Colonies tended not to last long from either alien hordes or infighting. Humanity was on the fringe of extinction.{{citation needed}} But out of it, the [[Awoken]] emerged, and the [[Exo]] appeared from the ruins with their memories broken. Furthermore, the [[Ghost]]s had begun looking for their [[Guardian]]s, and rumours circulated of the haven beneath the [[Traveler]] that would one day become the [[City]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Places#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Dark_Age|Ghost Fragment: The Dark Age]]''</ref> | The Dark Age was a time of vast suffering and terrible evil.

Eventually, Guardians with integrity chose to stand up to their warlord brethren as the [[Iron Lords]].<ref name = "What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition">'''Gameinformer, [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/24/what-s-going-on-in-destiny-s-story-2016-edition.aspx?PostPageIndex=3 What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition]'''</ref> Eventually, more and more noble Guardians joined the cause until an an army hundreds strong was formed and the oppressive warlords were deposed.<ref name = "What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition">'''Gameinformer, [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/24/what-s-going-on-in-destiny-s-story-2016-edition.aspx?PostPageIndex=3 What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition]'''</ref> | |||
The Cabal established a beachhead on [[Phobos]] for initiating the invasion of Mars. During the invasion the Cabal encountered the native Vex programing the [[Virgo Prohibition]], and began a massive war of attrition following their nearly uncontested conquest of [[Mars]]. The Vex fought to protect the entrance to their "birthplace", the [[Black Garden]], from the ever expanding Cabal [[Exclusion Zone]], but apparently failed to halt the Cabal advance. This war was fought with little outside interference, the City busy with her own problems. | The Cabal established a beachhead on [[Phobos]] for initiating the invasion of Mars.
