Heres a thought, what if the Traveler has visited each and every one of the races that we meet in the game, but, upon granting them a certain "gift", the Darkness corrupts it to the point that it is rendered unrecognizable and incites the populace into chaseing after their "horrible" benefactor. The Rhinos could have been given the gift of national unity but the Darkness made it so that this unity was under a tyrannical emperor, crushing all opposing views. The other three seemed to have asked for eternal life in 3 seperate ways, the Hive receiving eternal life but all the effects of ageing, the Fallen given the gift of eternal life but ensureing that they are basically chained to the servitors and the Kains that control them, and the Vex getting eternal life in the form of mechanization, which the darkness promptly used to forge them all into a collective angsty hive-mind. What did we get? The Golden Age. What did the darkness do? Use our system to corner the Traveler and turn our home into a war-torn battle-field of angry species all trying to destroy the Traveler. . .. who just happens to be hovering over the last un-ruined city left on Terra. Just my two cents.
