| While travelling with another family who had a young daughter named [[Lucia]], the refugee band was forced to take shelter within a crashed dropship in a forest due to bad weather. While the adults scavenged food, water, and supplies nearby, Amanda and Lucia were bored and began making decorations to brighten their refuge at Nora's suggestion. Amanda was shown by Lucia how to work with the electronic components they scavenged from the dropship which they used to create small lights all around the ship. Once they finished decorating, the families made up songs to sing together to celebrate and pass the time. Not long after this Amanda and her family became separated from Lucia's family, and she never learned the fate of her friend.<ref name="DBtD">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Forge]], [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Dawning Delights#Dawning Before the Dawning|Dawning Before the Dawning]]''</ref>

She angrily told him that she had no time to be his chauffeur and that thousands of people like her were trapped and dying in the City below her. The Vanguard Commander countered that the City was lost and that they were all the same now without the Light.

They decided upon using the [[New Pacific Arcology]] on [[Saturn]]'s moon of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]] as a base to plan their counterattack against the Red Legion. As the fleet traveled to the moon, Amanda and Sloane helped Zavala craft a message to send through the solar system to rally Guardians there.

| Although the control center in [[Siren's Watch]] was secured, they needed to restore power to it. Amanda and Sloane provided instructions to the Young Wolf on how the power could be activated in the [[Tidal Anchor]], but were informed that the Hive had infected everything. When Sloane told Amanda that they needed her in the air to observe the Hive, she protested that her Hawk had taken a beating during the evacuation from Earth. The Deputy Commander reassured her that they would put her ship at the top of the repair queue, which unnerved Amanda, as she had been traumatized by the fall of the Last City. Amanda guided the Young Wolf through reactivating the pistons that powered the New Pacific Arcology and directed them towards the ones that Hive growth had jammed. Once the pistons were clear, Amanda noted they still did not have power, and suggested the Young Wolf reset the circuit breakers on the central control platform, which finally restored power and caused Amanda to celebrate.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Riptide]]''</ref> | | Although the control center in [[Siren's Watch]] was secured, they needed to restore power to it.

| With their foothold secured, Amanda and the resistance turned their focus towards decrypting intercepted Red Legion transmissions in the hopes that they could provide an advantage over their foe. Amanda detected a large amount of power being directed towards the heart of the Arcology and believed that it indicated the location of a network of CPUs that would be powerful enough to decrypt the transmissions. When the Young Wolf entered the Arcology, they discovered that its operating system still worked. Amanda suggested they find an access terminal that would allow them to pinpoint the location of the CPU network. When they located it, an alarm was triggered that alerted the entire Hive nest. Amanda worriedly noted that the Guardian would not make it out of there, and Zavala ordered her to fly to the Arcology and pick them up. She reluctantly prepared her Hawk for the rescue, but as she left, Zavala asked to fly fast and safe, which helped calm her nerves. Amanda soon arrived at the Arcology, flying in through a massive hole in the buildings roof, and successfully extracted the Young Wolf and the recovered CPU network core. Zavala praised both of them for completing the mission, which Amanda hoped would finally start turning the Red War in their favor. However, the transmission revealed that the Red Legion had a superweapon known as ''[[The Almighty]]'' pointed at the sun, which would wipe out the solar system once the Cabal were finished with it.<ref name="Utopia">'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Utopia]]''</ref> | | With their foothold secured, Amanda and the resistance turned their focus towards decrypting intercepted Red Legion transmissions in the hopes that they could provide an advantage over their foe.

