My piece for the amazing Ishtar Illustrated zine, showcasing our favourite lore entries from across Destiny 1 and 2.

The full zine is available here: drive.google.com/file/d/14Nl4...

#destiny2 #destiny2art #ishtarillustrated
A single page with four horizontal panels. The first panel asks "Anyone you want to remember?" and shows a bright sunny day where a little girl holds the hand of a Guardian as they walk with a crowd. The second panel asks "What will you do when we beat back the Darkness?" as Ikora, holding a paper lantern, leads a crowd under a shadowed archway toward open fields where Lord Saladin is waiting. The third panel asks "When there is peace?". Zavala is setting up emerald tassels, Shaxx stands monolithic over a swarm of children, and Ana uses Solar to light up more paper lanterns. It's sunset, and the Tower and its walls looms in the distance. The fourth panel says "Make sure you walk the row. It's getting dark". Saint-14 looks down at a lit lantern in his hands, while more lanterns float into the starlit night sky in the background.

"Grief walks with me like an old friend now."

Based on the Rise of Iron lore tab, Ghost Fragment: Mysteries 3. Lord Saladin's old friends are with him, even if he doesn't know it.
The white outline of Lord Saladin and eight wolves walks through a pine forest. The wolves walk with him like they know him. Mountains loom in the distance with the Iron Temple situated in the middle peaks. Overtop of the whole scene, the faint shadow of a large black wolf is visible with tears dripping from its face and a broken dead Ghost held gently in its mouth.

So close to 10,000! There are already actions taking place in other countries to go after a lot more than just adult content, let's get ahead of the game and protect all creative freedoms from corporate decisions.

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators.

Light forgets, Darkness remembers

Do you ever wonder who you were before?
Three versions of Destiny's Osiris stand in a brown stone archway. The toddler sits on the stone floor holding a ball, and reaching toward the teen. The teen, wearing a green jalabiya, holds a sassy angsty teen pose, leaning against an ornate table covered in a grey tablecloth with a silver tea set on top. He is shooting a glare at the adult Osiris, who is turned away from both, working on a blue tablet set on an industrial style table. The adults eyes are looking at the toddler. The archway is bordered with a blue and white background, and asphodel flowers frame the art.

Poor Lodi did not sign up for this
A four panel comic. Lodi's shadow falls over the ringing anomalous phone. His hand reaches down to pick it up. He puts it to his ear, eyes obscured by the gleam of his glasses. With a pop, he is teleported to the classic yellow Backrooms.

Piece for a clanmate as a gift to his buddy, featuring his cute kitty.

This was def not an opportunity to get a never-ending supply of cat pictures as "research" >:)
Three guardians cower in fear as Nagini the calico cat crushes a controller with her paw, eyes glowing yellow as she steps out of a cloud of purple smoke. A boss health bar appears at the bottom.

Let's sit together and listen to some nice music
A simple little character with a bird mask sits wrapped in a blue woven scarf like it's a blanket, holding a pink mug with both hands and listening calmly to some music playing from a little radio.

I have no explanation for this one, except that flaunting your stunning legs over your murderous fathers grave is correct and valid.

(from a conversation between roxygobyebye and sylenth-l on Tumblr)
In a picture posted by Osiris, Lord Felwinter leans dramatically on a gravestone labelled Rasputin, holding his coat aside to reveal fabulously shiny pants. A Warsat hurtles toward him in the distance.

This girlie is going to get her own post, but here are the (almost final) pictures of her. She's been to several conventions and adored by the very sweet props staff.

Black Talon in all her glory! My favourite sword in Destiny.
A replica of the Black Talon sword lies in some green grass. The sword has a shiny rainbow bird-shaped handle and wide blade, with lots of swirling black and purple details inside the blade.

The progress on Black Talon is going strong, and so will this thread about it. It's been going much better than I hoped, so here's some progress shots.

Nimbus knows the Last City doesn't have the same dazzling entertainment options as Neomuna does, but they're still ready to support the City's many bars and... uhhhh.... Guardian maid cafes?

(Does the Vanguard know about this?)

Hey guys listen I've heard great things about the new Nether activity in Destiny but I think I'm doing something wrong? Any advice appreciated :(
A picture of the Nether from Minecraft, looking over a large open space with lava, red trees, and enemies. A hunter from Destiny holds a gun looking very confused.

Mithrax is beginning to think he needs to keep a closer eye on who the hatchlings see in the Eliksni Quarters. Some of them are developing rather... morally ambiguous attitudes.
