Follow the path. You will eventually be met with a choice: follow the outside of the rock face or go inside. Both paths take you to the same place. Either way, once you make it to the other side, you will find a large group of Taken Phalanxes. Kill them all to get to the next encounter.

Here you arrive at the first boss, [[Vorgeth, the Boundless Hunger]], arguably the hardest part of the entire dungeon. This encounter has a special type of [[Taken Wizard]] known as the [[Keeper of Petitions]]. In order to do damage to Vorgeth, you will need to kill the Wizards and pick up the orbs they drop. You will receive a buff called ~~“Petitioner~~'s Mark" that stacks three times. There will also be a 45-second timer on the buff. If it reaches zero, the holder of the buff will die and you'll have to kill however many Wizards you've defeated again. Once you collect the fourth orb, the buff will change to ~~“Petitioner~~'s Burden,” which also has a 45-second timer. Extinguish the buff at one of the 4 pillars in the center of the room to start the damage phase. You'll have a short amount of time to deal as much damage to Vorgeth as possible. Once the damage phase is over, the Wizards and ads will respawn. Repeat this process as many times as it takes to kill Vorgeth, although it is certainly possible to do it in one phase. A recommended strategy for this encounter is to use a long-range primary weapon like a Scout Rifle or a Bow to kill all the ads in the room from the safe areas near the entrance. Once all of them are dead, bring all four Wizards to very low health without killing them. Then kill all four Wizards in rapid succession and extinguish the buff to start damaging Vorgeth. While immune, Vorgeth will attack with powerful eye blasts that knock you back and deal severe damage. During the damage phases, he attacks with swarms of Axion Darts. Shooting the darts will destroy them and keep you safe from damage. A recommended loadout for this encounter is any kinetic bow to kill ads, [[Telesto]] for the Keepers, and a grenade launcher with the Spike Grenades perk for boss damage. If you're running the dungeon with a group, have someone using [[Tractor Cannon]] and/or Well of Radiance or Ward of Dawn to help deal extra damage.

Once Vorgeth is dead, go through the door in the center. If this is your first time in the dungeon or you simply haven't done so before, interact with the statue. Next, jump down a series of platforms and ascend a gravitational lift. The path from there is fairly straightforward. If you get confused, just follow the enemies.
