前言
The stories tell of a golden age, long ago, when our civilization spanned the system. It was a bright and hopeful time, but it didn't last...
故事讲述了很久以前的一个黄金时代，我们的文明跨越了整个太阳系。那是一段光明而充满希望的时光，但并没有持续下去……
这几句话，播下了宇宙的第一颗嫩种。许多人已经开始培育形成世界的基石的原始思想；越来越多人纷至沓来，川流不息，承担起照料这蔚为大观的花园的重任。在这座花园中，许多故事，许多名字，许多地方从大地中蓬勃而出。其中一些生长起来，抓住了光，绽放而升华，但就像人类的造物所要经历的那样，我们世界上的许多神话和纪念碑都遗忘腐朽了。
而现在，你却置身于千朵璀璨的玫瑰和毁灭的结局之中。在这本选集中，是对呼声的选择——虚构的，但非常生动的人物，他们见证了一个时代的崩溃，仍然自强不息努力塑造一个他们自己设计的未来。
这些故事也只是一个开始。当你阅读的时候，你可能会发现还有一千多个故事在等待着你，它们蛰伏在肥沃的土壤深处。它们会轻声细语，抓住你的心灵，并敢于在你的想象中扎根——不仅用这些文字、这些书页、这些作品所揭示和暗示的东西来激励你，而且让你去想象可能出现的东西。每一则新的启示本身都可能是一颗种子，在未来世界的塑造中播种、培育和照料。

介绍
我一直觉得这个世界蕴藏着秘密，被遗忘的故事等着被发现。然而，与许多玩家一样，我一开始忽视了这种感觉，只是追求珍贵的战利品。直到我塞满了我的保险库，我战胜了我的敌人，我才问为什么，我为什么要这么做?
所以这一切探知开始了。我读了战败敌人的日记，聆听濒死幽灵的记忆，辨识武器枪管上的铭文，意识到这个世界远不止如此。我不仅是一个玩家，还是一个讲故事的人，一个《命运》历史的编年史学家，我将我的发现融入我自己的观点和解释。此时，武器不再仅仅是武器，盔甲不再仅仅是盔甲，敌人不再仅仅是目标。了解《命运》的历史知识补充强化了游戏乐趣。扣动最轻盈的扳机也有了重量，火箭咆哮着牺牲守护者的怒火。
我不是第一个，也不会是最后一个。还有许多人受到命运的历史和虚构的启发，以自己的方式拼凑命运宇宙的碎片。有些故事迷人眼目、故弄玄虚，而仍在激烈地争论着。这本选集并不打算解决这些争议，而是引导你加入到对话中来。
命运简史 第一卷: 黑镜，是关于你作为守护者的道路和暗影那挥之不去的诱惑。接下来的篇章将挑战你的认知，让你从不同的角度看这个世界：被征服的、被腐化的、被粉碎的。它并不代表一切，而是通过许多人物、许多人的视角，呈现了事件的一个版本。
The truth is for you to decide.
真相由你来决定。

Foreword
The stories tell of a golden age, long ago, when our civilization spanned the system. It was a bright and hopeful time, but it didn't last...
With these few words, the first delicate seeds of a universe were sown. Many hands had already begun to nurture the primordial ideas and form the bedrock of a world; many, many more would soon come to lend themselves to the task of tending what would become vast and varied gardens of story, and of names and places springing forth from the fundament. Some grew and grasped for the light, blossomed, and as human creations so often do, many of our world's myths and monuments fell to ruin.
And now, here you are in the midst of a thousand radiant roses and ruinous ends. Within this anthology is a selection of voices-the fictional, but very much living characters that have witnessed the collapse of an age, yet goad and strive to shape a future to their own design.
These tales, too, are only just a beginning. As you read, you may detect a thousand more stories still to come, dormant, hidden deep within the fertile soil. They'll whisper and grasp and dare to take root in your imagination-to inspire you not only with what is revealed and implied by these words, these pages, these works, but to allow you to imagine what may yet emerge. Each new revelation may itself be a seed to sow, nurture, and tend in the shaping of worlds to come.

Introduction
I have always felt that this world contains secrets, forgotten stories waiting to be discovered. However, like many players, I first ignored that feeling, and just pursued precious loot. It was only after my vault was full, and my enemies defeated that I asked why; why am I doing this?
So it began. I read the journals of defeated enemies, the memories of a dying Ghost, the etchings on the barrel of a weapon, and realized there was much more to this world. I became not only a player but a storyteller, a chronicler of Destiny's history, infusing my discoveries with my own perspectives and interpretations. Weapons were no longer just weapons, armor no longer just armor, and enemies no longer just targets. Understanding the lore of Destiny complemented and enhanced the gameplay. Pulling the trigger now had weight, rockets howled with the sacrifice of fallen Guardians.
I was not the first, and I will not be the last. Many others have been inspired by the history and fiction of Destiny, piecing together fragments of the Destiny Universe in their own way. Some stories are hidden, misleading, deceptive, and still fiercely debated. This anthology does not set out to solve these disputes but, instead, entice you to join the conversation.
Destiny Grimoire Anthology, Volume I: Dark Mirror, is about your path as a Guardian and the haunting temptation of the dark. The collection of lore entries that follows challenges you to see this world through different perspectives: the vanquished, the corrupted, and the shattered. It does not represent everything, but rather presents a version of events told by many characters, through many eyes.
The truth is for you to decide.

A fellow Guardian
