Like most [[Exo]], Cayde remembers little about his past before the [[Collapse]]. However, he remembers enough to provide substantial information, albeit he admits the order is out of sync. Cayde used to be a [[human]] soldier with a large debt over his head, when he was approached by [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]] to have his debt removed. The job offer itself isn't explicitly stated, but what Cayde remembers next is coming to [[Europa]] where he was converted into an Exo. Cayde's Letter Fragments in ''Destiny 2'' reveal that Cayde had a wife and a son whom he nicknamed "Ace", he threw his life away gambling, and that his only means of escape was to sell himself to Clovis Bray's Exo program. Next, he remembers being assigned as a security officer to the [[Ishtar Collective]], where his job was to look after Dr. [[Maya Sundaresh]]. Though he wished to get to know her better, she barely noticed him. Afterwards, he remembers being restrained by a shadowy creature on a destroyed world, followed by another memory which he describes as not his own.<ref>Bungie (2015-9-17) Destiny: The Taken King Collector's Edition, [[Cayde's Treasure Island Book|Modified Treasure Island Book]].</ref> He was found with a journal containing Ace's name on his person after being revived by his [[Ghost]], and that Cayde kept writing to him despite not remembering him and that his son was long dead. | Like most [[Exo]], Cayde remembers little about his past before the [[Collapse]].

While searching for a [[Hive]] Shrine on the [[Moon]], Cayde found a Hive structure and entered it. Inside, he encountered a huge horde of Hive consisting of [[Thrall]]s, [[Knight]]s, and [[Wizard]]s and promptly retreated. The Hive pursued him to the surface, and Cayde cut down many Thrall before running out of ammo for his machine gun. Taking cover behind a crashed Phaeton, Cayde spotted a [[Fallen]] Baron of the [[House of Exile]] fighting the Hive as well. The Hive pushed back both Cayde and the Baron onto a hill with an old interferometry array on top of it. Fighting together, the two killed most of the Hive, and Cayde eventually climbed the array to get an angle on the Wizards and saw the Baron kill a Knight but lose her blades in the process. From his perch, Cayde exhausted the rest of his ammo, but only one Wizard and a line of Thrall remained. After climbing back down, Cayde saw the Baron was badly wounded and he wondered how many people she had murdered. The Baron then tossed her last [[Shock Pistol]] to Cayde, but when he went to grab it she attempted to stab him. However, she was slow and Cayde easily dodged her, and he proceeded to break her arms and slit her throat. Cayde wondered if the Baron had truly wanted to kill him or if she did that to make his choice about ending her easier. Cayde proceeded to kill the last of the Hive, using the Shock Pistol to kill several of the Thrall.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Ghost_Fragment:_Fallen|Ghost Fragment: Fallen]]''</ref> | While searching for a [[Hive]] Shrine on the [[Moon]], Cayde found a Hive structure and entered it.
