'''The Lightblade''' is a [[Destiny 2]] [[Strike]] that debuts in [[The Witch Queen]] expansion, located in [[Savathûn's Throne World]]. It features a [[Guardian]] [[Fireteam]], led by a tip from [[Fynch]], traveling through the realm's swamps in order to obtain a relic that might give more clues on figuring out how [[Savathûn]] gained the [[Light]], facing off against a [[Alak-Hul, the Darkblade|recurring foe]] guarding the temple that houses the relic.

At the same time though, they must listen to a [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain|recurring foe]], speaking to them throughout the strike, as well as cleansing the [[Taken]] from the Vex Network due to their recent incursions.

  • Defeat the Shadow Legion Forces

  • Cleanse the Taken Blights
  • Push Farther into the Network
  • Cleanse the Taken Rifts
  • Enter the Central Control Area
  • Defeat the Taken Hydra

Transcript

(Mission Begins)

  • Caiatl: Guardian, my forces report that Shadow Legion units are shifting their attention to the CloudArk.
  • Nimbus: That's likely why Neomuna's defense systems are reading offline, but I bet those Vex punks are also poking too close to the city's internals.
  • Caiatl: Let us hope that your technology continues to be resilient. This shift likely means Calus is attempting a different approach.

The Fireteam makes their way to Maya's Retreat, while battling through the Shadow Legion and Vex.

  • Ghost: Is that...a Taken blight? The Shadow Legion are forcing Taken into that Vex pocket!
  • Nimbus: The VexNet uses similar gateways as the CloudArk... which means that they could infiltrate the network and gain access to the The Veil.
  • Ghost: The Taken are relentless, especially under the Witness's control. We need to get in there and stop them.

'The fireteam battles the Shadow Legion and an Imprint of Nezarec before defeating them.

  • Ghost: The Vex portal is clear. Let's follow those Taken and remove them from the system.
  • Nimbus: Hey, Guardian? I'm not sure if this is because of the Taken, but... I'm starting to get a lot of weird claims from CloudArk citizens.
  • Nimbus: Screams, weird voices, nightmares... you name it.
  • Nimbus: The CloudArk is built on the energy field produced by the Veil. It's resilient, but not impenetrable. A backdoor wouldn't be impossible.
  • Fynch: Uh... I don't know. I didn't expect this. Just a... little hiccup! Heh. You can get that barrier down, right? Sure you can.

The Guardians deposit two Void Charges to disable the barrier. The boat starts transporting the Guardians along the canal

  • Fynch: Hey, hey, you did it! Good job. Boat's on the move again.

The boat stalls whilst Thralls swarm the Guardians

  • Ghost: Fynch, we're stuck again.
  • Fynch: Seriously? But I did the thing... it's just this Hive tech, it's so archaic... ugh, just give me a sec...

After defeating the Thralls, the boat moves again

  • Fynch: Got it!

The Guardians enter the swamp

  • Fynch: Okay, we're getting close to the swamp now. Temple's not far from here.
  • Ghost: You said this is a temple to Oryx?
  • Fynch: Yeah, that's right. Savathûn's brother. The Taken King himself.
  • Fynch: These two killed each other about a million times over, but she dedicated a temple to him. Eh, it's funny how that works. Now be careful here. Something happened to this place. It's overgrown with Darkness.
  • Ghost: I can sense Light here, though. I just can't see it. Maybe there's a safe path through...

The effects of the swamp cause the Guardians to become inflicted with Weight of Darkness. Waves of Scorn enemies and Lucent Moths home in on the Guardians traversing through. Eventually they reach the end of the swamp and navigate towards the temple

  • Ghost: Looks like we're all clear, Fynch. We're heading in.
  • Fynch: Careful. The Knight guarding this place? He's an old rival of Oryx, and he's no joke. Pretty funny that Savathûn has him guarding Oryx's temple, though.

The Guardians fight their way through the entrance to the temple, where the Lightblade awaits them. They enter the temple and battle the Lightblade

After defeating the Lightblade, the Guardians acquire a tablet (Story mode)

  • Savathûn: The tablets hide a riddle...
  • Ghost: Fynch, you were right - we found something. It's a piece of the Tablets of Ruin, the Tablets Oryx used to create Taken.
  • Fynch: I was right? I was right! I knew it. I knew the Taken were involved somehow...
  • Ghost: Alak-Hul's Ghost got away. It just left his body here.
  • Fynch: Ah, contingency plan. They're learning. Trying to stay a step ahead of you. But you got the tablet. That's the important part. That gets us one step closer to taking down the Witch Queen.
