===Making a New Friend=== | |||
At one point during the current loop, Elsie had come across an space station registered to the [[Ishtar Collective]] en-route towards [[Pluto]]. Investigating the dilapidated platform revealed to her signs of new activity since the Collapse; Elise notice the handprint of a large unknown [[Cloud Strider|humanoid]] with traces of rippling silver and bits of a broken but familiar weapon. The Exo Stranger was then greeted to her surprise by the sudden appearance of a wayward [[Ghost]] named [[Tokki]], whom she almost shot with her pulse rifle. Elsie noticed the same silver encompassing Tokki's shell, which the Ghost had recently found thanks to a friend he had made on the station. It would be a young, juvenile pouka with iridescent fin-like wings and a set of six eyes that fondly greets the Exo Stranger. Reaching to caress the mysterious creature, Elsie immediately recalled an early childhood memory she had with her sister Ana and remembered offering to help; which was what the little pouka needed from her.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/8/23)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Plunder]] - Item Description: [[Speed Metal Shell#Lore|Speed Metal Shell]]''</ref> | |||
Having nicknamed the young then-unknown pouka Fish, Elsie had scanned the silver of Tokki's shell and identified as weaponized nanites which came from the broken gun barrel she found earlier; something which was unheard of in all her loops in time. Together with Fish and Tokki, the three would track for signs of the mysterious nanites to [[Ganymede]] where they uncovered yet another gun barrel that was empty but intact. Initially Elsie could not figure out how the barrel could propelled anything, but Fish would react by touching the barrel much to Elsie's displeasure. Doing so recalibrated the gun to recognize Elsie as its new user and extracts Tokki's silver nanites (much to his dismay) into the barrel to fabricate its ammunition, creating the [[Quicksilver Storm]]. Tokki was befuddled by the weapon's built-in systems to which he calls it [[Golden Age]] tech, only to be rebuffed by Elsie stating that they never had anything like this.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/8/23)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Plunder]] - Item Description: [[Quicksilver Storm#Lore|Quicksilver Storm]]''</ref> | |||
