#and chiasmus means crossing point like a wormhole or a portal or a door

Hearing about non-linear storytelling in future Destiny releases (in today's blog) makes me very excited. One of Destiny's great strengths is coaxing you into the lore via curiosity, which leads you down self-directed rabbit holes where you discover things for yourself. That is the best feeling, and if they can translate that to the game's structure, they could do some exciting things that engage players far more deeply.
Also love this art. First one very much reads as Venus to me (gas columns, The Citadel on the horizon), which I've been expecting a return to since Lightfall.
Second and third are more mysterious, but I do have to point out the small glowing blue and red organic feature in the bottom left, which really reminds me of the coral from Deep and the jungle plants we're currently seeing in Echoes. The ship also looks like it's being torn apart or atomized, almost similar to when Darkness-infused enemies die and the tendrils scatter.
Those floating sensors are also interesting. The markings very much reads to me as Neomunian. And you all know me... I am just waiting for the [REDACTED] to become a more active element. So what could the Neomuni be helping us detect? What whispers on the zephyr are these sensors picking up?
We closed a door with The Final Shape, but we are opening a new one, a weird one, an exciting one, that takes Destiny to places it has never been before.
