Eventually, Humanity united and formed a settlement called the [[Last City]] underneath the Traveler and protected it against the threat they call "[[Fallen]]". The Devils gained infamy as Humans taught their children stories about them. At some point, [[Rezyl Azzir]] ventured out of the City and gained great enmity from the Fallen. A Devil [[Captain]] named [[Eksori]] ambushed Rezyl in an attempt to kill him to gain respect among his Devil brothers, however Rezyl was able to fend off the ambush and kill the Captain and his crew. | Eventually, Humanity united and formed a settlement called the [[Last City]] underneath the Traveler and protected it against the threat they call "[[Fallen]]".

Later, a group of Devils captured [[Felwinter Peak]] to learn more about SIVA, causing [[Lord Saladin]] to send the Guardians to investigate the observatory and secure the [[Iron Temple]] back in the Iron Lord's hands, and keep its contained secrets about SIVA away from the Fallen. To the great shock of [[The Ghost]], they encounter Sepiks who tried to establish a foothold on the mountain, emitting a strange energy signature and began regenerating its health, Lord Saladin quickly ordered them to kill Sepiks as he believed the Iron Temple doors weren't strong enough to hold the Prime back.<ref name="Mountain">'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/king-of-the-mountain King of the Mountain]''</ref> | Later, a group of Devils captured [[Felwinter Peak]] to learn more about SIVA, causing [[Lord Saladin]] to send the Guardians to investigate the observatory and secure the [[Iron Temple]] back in the Iron Lord's hands, and keep its contained secrets about SIVA away from the Fallen.

Sepiks | Sepiks is later found assaulting the Temple's entrance with SIVA enhanced blasts and protected by a SIVA immunity shield. After spotting the Guardians, it drops its shielding and teleports to engage them and summons the rest of the normal Devil reinforcements to defend it. The Guardians used the high ground against Sepiks and destroy the [[Servitor]], however, due to its regenerative abilities, Sepiks would restore itself and retreats back to the [[Cosmodrome]]. [[Shiro-4]] then detects multiple impacts to the Sector 17 section of the Cosmodrome wall and Saladin orders the Guardians to stop Sepiks from escaping as the Devils now know the location of SIVA.<ref name="Mountain"/> | ||

Shiro | With the Fallen [[Kell]]s gone, reorganising a military force was deemed almost impossible until the reemergence of Sepiks. Shiro wonders if they could use the sensor grid to see how far their operations stretched, but Saladin replies that the [[Fallen]] are irrelevant and finding Sepiks was the main priority to understanding the SIVA corruption.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/the-walls-come-down The Walls Come Down]''</ref> | ||
A [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|Strike]] | A [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|Strike]] is coordinated by Shiro to the breach past their defences and destroy the resurrected Prime Servitor holed up in the Devils Lair. The Splicers employ a laser grid with added encryption and deploy [[Dresiks, Splicer Baron]] and [[Splicer Walker]] against the Guardians. | ||
They then reach the lair and find Sepiks protected by a SIVA immunity shield which can only be dismantled by destroying the nearby [[SIVA Node]]s. Sepiks enters battle with Splicer reinforcements and blasts them with its upgraded SIVA Servitor Eye blasts. Throughout the battle, Sepiks teleports to generate different elemental Shields that require the use of [[Shock Cannon|Shock]], [[Scorch Cannon|Scorch]] and [[Null Cannon]] to disengage it. Despite its new tactical abilities, Sepiks was unable to fend off the assault and finally destroyed for good.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://youtu.be/Xrqy4xPbqt0 Sepiks Perfected Strike]''</ref> | |||

On arrival, Zavala noted how the Splicers are experimenting on nearby [[Hive]] and requested that the Guardians end this quickly before another SIVA outbreak occurs. As they approach the Dusk Warrens, Taniks encounters them near the lift to his Ketch, but is forced to retreat. Zavala is shocked that Taniks is able to talk since they believed the Splicers were only reanimating his body with SIVA. Ikora comments how Taniks maybe more machine than Fallen and perhaps he was never alive to begin with. With his Ketch still intact, a jamming field disrupts the Vanguard communications. | |||
After fighting through the Splicers, Hive and a [[Perfected Walker]], the Guardians manage to corner Taniks by his command bridge. Taniks is armed with his signature [[Scorch Cannon]] which is modified to allow [[Shock Cannon|Shock]] and [[Null Cannon|Void]] blasts. His SIVA abilities also generate a immunity shield where nearby SIVA crystals need to be destroyed in order to disable the shield. The Guardians prevent SIVA from restarting Taniks' mercenary operations and slew him. | |||
