Echo Mesa: Difference between revisions

'''Echo Mesa''' is a location on [[Io]]. It was the site of the [[Traveler]]'s final terraforming efforts before the [[Collapse]], and centuries later remains imbued with great stores of the Traveler's energy. It has long been held as a sacred site for [[Guardian]]s, especially [[Warlock]]s.

In the final days of the [[Golden Age]], after terraforming much of the [[Solar System]], including [[Mars]], [[Venus]], and [[Mercury]], for humanity's benefit, the [[Traveler]] moved to the icy, volcanic moon of [[Io]], in [[Jupiter]]'s orbit. Settling above Echo Mesa, the Traveler set about transferring some of its energy into the moon to render it hospitable for life. Its work was interrupted by the arrival of the [[Darkness]] and the onset of the [[Collapse]]. The Traveler fled to [[Earth]] and made its final stand, leaving Io only partially habitable.

During the [[City Age]], the Guardians came to view Io as a sacred site and conducted many pilgrimages there to revere and study the Traveler's last feat. That ended with the arrival of the [[Red Legion]] and the start of the [[Red War]]. In the absence of the Guardians' stewardship, Echo Mesa was invaded by the [[Cabal]], who sought to study the reservoir of the Traveler's energy, the [[Vex]], who initiated efforts to make Io another machine world, and even the [[Taken]], who began draining the energy reservoir for their own purposes.
