Destiny: Difference between revisions

===The Dark Below===

[[Eris Morn]], the last survivor of a fireteam to stop the Hive god [[Crota]], is looking for Guardians to help her. The Hive's return to Earth is but a prelude to the return of Crota, whom his followers are attempting to awaken. Eris sends the player into the Cosmodrome to stop the invaders, especially after they attempt to kill Rasputin. She then sends the player to stop the Hive's awakening ritual on the Moon. After eliminating Crota's generals, the player finishes off Crota himself in his netherworld, the [[Oversoul Throne]], deep within the Hellmouth.

===House of Wolves===

The Reef is embroiled in civil war as the [[House of Wolves]], a Fallen house whom the [[Queen]] had conquered, are now in open rebellion. Their leader, [[Skolas]], has declared himself the Kell of Kells and wishes to unite the Fallen under his banner. The Queen has summoned the Guardians to aid her in ending the rebellion, in return for the Reef's treasures. The player is aided by [[Petra Venj]] and [[Variks, The Loyal]], with whom they search for Skolas and put a stop to his plans. After failing to seize control of the House of Devils and [[House of Kings]], Skolas instead attempts to seize control of the Vault of Glass and the Vex technology within. The player finally captures him atop the Citadel, stopping him from summoning his entire House through the Vex's time portals. Skolas is sent back to the [[Prison of Elders]], where he's finished off once and for all.

===The Taken King===

[[Oryx]], the father of Crota, has sent his Hive fleet to avenge his fallen son. Using his terrible power, Oryx creates a new army called the [[Taken]], and lays siege to the entire solar system.  The [[Awoken]] fleet attempt to stop him before he can enter the Inner System, but they are utterly destroyed. He then starts Taking the Cabal stationed on [[Phobos]], which catches the Vanguard's attention. Responding to a distress signal, the player is sent to investigate. Upon seeing the devastation, the player is confronted by a vision of Oryx, who tells the player that he is there to pay back humanity for his son's death. Realizing the threat that laid before them, [[Cayde-6]] crafts a plan with the player to sneak aboard Oryx's [[Dreadnaught]]. Though they are successful, they cannot enter Oryx's inner sanctum until the player becomes Ascendant; Eris helps the player recover the last fragments of Crota's Soul, allowing entry into Oryx's chambers, where they duel.  

===Rise of Iron===

The Fallen [[House of Devils]], while looting ancient tombs from the [[Golden Age]], accidentally unearth a self replicating nano-technology plague known as [[SIVA]] within the depths of the Old Cosmodrome. This plague mutates the Devils into powerful machine gods which collapsed [[The Wall]] in Old Russia, prompting [[Lord Saladin]], the last of the [[Iron Lords]], to personally lead the Guardians in a final stand against the plague, raising a new generation of Iron Lords to guard the [[Last City]] once more.
