To release | To release Mara, Uldren required a combination of Light and Darkness to open the gateway for his sister to be free. Already infected with the Darkness, Uldren sought out the Light in the [[European Dead Zone]] from one of the Shards of the Traveler within the [[Blackened Forest]]. As he walked through the forest, he was set upon by dozens of Dregs from House Dusk, but they did not attack him and allowed him to pass through to the Shard. Reaching out, Uldren watched in fascination as the Shard reacted to him with Light, but Mara appeared and told him to be brave. Yelling in a rage, Uldren opened fire upon the Shard, blasting out a hole that allowed him to recover a Light infused crystal from within. Mara then warned him to move, and he was barely missed by a sniper bullet fired by Petra, who had been tracking him in hopes of ending his campaign of terror.<ref name="TM">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Activision Blizzard - [[Missions|Mission]]: [[The Machinist]]''</ref> | ||
However, the Guardian soon fought their way to the center and fought with the Voice of Riven, and despite the creature's strange powers, the Guardian succeeded in destroying it, releasing Uldren. The Guardian, with the Ace of Spades, approached a defeated Uldren who questioned where his sister was, but Petra | Returning to the Reef, Uldren learned that all of the Barons were dead at the hands of the Young Wolf with the exception of Fikrul. The last of the Barons met Uldren outside of [[The Watchtower]] alongside many of his soldiers. Thanking Fikrul, Uldren told him this was as far as he would go, but Fikrul wished to go in Uldren's stead into the Watchtower, warning that only Darkness and death lived within and that he could not bring Uldren back if he perished. Undeterred, Uldren asked Fikrul to go and avenge his murdered friends. Contemplating the chest which contained the Light crystal, Uldren was approached by Mara once more who stated that there was no time for fear. Uldren hesitantly said he was not afraid before opening the chest and taking the crystal. Mara sung his praises for all the torment he had been through before asking him to walk through hell one last time for her. Uldren agreed and passed through the portal into the Watchtower.<ref name="NLTS">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Activision Blizzard - [[Missions|Mission]]: [[Nothing Left to Say]]''</ref> | ||
Upon reaching the heart of the Watchtower that opened the gateway to the [[Dreaming City]], Uldren was encouraged by Mara once more to utilize the Light and Dark to free her. Reaching out to the portal, the Light crystal floated away from his hand while the Darkness corruption was drained from his body. Uldren fell to his knees before looking up to see Mara floating through the portal towards him, but she called him a poor devoted fool. Ignoring this, Uldren opened his arms to embrace her and closed his eyes, but when he opened them again he saw not Mara, but the [[Voice of Riven]] wrapping tentacles around his arms. Screaming in horror, Uldren attempted to draw the Ace of Spades, but the Voice knocked it from his grasp and devoured him.<ref name="NLTS"/> | |||
However, the Guardian soon fought their way to the center and fought with the Voice of Riven, and despite the creature's strange powers, the Guardian succeeded in destroying it, releasing Uldren. The Guardian, with the Ace of Spades, approached a defeated Uldren who questioned where his sister was, but Petra arrived and declared the Queen was not there and never had been. Realizing that this was to be a reckoning, Uldren prepared to accept his fate, but the Young Wolf's [[The Ghost|Ghost]] objected and pointed out that even with all the Prince had done he was already defeated. Petra countered that she knew what Cayde would do in this situation, and Uldren asked the Young Wolf what a notorious Guardian like Cayde would do and that since the Guardian now had the Ace of Spades they would get the last word. Turning to Petra, Uldren declared that everything he had done had been for Mara. Chuckling, Uldren noted how thin the line between the Light and Dark was before questioning the Young Wolf on if they knew upon which side they fell. The Young Wolf hesitated for a moment before raising the Ace once more and nodding. Realizing his end was coming, Uldren closed his eyes and accepted his fate as he was executed for his crimes against the Reef and Vanguard.<ref name="NLTS"/> | |||
