Mithrax: tells a very dark story about Saint being a monster in the Eliksni’s eyes
The Community: ay yo that skeleton Saint should be an ornament set.
my thoughts exactly
I like the part where he said "when we pursued The traveler"
Leaving out just a little bit of detail just a little bit
You know the part where they tried to genocide our entire species destroy the city and kill everything we know just a little bit of detail left out
@@theone3193 lol, yeah true
@@theone3193 "They" is a big word here. There were plenty of completely innocent men, women, and children who had no hand in that, and were told that not only was that slaughter justified, it was morally correct. If you've been keeping up, this should sound very similar to how Saint went on a rampage through the eliksni houses, and how he tore through soldier and civilian alike, whether they had anything to do with the eliksni who fought against humanity or not. And we were told that not only was was that slaughter justified, it was morally correct.
we already got something similar so idk why
“Hey! I’ve seen this one, it’s a classic.”
A certified guardian classic
What do you mean you've seen this one? It's brand new.

"There are many tales told throughout the City to frighten children. Lately those tales have stopped. Now, the children are frightened anyway." - Destiny 1, The Speaker
nice to see someone remembers the Speaker
@@Mr.Linguini Eido makes mention of him
Everyone remember the speaker even if he’s not with us
@arse stain and that's putting it nicely
@Thatoneguy you mean bill nye.
The image of Saint dragging an Eliksni into their bubble like it’s a death sentence is both cool and terrifying
Oh I didn’t even notice that lol
Especially since his bubble blinds you
Saint is literally the most badass dude in the game (except for Cayde...but he's dead...)
@@Mr.Linguini bro you really calling cayde the most badass? saint literally fought through hundreds of years of vex assaults and came out victorious (with a bit of our help, of course)
@Onizuka Ekichi the ending was the opposite of badass. Guy died like an idiot
I keep coming back to this for a single snippet.
"It _could_ die, but it would not _stay_ dead. It would shake off the rot and rise again."
That one line, more than anything else in Destiny lore, cemented just how horrifying guardians are. Eldritch entities, born of corpses, infinitely repeating a cycle of death and rebirth as they slaughter countless scores in the name of an unknowable god.
“You are a dead thing made by a dead power in the shape of the dead. All you will ever do is kill.”
@@rythemenace9956I do not know where I came from. I do not know who I am. All I know is that I must kill.
hence why Ghaul reacquainted them with the fear of death. He humbled the immortals who have forgotten that they can still die.
Its terrifying. And the death-defying is on TOP of the ability to use cosmic energies beyond that of any other being and slaughter foes by the hundreds without breaking a sweat. There are only, at most, a few million guardians, but honestly...any more, and the rest of the universe might very well be screwed
It's scary to think that not only would you be blinded in his bubble, but he also get 35% stronger
Don’t forget about the overshield
Saint: The people have to live with their monsters.
Mithras: Hold my Ether.......
Snorting*
Do you guys ever wonder if the fallen ever drink beer or whiskey or alcohol in general and if they do is it possible for them to get drunk I know this is a stupid question but I’m more or less curious for scientific reasons
@@sircrimsonwolf7492 that's not a stupid question my guy, very interesting...I doubt they would tho
@@sircrimsonwolf7492 Can they get drunk? Probably not, considering their organs may work very differently from mammals at Earth, since they're from another system, can grow back limbs in early ages and a few more stuff.
Do they drink beer? There's a chance they can, in order to befriend humanity they might try to do what other people do, thus trying to drink alcohol.
@@sircrimsonwolf7492 depends on their organs actually. Getting drunk is an effect of our organs not processing the alcohol completely, pretty sure it's the kidney that does this. Any lingering alcohol stays in the blood and gets carried to the brain. So if eliksni don't have a strong enough organ to process alcohol they can surely get drunk and be light weights. Though if their organs process better then they can hold their liquor.
"It called itself.... *The Saint* "
You can hear in mithrax's voice how ironic the name "Saint" is from the eliksnis' perspective.
Thats offensive "it" the saint identify as a "she"
@@tyger942 no gender politics and sains a guy even all the other characters say so like amanda
@@tyger942 You guys have one joke huh?
