Ad Astra: Old Light

A character-driven retelling of Destiny 1 and Destiny 2, following original Guardians through the losses, victories, bonds, and impossible choices that shaped the fate of the Sol System.

Written while listening to Destiny lore by My Name Is Byf.

---

A new Guardian rises as new dangers stir across the Sol System.

But no Guardian can stand alone against the endless dark.

Silas-7 wakes with no past, no certainty, and only a Ghost at his side. The Last City calls him a protector, but he is still learning what that means when every victory demands blood, faith, and sacrifice.

Alongside a fireteam of Guardians still finding their place in a broken universe, Silas is drawn into the wars that will define humanity's future: the Black Garden, Crota, Oryx, the Red War, the Witness, and the long struggle between Light and Darkness.

Yet as the battles grow larger, so do the fractures in his own mind. Memories of BrayTech, Rasputin, the Collapse, and a life before the Light begin to surface.

The mystery of who he was, and who he has become, has only just begun.

Per audacia ad astra.
