My Main Hc Was That The Traveler Generally Revived New Lights With Knowledge Of A Single Common Language - Blog Posts

1 month ago

Destiny has an interesting potential for languages. Most scifi so far into the future it's assumed that a lot of languages have died out, but d2 is out here dragging back native speakers of dead languages from the grave. And languages that're fading out now would have the chance to resurface. And I just love that sm.

I've read they're like? Granted whatever the in-universe modern language is by their Ghosts so they can communicate? I want to believe they keep their original first language anyway. Idk about lore for that but idgaf.

New lights finding someone that speaks their mother tongue for the first time and freaking out. Proceeding to be dragged by the arm off to meet the other people who do. I don't really want to imagine the Last City having sections where any language (other than whatever "modern" D2 language is) is more prevalent since irl that's usually the byproduct of racism/xenophobia. I just want it to be like- history & ancestry may be lost to time but here's this thing we share. Some fragment that's left. I can understand you, and isn't that beautiful? Aarghhh

I'm kinda bullshitting here but it's still food for thought.
