*'''[[Variks, the Loyal|VARIKS]]''': [[The Guardian|Guardian]], I have news of signal fixated on [[Mars]]...An old signal, active for a very long time. Need to know why, or...someone else may get there first, yes...?
*'''[[Zavala|ZAVALA]]''': Guardian, [[Vanguard]] Scouts reports of strange bursts of energy coming from [[Meridian Bay]], along with a repeating signal situated deep within [[Cabal]] territory, we had attempted to send a team down to investigate, but we haven't heard of them since. For this, we thought it would be best to send one of best Guardians to investigate the situation.

*'''[[The Ghost|GHOST]]''': Variks, where is this signal located?  
*'''[[Cayde-6|CAYDE-6]]''': Hey guys! How's the weather down there?


*'''VARIKS''': Deep in [[Cabal]] territory...perhaps it could be of [[House of Wolves|House Wolves]]?...or someone else?
*'''ZAVALA''': Cayde, we have this situation under control, we do not need your assistance for the time being.


*'''GHOST''': We better hurry if we want to get there first.
*'''CAYDE''': Are you sure you don't need my help? I mean I was able to lead an assault against a giant [[Dreadnaught|Hive warship]] and helped take out an [[Oryx|Angry, Hive King]]!
 
*'''ZAVALA''': Yes, but this is a scouting mission, nothing more, nothing less.
 
*'''CAYDE''': Fine, I'll be over there, away from the mission, won't be listening...
 
*'''ZAVALA''': (sighs) The signal is far in the [[Valley of the Kings]], get in there, and put an end to it.

*'''GHOST''': Uh, why?


*'''AJ''': Look, I'll explain later, just shoot the Cabal, not the Fallen.
*'''VARIKS''': Explanation will come in due time. Destroy the Cabal, Assist the Eliksni, yes?

*'''GHOST''': Wait, the signal we are looking for is coming from the Tank!


''Doing what they did before, The Guardian takes out the Cabal, leaving the Fallen alive. But as they do so, a group of [[Dreg]]s and [[Shank]]s led by a [[Servitor]] exit out of the tank, colored differently than the rest of the Fallen seen outside of the tank.''

*'''GHOST''': So that was the signal that kept pinging then? Well how about we can all work together and maybe find those lost Fallen?
*'''GHOST''': So this House was the reason for this signal then? Hm, maybe we can help each other out on these..."bad" Fallen.

*'''GHOST''': No, it was a different House, one that hates both us, AND these Fallen..."Lion" Fallen.
*'''ZAVALA''': We will go over this on another time, as for you Guardian, return to the [[Tower]], you have explaining to do.


*'''VARIKS''': Hmm...come back to the Reef, must talk to you, and to House Lions as well, yes?

  • ZAVALA: Guardian, Vanguard Scouts reports of strange bursts of energy coming from Meridian Bay, along with a repeating signal situated deep within Cabal territory, we had attempted to send a team down to investigate, but we haven't heard of them since. For this, we thought it would be best to send one of best Guardians to investigate the situation.

{Gameplay}

The Guardian lands in the Scablands, moving forward.

  • CAYDE-6: Hey guys! How's the weather down there?
  • ZAVALA: Cayde, we have this situation under control, we do not need your assistance for the time being.
  • CAYDE: Are you sure you don't need my help? I mean I was able to lead an assault against a giant Hive warship and helped take out an Angry, Hive King!
  • ZAVALA: Yes, but this is a scouting mission, nothing more, nothing less.
  • CAYDE: Fine, I'll be over there, away from the mission, won't be listening...
  • ZAVALA: (sighs) The signal is far in the Valley of the Kings, get in there, and put an end to it.

The Guardian enters into Giants' Pass, seeing Sand Eater Cabal patrolling around the fortifications. They would take out forces, causing more Cabal to retaliate, sending in waves and waves of Legionaries, Phalanxes, Psion Operants, and Colossi. But they would all be defeated along with a Major Legionary named Tra'eng.

  • GHOST: Hold on...I'm getting another transmission, it's...hard to pick up...
  • CAYDE: (heavy static) [Huh? What's going on down there?]
  • GHOST: Commander? Cayde? Oh something is blocking out the signal, we need move forward to higher ground.

The Guardian leaves and travels to the Valley of the Kings, where a battle between Fallen of an unknown House and Dust Giants fighting against each other, with a Ketch hovering in view above the skirmish.

