*'''[[Eris Morn]]''': Six of us went down into that pit. I was vain enough to believe we could defeat [[Crota]]. But the [[Hive]] caught his soul before we could destroy him. And then there was only death. We failed. You cannot. Destroy the Soul of Crota.

Another whisper is heard in the darkness, and a [[Wizard]]'s [[Vestige]] appears on the ground, illuminating a path.''

''Fighting on, the Guardian eventually encounters a [[Hallowed Ogre]]. The Guardian kills it, and ascends a small incline. They discover a very large cavern, flooded with water and filled with Hive. An enormous green crystal sits in the middle of the cave, four [[Waker of Crota|Wakers of Crota]] surrounding it, deep in concentrated prayer. Four Knights are crouched on a bridge, kneeling before the Soul of Crota.''

''The Guardian quickly takes action, killing the Knights while they are distracted. The Wizards notice the Guardian's presence and attack, summoning infantry assistance before directly attacking. The Guardian kills them with great effort. Upon closer inspection, a horrifying image shines through the crystal; Crota himself is watching the Guardian's every move.''

''The Soul of Crota lifts from the ground and starts to spin. Pieces of debris spin in a circle around it, attempting to block the Guardian's attacks. Dozens more Hive are summoned,and the crystal begins to fire green bolts of energy at the Guardian as well. The Guardian continues attacking the Soul of Crota as it spins madly, even faster than before. Against the overwhelming odds, the Guardian finally destroys the crystal, which sparks and continues spinning into oblivion. An eerie silence falls over the now empty cavern.''

*'''Eris''': Crota's soul is banished. You have given me the gift of vengeance. I thank you... and even if they don't know it yet... [[The City]] thanks you.
