What's weird about that... (Destiny)

Well, we know the Ghost tried at least one other person before he tried you. He tried to revive a Guardian in stasis on one of the colony ships.

Taken King also plays a lot with the idea of dimensions and perceived realities, and machine consciousness. Maybe at some point during the Golden Age, anyone who's now a Guardian had scanned or uploaded their consciousness to some database? Or maybe the Traveler pulled your consciousness from a different point in time to stick in your newly materialized body.

Maybe in the Destiny universe, there is another dimension for the consciousness of dead people? We've seen frequent references to Thanatonauts who presumably enter this other realm. A ton of the flavor text on year 2 warlock gear references things like "where we were before it brought us back".
