Lance Reddick is a famous actor, with important roles in The wire i John Wick, among other things. It is also the voice of DestinyCommander Zavala, and apparently is not above granting fan requests to make a voiceover of the memes sent to him.
That he did yesterday when Destiny xMechanizex player sent him a meme taken from the opening scene of Season of the Chosen, which was released earlier this week. In it, Empress Cabal Caiatl tells Reddick’s character, Zavala, to bend his knee to accept an alliance against his enemies. Zavala declines and separates, starting the final round of the game’s alien blood game.
This caused some players to joke that Zavala should have come in and reminded the Empress how many times players have collectively hit the asses of the Cabal in the past. The great evils have become a difficult sale in a game that involves cultivating them to the point of nausea to get fresh loot. And so a new one Destiny the meme was born and later immortalized thanks to Reddick’s completely serious realization:

Reddick is too pure for this world, and certainly for this game.