| | Following the reformation of the Vanguard and their plan to strike at the Red Legion, Holliday provided The Guardian with aerial fire support and a tank so the Guardian could board a Cabal transport ship. During the final battle for the City, Amanda presumably fights alongside the Vanguard forces and upon Ghaul's defeat, resumes her duties in the new Vangaurd hangar, selling jumpships and Sparrows to all Guardians. |
| After the Vanguard was reunited and gathered on Earth with the rest of the resistance, Amanda provided aerial support for their operations against the Red Legion in the [[European Dead Zone]]. She began working with [[Devrim Kay]] to steal supplies from the Cabal to support their war efforts and civilians at [[The Farm]]. The two asked for the Young Wolf's aid in stealing a supply cache by transmatting it to her, but found the Fallen attempting to steal the same supplies and were only able to recover a single crate. However, Amanda and Devrim located another Fallen cache nearby in [[Maevic Square]]. Doing a quick flyover, Amanda warned the Young Wolf that the Cabal had [[Scorpius]] turrets defending the cache as they fought to take it from the Fallen. The Young Wolf emerged victorious and sent her the crates, but Amanda was outraged to discover that there were stolen supplies from the Farm in another nearby Fallen supply depot. Amanda was unable to provide air support due to the heavy resistance there, but the Young Wolf secured the area and allowed Amanda to pick up the supplies. She thanked the Guardian and their Ghost for the aid and noted the supplies would help a lot of people at the Farm.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Supply and Demand]]''</ref>

| When the Young Wolf was selected to lead an assault a Cabal carrier, the ''[[Echion Vae]]'', outside of [[Firebase Hades]] in the EDZ. The goal of the mission was to eliminate [[Thumos, the Unbroken]] and steal his ship codes so that they could infiltrate the ''Almighty'' and sabotage its weapon. Amanda used her Hawk to drop off a [[Drake Tank]] for the Young Wolf to utilize, prompting [[Cayde-6]] to question why he never got a tank. She joked that the Hunter would just break it and told the Young Wolf that if they needed another Drake to just contact her. As she flew away, Amanda did a pass by on the ''Echion Vae'' and noticed that its engines were beginning to start up and informed the Guardian.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Payback]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| The Young Wolf successfully infiltrated the ''Echion Vae'', but Amanda had caught the attention of several Cabal [[Thresher]]s. As she fought them off, Zavala asked if she could provide assistance to the Young Wolf as they assaulted the carrier's hanger, and Amanda informed him she just needed to finish off two more of the Cabal fighters. After doing so, she flew to the open hangers of the carrier and opened fire on the Cabal security forces inside as the Young Wolf entered. Using her Hawk's loudspeakers, Amanda taunted the Cabal for leaving their hanger bay doors open and allowing her to assault them. After the last of the Cabal in the hanger were killed, Amanda informed the Young Wolf she could not offer any more help and wished them luck in eliminating Thumos.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Unbroken]]''</ref>

| The Vanguard and resistance's campaign against the Red Legion succeeded, with the ''Almighty'' being sabotaged and Ghaul being killed by the Young Wolf and a reawakened Traveler. The Vanguard established their operations in a [[Tower (Destiny 2)|section of the City wall]] next to the ruined Tower. Amanda took over the hanger bay of the new Tower and was visited by the Young Wolf in the aftermath of the battle. She asked what they thought of her new setup and wistfully noted that she kept expecting to look around and see the old Tower's hanger. However, she noted it was not the first time she had to start over and commented that forward momentum was a beautiful thing. Amanda also provided a new Sparrow to the Young Wolf in thanks for their efforts against the Red Legion and encouraged them to go take it for a spin.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Chosen]] post-mission dialogue''</ref>

Despite that, Amanda had a few ideas on how to get around such issues and invited Cron to come down to her workshop in the hanger to test her ideas out.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Vanishing Point]]''</ref> She and [[Marcus Ren]] also began workshopping the idea of Sparrow jousting.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], [[Hastilude]]''</ref> After the Young Wolf killed [[Bracus Zahn]], Amanda examined a bomb strapped Sparrow the Cabal arms dealer had been developing.

