Theory about the Speaker SPOILERS (Destiny)

Yeah, I could see this working. If the Speaker were just another Guardian... why hold him captive instead of killing him like the hundreds or thousands of others the Red Legion killed?

Because Ghaul had been studying the Traveler for years, and knew of the Speaker.

The Speaker was a priest, essentially, and judging from Ghost's dialogue, clearly not the only one (probably just the most prominent, since he was around before the walls were built).

He's a Warlock like any other (he even has/had a normal Ghost), but one who is very devout in his philosophy. His faith led Ghaul to confuse him as someone who literally communes with the Traveler, and so he captured him.

Anything more is reading a bit too much into things, I feel.
