Once a noble hero, Rezyl faced against the [[Hive]] [[Wizard]] [[Xyor, the Unwed|Xyor, the Blessed]] and her [[Knight]] familiar at the [[Hellmouth]].<ref name="Legends and Mysteries: Rezyl Azzir">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends & Mysteries#Legends and Mysteries: Rezyl Azzir|Legends and Mysteries: Rezyl Azzir]]''</ref> Having been locked in battle for days with the Hive, the [[Titan (class)|Titan]] took down the Knight with Rose and successfully escaped the Hellmouth. He would then graft his Hand Cannon with the Hive's fragmented chitin bones as a trophy; not knowing that Xyor's whispers would echo from them as they corrupted Rezyl's mind and his hand cannon; which became reborn as a Weapon of Sorrow known as Thorn.<ref name="The Triumphant Fall">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends & Mysteries#Legends and Mysteries: Rezyl Azzir - The Triumphant Fall|Legends and Mysteries: Rezyl Azzir - The Triumphant Fall]]''</ref> | ||
Rezyl Azzir eventually give into to the boness' whispers afterward, becoming [[Dredgen Yor]] after looking to the [[Hive]] to try finding more ways to defeat the [[Darkness]].

After Dredgen Yor's fall, cleansed replicas of the Thorn were created by the [[Shadows of Yor]], a group of Guardians who idolize the fallen Guardian. Their activity raised enough concern for [[Shin Malphur]], Yor's killer, to take up arms against the Shadows. A year after the Red War, a Shadow of Yor known as [[Callum Sol]] was found and killed by Shin. [[The Guardian|The Young Wolf]] would find the spot of the Shadow's final death, retrieving weapon parts from his remains for [[The Drifter (character)|The Drifter]] to utilize to create a new replica of Thorn known as [[Malfeasance]]. | After Dredgen Yor's fall, cleansed replicas of the Thorn were created by the [[Shadows of Yor]], a group of Guardians who idolize the fallen Guardian.

The legend of Thorn is bound to the rise and fall of Dredgen Yor, a Guardian whose name is remembered with disgust and shame. The weapon was thought destroyed... but rumors of its existence still haunt the wilds. | The legend of Thorn is bound to the rise and fall of Dredgen Yor, a Guardian whose name is remembered with disgust and shame.
