Mission Begins

  • Shaw Han - Guardians, do you read me?
  • Ghost - We hear you, Shaw. We are linked up and on our way to the facility.
  • Shaw Han - Excellent. As you know, our target is the House of Dusk's local Prime Servitor, Deksis. The thing has been feeding the local Fallen Ether since it was first built within the former House of Devils' lair. With everything you've been doing here, it is now more exposed than ever. Get in there and destroy it, we will not have another shot at this.

The Guardians enter the and encounter House of Dusk forces engaging the local Hive

  • Ghost - Huh? Shaw, the Hive are here.
  • Shaw Han - Probably ambitious remnants of Navôta's brood looking to reinforce themselves. Regardless, they stand in your way, take them down.

After defeating the invading Hive and House of Dusk defenders, including a few Dusk Guards, the Guardians are prompted to the terminal in the middle of the room

  • Ghost - Damn! The Fallen have sealed the entrance to their lair. Let me at that terminal, I'll see what I can do.

After interfacing with the terminal, a Darkness Zone falls on the arena and an onslaught of Fallen arrive

  • Ghost - Uh oh. Uh, keep them off me and I'll try and get that grid down soon.

The Guardians defeat the first wave

  • Ghost - Wow, the Fallen really employed the best firewall for this.
  • Shaw Han - Ghost, focus.
  • Ghost - What? It's not like this already advanced system is linked to a-

A Fallen siren is heard in the distance

  • Ghost - Yeah, I'll work faster.

The second wave falls

  • Shaw Han - Ghost, how much longer?
  • Ghost - Almost got it! Just a heads up, though, I'm picking up a lot of Fallen and Hive coming this way.
  • Shaw Han - Get ready, Guardians!

Hive skirmishers and Fallen guardians enter the arena, with the latter eventually reinforced by Etraks, Deksis's Protector. The Guardians neutralize the Major Captain and the laser grid barring further access into the Dusk's lair

  • Ghost - Got it! Haha! Advanced security grid my hind shell!
  • Shaw Han - Great work! Continue to make your way to their lair. Expect some fierce opposition.

The Guardians enter The Blast, discovering the vast and fierce opposition between them and Deksis. A Fallen Skiff approaches with a Fallen Walker and two Brigs, labeled "Defenders of Deksis" land on the left and side of the vast arena.

  • Ghost - Yeah, you weren't kidding by 'fierce opposition'.
  • Shaw Han - Their funeral. Take 'em out!

The Guardians slowly but surely take out the Fallen army before them and destroy the Walker and Brigs. The Gate to the Devil's Lair opens.

  • Ghost - We are in, Shaw! So, this is the former Devil's Lair, huh?
  • Shaw Han - Impressive, isn't it? Hidden under the shadow of an ancient colony ship and easily defensible from ground. All the more reason why we have to take out Deksis.

The Guardians arrive in the location itself and and come before a closed door

  • Ghost - We're here. Well, here goes nothing, hehe.

The door opens, revealing a cadre of Fallen surrounding a dormant Deksis Prime. After neutralizing the Fallen, Deksis awakes and locks its shell into place

  • Ghost - Its awake!
  • Shaw Han - Good luck, Guardians!

The Guardians engage Deksis and its protectors. Despite its defenses and protective measures by Defender of Deksis Elite Servitors, the Fireteam gets the Prime Servitor's health down to the final health bar.

  • Shaw Han - Deksis has nowhere to go! Take it down!

The Guardians finally destroy Deksis and its defenders finally retreat.

  • Ghost - We- we did it. The House of Dusk's Prime Servitor is destroyed. Ha ha ha! Shaw, Deksis is down!
  • Shaw Han - I'm in absolute disbelief myself. After Navôta, I should have expected you to come up on top, yet, still, you impress me Guardian! Without Deksis, the House of Dusk will scatter into crews at worst. Excellent work, Guardian. Come meet me for a debriefing whenever possible.
