The Vanguard just gave me Etheric Light! (Destiny)

I really hope I get some free light! I've never obtained any, and I need either a chest or gloves to get my first character to 34 and fight Skolas.

The amount of etheric light you're holding onto is insane. How is that possible?

If you go out of your way to collect as much as possible, you can earn up to 15 per week from Prison of Elders and Trials of Osiris combined. Up to 6 more every time Iron Banner rolls around, plus the occasional piece or two from nightfalls and Variks' reward packages.

I've earned about that many as well, except I spend them almost as fast as I earn them. I've got about 15 in my vault right now.
