Transcript

 * Cayde-6: Yello. Cayde speaking. Oh, hang on, someone left a note here. "EDZ forest. Taken energy, question mark. Red Legion... Brian." ...who's Brian?
 * Ikora Rey: Red Legion Psions. Guardian, we've heard disturbing reports from your area. They tell of Cabal with new powers.
 * Ghost: That Psion... is it shielding that Centurion?
 * Ikora: Shielding? Then they are harnessing the energy of the Taken. But how?
 * Ghost: Red Legion Psions are bad enough. But if they really have Taken powers?
 * Cayde: Since when did Cabal and Taken start sharing toys, anyway?
 * Ikora: We can figure out the connection later. For now, we must uncover the source of this energy.
 * Ghost: No good. Taken energy readings are increasing. I bet it's spreading to Psions all over the area.
 * Ikora: If that's true, it could bring a plague of shadow beyond our imagining.
 * Cayde: Ikora, you're freaking them out.
 * Ghost: Got it! I pulled location data from that Centurion. But we have to go... into the forest.
 * Cayde: You sure about that, buddy? Don't wanna get, you know, eaten by a creepy Taken shadow tree.
 * Ikora: Cayde, what exactly happened to you on Nessus?
 * Cayde: They get eaten yet?
 * Ikora: No, they did not "get eaten yet". But use caution. We don't know what's waiting in that forest.
 * Cayde: My Glimmer's on something big and Taken.
 * Ikora: That may be the safest bet you've made in years.
 * Ghost: That portal connects to the forest. The Psions found a way to force it open!
 * Cayde: Well, it was nice knowing you.
 * Ikora: Cayde.
 * Ghost: Did you see that? He got stunned when we took out his Psion.
 * Ikora: Severing their bond must cause a backlash to the host. Interesting.
 * Cayde: Am I the only one who has no idea what any of you are talking about?
 * Ikora: Yes.
 * Ghost: Okay, there are a lot more Cabal than I was expecting.
 * Cayde: Well, they may not like you trespassing in their secret magic fort.
 * Ghost: Big Taken. Taken Cabal! Big... Taken Cabal!
 * Ikora: A Colossus. Of course. You must destroy it.
 * Ghost: Working on it!
 * Ghost: Whew! We did it. They're all gone.
 * Cayde: Well that'll set the Legion back a ways. Serves 'em right for messing with things they don't understand.
 * Ikora: Which is your area of expertise, after all. As for you, Guardian: well done. If that brute had gotten loose with the Psions, there may have been no stopping it.
 * Cayde: And then I couldn't have collected on that bet! Big and Taken. Told you.

Trivia

 * The Psions are learned how to use Taken energy to power up their troops with an unbreakable shield around them.
