"Well, Cayde-6, I made it, despite your directions."

"Ahhh, Commander Zavala, welcome. I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon."

"Yrah."

"Oh ye gods! My Darkness is ruined! But what if I were to purchase Fallen food and disguise it as my own cooking? Ho, ho, ho, delightfully roguish, Cayde."

"Ah?!"

Cayde-6 with his crazy explanations
The Commander's gonna need his medication
When he hears Cayde's lame exaggerations
There'll be trouble in the City tonight!

CAYDE-6!

"Commander, I was just, uh... stretching my calves on the Jumpship, Iso Minotauran exercise, care to join me?"

"Why is there a Darkness Zone coming out of your Solar System R-3TN-PLRMA, Cayde?"

"Auh? OH no, that isn't a Darkness Zone, that's steam—steam from the steamed Motes of Light we're having! Mmmmm, Steamed Motes!"

"Phew."

"Commander, I hope you're ready for mouthwatering Motes of Darkness!"

"I thought we're having steamed Motes—"

"Oh, no, I said steamed Light! That's what I call Motes of Darkness."

"You call Motes of Darkness... Light?"

"Yes! It's a dimensional dialect."

"Uh huh, eh, what dimension?"

"Uh... distributed Dreaming City?"

"Really. Well I'm from the Reef and I never heard anyone use the phrase steamed Light."

"Oh, not in the Reef, no, it's a Yang Liwei expression."

"I see."

"You know these Motes of Darkness are quite similar to the ones they have at the Drunken Noodle Ramen Bar."

"Ho, ho, ho, noooo! Patented Cayde-Motes, old Clovis recipe."

"For steamed Light?"

"Yes!"

"Yes, and you call them steamed Light despite the fact they're obviously Egregore."

"Y— Uh.. you know, the... One thing I should... Excuse me for one second."

"Of course."

"Well, that was wonderful. A good time was had by all. I'm pooped."

"Yes, I should be—GOOD LORD what is happening in there?!"

"The Collapse?"

"Uh—the Collapse?! At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of The Pale Heart, localized entirely within your Traveler?!"

"Yes!"

"May I see it?"

"No."

"Cayde! Neomuna's on fire!"

"No, Ikora Rey, it's just a Taken Blight."

"Well, Cayde-6, you're an odd Hunter Vanguard... but I must say, you steam a good Ghaul."

"Help! HELP!"
