It is left with some characters wondering: “What else could it unlock inside of us…?” I believe as time goes on, there will be more and more revealed about what Stasis truly is. Several lore books that mention Stasis’ presence is a “constant temptation” for Guardians to fully control. It’s widely believed that the Darkness wants Guardians to use the power of Stasis as means to tempt them into abandoning the Traveler, but the descriptions so far are vague as to what this greater power actually is. In Clovis Bray’s experiments on Europa prior to the events of Beyond Light, Stasis (known by Clovis Bray as “Clarity Control”) is used to “sterilize” Vex Radiolarian Fluid to a point where it can be used as a medium for Exo brains. When it comes into contact with other forms of matter in Destiny’s world, it’s stabilized or brought to a completely still state, seemingly frozen. Tying into real science concepts, Stasis may be based on the ideas of the most stable forms of matter and the temperature of Absolute Zero. The power is manipulated much like what many would perceive as ice, but Bungie writers have confirmed it’s not just ice. A gift from the Darkness by way of Elisabeth “Elsie” Bray, better known as The Exo Stranger, Stasis allows Guardians to wield ice-like energy that freezes opponents and shatters them. Guardians have already been given a taste of the other side of the coin with the power of Stasis. There should be a polar opposite to these powers in the Darkness or elsewhere and there’s a possibility that the Darkness may give us more powers besides the cold death that is Stasis.īefore Stasis was widely known, Guardians that were corrupted by the Darkness were present in the world with the most notable being Dredgen Yor, who would go on to create the weapon Thorn. However where there is light, there must be darkness.
Oddly in Destiny’s lore, the powers of Void, even though they are represented as Light, have negative connotations as a method to have “…weaponized the unknown.” Void is represented as a negation, or the Guardian that wields it as “the ultimate negator” as once quoted by Ikora Rey. Those three elements are Arc, Solar, and Void which dictate how the physical universe is bound. The Light was the ability to bend the natural elements of the physical plane to a Guardian’s will. So what could there be left to use in a world without the Light? If by chance the climactic moment of Lightfall is that we lose the Traveler, we lose the Light, and that means Guardians can’t use a majority of their powers anymore.
In Destiny’s current story arc, the ships from the Black Fleet, the “Pyramids” as they’re also known, have the ability to drain or negate the Light from the Traveler in some way. Lightfall’s cover image, revealed during a Bungie online event in 2020, has a black “Pyramid” ship from the Black Fleet on top of a white glowing circle in the background. The title, Lightfall, implies a finality of some kind with something coming to an end, and it very well may be the ability for Guardians to wield the Light. We’ll all be looting caves, opening Engrams, and Traveler knows what else by then, but something is puzzling: what happens in Destiny 2 after all that? Lightfall is the final expansion of Destiny’s War of Light and Dark saga that will arrive sometime in 2023.
