Eris Morn and Drifter’s relationship, explained – Destiny 2 lore

Eris Morn and Drifter appear to have a delicate relationship in Destiny 2, especially during the game’s third episode, Heresy. If you took a break or (understandably) don’t always look at lore blurbs, you might be surprised by these two being almost together—but there’s a perfect explanation.
The coupling, often called Drifteris by some fans, has been around in some shape since at least 2020, but it came to the spotlight during Heresy. A certain spoiler-y story event from week one has the Drifter putting his feelings about Eris in the open, and the dialogue leaves little doubt about it.
