The Festival of the Lost

“These are the traditions of the City, Guardian. We share them with you so you might better understand those whom you protect.”

The Festival of the Lost is a Grimoire card from the original Destiny (Destiny 1), found under Activities → Other Activities. Grimoire cards held most of the game's lore and were read on Bungie.net and in the companion app, not in the game itself.

Card text

“To live is to experience loss,” Eva said. “My husband and child are dead. My friends, my neighbors, the children I watched over on our road to the City... all gone now. The festival celebrates their lives with both joy and sorrow.”

“A fine tradition for the City,” Ikora Rey replied. “What meaning does it hold for the Guardians?”

“A bit of Light in a dark time. That is enough.”

“We have greater concerns. And this is no time for games.”

“All Guardians were lost once,” said Eva. “We honor your spirits as well.”

Grimoire text written by Bungie, shown as it appears in the Destiny 1 game files.
