Transcript
Ghost: Eris says throne worlds are kingdoms of thought, built according to the desires of the creator.

Ghost: I suppose Savathûn desired a throne world made of Light. Everything here is imbued with it.

Ghost: What's strange to me is that she's vulnerable here. Why would she just let us walk in?

Ghost: We need a clue of how she stole the Light.


 * The Guardian defeats Lucent Hive, led by a Lightbearer Knight.

Fynch: Hey, listen closely. You‘re not supposed to be here! Guardians aren't safe in a place like this.

Ghost: Who is this?

Fynch: Well, that's need to know, pal, and you don't. Uh… need to know, I mean.

Fynch: Look, just get out, before Savathûn and her light-up goons realize you're here!

Ghost: Are you with the Vanguard?

Ghost: Hello?

Ghost: We lost him. I can trace the signal.

Ghost: Any lead's a good lead when you have no leads…


 * The Guardian defeats two Knights. The gate does not open.

Ghost: We're blocked… but I'm picking up more of that physic energy over there.


 * The Guardian interacts with Deepsight. Platforms are revealed.

Ghost: How did you do that? It’s like you created those platforms out of thin air.


 * The Guardian goes across the platforms. They enter a dark part of the fortress.


 * The Guardian encounters Lucent Hive.


 * The Guardian interacts with Despsight. Platforms are revealed.


 * The Guardian crosses the platforms.


 * Hive statue revealed by Deepsight points to a door.

Ghost: That, up there-I think that door will lead us out. We just need a way up.


 * The Guardian enters another part of the fortress.

Ghost: I'm sensing more physic energy nearby. It might help us find our way out of here.


 * The Guardian interacts with Deepsight. Platforms are revealed.


 * The Guardian crosses the platforms and enter another part of the fortress.


 * They exit the fortress


 * The Guardian defeats Lucent Hive

Fynch: Hey, hey, hey! You're stirring up the Hive. This is exactly why I told you to leave.

Ghost: What do you know about Hive using the Light?

Fynch: That's why you're here?

Ghost: That's “need to know”.

Fynch: Yeah, yeah.

Fynch: Look, all right, I really shouldn't be doing this, but come meet me outside the fortress. Just be discreet, all right?


 * The Guardian must me up with this voice.


 * The Guardian enters the Florescent Canal.


 * The Guardian encounters and defeats Lucent Hive.


 * The Guardian defeats Blistered Knight.

Ghost: The signal is coming from beyond that gate. We have to get it open.


 * Darkness Zone. Respawning Restricted.


 * The Guardian steps on tablet.

Fynch: Hey! What did you do! Oh, you triggered the alarm! The Hive are going to be all over you!


 * Lucent Hive are summoned and confront the Guardian.

Fynch: What happened to being discreet?

Ghost: We're trying to open the gate!

Fynch: Look, look, just-try to stay alive, all right? Once the gate's open, just make a run for it.


 * Objective completed

Ghost: Gate's open. Let's go!

Ghost: Between you and me, I don't think this guy we've been talking to is working for the Vanguard.

Ghost: I guess it could be a rogue Hidden agent… or a lost Guardian. But maybe it's just Savathûn, disguising her voice.

Ghost: Any lead's a good lead.


 * The Guardian enters the Quagmire and spot and engages with warring Lucent Hive and Scorn.

Ghost: Scorn ahead. What are they doing here? They don't go anywhere without being directed.


 * Two Barrier Guards appear and are defeated.


 * A Lightbearer Wizard appears

Ghost: Another Hive wielding the Light, Eyes up, Guardian!


 * Two Barrier Guards appear.


 * The Guardian defeats the Lightbearer Wizard and the Barrier Guards.

Ghost: Not sure I'll ever get used to seeing Ghosts serving the Hive.

Ghost: All Ghosts where created after the Collapse. The Traveler released us just before it went dormant.

Ghost: These Ghosts had thousands of opportunities to choose a Guardian, and they passed right over humanity and chose our enemy instead.

Ghost: I can't forgive that.


 * They meet up with this voice, who is revealed to be a Hive Ghost with a dead Lightbearer Hive nearby.

Ghost: You? You brought us here?

Fynch: Hey, take it easy!

Fynch: Just… let me explain.