| During the first [[The Dawning|Dawning]] after the liberation of the Last City, Amanda was scheduled to take part in the celebratory air show. However, it was canceled to foggy conditions making it unsafe to fly. Determined not to disappoint the people of the Last City after all they has suffered in the past year, Amanda took the ''[[Cerulean Flash]]'' and flew over the city streets one-thousand feet below the recommended safe airspace, delighting the citizens. As she returned to the Tower, Amanda thought to herself that whatever reprimand she received would be worth it.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/12/5)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]], [[Cerulean Flash]]''</ref>

| Nearly a year after the Red War, the Last City suffered another tragedy when [[Cayde-6]] was murdered by Prince [[Uldren Sov]] of the [[Reef]] and the [[Baron]]s of the [[Scorn]]. Amanda mourned her fallen friend, and talked with the Young Wolf before they departed the Tower to hunt Cayde's killers in the [[Tangled Shore]]. She discussed some of her past of being born outside the walls of the Last City and how her mother had died during the crossing of the Panama Ravine and her father just a half-day away from the gates of the Last City. Amanda admitted it had taken her time to feel safe in the Last City and that working with Guardians had comforted her since they usually never died, at least until recent events. Despite her grief, Amanda resolved to push forward because she knew Cayde would not want her dwelling on his death and the past.<ref name="LC"/>

| | |
| After the Young Wolf and [[Petra Venj]] hunted down the Scorn Barons and killed Uldren at [[The Watchtower]], they visited Amanda. She asked if they or Petra were the ones who had pulled the trigger on the corrupted Awoken Prince, but then changed her mind and declared that she did not want to know. After dejectedly noting that no matter who did finish off Uldren it would still not bring Cayde back, Amanda asked if she could help the Guardian somehow and if they needed a refit for their jumpship.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], [[Nothing Left to Say]] post-mission dialogue''</ref>

| ===Festival of the Lost===
| |
| Several weeks after the murder of [[Cayde-6]], Amanda Holliday hosts the first [[Festival of the Lost]] in the Tower since the [[SIVA Crisis]]. She met with the Young Wolf and reflected on the past year, noting most people were just getting over the Red War when Cayde died. Amanda decided to keep the Tower's spirits up rather than continue mourning, as that would not be what Cayde would have wanted. She then had the Guardian investigate the Haunted Forest.<ref>[https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/47315 '''Bungie.net''' - ''Festival of the Lost – 2018'']</ref>
| |
| | |
| Near the end of the Festival, Amanda learned from [[Petra Venj]] that Reef Cryptarch [[Master Ives]] had been murdered. As Petra was busy dealing with the time loop in the [[Dreaming City]], she requested that Amanda investigate Ives' death and sent the deceased Cryptarch's possessions to her. Amanda met with the Young Wolf in the Tower hanger and explained the situation to them and requested they locate the missing pages from Ives' journal to find clues to who his killer was before the trail went cold. Once the Guardian found the missing pages, Amanda used the information within to contact a few of her sources and discovered that the Fallen were likely responsible. She requested the Young Wolf follow up on this lead by investigating the Fallen's bases in [[Trostland]]. The Young Wolf discovered several clues, including Ives desecrated robes within [[Whispered Falls]] that had been taken as a trophy. Outraged, Amanda used all her sources to try to track the murderers, but was eventually forced to turn to [[Master Rahool]] for help. Rahool was devastated by Ives death, and aided Amanda in locating a teleporter in Whispered Falls that they could use to follow the murderers.<ref name="TLC">'''Bungie (2018/10/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Festival of the Lost#Year Two 2|Festial of the Lost]], [[The Lost Cryptarch]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| When the Young Wolf utilized the teleporter, Amanda tracked their location and was shocked when they ended up in the [[Cosmodrome]], which had been placed under quarantine by Commander Zavala. She quickly masked their signal and advised them to stick close to the wall, as Zavala would be extremely displeased if he learned that the quarantine had been broken. Amanda promised to cover for the Guardian while they hunted down the Fallen and wished them luck. The Young Wolf eliminated [[Kikliss, Murderer|Kikliss]] and avenged Ives murder, although Amanda felt there was something wrong about the whole situation. She advised the Young Wolf that this would likely be the last time they ever visited the Cosmodrome and suggested they look around some before reporting back to her at the Tower. Amanda reminisced that Cayde had once taken her to the Cosmodrome and looked upon the devastation with her, and advised that she should not worry about death since it had been changed by the Traveler, and that if she ever missed her family she should just wait for them to return as Guardians, although she sadly noted she was still waiting. When the Guardian visited the spot their Ghost had resurrected them at, Amanda wondered if they had been part of the exodus during the [[Collapse]] or if they had died there sometime later. Meeting again with the Young Wolf, Amanda wondered why exactly the Fallen had murdered Ives and then gone to the Cosmodrome, stating that she felt like they were missing a key part of this mystery. She wearily decided it was above her paygrade and provided the Young Wolf with an exotic engram that she had found amongst Ives' belongings, believing they should have it for avenging the Cryptarch.<ref name="TLC"/>

