Moving Carter's vestigial functions to Emile or Jun lets them actually play a role in the story beyond 'guy with gun'. Genuinely all Carter does is approve Kat's plans and ram himself into a Scarab which exists only for him to ram himself into. Furthermore, oh god</p>

<title>Collections preview (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>I was wondering about some of the older things it shows me missing, but now I see that according to <a href="https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/46981">this update</a> it started collecting data for the collections with Warmind.  Anything before that was not recorded.  </p>
<p><em>&quot;Your Collection will begin with every piece of gear that you were holding in inventory or within your vault upon the launch of Warmind. If you had dismantled an item prior to May 8, it will not be available within your Collections.&quot;</em></p>
</blockquote><p>Note that subsequent posts from Bungie team members have clarified that some items began tracking in February, and that they were able to compile existing data to determine ownership for other items (notably most Eververse rewards). The line in the sand they're committing to for tracking is Warmind's release, but that's an &quot;underpromise and overdeliver&quot; statement; our collections will have a bit more than that when they're visible.</p>
<p>Check the new page on <a href="https://destinysets.com/collections">Destinysets.com</a> to see what's actually been recorded.</p>

<blockquote><p>&quot;The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demiurge">demiurge</a> of the Hive is the worm; the demiurge of the Vex is the thought; the demiurge of the Fallen is the ether, which is survival; the demiurge of the Cabal is authority.
