- **Philosophy:** Rejects all dogma, accepts only his own truth - offers rather than forces

- **Identity Resolution:** Mostly internal struggle, some external judgment from other Guardians
- **Traveler Communion:** Occurred before Witness crisis, parental acceptance despite Darkness usage
- **External Reactions:** Found Light-only users "annoying and not understanding the Nine's message"
- **New Light Reactions:** Some New Lights show fear/confusion, but he proves worthiness through actions
- **Traveler Communion:** Game bug turned lore - Traveler reached out "like a parent to a child" with acceptance/love, occurred before Witness crisis
- **Vex Relationship:** Uneasy with rogue Vex mind but Light protects from simulation/temporal manipulation
- **Vex Integration:** Inherited Spartan-1's burned-in Vex circuitry, can interact with Vex tech uniquely
- **Ghost Realization:** First Hive Lightbearer encounter taught him the horror of Ghost fragility when he watched one crushed by hand

### Timeline & Context
- **Resurrection:** Shortly before Savathûn's return as Lightbearer
- **Knights Foundation:** Response to lack of New Light educational framework
- **Witness Crisis:** Major threat where Witness nearly consumed Traveler's Light for universal "perfection"
- **Witness Crisis:** Major threat where Witness nearly consumed Traveler's Light for universal "perfection" - freezing reality into a single moment
- **Nine's Prophecy:** Dungeon/raid teaching that power source (Light/Dark) doesn't matter
- **File Organization:** Reference materials moved from `other/` to `.reference/` directory (readonly)
### Hive Philosophy Rejection
- Fulcrum's Oath specifically rejects Xivu Arath's war, Oryx's logic, Savathûn's cunning
- Represents philosophical evolution from Spartan-1's pure survival to Spartan-2's active choice
## Key Philosophical Elements
- **Anti-Dogma Stance:** Rejects being told to "just accept it" - accepts only what he believes true
- **Nine's Teaching Integration:** "It doesn't matter what you use" (Light vs Dark) from Prophecy dungeon/raid
- **Power Selection Principles:**
- Strand = flow, connection, working with forces
- Stasis = control, taking, imposing will (rejected on principle)
- **Offering vs. Forcing:** Core distinction from Hive philosophy - offers truth rather than forces it
- **Personal Truth Framework:** Only accepts his own truth, but offers it freely to others
## Character Development Moments
- **New Light Naivety:** Didn't understand what was wrong with Hive having Light initially
- **Ghost Crushing Horror:** Watched Hive Lightbearer Ghost crushed by single hand, realized fragility
- **Identity Crisis Resolution:** Traveler's parental acceptance despite Darkness usage (from game bug)
- **Educational Mission Origin:** Fireteam noticed struggling New Lights, lack of proper framework
## Questions for Development
- What specific records/logs did Spartan-2 find in the abandoned lab?
- Details about the Witness and the Light/Dark saga conclusion
