The Traveler is an ancient and immensely powerful machine entity, the source of [[Ghost]]s and the Light-based powers of the [[Guardian]]s. It is a source of [[Light]], though not the only source in the universe.

The interior workings of the Traveler remain a mystery. The Ghost [[Balthazar]] claimed that Ghosts originate within the Womb, a place inside the Traveler described as a "cosmos inside a bottle" or an "infinite space enclosed within a celestial egg", where trillions of star-like souls orbit each other in a complex weave. Another Ghost named [[Peach]] was dismissive of this description, contending that neither she nor Balthazar can remember the time within the Traveler.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Activision Blizzard - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Ghost_Stories#Difference_of_Opinion|Ghost Stories: Difference of Opinion]]''</ref>[[Fenchurch Everis]] claims to have been inside the Traveler, but no one has been able to confirm the veracity of his story.

The exact timeline of events during the Collapse remains unclear, but it is known that the Traveler made a final stand against the Black Fleet, incurring severe damage in the process. During the battle, it managed to project a beam of Light into the far reaches of the system to protect the Exodus Colony Ship ''Yang Liwei'' from the Black Fleet, resulting in the ship being swallowed by a kugelblitz generated from the conflict between Light and Darkness.
