Destiny ViDoc: Pathways Out of Darkness

The Destiny ViDoc: Pathways Out of Darkness is the first Destiny ViDoc and it was released February 17, 2013.

Over the course of several interviews with the staff at Bungie, Destiny is revealed to be an ambitious and demanding project for the company.

Narration
''"The stories tell of a Golden Age, long ago, when our civilization spanned the system. It was a bright and hopeful time.

''But it didn't last. Something hit us, knocked us down and tried to stamp us out. No one knows exactly what. But we do know this: very few of us survived.

''And those who did owe their lives to the Traveler."

''"Legends say the traveler sacrificed itself to save us. The mysterious sphere still hangs where it made its last stand, low above the Earth. Keeping silent watch.

''The years that followed the collapse of the Golden Age were hard. But slowly, we joined together to build a city beneath the traveler. And now we've begun to venture back into the wild.

''Only to find that we're not alone. Strange and deadly creatures have occupied our old world, and they're pressing hard against the city, probing for a weakness, trying to stamp us out for good."

''"Your story begins at this moment of great adventure and peril. You are a guardian of the city, a soldier able to wield some of the Traveler's incredible power.

''If you can find a way to save the city, to reclaim all that we have lost, you will become legend. If you fail, the last light of civilization will go out."

Trivia
The ViDoc is named after Bungie's original first-person shooter, Pathways Into Darkness. Pathways is the spiritual predecessor to Marathon and is set in the same continuity.
