6+ Hours of Destiny Lore - Beyond Light (Part 1)

When the Exo Stranger said she didn’t have time to explain I now get what she means - that said if you have time to listen I hope you enjoy part 1 of this Destiny Lore reading, set to Destiny music, covering (nearly) everything introduced in Beyond Light, and where appropriate from before it.

All images are from Press Kits, in-game screenshots and concept art created for Bungie, music comes from Destiny Soundtracks and from tracks no longer available in-game archived by Last City Radio and Destiny Music Archive, all game footage is from Destiny Lore Vault unless otherwise stated, and credit goes to Ishtar Collective and the Destiny Lore Subreddit’s Compendium for help with structuring this episode.
