Destiny 2 - CAYDES PLOT TWIST! Who Ace Really Is

Cayde-6. He had a family. A Wife and a son named Ace. We have some more info in the Final Shape on the early days of Cayde-6 and this may change everything. Were they actually real?

[@franciscoandres4907]

I don't think the details really mattered to Cayde. In the end, they were real to him. And that's all the proof he needed.

[@soulsurvivor8293]

Is it possible that Cayde was the unamed second father of the Abram's family? His feelings toward Sunderesh were one sided and Micha Abram's only ran into Cayde-1 after he went "Missing". Not to mention the fact that Micha was a young boy still grappling with their Gender Identity at the time. If so, Cayde remembering Micha as his "Son" whom was nicknamed Ace and wouldn't be a contradiction of the Lore Provided. The fact remains that even pre-guardian Exo Cayde had difficulty remembering what Ace looked like and the name of his one sided love, Sunderesh. Micha not recognising her father in an Exo body isn't much of a stretch either.

Zavala should have asked if he had seen his family in the afterlife

I don’t think regular people go there. Guardians and ghosts return to the traveler for euphoria land

[@Tom.morals]

Theres already an in-game exchange between Zavalla and Cayde where the latter states that the afterlife, so to speak, that he experienced was more like all of the guardians and ghosts returning to the Traveler and living in peace. However Zavalla responds saying something along the lines of how thats not an afterlife hes interested in nor is it worth being a part of if he cant see his late wife Safiyah and son Hakim there.

He explained what happened after he died, he was pulled back pretty much instantly from his perspective but was years for us. He couldn't havw told him that if he wanted.

The idea that Cayde has no family, that Ace was never really ever real is honestly a sickening thought. Not in the way that an idea is perverse, but in a way that it is just so horrifying.

Man, I tried to play the Cayde's Fate mission from the timeline, because I wanted to record the cutscenes again. (Xbox deleted my old ones, and I needed them for an edit i wanted to do) Except, the intro one is totally gone, and the majority of the cutscenes are cut up into a montage with Ikora narrating over it. DUDE. they cut most of the mission, too! No intro section, you just have the part with the security bit, that Cayde hacks, and then the bossfight with the ogre. EVERYTHING else got cut and summarized in the cutscene at the start or end. The only intact cutscene is the one where Cayde dies. Bruh

[@MrMightyZ]

Being an Exo would be an end to pain and ageing. The only downside is you’re regularly killed by memory wipe. Unless the plot decides you needed to persist like Elsie. And what Exo’s were all living their lives until they get a call? Then they just catch the bus to Clovis Bray and get in line to have their memory wiped?? “Memory wipe? DUH ok”

[@korpsmaninfantry7238]

Elsie’s frame isn’t like that standard issue frames like cayde, Micah, Shiro, and Saint . Plus she time travels a lot so we don’t know how it interacts with her exo mind.

[@Azothify]

the memory wipes aren't standard. they're only really used when an exo has to change to a new frame. But there's degredation every transfer. The number next to an exo's name is how many times they've changed bodies. Elsie doesn't get reset though and her frame has a higher quality due to being a Bray, She's aware of the process and because of that, doesn't get the reset process because she knows the risks and is in the know. Banshee also has a similar frame as Elsie, but he's been reset so many more times that there's been catastrophic memory loss.

[@Slitheringpeanut]

Guardians are a special case.

[@Ediicius]

[@flamingscar5263]

1 question that I have after this lore is if the darkness inherit to exos is linked to Cayde talking about having flashes from before being a guardian, to my knowledge no one else has talked about having these flashes, becoming a guardian is a 2nd life to most, a life detached from the first, but maybe the link exos have to the darkness (Clovis using the darkness to make exos) and darkness being the energy of memories and realm of the mind means that exos have some residual memories from before becoming guardians, that darkness that was used to create them holds on to some bits and pieces from before they get brought back also Micah answered a question I've had for awhile, which is if exo guardians could grab a backup of their memories after getting brought back as a guardian, answer is yes as we know now, I just wonder how many exos have decided to do that, probably not many

[@outregis]

Really only anyone with the intent to travel to Europa and search the facilities. Though I can imagine it wasn't an Ideal since most exos were either very rich, or they were experiments and weapons.

[@MrMightyZ]

And is there anything in the lore that explains why exos have bodies that perfectly replicate flesh and muscle but their heads aren’t even close? I mean I know the real reason would be to save on creating seperate bodies for Exos but I always wondered if they explained it in lore.

My headcanon was always that his life as his Halo Character, or the Destiny Equivalent, was the family he had before.

[@echo1180]

I mean if he was writing to Ace before he met Micah that means they gotta be real right? Unless as a human he was lonely and made the story up in the first place so when he couldn’t remember things as an Exo he could have something to believe in?

[@outregis]

Thing is, ace could have many possibilities. Maybe it's a younger brother, or a cousin. Maybe a really close friend, the only person he had in life. I agree with his take, that it wasn't about whether they are truly real or not in the end, but that they felt real to him and that's all he needed to keep himself going.

[@deadnats5362]

You know what's a crazy thought what if "Maya Sundaresh" is "Sundance" Caydes Ghost. It makes sense because they both have sun in their names. That would mean Caydes wife was always right by his side till the end but it's a nice theory.

[@florianbarkowski6856]

Honestly i think he just mixes them both up. We do not know at what point in time human cayd left his son ace. Maybe he was around the same age as Micah. So we gotta assume if there even are memory flickers of his human life left, they are but a fraction of the memory flashes he has ofa family. So in the end I think they turned into the same as some sort of coping with the lost memory.