@@tyger942 No Saint identifies as a "he"
Holy shit it was a joke guy wtf
This is probably one of the best ways I have seen a different perspective in a video game. Saint is regarded as the greatest titan of all time within our ranks, but he is a literal nightmare with the Eliksni. Very refreshing to see this development.
Honestly, not gonna lie, I kinda want to see eliksni cheering for Saint if he headbutts a large vex (or a certain xenophobic exo)
@@Yamikitsune his helmet is a symbol for the boogeyman they put on the walls... Maybe a bit down the line, like a year or two.. Lol
@@huhreally5771 they didn't have to come to our system, they didn't have to invade our planet, they didn't have to massacre our species and try to commit genocide after genocide they didn't have to attack our City multiple times.
@@theone3193 "They-", "They-", "They-", as if the Fallen are a hivemind like the Hive and they're all aligned and share the same values and do the same things and all collectively kill humanity.
Do we know where each individual Eliksnki of the House of Light is from? If not, then you can't prove every individual Fallen is _actually_ Fallen and not just the Eliksni equivalent of a civilian.
@@huhreally5771 most of the fallen in house light came from other houses, many of them have killed defenseless humans, mithrax included.
Civilians??? There is barely such a thing to the fallen...warriors, killers and ruthless scavengers make up the vast majority of the fallen.
With house light being the only notable exception...yes it is they, they, they...house devils, house of kings, house of wolves, house of exiles, house dusk...none have hesitated to kill and steal on a whim.
They may not be genocidal religious zealots in the same way as the hive but their culture is still very much a militant one.
Humanity was still on the brink of extinction during the dark ages after the collapse, if it weren't for a small handful of victories like six fronts or twilight gap they would have doomed humanity to extinction.
Saint is right, they were the murderous aggressors but now that the situation is either reversed or at least a stalemate they speak as if we are the bad guys.
They could have come in peace upon reuniting with the traveler above earth, but instead they chose violence.
"Bedtime" story
Can't wait to tell this story to my children before they sleep
It’s a cautionary tale, like the boogeyman. Brush your teeth and respect your parents or THE SAINT will come for you.
i can personally confirm the "foul shell bit" from my crucible experience. DO NOT GO INTO THE FOUL SHELLS OF ENEMY TITANS no matter how punchable their dumb faces look.
But I want kill Titan
@@Ghost_Toast5000 yeah but titan want/will kill you
They just stand there... waiting for your dumb impatient ass waiting to walk in. And lets be honest, you did.
Dumb face? Say the one who wears woman’s dress and ugly mask
Wrong. They do that, I just barely enter the shell and toss a charged void grenade inside, or hit them with Necrotic Grip, and watch them melt down into vapor, in a tomb of their own making.
They REALLY need to make an ornament for helm of saint 14 with a skull-like appeance like the one shown in this cutscene.
Sweet.

Weirdest father son pep talk.
“It could die but it would not stay dead” my favourite line in this story
I get the image of some lucky Captain or hell even a Dreg getting a hit on Saint that kills him, then maybe a few hours or days pass and then the same Fallen see Saint walking to them. That would probably paralyze them with fear alone
Same
Sometimes not even days. Imagine a fallen getting a lucky shot on him. They celebrate killing the monster of their kind, only for Saint's fist to suddenly shoot back up and crush their throat.
Guardians cannot be bargained with. They cannot be reasoned with. And nothing, not even death, can stop them from achieving their goal of eliminating all enemies of humanity
@@ryankoh917 the thorn seemed to do a good job at stopping them. So did Crota, oryx, atheon, Nokris, the witness, savathuun, and the fallen prior to this. Its a Pyrrhic victory at best
@Tresdank but ultimately, they kept on bouncing back every time. The great disaster is the instance where the Vanguard fell as a military and it was then up to a few to take up the cause. But attacking the city itself? That's hitting the Hornets nest, and invoking the wrath of all it's drones at once. Only one that actually succeeded was Ghaul... which was incredible by all standards. I wish we understood the other races perception of the Cabal.
Saint-14: You cannot ask people to live alongside their monsters.
Misraaks: I'm about to end this man's whole career.
Well if anything the fallen have done way worse then Saint so not really at all
I mean they started this war and ate babies newborns and have set humanity back if anything they deserved saints wrath
100% deserved saints wrath. Twilight Gap and 6 fronts were invasions, not us going out to kill them.
