༺✞𝐸𝑙𝑜ℎ𝑖𝑚✞༻

A long journey..filled with some of the best and admittedly the worst moments of my life. I’ve met friends, clans, even partners through this experience. I’ve killed so many enemies and guardians alike.

Dominated the crucible and gambit, flawless in trials on more than one occasion. Some of the best raid clears i could think.

Tonight was the peak of that; GODSBANE. Fitting for a last title to cap off a journey that has persisted all of my adult life. From my very first vault of glass in d1 as a 359 light hunter barely knowing what to do…to 4 manning a 390 wrath of the machine run with no mics, aksis challenge with some of the best players in the community.

Now toppling the last raid gauntlet of d2.

I’ll miss you Destiny. You weren’t perfect, but you’re sure as shit my favorite.

Thank you so much @tauruscookie !!!
