Asher was visited by the Young Wolf to discuss what the Gensym Scribe could contribute to the Vanguard's defense of the solar system. Upon seeing his assistant, Asher informed them that he had noticed their enemies on Io were responding oddly to the presence of the Pyramid. He ordered them hunt down their foes and record their findings. He then glanced over at the Pyramid hanging above the Cradle and noted that time was obviously of the essence in this task. When the Young Wolf returned with the data, Asher quickly analyzed it in his terminal. He observed from the data that the interference from both the Taken and Pyramid, combined with [[Savathûn, the Witch-Queen]]'s recent attempt to assault the Pyramidion through the Festering Core, indicated that something was studying the Vex closely. Looking once more towards the Pyramid, Asher deduced that a "chess game" between two powers was being played and that something did not want the Vanguard to know who won. He ordered the Young Wolf to continue their patrols on Io and that if he needed further assistance and had time to mentor them further he would send for them.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/6/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard'', [[Exodus (Quest)]]''</ref> | Days after the destruction of ''[[the Almighty]]'' at the hands of [[Rasputin]], Asher bore witness to a [[Pyramid (Io)|Pyramid]] entering Io's atmosphere, holding position above the [[Cradle]] at the foot of Echo Mesa. His first reaction was to build a makeshift railgun and fire it at the Pyramid, which he expected to result in the projectile being deflected by a shield, or, in the best case, cause massive damage to the Pyramid. Instead, the projectile ceased to exist, intriguing Asher and goading him into experimenting with the defensive mechanism by firing another projectile detectable via radiation and a radio signal. After launching a projectile equipped as a relay station after it, he discovered that the projectiles still physically existed, but were otherwise invisible. This left him with the question of what the Pyramid was doing to the projectiles, and why.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/6/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard'', [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Duress_and_Egress#Asher:_Observation|Duress and Egress]]''</ref> | ||