@@riskrunner4532 the only house that ate children was the house of rain, which was quickly purged
@@egge6145 still the fallen isn't it? And the rain wasn't the only house that ate humans multiple other houses have ate humans tore apart families and more

Mithrax: Let me tell you something about monsters
This cutscene feels like a monologue one performs on the desk of a theatre. Props to the voice actor for doing a great job.
He really handled the feeling of hatred well, you could feel the intensity rising as the story progressed.
Makes you think of the horror stories that are of our guardian. And how the Eliksni must be a bit afraid of us also.
I wonder if the Cabal have any horror stories of the guardians?
If anyone has horror stories about us, it's the hive. We've been constantly kicking them in the teeth since d1.
@@saint.of.altrad2 I don't think so. Untill last season they were a powerful empire and the only ones to conquer The Last City
They should be scared. Are we supposed to bend over and take it when they are constantly invading us? The fallen start the wars, we finish them. We aren't the bad guys.
@@meifyoucan house of light never started any war against humanity, they saved us by preventing Eramis from getting SIVA. Also, humans will never rebuild the society like before the collapse if we will constantly fight everyone around us instead of bringing peace.
1:12 i feel the titan'ness just from this part
The storytelling department needs more love! Loving it so far
The story those latest 3 seasons is just crazy in a good way.
Wait, this isn't a bedtime story, *this is an Eliksni's bad news.*
In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of the Collapse, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment.
In his ravenous hatred he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Twilight Gap, seeking vengeance against the Fallen Kells who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Titan Vanguard, and those that tasted the bite of his shotgun named him...
Saint 14
The only thing the fear is saint
Like honestly, this cutscene and some of the lore (particularly that of the Survivor’s Epitaph) is just a tremendous representation of the horrors of war. Where one side sees a hero, the other sees a monster. Both Humanity and Eliksni have been locked in brutal conflict for centuries. Both sides have committed horrible atrocities in the name of victory, deterrence, and vengeance. No one’s hands are clean. Not Saint’s. Not Mithrax’s. Not even ours. This storyline deserves a fucking award. Not since ATLA has a story done such a good job of depicting war. Beautifully done.
(Also, I just want to bring attention to the use of black and white in that cutscene. Saint is a warrior and hero of the Light, yet to the Eliksni he was a dark, monstrous figure. He was the only black figure in the scene too, showcasing him as the monster. Even his Ward of Dawn was still white, I believe representing the Eliksni’s continued faith and reverence for the Traveler and it’s power. They still viewed the Light as sacred, even though it was being used to destroy them. I love clever use of images, colors, etc to subtly drive a narrative point)
Well to be fair he made a very good point “We did not go to Riis to attack you, you came to Earth to attack us, we protected ourselves from extinction” or something like that
Damn right. We're the natives, they're the Spanish. We're the resistance, they're the Nazi's.
To be devil's advocate, while he did strike at the fallen to prevent them attacking the Last City, he also went and slew fallen indiscriminately... (which is probably because he didn't know they existed), so even these Eliksni and their children, while mostly unarmed but definitely outgunned *and* outnumbered in the city, fear him and his ironic name.
I also like that in this story he left out just a little bit of detail whenever he said "when we pursued The traveler something came back"
Just left out a little bit of detail there like the multiple attempts at genocide the attack on our city etc etc just a little bit of detail
@@bannedmann4469 Not every Eliksni attacked the City - a lot of those whom Saint killed committed no crimes at all
@@theone3193 They never said anything about genocide, they probably would have let us go if we let go of the Traveler.
Saint is literally the Destiny’s equivalent of the DOOM Slayer.
Under the helm is another helm,
An infinite shotgun,
Infinite revives.
Infinite crayons*
I thought the same hahaha
HAHAHHAHA GUYS GET IT DOOM SLAYER REFERENCE HAHAHA GUYS OH MY GOD DOOM SLAYER
Season of Dawn: Yay! We saved Saint 14!
Season of the splicer: Oh no. We saved Saint-14...
I regret nothing. They came to the wrong planet fool!