| |
| Two years after Cayde's death, the Last City was under threat once more when the remnants of the [[Red Legion]] set ''[[The Almighty]]'' on a collision course with the city. During the crisis Amanda was visited in the hanger by Commander Zavala as she worked on a jumpship. She asked how the effort with the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] was going to destroy ''The Almighty'', and as he reassured her that they would make it through as they always did Amanda believed he sounded tired, but also thought that he had sounded like that since the Red War. Despite that, Amanda commented that he sounded like Cayde in his confidence, and when the Commander did not answer she rolled out from under the jumpship to look at him. She noted that a lot had changed since Cayde's death, including the arrival of several new important figures in the Tower and the return of [[Saint-14]]. As they glanced over to where the [[Titan (class)|Titan]] made his home in the hanger, Amanda and Zavala agreed that it was hard when some people were able to come back and others were not. Wiping away a tear as she thought of Cayde, Zavala suddenly informed her that she was due for a break and suggested they go out to eat. Amanda immediately decided upon ramen, a choice which Zavala agreed with.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]] - [[NS81 Reprisal Sprint]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Zavala approached Amanda to help him set up the [[Guardian Games]], a competition between each of the three Guardian classes, which she was happy to provide. She helped to set up decorations around the Tower. When the Young Wolf visited her during the games, Amanda discussed the event with them and suspected that they would be someone good to bet on in the [[Crucible]] when she watched matches with Lord [[Shaxx]].<ref>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/interactions/amanda-holliday-the-guardian-games The Guardian Games]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Following the [[Arrival of the Black Fleet|Arrival]] of the [[Black Fleet]] in the system, Amanda was contacted by Sloane for advice on stabilizing the rigs after most of her work crews had evacuated due to the presence of a [[Pyramid (Titan)|Pyramid]] on Titan. She advised putting together a box girder to reinforce the struts, but Sloane reminded her that she did not have the expertise for that. Slurping down a bowl of ramen, Amanda questioned how long Sloane needed the reinforcement to last. The Deputy-Commander only needed it for a little while but noted that she had not even been able to worry about the Pyramids since the shaking started. Amanda thought that was a positive and pointed out that there had to be something useful in a [[Engram]] somewhere on Titan that could be used to reinforce the rigs. Seeing her friend's look, she switched suggestions and recommended making a wavebreaker to stop the waves before they hit and shook the rig. She attempted to demonstrate with her hands but spilled her ramen onto her desk. As she laughed at herself Sloane declared she was hanging up, causing Amanda to put on a melodramatic pout, but Sloane waved cheerfully before leaving.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/6/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Duress and Egress#Sloane: Wavebreaker|Wavebreaker]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Amanda was later asked by the Young Wolf to inspect the ''[[Radiant Accipiter]]'', a paracausal jumpship created by the [[Traveler]] and granted to them. She was fascinated by the vessel and how it functioned, as it had no controls, screens, or navigation systems as it respond directly to the pilots thoughts. However, she was saddened by the fact that she could not tinker with the ship as it had no technology for her to modify and did not even have a hood for her to open and inspect a engine.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Radiant Accipiter]]''</ref>

