According to [[Osiris]], Arc is the element of motion and conduction, and is created when the electromagnetic forces of our universe struggle to achieve balance. According to [[Ikora]], Arc teaches that change is a fundamental aspect of the universe, and that "to wield it is to ride the storm of the unguessable".<ref>'''Bungie (2023/2/28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Lightfall]] - [[Osiris]]: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjEDQ0IlmAI Arc — Osiris's Interpretation]''</ref> | |||
