==Rasputin's View of Light and Dark==

'''Understanding of the Light'''<br>

Rasputin first refers to The [[Traveler]] as "the Gardener", alluding to its role in nurturing civilization.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/cards/ghost-fragment-mysteries?highlight=titanomach Ghost Fragment: Mysteries]</ref> However Rasputin grew cautious of the Traveler as it came from somewhere unknown. Due to this Rasputin began to question its motives and whether the Traveler could bring any foreign dangers with it.

Hating the possibility of risks, he devised a contingency plan that would be kept secret and no other human or AI system could access for the sake of protecting humanity. His plan was if the Traveler showed any signs of betrayal or attempts to flee, Rasputin would prevent this as he believed he was morally justified to protect humanity.

'''Understanding of Darkness'''<br>

Rasputin was the one to first discover the coming of the Darkness which he termed ''"IT"''.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Ghost_Fragment:_Darkness|Ghost Fragment: Darkness]]''</ref> At the time, Rasputin's original core programming was to protect humanity. To be allowed to be this, he was designed to be stronger than the enemies of Earth and to survive anything that was thrown at him.

When Rasputin detected a faint signal on the outskirts of our Solar System, he jumped into action. Unable to identify the source or type, he believed there was evidence to suggest there were traces of dark matter. Upon further analysis of multiple findings, he postulated that ''"IT"'' had a structured intelligence and purpose and flagged it as not operating by the laws of cause and effect. Using the minimal data that he had, he concluded that ''"IT"'' was hostile and capable of an interplanetary extinction event. He activated the correct protocols and sent messages to the other Warminds to prepare for defensive actions.

As ''"IT"'' entered our Solar System, he commanded the Warminds to stop the Darkness and protect all humans. The Warminds fought against the Darkness and one by one, began to fall. Realising he could do nothing to stop it, Rasputin had to make a choice: to fight against the Darkness, or survive. Once it became clear that no conceivable action could be taken to fulfill his core programming, he implemented a protocol known as MIDNIGHT EXIGENT and reconfigured his core programming to that of long term survival, abandoning his previous function and going dark, while simultaneously ordering all remaining forces at his disposal to do the same.
