The | [[Oryx]], the father of Crota, has sent his fleet to avenge his fallen son. Using his terrible power, Oryx creates a new army called the [[Taken]], and lays siege to the entire solar system. The [[Awoken]] fleet attempt to stop him before he can enter the Inner System, but they are utterly destroyed. He then starts Taking the Cabal stationed on [[Phobos]], which catches the Vanguard's attention. Responding to a distress signal, the player is sent to investigate. Upon seeing the devastation, the player is confronted by a vision of Oryx, who tells the player that he is there to pay back humanity for his son's death. Realizing the threat that laid before them, [[Cayde-6]] crafts a plan with the player to sneak aboard Oryx's [[Dreadnaught]]. Though they are successful, they cannot enter Oryx's inner sanctum until the player becomes Ascendant; Eris helps the player recover the last fragments of Crota's Soul, allowing entry into Oryx's chambers, where they duel. | ||
Though Oryx's physical form was defeated, he retreated even further into the ship, recovering his strength. Meanwhile, the Guardians work towards pushing the Taken out of the system. Once Oryx's lieutenants have been defeated, the Guardians push deeper into the Dreadnaught to seek out Oryx within his Ascendant realm. There, he confronted the Guardians with his full might, even pulling them into the Darkness dimension. But in the end, using Light stolen from his pawns, Oryx was slain permanently. | |||
