This! I immediately thought of Sjur when Crow and Mara were talking about loss. I wish she brought up Sjur

caught up with the seasonal quest and i'm just absolutely baffled that mara didn't bring up sjur in her radio message with crow. not only is it a missed opportunity but it seems like such an obvious and fitting choice? why would she not bring up her dead wife when crow is struggling with grieving someone he loved? especially since crow has his memories of his life as uldren back and presumably remembers sjur... there was even a perfect opening when mara is like "i know what it's like to lose someone you love" and crow goes "are you talking about me?" she could've then talked about losing sjur and how hard it was and how she dealt with it etc. it really did feel like they meant to bring sjur back at some point but tbh at this point i don't even think they remember she exists :(

I really wish we'd learn more about when some guardians were first rezzed. It's just always interesting to see what they experienced and where their ghost found them. It gives an inkling about who they were in their past lives without really giving any info.

Sometimes I wish it was easier to know where Guardians are from. Like I know Saint and the Guardian were in parts of Old Russia and Zavala rezzed in a ship in a lake somewhere. But is it ever said where folks like Ikora, Osiris, and Saladin are resurrected at during the Dark Ages?

Unfortunately we don't have that information for most characters. We have it for Saladin, from this idle voice line from D1:

My Ghost woke me on the battlefields of Russia much like yours did.

But it's not super common to know. It sort of makes sense, especially for Dark Ages; being rezed back then in the middle of nowhere in a post-apocalyptic world with no memories or knowledge of what happened... It would be pretty difficult to explain where it happened with any relevant details. The Cosmodrome is fairly easy to figure out, but most other places where Guardians got rezed were probably just very random ruins and other various places that are hard to recognise in the moment and hard to find later, even if the Guardian would like to return to that place.

I do like some other examples of a Guardian's first rez that we have, specifically about big characters. For example, Drifter:

He opened his eyes in the night air and took an even breath. He wasn't sure how long he'd been asleep, but his immediate instinct was to—

"Run."

He froze. The voice wasn't his.

"You have to run."

The man stood up in the evening light. He looked down at himself and saw that someone had dressed him for his own funeral. He didn't laugh, but he thought it was funny. The voice continued. "Can you hear me? Risen fight for territory in these highlands. We have to move."

Drifter seems to have been rezed in the middle of nowhere basically. His Ghost mentions highlands and then immediately after, Drifter remembers running into tall grass. There was also some sort of vehicle on the way, but outside of that, impossible to tell where that was.

Felwinter is a cool example. He got rezed in a library. This means that he was in ruins of a city which would be easier to identify as a place, but that also depends on the scale of the ruins and possibility to return. It also doesn't help that this location was then immediately bombed by warsats.

Cayde, similar to Drifter, appears to also have been rezed somewhere in the middle of nowhere. If his story is to be believed, immediately upon being rezed, he accidentally ran off a cliff. I like this one because similarly to Drifter's again, it shows just how confusing and terrifying the moment of being rezed can be.

I'd like to see something like this for more characters, even if it's not incredibly specific. But seeing a Guardian's first rez is always special. I'd give anything to see it for a character like Ikora or Osiris. We might still get some information about it in the future!

mister whispers……………

We need more Eris in the story right now.

The Queen needs me more than the City does. And I need her.