Tbh Saint did nothing wrong and people who think he did pretty much never read the lore about the fallen those bastards have torn apart everything for a selfish desire to have the traveler all for themselves
@@riskrunner4532
But that doesn’t give him a immediate pass that he should go kill other Eliksni that wasn’t even trying to be part of the other Genocidal Houses
@@UMADBRO64
Yeaaahhh,
The mindset is very similar to what Laskshmi is doing right now.
@@UMADBRO64 sounds like you've been listening to Savathûn's Song.

I love getting to see Guardians from other species perspective, a decked out space warrior with super powers that can self rez within seconds would be hell
rip and tear until it is done
Everything they fear is you.
based-14
Really makes you think about how the Eliksni viewed us (Guardians) and you as savages, killing with little remorse or thought into it.
well whilst we've fought the Eliksni, it's NOTHING compared to what saint did. Saint basically went full genocidal crusade on them
Well... To be fair the fallen did way worse they started this shit so they kinda deserved Saints wrath
@@memo57708 and they deserved it. The amount of times they have started wars is ridiculous. 6 fronts and Twilight Gap are both examples of them trying to invade us for no reason other than to claim the Traveller.
@@meifyoucan They're straight up murder Simps.
Don’t think I’ve ever killed a fallen that wasn’t immediately hostile
Remember when people used to make fun of Destiny for having no story? How far we've come.
Some still call it bad storytelling, which I'll never understand why, perhaps they're on a high horse or something but I guess everyone's a critic
Extremely little storyline still. Destiny would have been better off as a solo campaign so it could be M rated and darker.
@@zerotodona1495 That would make the story more deeper, that's true. But I prefer it this way, as it makes it more immersive, and makes the world feel alive, like we're progressing with it rather than having an end and living out a finished story.
@@zerotodona1495
Destiny's true depth is in the lore and side story bits.
As is all the darkness.
@@zerotodona1495 sol campaign wouldt work. The beauty of destiny's story is that it is in everything. Not just in a solo campaign.
I love how Saint is drawn from the perspective of the eliksni here. He has wider shoulders, has a tail, the spikes on his armor are much bigger and longer, and his ribbons look more like dead roots and branches. He's also like double his real height. In the game, he's about as tall as everyone else, so most likely around 5 foot 8 to 5 foot 10, but here he's double the size of a dreg. Dregs are 6 foot 4, meaning he is drawn as nearly 13 feet tall. Top tier cutscene.
There are at least two sides to every story.
I'm glad we got to hear about Saint's anti-Fallen crusade from the Eliksni perspective.
Also, that image of Saint dragging an Eliksni into a Ward of Dawn like it was an execution chamber...
It sent chills down my spine.
Still the greatest lore cutscene they've ever done...
This has got to be the best of these ink blot cutscenes D2 has ever dropped. It provides an incredible insight on what guardians are like to non-humans, and saint specifically. The design of the monster saint is great too, and reinforces this, his ribbons, given as gifts by the people of the city who loved him, turned to ragged strips or a reptilian tail. Fantastic.
Can I just say, I love the art style for these different cutscenes
Words can't describe how good this cutscene is. The color contrast, the demonized figure of Saint by adding the spikes and tail, and Ward of Dawn... chefs kiss
I'm receptive to the House of the Light and consider them as friends. But the Fallen weren't just "pursuing the Great Machine", they attacked the humans without provocation. Killed and tortured many humans in their way. So, though I consider Misraaks an ally, I'm not falling to this victimization.
Saint believed in attacking the enemy before it has a chance to attack the City. He attacked then back, and then attacked again, and again, and again. Not just the men, but the woman and children.
Sure, that Kell that killed the latest exploration patrol deserved it, but a random group of fallen trying to settle down somewhere was also a target
It gives me chills every time
This gave me chills, thank you!
That was amazing. Please bungie more cutscenes like this!
Definitely the inspiration for that new Sainted Visage ornament.
No matter how great or heroic you may seem, you are always the villain in someone else’s story.
Love the style of the artwork in this!!
It’s pretty rare that I’ll get goosebumps from dialogue but man mithraxs voice gets me every time.
Best cutscene ever, great work on this
What about taken king cutscenes?
@@dazambie I enjoyed those, but this cutscene gave me the thrill and chills that no other cutscenes have ever provided in Destiny history.
Loving the storytelling in this season so far!
I love this cut scene very much. Art and story telling is on point and Mithraaks' voice actor puts a lot of emotion to his lines.
