Forum:The Final Shape

"The line between Light and Darkness may have been broken, but you are not. All it did was make you stronger. Show the Darkness the true power of the Light."

- Ikora Rey to The Guardian

The Final Shape, referred to by certain anime enthusiasts as Paradox, is the eighth expansion of Destiny 2 and twelfth expansion of the Destiny franchise.

The expansion's story centers around The Guardian and their revenge-driven fight to avenge the deaths of numerous civilians and protectors, including Zavala, by bringing an end to the Black Fleet and its army of dark forces who had entered the Solar System in a diabolical plan to reshape the universe in its own dark image. Along the way, the game's story also expands upon Mallory Bertha, the daughter of Hendrick Yor and Kaguya Narusaka; the Fallen House of Flame and Fireteam Infernium; the formation of a new Consensus within the frontiers of a new sanctuary; the arrivals of newly-risen Guardians, including Hannah Ciel; and the birth of a new power that has emerged within the heart of Deimos.

While the expansion and its contents themselves are available to all players for free, buying the expansion will also grant them access to its second Campaign, Knights and Dragons, which centers around the Young Wolf working alongside Aqua, the Goddess of Water, to help the Vanguard uncover the truth about how the Dragon Protector really died.

Description
LONG LIVE EVIL.

After the Guardian's triumph over the last line of threats, including the Hive Witch Queen Savathûn, the allies of humanity are still reeling from the effects of the Pyramids' arrival, but now their world has come under attack by a new dark force unlike anything they had ever faced, and this time, it has a new name: The Black Swordsman, who now leads a dark army of fallen Guardians and enemy forces that have called upon the Darkness and destroyed the Last City in a diabolical plan to enshroud the universe. Work with the Vanguard remnants, House of Flame, Empress Caiatl's forces, Eris Morn, Kayla Heartfilia, and Mal to avenge Zavala's death and prevent the Black Fleet from casting humanity into an age of darkness for good. Become a slayer of our worst nightmares.

OVERCOME THE DARKEST NIGHT.

With the rise of the Darkness across the universe due to the end of the Traveler, the Guardians are scattered and humanity is nearer to extinction than ever before.

With the Darkness closing in and this new threat posing a danger never seen before, how will the Guardians fight back against the Darkness?
