Destiny Grimoire Anthology, Volume VII (subtitled Penumbra) is a hardcover collection of Grimoire material in printed form, released during Fall 2024.[1] The book primarily focuses on the Light and Darkness.
Description[edit]
Destiny Grimoire Anthology, Volume VII: Penumbra is a curated look at the universe of Destiny, examining how our understanding of two fundamental forces that underlie that universe - Darkness and Light - have evolved. Guardians are raised in the Traveler's Light, blessed with the ability to wield that Light as a weapon against the Darkness. But what does it mean to be a champion of the Light? Is the Darkness the real enemy? Or is there wisdom to be found in the shadows? [1]
Lore[edit]
Introduction[edit]
Friend,
I write as a woman changed. My recent contact with the Darkness was as formative as my long-ago rebirth in the Light. So after all this, here, at the end, I will say: Do not ignore the changes we have endured, and do not disregard the difference between the Light and the Darkness.
It is not vanity for me to acknowledge that I have unique insight to impart. I have witnessed Darkness in all its forms, in all its terrible pain and contortions, and all the violence it inflicts. But despite this and above all, I see in it the aches and yearnings for a more complete world. There is collapse and indistinction, but also, there is preservation. Not stultifying, but vital.
This is what I have learned:
We have harnessed the Darkness because it bears harnessing. It has yielded the fruits of our future, nurtured against great opposition.
Every boundary invites transgression. We are not beyond our own affronts, which have inevitably changed us. That is not weakness, or folly, or failure.
I maintain that balance is not equity. I do not accept the Darkness on the same terms as the Light. Darkness is a tool to be used and a path to walk, but it is not our essence. We must hold fast to that understanding. To do otherwise invokes delusion.
The Darkness and the Light are not opponents, but neither are they allies. There is a natural conflict between them, but we have the capacity to hold contradictions within ourselves, and so they mingle with great effort on our part. That is the beauty of our complexity, the purview of the Light.
Our safe contact with the Darkness is only possible because of the Light. Even so, the Light exists not as our protector, but as our guide.
That is all I wish to impart.
To every fire, its fuel,