Yeah, the Reminds me of The Dark Below's trailer and Eris's voice actress bringing some life to it, and forsaken's imposter's Mara Sov with her elegant, hateful, manipulative and seductive whispering into Uldren's ears was so damn good. The Eris lines on that hive strike "Do you feel it? the Hatred as pure and potent as sunshine, soaking throgh your skin" still gives me goosebumps whenever I hear it.
I love how you can feel his surpressed anger. The audacity Saint has to claim to know what fear feels like.
Saint going from a demon in the eyes of mithrax to one of his closest allys
Bungie have sure uped their storytelling 👌
….where’s the proper cutscenes like in D1? This is shit. This is lazy. Most lore is from guns and armor. You have low standards.
@@zerotodona1495 Dude, really? First off, just let him enjoy the story without showing up to be like 'but cutscene bad' for no reason. Second off, we have been getting a ton of story stuff recently, much more than in D1. So if you really expect them to be able to animate their super high quality and expensive cutscenes for every story moment, then you don't know how this stuff works. Third, why are you even here or paying any attention to it if you think it's shit? Go play or watch something else and stop bothering us.
@@zerotodona1495 these ones are way better tbh.
@@zerotodona1495 I was talking about storytelling not the cutscene and anyway I like these cutscenes
I love the animation of Saint after this cut scene. You can tell he is visibly shaken by the story.
I love these paint cutscenes, they are so cool!
"Bedtime Story"
can't wait to have nightmares
such a dope cut scene
The worldbuilding This season has been on point well done bungie
I love this cutscene man the way it describes how terrifying lightbearers are to the fallen and yet they still face us immortality and all like imagine being a lightless being and getting dragged into ward of dawn and if that wasn't bad enough your blind because of saint 14s helmet
Saint-14 is basically the Goblin Slayer of Destiny. But seeing this and hearing of all this, it makes me feel bad for the Fallen. Because to the City, my Guardian is a hero, but to them, I'm some kind of monster.
I like how the story in game is dipping it's toes into these other's perspectives. Love this dark view.
This is such a well done piece of story. Extremely cool to look at other pointws of view on guardians.
Good job bungie
What a relaxing bedtime story!
God, splicer was such a good season.
So Saint is basically the Doom Slayer for Elliskni.
Gotta love how Bungie is actually doing story in-game now rather than in lore books, also this season's story is so far great and this cutscene is an example of that.
Moments like this are the reason I can't bring myself to kill the Eliksni anymore. Not even house salvation. I always try my best to avoid fighting them or just let them run away, because I don't want to be like the guardians in the lore who kill them without mercy.
I kill them without remorse, the remaining Housed of Eliksni are hostile and as long as they remain such they are to be fought and killed.
Right???? Like damn, I'd try to just punch them instead of shooting if I have to fight them now. Just so it feels more like knocking them out instead of killing the.
I know this is two years old, but they were only killed without mercy because they killed us without mercy…
This story of saint gives me goosebumps!
Reminds me of a saying: One person's terrorist is another person's freedom fighter.
*The only thing they fear is you*
What a sweet bedtime story.
This cutscene made me second guess our actions in Season of Dawn...
the official name for this cutscene is absolutely amazing
They call him: The doom slayer
my favourite bedtime story
This very well may be the best Destiny cut scene in the franchise.
its just the best cutscene ive every seen
Seeing saint dragging a dreg into his ward of dawn was just BM 😂
I cant wait to tell this to my kids
Absolutely love the story telling here, really would love to see some proper action-packed cinematics tho
We had that stasis powers scene with Drifter, Eris, and the Exo Stranger in Beyond Light.
This is pretty poggers
Eda-1: Finally people who get me.
^
Same guy who died from Vex btw
Till this day is the best cutscene we've had since
What a bedtime story
I need Destiny 2s story to go back to this now
Calling it a "bedtime story" is selling it short
Certified eliksni classic
This is what would happen again if Saint was stopped being so chill
Chills every time this was peak writing ❤
"It called itself... The Saint, Gregory"
Im love destiny the best game ever
Best season ever ❤
Holyyy!
Hard to believe this is Noctis
Peak Destiny 2 right here
I fall asleep to this at night.
*bedtime Story* if i were fallen i would go to sleep to this lmao