| | |
| ===Clash of the Chosen===
| |
| After [[Empress Caiatl]] arrived in the [[Sol System]] to reclaim the Red Legion and sought to bring humanity into the Cabal Empire, Amanda was assigned to provide aerial support to a task force led by Lord [[Saladin Forge]] that was dedicated to eliminating Cabal officers seeking to join her [[War Council]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[A Challenger Rises]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/the-war-table The War Table]''</ref> Among the other members of the task force was a new Hunter called [[The Crow]] whom Amanda began working with on several missions. Following one mission on [[Nessus]], Crow questioned why the Cabal had deployed the [[Imperial Land Tank]] ''[[Halphas Electus]]'' on the rogue planetoid. Amanda told him that the Cabal only ever solved problems with brute force and further explained her experience against the Cabal during the Red War, recalling the burning of the City and the civilians slaughtered by the Red Legion. Crow was unaware of those events, surprising Amanda, and she told him how the Traveler defeated Dominus Ghaul but that they still were fighting them because it was all the Cabal knew how to do.<ref name="Behemoth">'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Battlegrounds]]: [[Behemoth (Battleground)|Behemoth]]''</ref>

| |
| | |
| When the Cabal sent a force to assault the Hive in the ruins of the [[Cosmodrome]], Amanda was dispatched on a mission to scout their positions. She spotted a Cabal base being set up on the bluffs in the [[Mothyards]] and saw the Hive assaulting their position hard, although they remained dug in. The nearby Cabal frigates did not fire on her, as the Cabal remained entirely focused on the Hive. Returning to the Last City, Amanda filed a report on what she saw and also noted that she had not seen any Cabal civilians, speculating that they were being kept safe on carriers in deep space. She also stated her belief that the Cabal had little interest in conflict with humanity and were instead focused on gaining revenge against the Hive for the [[Fall of Torobatl|fall]] of their [[Torobatl|homeworld]], a sentiment she understood well from the Red War.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[H.E.L.M.]] Radio Message: [[H.E.L.M.#Season of the Chosen|Amanda's Cosmodrome Report]]''</ref> During a subsequent engagement between Vanguard forces led by [[Shaw Han]] and the Cabal in the Cosmodrome, Amanda was sent to drop the [[Praxic Order|Praxic]] Titan [[Siegfried]] from her jumpship straight onto an entrenched Cabal position.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[THE SWARM]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Amanda was infuriated when a lone Cabal [[Psion]] attempted to assassinate Zavala within the walls of the Last City. Crow noted her agitation and increased aggression against the Cabal after another operation on Nessus and attempted to calm her down. Amanda remained angry, declaring that Zavala was the glue holding the City and Vanguard together and that losing him would be the end of their struggle. Crow asked if she was close to the Commander, and Amanda told him that Zavala and Ikora were like family to her, and that Cayde had been as well and that she still missed him. The new Hunter wished he could have met Cayde, and Amanda reassured him that his killer had got what was coming to them. She asked Crow if he wanted to get drinks when they returned to the City and was surprised to learn that he had never done so before. Amanda became excited about taking Crow out drinking for the first time and warned him to buckle up for a wild time.<ref name="Behemoth"/>
| |
| | |
| When returning to the Tower from another mission with Crow, Amanda docked next to Saint-14's [[Saint-14's Gray Pigeon|Gray Pigeon]] and explained to Crow why she sang a jingle while landing. However, she cut off her explanation when Crow pulled her behind a landing gear and pointed out Saint-14 and "[[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Osiris]]" arguing, which ended with "Osiris" yelling at Saint to never mention [[Sagira]] again and storming off. Amanda winced at the harshness that "Osiris" treated Saint with, and upon noticing a questioning look from Crow about the situation she promised to explain later. She approached Saint and offered to help him with rebuilding his relationship with Osiris, which had been difficult since Sagira's death. The Titan thanked her, and Amanda then introduced him to Crow and explained to the Hunter that Saint ran the [[Trials of Osiris]] alongside many other duties. Saint tried to brush off her praise of him, but Amanda insisted that Osiris owed him for the work he did with the Trials and should be equal work into their relationship. Saint disagreed, noting that if a comrade was wounded you must help them, even if hurt yourself, a sentiment that persuaded Amanda.<ref name="WoC">'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Winds of Change]]''</ref> Saint then bid his farewells to the two, and Amanda laughed as Crow, distracted by his own thoughts, belatedly said farewell after the Titan had left. Crow looked at her once more for explanation, and she told him it was a long story that she would tell over a round of drinks that he would buy.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Paradigm Shift]]''</ref>

