Subject: Bungie was first with the big orb concept

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

You do realise that the Traveler (not to mention, the entire story of Destiny judging by the leaked details) is directly ripped from Arthur C. Clarke's 'Childhood's End', right? So what if Bungie said "we want to have a giant orb in our game" before 343? Neither the Traveler nor the Cryptum are original concepts.


This is some good info, thank you

Here is the short story "Childhood's End" is based on ("Guardian Angel" or in other words, a Seraph) , I'm reading it now, but I did skim it, and there was someone talking to a sphere, kind of like the one in the concept art.
