Those of the Light

The Forgotten One

There are tales of humans from long ago, humans with unimaginable power and the ability to wield it at the very tips of their fingers.

Some say that they're just stories made up to give hope to children that one day humanity can overcome the fallen, the vex, the hive, and the cabal; and once again live on earth as the guardians live in the tower.

No one knows the exact origin of these tales, but these souls are the ones the ghosts have been dispatched to find.

There is, however, a lingering doubt that the ghosts will ever find humans of such strength.

Yet, despite these doubts... some still believe in the tales with all their heart.

Some say the speaker himself believes the tales to be true, saying the traveler has predicted the coming of a group of new guardians with unimaginable strength.

Others pass them off as hopeless stories for children...

Perhaps the tales hold some truth after all... because as time goes on, strange guardians are appearing one by one.

With unique talents and abilities it's possible that these guardians are the legendary few, but those aren't the ones this story begins with...

The one we begin with is the one who was seemingly forgotten, the first of their kind.

We now start with the forgotten soul, one lost so deep within the depth of the Earth's crust that they were thought to have been abandoned.

One guardian had been lost on earth, him having been in search of a special material called helium filaments, a material that is used to add to the durability of armor and to better weapons as well.

They weren't hard to find if you knew where to look, but the blades of Crota were as merciless as ever and had ambushed him in a group.

Perhaps it had been fate that yet another guardian had been awoken that very time he had taken his patrol trip to earth.

Perhaps it had been the traveler's will that she had appeared that very day.

The woman who changed everything...

Chapter one, the forgotten one.

The Ghost hovered about scanning one thing after another, it was searching for something in this dark pit, the ghost could feel the energy radiating from the pit. A wave of energy rushed over the land, signaling a familiar fate. "Another has Fallen..." the ghost said as it scanned across the area of ornate rock in front of it. "Interesting... this is something new... is this the insignia that the traveler was telling me to search for?" the ghost asked no one in particular. It scanned over the carved insignia on the stone and sighed.

"Not it... this is a different one... I believe the one the traveler told me to search for was... a swirling leaf..." the ghost said as it hovered around the rock analyzing the area. "This is a flame. Hm..." the ghost muttered as it levitated the rock to reveal yet another passageway down in the pit. The ghost proceeded down the path, feeling the energy of the soul getting stronger and stronger the closer it got to it. The ghost came to a figure of a woman shrouded in a blue fog, the woman herself was see through, signaling to the ghost that she was one of the few, a destined guardian.

The ghost proceeded to perform the resurrection process. Starting from the feet a skeleton began to form from seemingly nothing swiftly nerves, blood vessels, and skin began to wrap around the foot bones and continued up the glowing skeleton to form organs and allow the veins, vessels, muscles, and skin to wrap around the organs and form a feminine form. Soft pink lips frowned in confusion as boots, clothes, and armor covered her body from head to toe afterwards. White eyes locked onto the ghost before a shade of black glass fell over her eyes and a helmet materialized over the rest of her head, encasing her long ebony blue locks in her armor as well.
