Despite the victory in reclaiming the Last City, there was still much work to do in dealing with whats left of the Red Legion while also handling other threats like the Fallen House of Dusk and the Vex while learning more about the new Hive breeds and containing the Taken.

Such adventures lead the Guardians to disrupt Fallen raids, Cabal operations, Hive rituals and Vex efforts across the system while gathering supplies and intel from their enemies. The Guardians were able to also remove dangerous entities that would pose a threat to the system. Such entities included Protheon and the Hive Shrieker, [[Savathûn's Song]].

On Nessus, the Red Legion had been drilling into the [[Inverted Spire]], hoping to study and utilize [[Protheon, Modular Mind]] as weapon but the Vex responded violently, causing a warzone to break out near the drilling sights. The Vanguard learned of the legions efforts and sent in the Guardians to destroy Protheon before the Red Legion could capture the Vex Mind. After battling past Vex and Cabal forces, the Guardians descend into the Inverted Spire and face off against the Vex entity. Despite its firepower and altering the battlefield, the Guardians succeeded in destroying Protheon, depriving the Vex of an Axis Mind and the Cabal of a potential new weapon.
 
On Io, the Vanguard pin-point the Vex's machine conversion of the moon at [[The Pyramidion]], centered by Brakion, Genesis Mind. Not only do the Vanguard want to put a stop to the Vex's plans to turn Io into another [[machine world]] but also prevent any lingering Taken from corrupting the Genesis Mind into a powerful Taken entity. Storming the Pyramidion, the Guardians, guided by Asher Mir, evade Vex traps, Vex defenders and Taken enemies and enter a pit that leads to the Genesis Mind. Battling the Vex Mind, the Guardians succeed in destroying Brakion, hindering the Vex's efforts to convert Io and granting Asher Mir as sense of vengeance as it was Brakion who nearly converted him into a Vex machine.
 
On Titan, the Guardians worked with [[Sloane]] in stabilizing the New Pacific Archology's foundation to prevent it from sinking into the sea while also aiding in missions to drive the Fallen and Hive off. During said missions, the Guardians discover multiple Hive rituals with the purpose of sinking the Archology but were stopped by the Guardians at every turn. Sloane discovered a center point for these rituals deep beneath the Archology and sent in teams to investigate. All went dark and none returned. Worried, Sloane sends in the Guardians to look for the lost teams and find out what the Hive are up to. Breaching Hive defenses, the Guardians discovered strange crystal emanating Void Light which they find strange as only Guardians can generate Void Light. Traveling further, the Guardians make radio contact with a Guardian named Taeko-3 who was captured by the Hive and learn that the Hive are forcibly extracting Void Light from Guardians to create the crystals to power a powerful Shrieker, [[Savathun's Song]]. Though the Guardians were unable to save the captured Guardians, they were successful in destroying the Shrieker, avenging the fallen Guardians and preventing another Hive attempt to sink the [[New Pacific Archology]].


===Return of SIVA===
===Return of SIVA===
The death of [[Aksis, Archon Prime]] and the Devil Splicer's failure did not end [[SIVA]]'s expansion unfortunately. A cache of [[SIVA]] survived aboard the crashed [[Exodus Black]] ship on [[Nessus]], which was used by the [[Fallen]] [[House of Dusk]] on the planet for their own usage.

===Taken resurgence===
===Taken Resurgence===
In addition to Io, a remnant faction of [[Taken]] continued to operate within the [[European Dead Zone]], primarily near the Dark Forest, battling whatever Fallen, Cabal or Guardian force that gets near. A contingent of the Red Legion began to use Psions to siphon Taken energy to empower themselves which causes the notice of the Vanguard. Fighting the Cabal through the Dark Forest in the Deadzone, the Guardians corner the Colossus in command of their activities and destroy him. A larger Taken force gathers in the Deadzone under the command of a Taken Phalanx, [[Grask, the Consumed]]. After destroying each of the Taken's stronger forces, the Guardians were successful in defeating Grask, weakening the Taken in the Deadzone.

A larger Taken force gathered in the Deadzone under the command of a Taken Phalanx, [[Grask, the Consumed]]. The Taken, under clear directions, were tasked to corrupt the natural landscape and water supply within the Deadzone using Taken energy. Should they succeed, then the entire Deadzone would be rendered inhospitable, threatening the Farm. After destroying each of the Taken's stronger forces and removing the Blight's causing the infestations, the Guardians were successful in defeating Grask, weakening the Taken in the Deadzone but the Vanguard continue to question who is creating new Taken and directing them in Oryx' absence.
 
On Io, Ikora Rey's Hidden agents discovered Vex units interacting with the Taken, causing her to worry if the Taken are preparing for something. She sends the Guardians to investigate and find that the Taken are kidnapping Vex units all over the region using Blights. Tracking down the Taken through a cave system to a abandoned Cabal base, the Guardians face off against [[Ir Arok, Tongue of Quria]] and other entities directing the Taken's efforts. The Guardians chase discovered that the Taken are preparing to build a new Taken army to replenish their ranks lost in the Taken War using the Vex. Though Ir Arok escapes again, the Guardians track the Taken Knight down to an area in [[The Pyramidion]]. Corning the Knight, the Guardians succeed in defeating him but found that still a some of the Taken Vex traveled through a Blight portal, increasing the Taken's numbers but the Taken's efforts have been temporarily stopped.
