Vanguard Transmissions to Zavala

First Message from Osiris

Message #1

  • Zavala. This is Osiris. I promised you updates, so... here we are.
  • There's no much to tell. Mercury, Mars, Io, and Titan are gone.
  • With that in mind, I wanted to give you the gift of perspective. I am sending you an artifact. Long kept in the care of my... followers.
  • It is of Hive origin: a fang of Xivu Arath, sister to the Taken King, Oryx.
  • The Traveler may have reformed, but until it acts, understanding the Darkness is our best chance of defeating it.
  • Perhaps in this relic, there is a real, tangible hope. Not just empty promises.

Second Message from Osiris

Message #2

  • I needed to put some distance between myself and Earth. [sighs] So I headed to the Dreaming City.
  • The city itself is still caught in its curse loop. I have doubts we'll ever be able to undo the damage the Taken caused here.
  • Unsurprisingly, Petra remains useless. She doesn't know where her Queen is, and that leaves us with fewer allies.
  • Oh, and, uh... let Saint know I found the letter he hid in my ship. Tell him – no, never mind. I'll tell him myself.

Third Message from Osiris

Message #3

  • I came back to the Tower, but you were in a meeting with Ikora, so I went to see how Ana's work with Rasputin is progressing.
  • She's made several failed attempts at importing his consciousness into the body of a dead Exo.
  • Ana has a brilliant mind, but she's squandering herself trying to salvage the remains of that Golden Age tyrant.
  • She should put her talents towards something more... productive.
  • Maybe I'm just bitter.

Fourth Message from Osiris

Message #4

  • Hmm. The orbital path of Nessus has changed. Likely due to the sudden disappearance of the Leviathan.
  • I could not find any evidence of long-range scans. But remnants of the Cabal still linger.
  • According to the intercepted transmissions, Calus's daughter, Caiatl, is trying to rally what's left of the Red Legion.
  • As if we didn't have enough problems.

Fifth Message from Osiris

Message #5

  • I'd gone to the Reef, hoping to find insight into Caiatl's agenda among the Cabal there. Instead, I found something else.
  • There's a... new strange presence here. It grows as an organic technology, like a small tower.
  • There were Cabal gathered around it, enraptured by something I could not perceive. Perhaps their own desperation — or madness.
  • A long-range scan of the structure was inconclusive, save for confirming it was of Hive origin.
  • I need to determine whether it was just delusion attracting the Cabal... or something more.

Sixth Message from Osiris

Message #6

  • Every day, there is some new horror.
  • I stayed in the Reef to further observe those Hive-enraptured Cabal. They did not rest – simply spent hours kneeling before the structure.
  • Sometimes they screamed. Other times they cried, but mostly, they were just... silent.
  • They left come morning, wandering out on the fringes of the Shore.
  • I decided to examine the structure more closely, and, uh... I'm certain I... I heard something. Calling to me. Beckoning.
  • Sagira convinced me not to perform any further investigation for the time being.

Seventh Message from Osiris

Message #7

  • It's dark out here. I sometimes forget how isolating deep space is. I'm on my way back to Earth, but it will be at least one more day.
  • I wonder how Saint is doing in my absence. I worry about him. About how well he's adjusting. How he blames himself for all this.
  • He has such a big heart... Perhaps if we hadn't meddled with history, non of this would have happened?

Eighth Message from Osiris

Message #8

  • Sagira initiated a long-range scan as we were entering Earth's orbit, looking for signs of that same Hive structure we discovered at the Reef.
  • Call it intuition. There are more of them on the Moon.
  • I went to speak with Eris, to seek her counsel as an expert on the Hive's witchcraft. But I could not find her.
  • Perhaps you know where she is?

Ninth Message from Osiris

Message #9

  • I just had the most interesting conversation with our friend, Spider — back out in the Reef.
  • Not only did he already know about these Hive structures, but he's found others on the Tangled Shore that my scanners missed.
  • He claims some of his agents have gone missing, and there are rumors of disappearance among the houseless Fallen as well.
  • Sagira patched into local Cabal communications. Caiatl's scouts noted unsettling discoveries among the Red Legion stranded in the system.
  • Entire encampments abandoned. Evidence of internal conflict, mass graves. Whatever is going on with these Hive towers... we need an answer.
  • I'm going to Saturn. I may have a way to find it within the derelict hulk of Oryx's Dreadnaught.
  • Tell Saint he's missed.

Tenth Message from Osiris

Message #10

  • It was a success. I was able to reverse engineer the Hive's organic communications systems within the Dreadnaught.
  • I directly interfaced with their... network of collective consciousness.
  • The things I learned, Zavala. The things I learned. The Hive is fractured, shattered, turned on itself.
  • The Black Fleet intends to punish Savathûn for interfering with its efforts to communicate with us.
  • No one knows where the Witch Queen is, not even her own court. And now Xivu Arath is using this opportunity to consolidate her power.
  • I will return to the Reef tomorrow to confer once more with Spider. He says he has news for me.

Eleventh Message from Osiris

Message #11

  • As distasteful as Spider may be, his information network is vast and... surprisingly well researched.
  • According to his people, the Hive structures are called cryptoliths. They spread like the roots of a tree and bore into our dimension.
  • No word yet on their point of origin. Spider claims to have his best man on it, but... Sagira and I have our own suspicions.

Twelfth Message from Osiris

Message #12

  • Zavala, I am presently en route to the Moon to search for more information on the cryptoliths.
  • Sagira and I are going to touch down and investigate.

Thirteenth Message from Mara Sov

Message #13

  • To all corners of the system… I've emptied the armories on the fringe. Sent Corsair warship fleets. Deployed Harbingers.
  • And yet… the Black Fleetpersists. I know what it's taken from you.
  • Petra… I've been away too long, and for that, I apologize.
  • Your compassion and leadership have been a boon to me — and our people. This all started with the Dreaming City. I shall return to finish it.
  • [sighs] Savathûn will be waiting.

Fourteen Message from Osiris

Message #14

  • If anyone is listening, I... Sagira is... She sacrificed herself to save me. From them. From the Hive.
  • I'm tracking the creature responsible for Sagira's death. I will find it. I will end it.
  • Zavala... I need you to send the Young Wolf to the following coordinates. I won't wait!
