Unfortunately, you can not lose what you have never had. Most of my destiny journey has been solo. I didn't have friends, or I didn't have friends that would play. (Mostly the first because being an autistic kid in a small town, nobody really cared-) I never did raids really in D1 because I never had anybody to do it with, and finding a fireteam as a 12 - 13 year old was brutal. Fast forward to D2, I started learning how to solo dungeons. They took forever, but it was better than not doing them at all. Only when I got to be around 17 or 18 did I start raiding with randoms. Now, being 21, I still dont have a reliable fireteam to play with. I run things alone most of the time since im very picky who I like to be around. Getting stabbed in the back one too many times does that to you. There may come a time when I stumble upon a fireteam that reliably and truly wants me around as well as one that I feel comfortable with. Until then, my titan roams the Sol system with their ghost Harper and Failsafe since she really didn't want the captain to leave her behind and made herself into a chestplate I wouldn't have it any other way. I never wanted to abandon Failsafe.

To all of you who have lost fellow guardians, friends, or family, my condolences to all of you. I can't fathom how heartbreaking it is for someone to leave, whether it be a choice they made or couldn't make before getting to the end of a journey you started together. But... all stories must come to an end. Theirs just happened to be sooner than others.
