The Stranger | Although the Exo Stranger's primary concern was the Vex, her the [[Hive]] infesting [[Earth]]'s moon [[Moon|Luna]] caught her attention after she accidently transmitted herself to the moon and noticed their presence. She risked several more visits to Luna to observe them, once inadvertently arriving within their tunnels and being forced to fight to the surface, and deduced that although they seemed feral in many aspects they had a keen intelligence and complex intentions. The Stranger speculated that the Hive and Vex had common enemies and a connection to the [[Darkness]]. This belief was reinforced when a [[Fireteam]] of [[Guardian]]s halted a Hive ritual she had planned to observe, which she learned was in fact ripping the Light away from the Traveler, similar to the [[Black Garden]]. After confirming this by traveling back to before the ritual was halted, a new figure caught her interest: a new [[The Guardian|Guardian]] and their [[The Ghost|Ghost]] who helped halt the ritual and mentioned [[Venus]]. The Stranger traveled back once more to watch as they discovered the reemergence of the Hive on the Moon outside the [[Temple of Crota]], but noted no indication of Vex presence or activity to warrant the mention of Venus.<ref name="Exo 2">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/The_Exo_Stranger#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Exo_Stranger_2|Ghost Fragment: The Exo Stranger 2]]''</ref> | ||
Returning to her observations of the Hive, she concluded that the conflicts between the Guardians and Hive indicated the aliens were planning on an invasion of Earth. The Stranger concluded that Luna was the Hive's "[[Oversoul Throne|black heart]]" and primary breeding ground in the system and that they needed to be stopped to prevent them from bringing about the same dark end the Vex were working towards. Some time later, the Stranger traveled back further to observe the Ghost find the Guardian and resurrect them and subsequent acquisition of a [[Jumpship]] in the [[Cosmodrome]] of [[Old Russia]]. She became interested in the presence of the [[Fallen]] within the region as well, wondering what they sought to find in its broken tech and landscape.<ref name="Exo 2"/><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[A Guardian Rises]]''</ref> With her observations complete, the Stranger traveled back to when she had first observed the Guardian, only this time allowing them to notice her presence, as she believed them to be interesting and unlikely to fail where others had and wished to recruit them against the Hive, Vex, and Darkness.<ref name="Exo 2"/><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Dark Beyond]]''</ref> | |||

Following the Stranger's coordinates, the Guardian travels to the [[Ishtar Sink]] on [[Venus]], where they are ambushed by alien cyborgs known as the [[Vex]]. After reactivating an extensive series of sensors established by other Guardians to track these machines, the Guardian meets with the Exo Stranger in the [[Ishtar Academy]]. There, she informs them of the [[Black Garden]], the birthplace of the Vex, and a powerful entity responsible for keeping the [[Traveler]] in a state of catatonia. She explains to them that the only way to heal the Traveler is to destroy the heart in the Black Garden.<ref name = "Destiny: Official E3 Gameplay Experience Trailer">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLw2gyMFmq40oO00fgBLOsytpbUkNaNypj&v=LIxxsw7TNd4&feature=player_detailpage ''Destiny: Official E3 Gameplay Experience Trailer'']</ref><ref name="Call"/> | Following the Stranger's coordinates, the Guardian travels to the [[Ishtar Sink]] on [[Venus]], where they are ambushed by alien cyborgs known as the [[Vex]].
