Follow in the bloody wake of Syndicate forces as they breach the Hive fortress.
***
Aunor Mahal: Guardian, you secured Dredgen Cull's Weapon of Sorrow, but we're still detecting Hive activity around the stronghold. Press deeper into the fortress and figure out what Bael is after. The Drifter and I will run support.
Drifter: Urgh. I know old men have said this since the dawn of time, but... damn kids these days got no respect! Back when I was a Dredgen, we weren't against the Light... just the folks who outlawed the Darkness. But that punk kid Bael's got the Outer Nine in 'im now.
Aunor Mahal: And we have the Nine's Weapon on point. Good hunting, Guardian.
//The Guardian delves deeper into the Moon.
Aunor Mahal: They're using soulfire to power industrial machinery. It's death as an energy source. Thanatonauts have confirmed it can fuel Hive bioenergetics. Looks like it can power Weapons of Sorrow as well.
//The Guardian enters the Hive tunnels.
Aunor Mahal: If Bael can utilize soulfire, he can forge Guardian killers. H didn't need Cull's weapon — he needs the blueprint. With that, he can make an arsenal!
Dredgen Bael: The False Weapon arrives, shooting mindlessly wherever they're pointed. And the Betrayer. The walking dead man himself. I'm standing over your corpse as we speak.
Drifter: Ooh, ha! You wish, kid. The Nine got you all turned around. You ain't built for two.
//The Soulfire jets are doused.
Aunor Mahal: The soulfire is siphoning underground, piping into a colossal reserve beneath us. There are veins throughout the Moon: storage chambers, transmission works... This isn't just a storage system — they've built a forge!
//The Guardian delves deeper.
Dredgen Bael: Take it all in, False Weapon. Your inevitable end. VI and I... we want you to see this.
Aunor Mahal: He's clearly looking for another way to strike us. Soulfire must be his next play. I almost respect the grit. You took more than his hand from him.
//The Guardian finds a profane worm.
Drifter: All this mess reminds me of my Dredgen days. We were determined to break out of the box the Traveler put us in. Cracking the code of the universe. Balancing the scales Ulan-Tan style. Funny thing about it... I was dragging the Haul around, even back then. The Nine already had my number. I spent all that time trying to break out of the wrong damn box.
//A door unlocks deep within the fortress.
Dredgen Bael: Beneath you flows a river of soulfire. Consider how many lives were spent to make it. Sword Logic is, ironically, blunt, but it carves out a fundamental truth: Everything worth anything requires sacrifice.
//The Guardian delves deeper.
These are Totality foot solders. They're harvesting Barants. Their armor's been drained of organogel and — by the Light! They've had... they've had their bones torn out from the extremities. Hive weapon patterns often use osteoid frames, but they're usually grown. Not harvested.
//The Guardian finds a soulfire reserve.
Aunor Mahal: Dredgen activity is spiking across the system. The Nightfall attack was a propaganda coup. Ikora wants you to be the tip of the spear. As ranking field Guardian — and Nine Weapon.
//The Guardian traverses the soulfire reverse.
Aunor Mahal: We know the Dredgens have all the soulfire they need for an "Arsenal of Sorrow". Let's pinpoint where they're channeling it and burn it all down.
//The Guardian finds a profane worm.
Aunor Mahal: I have a working theory on the missing Warlock, Clauda Miraan. She could be buried under some rubble, or being held captive. That would explain why she can't escape. But why wouldn't her Ghost just call for help?
//The Guardian finds a profane worm.
Aunor Mahal: It seems likely that the missing Warlock came looking for Dredgen Cull's weapon... Following in the footsteps of the Shadows of Yor.
Drifter: Looking back, I feel like the Shadows were a lie we forgot wasn't true. Or a joke that nobody got. Malphur putting his Golden Gun through Cull was the sad punchline.
