The Speaker was | The Speaker was born to two self-exiles during the [[Dark Age]] and learned he was the last known [[Speaker (title)|Speaker]], coming into possession of a mask built by another Speaker that allowed them to commune with the [[Traveler]] to an extent despite its damaged state. He eventually came to live in a small settlement of three-hundred people in the shadow of a mountain which fell under the tyrannical rule of [[Warlord]] [[Cathal]]. After six years of his rule, the [[Iron Lords]] arrived and drove Cathal away, leaving the settlement independent. Shortly after this, a silver [[Ghost]] found the Speaker and began to follow him as it continued its search for a being worthy of being reborn in the [[Light]]. One year later, the Speaker and several other leaders of the village met with Lady [[Efrideet]] to hear an offer for them to join a growing [[The Last City|city]] being built underneath the Traveler. During the meeting, the Speaker heard the Traveler express its approval of the City and desire to be a beacon calling its "children" home to it. The Speaker trusts Efrideet's assurances of protection and claim that the Warlords are nearly defeated, along with the fact that governance of the city would be decided by all its citizens together, Risen and non-Risen alike. The Speaker and the rest of the settlement leaders agree to move to the Last City.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/12/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Dawn]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Constellations#Building|Constellations - Building]]</ref> | ||
After arriving in the City, the Speaker established himself as a religious leader and preached about the Traveler and its ways. After the destruction of the [[Iron Lords]], the Speaker gained power in the Last City and helped to establish the [[Consensus]] (with himself as its head) and [[Vanguard]] to help keep order. The Consensus appointed [[Saint-14]] as the [[Titan (class)|Titan]] Vanguard and [[Vanguard Commander]], [[Tallulah Fairwind]] as the first of many [[Hunter]] Vanguard Mentors.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/12/5)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Garden Progeny 1]]''</ref> , and the Warlock [[Osiris]] as the Warlock Vanguard, despite many rumors about his origins and the opposition of the [[Concordat]], who claimed Osiris was the product of a failed [[Golden Age]] experiment mistakenly reincarnated into a human by his Ghost, [[Sagira]].<ref name= "Osiris"/> Shortly after this, Saint-14 stepped down from Vanguard Commander, in order to pursue his crusade against the Fallen, and nominated Osiris to take his place. | |||
Years later, the Speaker declared the position of Hunter Vanguard vacant following the two-year disappearance of the current Vanguard, [[Kauko Swiftriver]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Raise|Raise]]''</ref> Soon after, the Speaker and Osiris sent Saint-14 after the notorious [[Fallen]] mercenary [[Taniks, the Scarred]] after his murder of the Hunter [[Nian Ruo]] and several other Guardians. Saint-14 failed to find Taniks, although one of Nian's comrades, [[Cayde-6]], succeeded and was believed to have killed Taniks, although the mercenary secretly survived the encounter. The supposed demise of Taniks elevated [[Andal Brask]] to the vacant seat of the Hunter Vanguard, as he and Cayde had made the Vanguard Dare over who would kill Taniks, with the loser becoming the new Vanguard.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Winner_Take_All|Winner Take All]]''</ref> | Years later, the Speaker declared the position of Hunter Vanguard vacant following the two-year disappearance of the current Vanguard, [[Kauko Swiftriver]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Raise|Raise]]''</ref> Soon after, the Speaker and Osiris sent Saint-14 after the notorious [[Fallen]] mercenary [[Taniks, the Scarred]] after his murder of the Hunter [[Nian Ruo]] and several other Guardians.
