The entrance to the Black Garden, located on [[Mars]], lies behind thick [[Cabal]] defenses. After successfully restoring the Gate Lord's eye using dormant Vex technology, the Guardian enters the Black Garden, a strange Vex realm outside of normal spacetime. At its center is the Black Heart, an abomination whom the Vex worship and seek to use to bend reality to their will. The Guardian kills its protectors, the [[Sol Progeny]], destroying the Heart and freeing the Black Garden from Vex control.

=== Return of the Crota, Son of Oryx ===
[[Eris Morn]], the last survivor of a fireteam who went to the '''Moon''' to stop the Hive god [[Crota]], is looking for Guardians to help her. The Hive's return to Earth is but a prelude to the return of Crota, whom his followers are attempting to awaken. Eris sends the player into the Cosmodrome to stop the invaders, especially after they attempt to kill Rasputin. She then sends the player to stop the Hive's awakening ritual on the Moon. After eliminating Crota's generals, the player finishes off Crota himself in his netherworld, the [[Oversoul Throne]], deep within the Hellmouth.

=== The Taken War ===
=== The Taken War ===
[[Oryx]], the father of Crota, has come with his Hive fleet to avenge his fallen son. Using his terrible power, Oryx creates a new army called the [[Taken]], and lays siege to the entire solar system.  The [[Awoken]] fleet lead by '''Queen Mara Sov''' attempt to stop him before he can enter the Inner System, but they are utterly destroyed. He then starts '''Taking''' the Cabal stationed on [[Phobos]] who send out a distress signal, which catches the Vanguard's attention. Responding to the distress signal, the player is sent to investigate. Upon seeing the devastation, the player is confronted by a vision of Oryx, who tells the player that he is there to pay back humanity for his son's death. Realizing the threat that laid before them, [[Cayde-6]] crafts a plan with the player to sneak aboard Oryx's [[Dreadnaught]]. Though they are successful, they cannot enter Oryx's inner sanctum until the player becomes [[Ascendant Hive|Ascendant]]; Eris helps the player recover the last fragments of Crota's Soul, allowing entry into Oryx's chambers, where they duel. Though Oryx's physical form was defeated, he retreated even further into the ship, recovering his strength. Meanwhile, the Guardians work towards [[Taken War|pushing the Taken out of the system]]. Once Oryx's lieutenants, the [[Court of Oryx]], have been defeated the Guardians push deeper into the Dreadnaught to seek out Oryx within his [[Ascendant realm]]. There, he confronted the Fireteam of Guardians sent to kill him once and for all with his full might, even pulling them into a Darkness dimension. But in the end, using Light [[Warpriest|stolen]] [[Golgoroth|from]] [[Light-Eater Ogre|his]] [[Light-Eater Knight|pawns]], Oryx was slain permanently.

The Fallen [[House of Devils]], while looting ancient tombs from the [[Golden Age]], accidentally unearth a self replicating nano-technology plague known as [[SIVA]] within the depths of the Old Cosmodrome. This plague mutates the Devils into powerful machine gods which collapsed [[The Wall]] in Old Russia, prompting [[Lord Saladin]], the last of the [[Iron Lords]], to leave his post as the Handler of the [[Iron Banner]] and personally lead the Guardians in a final stand against the plague, raising a new generation of Iron Lords to guard the [[Last City]].
