Editing Deathsong

The song was originally known as the Song of Life (also known as the Song of Creation) and was gifted by the [[The Traveler|Traveler]]. The song's frequencies were heard across the stars, wherever life's promise took hold. Worshipped by both members of the [[Ammonite]]s and the Hive, others sought to understand and control it, unravel its secrets and gain control over life and, more importantly, death. For centuries, the Song remained untamed as it seemed the Song did not grant life on its own.<ref name="UnmakeI"/>

A group of Hive known as the ''Choir'' eventually formed that celebrated the Song and would make repeated performances. However, the origins of the Song of Life and Creation from the Traveler caused the Song to hurt and corrupt the [[Darkness]] infused Hive, while the Song's secrets remained beyond their grasp. Eventually, a Hive known as the Striken found hidden notes within the song and, by making them reversed and mirrored in pitch, weaved her own song that she sang at the Choir, killing the First Conductor. Intrigued by the song, the Choir eventually captured the Stricken and had her interrogated to understand her findings. The Stricken's discoveries would be used to create a whole new song, what would soon be known as the Deathsong.<ref name="UnmakeI">'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned|Inquisition of the Damned]], [[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned#IX.I: The Unmaking|IX.I: The Unmaking]]''</ref> During the [[Hive-Ammonite war]], the Choir employed the Deathsong against a world and species whose names were erased from the [[The World's Grave|World's Grave]]. Landing at set points around the planet's equator, twenty members sang, causing unparalleled devastation worldwide until, less than one hour later, the planet split in half.<ref name = "UnmakeII" >'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned|Inquisition of the Damned]], [[Lore:Inquisition_of_the_Damned#IX.II:_The_Unmaking|IX.II: The Unmaking]]''</ref>

At some point, however, the Choir became known as the ''Broken Choir'', and their legendary perfected Deathsong was lost. The Choir and their Deathsong would be considered the stuff of myth and folklore, untrue at best and greatly exaggerated at worst.<ref name = "UnmakeII"/> Although many [[Deathsinger]] Wizards that came created deadly Deathsongs of their own, they are considered far from the true power of the perfect-pitched Song in legends,<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned|Inquisition of the Damned]], [[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned#XI: The Anti-Logic|XI: The Anti-Logic]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - Item Description: [[Deathbringer#Lore|Deathbringer]]''</ref> and many such as [[Ir Yût, the Deathsinger|Ir Yût]] had given up on the dream of rebuilding the Choir and perfecting the Deathsong.<ref name = "UnmakeII"/>

One Wizard, [[Ir Airâm, Deathsinger|Azavath]], would still cling to her dream of rebuilding the Choir, leading it and perfecting the Deathsong, being noted that she is one of the rare few so purely connected to the pain of being that makes her worthy of the Choir.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/29)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned|Inquisition of the Damned]], [[Lore:Inquisition_of_the_Damned#IX.X: Apocrypha|IX.X: Apocrypha]]''</ref> After her rebirth by Savathun as Ir Airâm in the body of her dead sister, [[Malkanth, the Deceiver|Malkanth]],<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/29)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned|Inquisition of the Damned]], [[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned#IX.X.II: Apocrypha|IX.X.II: Apocrypha]]''</ref> she would attempt to rebuild the Choir [[Sulmâkta, High Conductor|with]] [[Ir Absuul, First Aria|four]] [[Ir Nagash, Second Aria|other]] [[Ir Sûfra, Third Aria|Witches]]. After the events of [[Shadowkeep]], The Guardian, with the assistance of [[Eris Morn]] and guidance of Toland, would go to search and weaponize a Deathsong from Ir Airâm and her choir to form a rocket launcher known as [[Deathbringer]].<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]] - [[Symphony of Death]]''</ref>
