Tell your Legends! (Destiny)

The Legend of my Warlock started before the Beta, with the inkling that the traits of a Warlock aligned with my desires to destroy the enemies of the City.

Creating a character from each class in the Beta merely confirmed that.

When Destiny launched, it was time to begin. An Exo Warlock stepped forward into familiar territory. Old Russia.

But Alliances had formed before September 9th. The Phantom Pikes, united by awesomeness, began to awaken, and as I stepped foot on to the moon, I joined together with Avateur. While I started out alone, I completed all of Destiny's post-Beta content for the first time as a pair of Guardians, and sometimes a full Fireteam.

Every mission was played on hard mode first. Always hard mode.

We welded Crota's sword and hilariously decimated the Hive.

We killed a giant Hive and blew up his marble.

We went to Venus late, late at night, just to look around in awe.

We spent entirely too much time looking for sleeping dead ghosts.

When we unlocked a planet, we would explore it first. In-depth. The first time we played most of the story missions was actually our second time visiting that location. Before we left a planet, we had exhausted all of it's content--missions, Strikes.

By the time we had reached Mars, we were level 20, and our Light was growing. There was no hesitation as we burned through the Cabal and entered the Black Garden and were massively disappointed.

Then we waited while our fellow Guardians continued building their own legends. When the time was right, we entered the Vault of Glass. That experience was incredible and easily surpassed everything that came before it.

My Guardian tread the same path as all of you, but what made Destiny for me was the experiences I had with the people that fought with me on the way. Great memories. Destiny's flaws can't tarnish that experience.
