'''Humanity''' is a sapient species native to the planet [[Earth]].<ref>[https://db.destinytracker.com/d1/destinations/2468353467-old-russia-earth '''Destiny Tracker''' - ''Director planet blurb'']</ref>

The remaining humans are all that survive of a race whose reach once spanned the [[Solar System]], having descended from those who endured the apocalyptic [[Collapse]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/The City#The Dark Age|The Dark Age]]''</ref> Since then, they have fought to restore our toppled civilization to its [[Golden Age]] splendor<ref>[http://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/coldheart?highlight=coldheart '''Ishtar Collective''' - Cold Heart]</ref> — first by the legendary [[Iron Lords]],<ref>'''Bungie (2016/20/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Plaguelands]] [[Story|Story Mission]]''</ref> and more recently by the [[Guardians]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian/Classes#Guardians|Guardians]]''</ref>

But this Golden Age would not last. Unbeknownst to humanity, the Traveler had an ancient enemy;<ref name="A Guardian Rises"/> a powerful [[Darkness]] that precipitated the Collapse and nearly wiped out mankind,<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire:Enemies/Darkness#The Darkness|The Darkness]]''</ref> if not for the intervention of the Traveler who sacrificed itself to push back the assailing Darkness.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXDmX5rJC8E '''YouTube''' - Prologue]''</ref> And with its dying breath, the Traveler created [[Ghosts]]<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian/Ghost#Ghosts|Ghosts]]''</ref> to seek out those worthy to carry on its task.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description, [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/cry-defiance-3 Cry of Defiance]''</ref>

In the dark decades after the Collapse,<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description, [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/retro-grade-mark Retro-Grade Mark]''</ref> Humans, [[Exos]], and [[Awoken]] found the Traveler where it made its final stand and built the [[City]]<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150206135229/http://www.destinythegame.com:80/game/story '''destinythegame''' - ''2014 story reveal'']</ref>—the last bastion of mankind—beneath its shadow.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Earth#Earth|Earth]]''</ref> And from an [[Dark Age|age]] of chaos and death began the [[City Age]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/The City#The City Age|The City Age]]''</ref>

Though its tenuous peace<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/City Factions#Factions|Factions]]''</ref> lasted for the better part of a hundred years,<ref>'''Bungie (2017/28/3)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Age of Triumph]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_%26_Mysteries#Ghost_Fragment:_Fallen_6|Ghost Fragment: Fallen 6]]''</ref> the City Age would ultimately come to a shattering end in the wake of the devastating [[Cabal]] [[Red War|invasion]]; with the heroic deeds of [[The Guardian]] bringing an end to the [[Red Legion]]'s siege<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref> and marking the dawn of a new Golden Age.<ref>[https://db.destinytracker.com/d2/ru/vendors/3819664660-executor-hideo Destiny 2 Executor Hideo]</ref>