[@kahtyman7293]

I don't think exo guardians need memory wipes, so cayde-6 is all his time as guardian

[@outregis]

the number isn't to represent lives, it's purely to equate memory wipes. I will agree that this concept is a little foggy around guardians as they do technically lose memories as they transition into a guardian. However, it's even moreso like a medical tag, there to tell a technician preforming a wipe that the patient has gone through so many of those wipes. What I recall hearing, however, is that Cayde had gone through 6 wipes and was writing a letter to Ace that he refused to count beyond that, somehow thinking that 7 would be an unlucky number for him, and that if you ever see him walking around with that name you'll know they really got to him.

[@BO2ZombieX]

Far fetch theory but what if either YOUR Guardian or OUR Ghost is Ace. If the assumption that Sundance is Maya Sundaresh, it could be possible to speculate that those the Traveler helps/interacts become one with the Traveler. To become one with the Traveler must require: Devotion, Bravery, Sacrifice then upon Death a choice is made, Ghost or Guardian. After a choice can be selected , either decision, the next step is to find someone worthy of the Light. Some Guardian and their Ghosts can be surmmized as Random Picks but other pairings can be quite Coincidental. Thus the speculation that The Memories the Pale Heart creates such as Cradle and Faith for Ikora, Zavala's Family and his Dark Age memories, Cayde's interpretation would be a mix of Human/Exo Cayde-6 to Cayde-6 as a Guardian. It would also seem poetic that Cayde-6 in-universe meant so much to so many that he would also mean just as much to us as the player. Especially when he refers to us as his favorite. It would make it even more impactful his sacrifice as well as his purpose for being Cayde-6 from beginning to end. It would also mean that future developments such as Maya Sundaresh copies in the Vex Network and upcoming threats to humanity have something to do about NOT letting go, The opposite of the main Theme of Cayde's presence in The Final Shape DLC. The History of Cayde-6 has more mysteries to solve. Especially all those in the Exomind Archive...I mean if Atraks-1 could come back then who knows......but just always remember Cayde 1-6 are closed books.... ...if there's ever a Cayde-7. DO. NOT. TRUST. HIM.

Well a key thing is that Exos are also part vex tech, and while the vex aren't a traditional sense of the word "species", their radiolaria is very much organic. I do believe in some way they developed Exos to effectively transfer the essence of a human fully over to the machine, thus a Ghost can easily see a person inside of these deactivated bots.

Stuff like this is why I started to lose interest in Destiny. They take pretty solid stories from Destiny 1, and then flip them all around for.... reasons?

@@Specter_TF141 It's just a lore tid bit. It in no way affects the main story. Till now you wouldn't have known that Micah is a queer exo. So I don't understand how they are projecting in any sense.

Sounds like a DEI writer trying to tie sympathy to their ideals by shoe horning a narrative in to a beloved character.

[@seraph8]

You seem upset about diversity and inclusion in a game whose lore is all about complexity and diversity being a strength rather than a weakness; like, it's one of the core tenets of the Light and the purpose of the Traveler. Why is that? What is wrong about including stories about people of different backgrounds? The use of 'DEI' as an attack against anyone who is not part of the hegemony is just the latest iteration of 'political correctness' and the co-opting of the term 'woke' as a pejorative; it means nothing and serves no purpose other than to foment ugly hate. If you don't like the lore, feel free to ignore it or play another game. Destiny has always been about the complexity and diversity of the Light against the simplicity and Darwinism of the Witness' interpretation of the Darkness (i.e. the Sword Logic). That you are just coming to realize this just says you're not very perceptive.

@@tyronarmstrong6883 Yeah, _I'm_ the one crying. /s Try not getting so upset over the existence of people who are different than yourself and their inclusion in a _video game_ whose central philosophy is explicitly about complexity and diversity. If my post consisting of two short paragraphs counts as "too long," you might not be as astute as you think you are. Oh, so fragile.

@@tyronarmstrong6883 Is a sequence of seven short sentences a book to you? You were the one who made a post about it to begin with; clearly, you're the one who was upset enough to raise the "issue." I'm just challenging ugly bigotry where I see it.

I’m seriously done with all these stupid red cons that bungie keeps pulling in the lore. I swear this is the last expansion I play. I love destiny for its gameplay, but I love the Lord when it’s very accurate and they have been very sloppy with their consistency.

[@mshaman86]

This isn't a retcon. This was all explained in forsaken.

[@thewolfofdoyle]

@@mshaman86 what are you talking about beyond light It said that you have to be put into a near exact EXO otherwise it would have that EXO mind deterioration. where they freaked out and started destroying themselves. Like the one that had a second pair of arms the mind couldn’t comprehend or handle the irregularity and it started to freak out and destroy itself by ripping the extra arms off. The reason why I said near exact is because it can be not completely exact due to one of the EXO complaining that Elsie Bray had one that was more suited to her original body. So Micah-10 having a completely different body from the original gender, they had is a total Redcon of the EXO mind deterioration. If they really were going to forsake this part of the lore they shouldn’t have put it in the lore in the first place.

I think it is a long stretch to make a way to shoe horn a political agenda into the game

[@seraph8]

What is political about inclusivity? Many types of people exist. Why shouldn't their stories be included in a game whose philosophy is all about complexity and diversity?

[@Crocthunder]

Can they just not make any new characters not straight without you freaks immediately jumping up and down whining ? Doesnt even MATTER if its well written to you people now
