'''Broodhold''' was a [[Strike]] released under the ''[[Forsaken]]'' expansion. It was originally a PS4 exclusive but became available on all platforms a year later until it was put in the ''[[Destiny Content Vault]]'' with the release of [[The Witch Queen]].

[[Guardian]]s must breach the [[Tangled Shore]]'s crashed [[Hive Warship]] and destroy the nest inside of it, to drive the [[Hive]] out of the Shore. The mission will go awry when the nest's source reveals itself, requiring Guardians to rise to defeat the threat. With the release of [[The Witch Queen]] expansion, the strike was moved to the [[Destiny Content Vault]].

==Objectives==
*Locate the Hive nest
*Exterminate the Hive nest
*Pursue [[In Anânh, Brood Queen]]
*Eliminate In Anânh, Brood Queen

==Transcript==
''All dialogue is spoken through the [[Ghost]]'s comms.''

'''(Mission Begins)'''

''A Strike Team transmats to the [[Jetsam of Saturn]], and plows through the Hive forces in the area.''

'''[[The Spider]]''': Infestations starts small. Vermin goes scuttling through your home, and you think, "It was just one..." But the next thing you know, your Shore seethes. Guardians! Hive! And you dream of ways to exterminate them...The Hive have carved a nest deep into my Shore. Destroy it, and I'll consider it a partial reparation of your debts.

or

'''The Spider''': Two star-crossed lovers have sullied my Shore: our old friend [[Hiraks, the Mindbender|the Mindbender]] — may he rest in pieces — and In Anânh, a Hive Brood Queen, traitor to her kin. Eliksni have crossed lines with the Hive in the past, but never at this scale. I'm told there's a whole nest seething beneath my Shore, and I want it exterminated. Snuff it out, and I'll contemplate your debts to me.

(or, If you have [[Target: The Mindbender|killed]] the Mindbender before starting this mission)

'''The Spider''': You may have killed the Mindbender, but his legacy lives on. Whispers on the wind suggest he took a Hive Brood Queen as a consort. Now, I'm not one to obstruct unholy matrimony... but Eliksni ingenuity paired to Hive ferocity? No. Not on my doorstep. I'm sending you the coordinates to the nest. Burn it to the ground. If you do that much, we can... discuss... your debt to me.

''The team enters the Hive nest in Hellrise Canyon, where the Fallen are struggling to drive the Hive out of their hole.''

'''Ghost''': Fallen — up ahead.

or

'''Ghost''': Those aren't Spider's Fallen...

or
'''Ghost''': Spider, we've got Fallen in here.

'''The Spider''': The Eliksni have no love for the Hive. They understand no language but kill or be killed.

or

'''The Spider''': Houseless scavs, trying to claim a bit of land for themselves. Dead men walking, nothing more.

or

'''The Spider''': They're not mine. Shoot at will.

''The Fireteam plows through both sides, then pushes past several packs of Thralls into the canyon. Along the way, they find the floor covered in flames made of void energy. They get past it, and find a Knight with a strange glow guarding the chiten wall leading to the nest.''

'''Ghost''': Detecting elevated levels of Ether in that Knight.

or

'''Ghost''': Registering an abnormal Ether signature on that Knight.

''They kill it, but its worm does not die. One of the Guardians picks it up, and it begins to explode.''

'''Ghost''': Strange. The worm is infected with Ether, too.

or

'''Ghost''': This worm is radiating Ether, too.

'''The Spider''': [chuckling] Feed a Captain, curse a Thrall. Poison a Knight.

or

'''The Spider''': Ether must not sit well with the Hive. Perhaps the Mindbender thought he could breed out the intolerance...

''If Guardian does not put Ether Worm into Barrier right away.''

'''Ghost''': Ether-cursed Thrall are explosive. If this worm is cursed with Ether, too, then maybe we can use it to break down that barrier.

''The Guardian drops the worm into the chiten. Both it and the wall explode, opening the way into the next part of the canyon. More Fallen and Hive are fighting, and the Fireteam must push through both. The team gets past them and pushes past another segment of void flame on the floor. They find the hole leading to the nest, but it's guarded by Hive and blocked by an abnormal growth. Three Ether-poisoned Knights are scattered around the area, which the team dispatches. Using the tainted worms, they can damage the growth blocking the way. Screaming bloody murder, [[In Anânh, Brood Queen]] bursts out of the growth and attacks.''

'''Ghost''': Eyes up!

or

'''Ghost''': There she is!

or

'''Ghost''': We got company.

''The team unloads on her, but she escapes back into the hole in the ground. Fortunately, the growth is destroyed so that she can be followed.''

'''Ghost''': I've never heard of a Brood Queen so close to the surface. Mission reports from the [[Hellmouth]] on [[Moon|Luna]] don't even mention them.

or

'''Ghost''': Every Hive on the Tangled Shore was probably born here, in this nest. If we kill that Queen - we cut them off at the source. 

or

'''Ghost''':  If we kill the Brood Queen, that’s the end of this nest — and if they haven’t dug too deep, the end of the Hive on the Tangled Shore. 


''The team follows her deeper into the nest. She lays more void traps, but they are avoided. The way forward is impeded by more Hive, including an Ogre and a Shrieker. On top of this, a Knight from the Prison of Elders is trying to escape into the nest. While the Knight can be ignored, the other interlopers cannot. Once they are eliminated, In Anânh dispatches a Shade of herself to slow them down. The shade Covers the way forward with more flame traps on the floor, forcing a confrontation.''

'''Ghost''': This is right out of [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx's]] [[Echo of Oryx|playbook]]. 

or

'''Ghost''': Watch yourself! 

or

'''Ghost''': There's our Queen again!

''The Shade attacks using void traps on the floor and barrages of Void projectiles, but the team manages to drive it off, clearing the path. Pushing past a pack of Thrall, the teams reach the deepest part of the nest, leaving the Brood Queen cornered. After detonating another Ether worm, In Anânh appears out of the growth, ready to fight. After she is weakened, she calls upon a Worm God, giving her the power to switch places with her shade. to switch places with her shade. Once the Shade is wounded enough, In Anânh returns, and splits her Shade from herself, forcing the fireteam to contend with two In Anânhs at once. The team manages to kill the real Brood Queen, but her Shade lives on to continue the fight. However, the team manages to put the Shade down, too.''

'''Ghost''': Spider. We cleared out the nest.

'''The Spider''': Ooh, so quickly? Why, if it was that easy, I don't think this counts toward your debts. I want a fair trade.

'''Ghost''':  That wasn't the agreement.

'''The Spider''': Oh, there was no agreement, little morsel. Just considerations. Mights and maybes. [laughter]
