Spoiler Alert: Major Revelations Ahead

Before we delve into the intriguing lore surrounding The Witness, please note that this article contains substantial spoilers from the recent Destiny 2 cutscene and the conclusion of the Lightfall campaign. If you prefer to experience the narrative twists firsthand, we recommend completing the Week 5 portion of the “Into the Depths” questline and the Lightfall expansion before reading further.

The Lore of the Witness: Origins and Motives

The Witness, a character shrouded in mystery since its introduction, has finally been explained​. The latest cutscene in Destiny 2’s Season of the Deep unveils this enigmatic figure’s origins and purpose.
The Witness represents an ancient civilization that yearned for structure and balance in the universe​​. This civilization was initially blessed by The Traveler, a being of pure Light, also known as “The Gardener.” Over time, however, they grew dissatisfied with the unfettered chaos of Light. They sought to balance this chaos with the introduction of Darkness, which they believed could be achieved by the entity known as “The Veil.”

Key Lore Points

  1. The Witness embodies an ancient civilization that merged itself into one being​​.
  2. The Traveler, a pure Light​ being, initially blessed civilization​.
  3. They sought to balance the chaos of Light with the Darkness embodied by The Veil​​.

The Witness's Quest: The Final Shape

The Witness and its people believed that the perfect universe, which they called “The Final Shape,” could be created by taming The Light with The Darkness​​. This concept also gives meaning to the name of Destiny 2’s next expansion, “The Final Shape.”
However, when they tried to use The Veil to tame The Traveler, the orb fled, leaving the civilization in despair. Refusing to accept defeat, the remaining members of this civilization merged into The Witness, creating an entity powerful enough to chase The Traveler across the cosmos to impose meaning on a seemingly meaningless universe​​.
