Taken War: Difference between revisions

As the Vanguard debated on how to fight back against Oryx, [[Eris Morn]] warned [[Commander Zavala]] that the Taken were unlike any foe they had faced before, and that Oryx's army would only grow unless he's stopped. [[Cayde-6]], meanwhile developed a secret plan to board the Dreadnaught, using stealth technology he stole from [[Rasputin]]. After helping the Guardian outfit Eris' ship, the Guardian managed to slip onto the Dreadanught and establish a beachhead. They discovered that Oryx was waiting behind a rupture, but only an ascendant Hive could enter the rupture. To become ascendant, the player needed to gather Crota's essence; by collecting a shard of crystal from the Chamber of Night, and using the same stealth technology from Rasputin, the Guardian snuck into Crota's netherrealm and stole the essence in the middle of Crota's death ceremony. Though they were discovered and nearly killed, the Guardian succeeded in escaping. Returning to the Dreadnaught, they entered into Oryx's inner sanctum, and battled with Oryx. Unable to defeat the Guardian, Oryx retreated to his throne realm, leaving behind his sword, Willbreaker.