  • GHOST: Cabal and Fallen? Why would the Fallen be here on Mars?

They would soon hear another voice from an unknown feed.

  • GHOST: Wait, I'm picking up something, we need to move

The Guardian weaves their way through the battle, but as they try to get to better ground, they notice the Fallen aren't attacking them like they usually would do. Soon they would pick up the unknown transmission.


  • AJ: Damn Cabal, scrambling with all our comms and then goes to-
  • GHOST: Hello? Can anyone read us?
  • AJ: Huh? Who's this?
  • GHOST: I am a Ghost, my Guardian and I were investigating some kind of distress signal, are you alone?
  • AJ: Um, not exactly-
  • GHOST: Variks?

A loud Fallen roar could be heard in the transmission channel.

  • GHOST: Okay, may someone explain me what was that noise?
  • AJ: Oh nothing, just our...friends
  • GHOST: Friends?
  • AJ: Ok look, I know this may sound crazy, but just don't shoot any of those Fallen.
  • GHOST: Uh, why?
  • VARIKS: Explanation will come in due time. Destroy the Cabal, Assist the Eliksni, yes?
  • GHOST: Alright fine...

The Guardian, following the orders, takes out the rest of the Cabal, but leaves the Fallen alone, resulting in the Fallen cheering for the Guardian's assistance.

  • GHOST: Huh, they just cheered for us when we helped, and they didn't even shoot us. Either they like us or we are in a dream.

The Guardian would head over to where the Cerberus Vae III tank is located, seeing a squad of Fallen, led by a lone Captain, fight a Cabal platoon guarding the entrance of the tank.

  • GHOST: Wait, the signal we are looking for is coming from the Tank!

Doing what they did before, The Guardian takes out the Cabal, leaving the Fallen alive. But as they do so, a group of Dregs and Shanks led by a Servitor exit out of the tank, although they appear more different than the rest of the Fallen seen outside of the tank.

  • GHOST: Uh...are these Fallen friendly like the rest that we seen or are they the usual bloodthirsty bad Fallen?
  • AJ: Nope. They're the usual bad ones.

The Guardian kills the enemy Fallen and goes into the tank.

  • GHOST: Ok, now care to explain why are the Fallen on Mars?!
  • VARIKS: These Fallen-I mean Eliksni were tracking another House, one that has attacked them for a while, yes? Cornered the Fallen to here, taken up grounds on Cabal's position, roused the Warmongerers and now has forced them as problem for us.
  • GHOST: So this House was the reason for this signal then? Hm, maybe we can help each other out on these..."bad" Fallen.

The Guardian would get inside the tank, seeing Cabal and hostile Fallen fighting for control over the tank.

  • GHOST: Ok, more bad Fallen, shouldn't be a problem.

The Guardian would defeat both of the Cabal and Fallen, heading deeper into the tank as they get into the final area, seeing more Cabal and more Fallen. They would soon take them out. Afterwards, The Guardian finds a Fallen console that is where the signal is pin-pointing from. As they attempt to disable it, hoards of Fallen Dregs, Reaver Vandals, Shanks, and Servitors would exit out from the doors of the tank to fight The Guardian. As they defeat them, a large Captain, Tikmiks, Archon Priest, would exit out of the large doors at the end of the room accompanied by two Archon Servants.

  • GHOST: Uh-oh, we got a giant Captain that is really REALLY angry at us!

The Guardian battles out against Tikmiks and his reinforcements, but just as they were about to defeat him, Tikmiks would teleport away from the tank and disappear entirely. The Ghost would soon shut off the pinging distress signal.

  • GHOST: I was able to cut off the signal, as well as whatever was jamming other comms. But that Captain got away...
  • ZAVALA: Guardian, Guardian? Do you read us?
  • GHOST: Yes, and we also made some friends along the way...
  • ZAVALA: Friends?

Fallen chatter can be heard on the comms.

  • ZAVALA: What are the Fallen doing here, and why have you come to help them?
  • GHOST: We can explain-
  • AJ: Wait, Zavala?
  • ZAVALA: AJ? After all this time, we thought you were gone...
  • GHOST: Wait, AJ? The AJ? The one that went AWOL to go after a Vex Mind and never returned?
  • AJ: Yup, in the flesh, didn't expect I would get that popular.
  • ZAVALA: We will go over this on another time, as for you Guardian, return to the Tower, you have explaining to do.
