Civil war? (Destiny)

When you first land on Mars, you cross an area called Rubicon. I mean, c'mon now. It's the point of no return, surely, but also an act of insurrection.

Also, one human's Light is another alien's Darkness. It's mostly a matter of amoral perspective, not actual absolutes. Decent propaganda, though.

Huge red flag went up for me during my talk with the Queen. Sympathy for your Traveller? A distinction about not being forged in Light? With the added perspective that the Awoken are supposed to have, why would humanity being extinguished by the Darkness not bother them?

And why would some of them continue to help fight back against it?

I keep thinking about the Light in reference to Sol, since stars are responsible for all life as we know. The Darkness is the void, which as far as we know is absent of life. The Awoken are at the edge of this, and seem to have a Yin Ying relationship to it. Like I said earlier, one man's light is another man's darkness, but what if they're more two sides of each coin?

Also, if that's true, why fight for the Traveler? Well, I happen to live in this system thank you very much.
