Come back here and we can sort that out. | *'''Shaw Han''' - No. We got it in the nick of time, actually.

*''Link yourself into House of Dusk communications and discover what they are truly up to'' | |||
''"We got ourselves a... well, rather nice looking commlink. Not all get Fallen tech that isn't bricked as soon as its user dies, so that says something about our very special definition of luck. Let's get us registered and see what the Fallen are talking about. If nothing else, we have fancy trophy that might teach us a thing or two about their language."''-Ghost | |||

*'''Shaw Han''' - You just took out another link in the House of Dusk's chain and brought us closer to the true reason for their presence here! Excellent! Now, those commlinks... well, link themselves to its user's biological signature and are linked to whatever network they are assigned to, so we're gonna have to do some work here. I've detected the different comms arrays that the Fallen are probably using to broadcast their information and orders. As for the biological signature bit, well, that part's all you. Good luck. | |||
====Objectives==== | |||
*Defeat Fallen while critically wounded. Captains, Shanks, Servitors and Walkers provide additional progress. | |||
*Follow waypoints to both Fallen and Golden Age Terminals and link your Comms into the House of Dusk network. | |||

*''House of Dusk leadership is meeting in the heart of their lair. Steal access keys from an incoming [[Ketch]] and defeat it's [[Baron]]'' | |||
''"We're in! I'll scour it for anything of interest. ...hmm, troop movements, forwarding that to [[Zavala]]. Dig site operations, noted... A meeting. Some of the House of Dusk's leadership is meeting here in the Cosmodrome to discuss whatever plan they're enacting here, in the heart of their lair! They've got that place well defended, though. But we can improvise! One of their Barons are arriving shortly. Let's talk to Shaw about this revelation."''-Ghost | |||

*'''Zavala''' - You've shown up! About time! Shaw's been telling me about your handiwork against the Fallen here in the Cosmodrome. Thank you for putting their Archon down for good. Have you found anything of interest? | |||
*'''Ghost''' - Zavala! I- Ahem, we just got word that the Fallen are meeting somewhere within the Rocketyard, in the [[House of Kings]]'s former [[King's Watch|base of operations]]. They've got the place well defended but we believe we can circumvent the brunt of it by taking access keys from an incoming Baron. | |||
*'''Zavala''' - I see. I know what you're trying to do here. It's brave, but not many have boarded a Ketch and lived, let alone, face a Fallen Baron. | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - They're good sir. They took down [[Navôta, Eir Spawn|Navôta]], after all. | |||
*'''Zavala''' - Indeed. But the Fallen are a whole new bag of tricks. They're ambitious, resourceful, crafty and, at times, forward-thinking. An attack is probably something they will expect, or even want. I'm not saying tha- | |||
''Suddenly, a Ketch comes out of warp, shaking the Cosmodrome and throwing both Zavala, Shaw and the Guardian out of balance. The ship then touches down outside the wall'' | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Shanks and Pikes! | |||
*'''Zavala''' - That must be your Baron, then. Very well. As much as I want the Fallen's grip on the Cosmodrome to slip for good, that cannot happen when a Guardian as talented as you is lost. Please, exercise caution. | |||
*'''Ghost''' - Fear not, commander! Certain death firefight scenarios are our specialty! | |||
*'''Zavala''' - Hmm. Guardian, good luck. | |||
''Zavala transmits out of [[The Steppes]], the quest then appears in [[The Divide]]. The Guardian goes up to the Quest marker and starts The Ketch Heist mission'' | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - I hate to admit it, Guardian, but Zavala is right. Taking out an Archon is one thing, but raiding a Ketch and taking out a Baron and their lackeys is a whole other ordeal. | |||
*'''Ghost''' - Nothing we can't handle, right? | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Maybe. Just watch your back in there, alright? Like Zavala said, the Fallen are a clever bunch, they've probably got traps in there. Best of luck! | |||
''The Guardian enters the breach, coming across a few squads of Fallen soldiers, Web and Trip Mines and a scattered grouping of [[Major]] class [[Vandal]]s, called Dusk Guards. After killing a few of the Dusk Guards and progressing deeper into the Breach'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - Whew. Those guys were tough. | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Those were ex-[[Kell's Guard]], [[Wolves' Guard]] and all other ruthless, brutish elites from bygone Houses. Means your getting close to the Baron. Keep your guard up. | |||
''The Guardian comes out into the Gateway and comes across the massive Ketch, [[Forum:Duskship Deksis-Syn|Duskship Deksis-Syn]], as well as a massive onslaught of Fallen. A barrier shield protects the main deck of the Ketch'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - That is a really big ship. And that is a lot of Fallen. | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Break the tide and get in there. | |||
''After taking out most of the Fallen squads and taking out the Barricade Servitor protecting it, the barrier drops, allowing access to the deck of the Ketch, however, another barrier would block off the the cargo bay. After taking out the descending Fallen and second Barricade Servitor, the barrier, once again, drops, and an onslaught of Fallen, lead by a [[Resilient Captain]]. After taking out the Captain and their squad, the Guardian is free to delve deeper into the ship'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - Whew! Fallen are taken care of and we're in the ship. What now? | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Excellent! The bridge should be just ahead of you. Stay vigilant though. If the Baron didn't suspect you coming then, he sure does now. | |||
''The Guardian navigates the Fallen occupied halls of Duskship Deksis-Syn, taking out a few emplaced [[Security Turret]]s and patrolling Dusk Guards they come across. The team finally arrives in one section of the bridge occupied by a scanning [[Pilot Servitor]] and a large patrol of Fallen.'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - We've made it to the bridge! No sign of the Baron though. | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Maybe he got wise to our plan. Clear the room and comb through the ship's security feed. | |||
''After taking out the bridge crew, the Guardian is lead to a security terminal. The Guardian deploys the Ghost to scan it.'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - Hmm. Where are you? Hmm. Aha! He's currently hiding in his throne room, a few corridors down! Looks like he's expecting us. | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Well, Guardian, don't keep him waiting. | |||
''The Guardian follows the waypoint towards the ship's throne room, facing off against emplaced Security Turrets and Fallen guards. The Guardian finally arrives in the ship's throne room, where they encounter [[Forum:Viliks, Dusk Baron|Viliks, Dusk Baron]] and two Dusk Guards readying their weapons'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - There's our Baron! | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Take him down. | |||
''Viliks and the Guardian face off. Despite his reinforcements and well-trained Dusk Guards, the Guardian eventually assassinates Viliks'' | |||
*'''Ghost''' - We did it! Shaw, the Baron is down. | |||
*'''Shaw Han''' - Exceptional work! Snag his access keys, get out of there and rendezvous in the Grottos. It's time we shatter the House of Dusk's grip on the Cosmodrome and discover what the reason for their presence. | |||
