'''Siren Song''' is an [[Adventure]] taking place on [[Titan (moon)|Titan]]. It is unlocked after completing ''[[Utopia]]'' at the same time as the adventure ''[[Deathless]]'', and is effectively a prelude to the [[strike]] [[Savathûn's Song (strike)|Savathûn's Song]]

Gravitational Waves are being produced by Hive magic and are destabilising the [[New Pacific Arcology|Arcology]]. To counteract this the player tracks the waves back to their source in a Hive Summoning Ritual, possibly for the "deceased" [[Ubara, Hive Prince]], which they subsequently interrupt.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This adventure chronologically precedes [[Savathûn's Song (strike)|Savathûn's Song]] and follows on from the [[Hope|first mission]] on Titan in which the Hive Prince [[Ubara, Hive Prince|Ubara]] is slain by the Guardian, with all three events likely being interrelated.
*Ubara
**There are few named princes among the Hive, and consequently each Prince is of high rank, with other examples being [[Crota]], the son of [[Oryx]]; [[Alak-Hul]], the adoptive son of [[Oryx]] and [[Malok, Pride of Oryx]], a son of [[Savathun]], both of whom tried but failed to become a prince after Oryx's death; as well as the [[Swarm Princes]] and their lord and master [[Sardon, Fist of Crota]]. Given the significance of his rank, if Ubara survived his death by having an [[Ascendant Realm]], then it would have been possible to summon him back in exactly the same manner as Crota was to be returned to life during [[the Wakening]] in Destiny 1.
**If this were the case it would explain the elaborated string of summoning rituals defeated during ''Siren Song'' as the crystal at the end of the adventure may be alike to the crystal which contained Crota's soul and was being used to return him to life, and have been prepared in order to resurrect Prince Ubara, though this is prevented by the player's actions to interrupt the rituals, destroy the shrines, and the steal the crystal. With the crystral stolen, if Ubara is in the Ascendant Realm and that was indeed his soul crystal, then he may be trapped there indefinitely.
**If Prince Ubara was a son of [[Savathun]] then her reaction, both emotional and pragmatic due to the Ubara's death and the severance of her son's tithe, would be similar to Oryx's upon the death of Crota, and she would be forced to respond, even personally. This may be the motive for Savathun's attempted summoning in [[Savathûn's Song (strike)|Savathûn's Song]].
*As a reward for completing the adventure, the player receives [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/songbreaker-grips?highlight=songbreaker Songbreaker Grips], [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/songbreaker-gauntlets?highlight=songbreaker Gauntlet's] or [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/songbreaker-gloves?highlight=songbreaker Gloves] depending on their class, identifying what happened to the crystal after Holliday got a hold of it:
::::"They're powered by that Hive rock you got me! Sloane gave me permission once I explained the voltmeter readings." —Amanda Holliday
*The Hive Crystal is situated underneath a structure identical to the one that housed the CPU taken by the player earlier during the mission [[Utopia]]. Whether this is a significant detail regarding the summoning ritual is unknown, and it more likely is simply an indicator of the room's former purpose.
