuses on a high level analysis of the new entries - though there are some good theories and thoughts from the team as we explore the information.
