The Greek Flood Zone is a Destination in Destiny 2, introduced in Jackal's Labyrinth season of Forsaken. A region within the ruins of Greece, centered in the former city of Athens, it is the current location where the Fallen House of Lions reside in, with their enormous Ketch, the Lionship Andiks-Fel shadowing over a portion of the Flood Zone. The Greek Flood Zone also hosts a Cabal detachment, as well as a minor presence of a returning Hive Brood.

Overview

The House of Lions holds most of the control of the Greek Flood Zone as indicated by their numerous banners and encampments littered across the region almost subsumed by water. However, Red Legion soldiers and Blades of the Exiled raiders continuously attack them to claim their territory. Guardians can find Lion crews across the region combating the invaders and can assist them in eliminating them. The region also contains three Lost Sectors and can participate in Public Events and Patrols in order to strengthen their alliance with the House of Lions.

History

During the onset of the Red War, the House of Lions were forced out of the Reef and the Kuiper Belt due to the Taken overrunning them and moved to Earth while the Lions' Run was heavily weaken and later abandoned as the rest of the Lions moved towards Earth. There the Lions would settle in the ruins of Greece, but had to combat the newly Cabal Red Legion installment, led by the temporarily lightless Guardian AJ, the Relentless, the Lions conducted aggressive but suicidal raids against the Cabal 12th Company stationed there as they began carving out a den to call home. Eventually cultivating with AJ facing the commander, Val Zho'ogurn without his light in the Fleetbase Azure, and slew him thanks to an unknown power. Soon after, AJ regained his Light and helped the Lions successfully take over the Greek Flood Zone and make their new home. He would lead a defensive against the Red Legion retaliation and defeated numerous cabal leaders, including the assassination of Valus Ta'ul, the Knowledge-Seeker and outmanuevering Val Za'ourg who tried avenging Ta'ul. The Red Legion would be broken and forced to retreat back into the Fleetbase Azure. At some point, remnants of the Hive Brood, Blades of the Exiled would resurface and begin combating the House of Lions, but did not gain much as they were immediately pushed back.

During the aftermath of the Battle of the Forges, the House of Lions within the Lions' Run would be attacked by a newly made Crime Syndicate, The Jackal Syndicate, led by their Kell, Seriviks. Leading to the Kell of Lions, Joskaa, to open the Greek Flood Zone to the Guardians and initiated a Crusade against the Jackals. Several Jackal operatives resided within the Greek Flood Zone before being eliminated by Guardians under the orders of the Blades of Joskaa, via Bounties. It would also become apparent that all of the Cabal operating within the Greek Flood Zone would defect the Red Legion due to the low number of commanders and death of Dominus Ghaul and Val Ca'uor beforehand, leaving them leaderless. The Crusades would conclude with the Jackals' leaders being eliminated and Seriviks being killed in a Raid over within their lair, leaving the Jackals broken and their threat diminished.

Years later, following the War of Salvation, the House of Lions would face new threats in the form of the House of Emperors and House of Vipers, but the conflict never fully reached towards the Greek Flood Zone, with only a few minor skirmishes from their scouts against the Lions.
