So I have a potentially complicated question to ask, because Destiny is extremely poorly explained Space Fantasy.
So Guardians are able to wield the Light, which is some kind of magic bestowed upon them by a (probably) benevolent Space Orb. It grants them immortality along with enhanced strength and endurance, and the ability to manifest some weapons/abilities based on their subclass. (For instance, as a Gunslinger, Cayde can create throwing knives, grenades, and every now and then a fancy revolver that basically blows people up.)
The thing is, I'm not 100% certain but it seems like even though it's their light, it isn't actually housed in them. Every Guardian has a Ghost that they're linked to, essentially a little floating robot that seems to house their light. It's explicitly the Ghost that revives a Guardian if they die, for instance.
So I guess what I'm asking is if it's right to assume that Cayde would wake up without his Ghost and without the Light?
