I hate to say i told you so...... (Destiny)

We know from the new grimoire that Rasputin himself attacked the traveler, to disable it and force it to create ghosts and guardians to defend the darkness. It was going to do exactly what it did with the fallen and run away, but Rasputin shot it down forcing it to fight for its life. That's why we see damage on the underside.

The question is whether he did that to save humanity, or just himself. Judging by your observations, it seems like it was just self preservation, and he only cares about humans insofar as they can protect him.

.....but i told you so

We are told the traveler made a last stand on Earth to save humanity, but all the damage to the sphere is on the bottom. If the Traveler was protecting us, wouldn't the bulk of the damage be on the upper part? It looks like WE were shooting UP at it, rather than our enemies raining DOWN on us.
