<title>Arise... *Spec./Possible SP?* (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>70% water, and a pretty enormous percentage of that is undrinkable.  Yeah, there are processes for purification, but depending on the scale you're talking about, that can go from inconvenient to logistically impossible pretty quickly.</p>
<p>Clean water is one of the looming threats our civilization faces <em>now</em>.  There are plenty of places throughout the world that have limited or no access to it.  It's far from inconceivable that it would become scarce in the future, especially if we're supplying intra-solar colonies.  If the moons of Saturn have water, then it'd be a lot easier to extract it from there for transport to Jovian bases, or research facilities at Pluto, than to bring it all the way from Earth.</p>

</blockquote><p>On a planet with 70% of its surface covered by liquid water, water somehow becomes a precious resource? No.</p>
<p>Water is one of the most common chemical compounds in the universe - it's made of Hydrogen and Oxygen and these are both pretty much everywhere in some form or another.</p>
<p>Even in a situation where, for whatever reason, all the water on the planet is poisoned, we have a multitude of ways to purify it.</p>

<title>Possible confirmation? (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A recent concept art release shows an event occurring at Saturn:</p>
<p><img src="http://es.ign.com/pictures/games/72314/112807.jpg" alt="[image]" /></p>
<p>So now that we know that some part of the story involves a disaster/conflict at Saturn, does this mean Enceladus will become part of the story in some way, if not, the traveller itself?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is indeed an exciting prospect and the interesting patterning on the Traveller could be explained by the processing of resources that could very well have been done on Enceladus in the Destiny timeline. </p>
<p>It's likely that water is a precious resource in the future, so could there be mining and industry on that moon? A wild thought could be that some ancient artefact / being was disturbed deep within the catacombs of Enceladus like Pathways into Darkness?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nice, makes sense, I mean if the UESC Marathon can be a lump of rock orbiting Mars, why can't this be Enceladus? It certainly fits with Bungies storytelling. </p>
<p>..I really need to catch up with what's been discovered so far in regards to Destiny, is misriahsolutions the best current compendium on theories and titbits?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, you're suggesting that Enceladus is the Traveller? Even without knowing any context or significance, that sounds awesome, haha.</p>

<title>Arise... *Spec./Possible SP?*</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Arise, You <strong>Titan</strong> of the deep...<br />
Arise from your cold and ending sleep...</p>
<p>&quot;Under Mount Etna he lies,<br />
  It is slumber, it is not death;<br />
For he struggles at times to arise,<br />
And above him the lurid skies<br />
  Are hot with his fiery breath. <br />
The crags are piled on his breast,<br />
  The earth is heaped on his head;<br />
But the groans of his wild unrest,<br />
Though smothered and half suppressed,<br />
  Are heard, and he is not dead. <br />
And the nations far away<br />
  Are watching with eager eyes;<br />
They talk together and say,<br />
&quot;To-morrow, perhaps to-day,<br />
  Euceladus will arise! <br />
And the old gods, the austere<br />
  Oppressors in their strength,<br />
Stand aghast and white with fear<br />
At the ominous sounds they hear,<br />
  And tremble, and mutter, &quot;At length!&quot; <br />
Ah me! for the land that is sown<br />
  With the harvest of despair!<br />
Where the burning cinders, blown<br />
From the lips of the overthrown<br />
  Enceladus, fill the air. <br />
Where ashes are heaped in drifts<br />
  Over vineyard and field and town,<br />
Whenever he starts and lifts<br />
His head through the blackened rifts<br />
  Of the crags that keep him down. <br />
See, see! the red light shines!<br />
  'T is the glare of his awful eyes!<br />
And the storm-wind shouts through the pines<br />
Of Alps and of Apennines,<br />
  &quot;Enceladus, arise!&quot; &quot;</p>
<p><br />
Longfellow 1858</p>
