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...
故事講述了很久以前的一個黃金時代，我們的文明跨越了整個太陽系。那是一段光明而充滿希望的時光，但並沒有持續下去……
這幾句話，播下了宇宙的第一顆嫩種。許多人已經開始培育形成世界的基石的原始思想；越來越多人紛至沓來，川流不息，承擔起照料這蔚為大觀的花園的重任。在這座花園中，許多故事，許多名字，許多地方從大地中蓬勃而出。其中一些生長起來，抓住了光，綻放而昇華，但就像人類的造物所要經歷的那樣，我們世界上的許多神話和紀念碑都遺忘腐朽了。
而現在，你卻置身於千朵璀璨的玫瑰和毀滅的結局之中。在這本選集中，是對呼聲的選擇——虛構的，但非常生動的人物，他們見證了一個時代的崩潰，仍然自強不息努力塑造一個他們自己設計的未來。
這些故事也只是一個開始。當你閱讀的時候，你可能會發現還有一千多個故事在等待著你，它們蟄伏在肥沃的土壤深處。它們會輕聲細語，抓住你的心靈，並敢於在你的想象中紮根——不僅用這些文字、這些書頁、這些作品所揭示和暗示的東西來激勵你，而且讓你去想象可能出現的東西。每一則新的啟示本身都可能是一顆種子，在未來世界的塑造中播種、培育和照料。

介紹
我一直覺得這個世界蘊藏著秘密，被遺忘的故事等著被發現。然而，與許多玩家一樣，我一開始忽視了這種感覺，只是追求珍貴的戰利品。直到我塞滿了我的保險庫，我戰勝了我的敵人，我才問為什麼，我為什麼要這麼做?
所以這一切探知開始了。我讀了戰敗敵人的日記，聆聽瀕死幽靈的記憶，辨識武器槍管上的銘文，意識到這個世界遠不止如此。我不僅是一個玩家，還是一個講故事的人，一個《命運》歷史的編年史學家，我將我的發現融入我自己的觀點和解釋。此時，武器不再僅僅是武器，盔甲不再僅僅是盔甲，敵人不再僅僅是目標。瞭解《命運》的歷史知識補充強化了遊戲樂趣。扣動最輕盈的扳機也有了重量，火箭咆哮著犧牲守護者的怒火。
我不是第一個，也不會是最後一個。還有許多人受到命運的歷史和虛構的啟發，以自己的方式拼湊命運宇宙的碎片。有些故事迷人眼目、故弄玄虛，而仍在激烈地爭論著。這本選集並不打算解決這些爭議，而是引導你加入到對話中來。
命運簡史 第一卷: 黑鏡，是關於你作為守護者的道路和暗影那揮之不去的誘惑。接下來的篇章將挑戰你的認知，讓你從不同的角度看這個世界：被征服的、被腐化的、被粉碎的。它並不代表一切，而是通過許多人物、許多人的視角，呈現了事件的一個版本。
The truth is for you to decide.
真相由你來決定。

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.