| ===The Endless Night===
| |
| Following the successful armistice with Empress Caiatl, the Last City would find itself trapped in an [[Endless Night]], the result of a powerful Vex simulation, that has begun to drain the city of its power. Requiring aid from the one individual who has the knowledge to breach into the Vex's domain, the Vanguard reaches out to [[Mithrax, Kell of Light|Mithrax]], Kell of the [[House of Light]]. After saving his people from a Vex attack, Mithrax agrees to lend his aid with Ikora offering his House shelter within the walls of the Last City, to which the Light Kell gratefully accepts. However, while many accepted the Vanguard's alliance with the Eliksni House of Light, others saw them as painful reminders of the bloodshed that has been committed for centuries between them, leading to paranoia and suspicion. Amanda Holliday however, was optimistic of the alliance with the House of Light, lending her mechanical expertise in helping the Eliksni set up their homes in the [[Botza Ruins]] and their Ether production. She would even attempts to learn the Eliksni language to help bridge the gap between humanity and Eliksni but also try to assuage the discomfort Saint-14 had with the Eliksni presence, even as he managed to reach an understanding with Mithrax.
| |
| | |
| Amanda would also conduct various projects, specifically with an Eliksni named [[Niik]], creating a new sparrow in the process. Unfortunately, the Consensus Factions had grown increasingly wary of the House of Light, even as they succeeded in not only aiding the Guardians in locating the architect of the Endless Night, [[Quria, Blade Transform]] but also managed to fully lift the veil and return daylight. It all came to a head when [[Lakshmi-2]], leader of the [[Future War Cult]], conducted a conspiracy with the other factions in using Vex portal tech to forcefully remove the Eliksni from the Last City and oust the Vanguard's current leadership. However, the coup ended disastrously when the portal allowed Vex to pour into the City, killing Lakshmi and anyone else. Racing to close the portal, the Guardians stormed the Vex realm and destroyed the Vex mind in control, stopping the Vex from entering the city, but enough of the machines remained and they were closing in on the Eliksni. Gathering her shotgun, Amanda Holliday entered the fray to defend the House of Light alongside Mithrax, Saint-14, Zavala and Ikora, removing the Vex and saving the Eliksni.
| |
| | |
| After the coup was exposed, leading the factions to flee, the Vanguard reaffirmed their alliance with the House of Light. Amanda once again lent her mechanical skills to help the Eliksni rebuild, with Mithrax offering the shipwright his thanks and was surprised that she wasn't a Lightbearer and yet still risked her life to defend his people.
| |
| | |
| ===Painful Truths===
| |
| Sometime after the Endless Night and the appearance of the [[Lucent Brood]], which included its own Lightbearers, the Vanguard entered into a [[The Coalition|coalition]] with the Cabal to combat this Hive threat. Amanda welcomed this alliance, actually lending air support for the Guardian by piloting a [[Hawk]] and dropping a Drake tanks against Cabal insurgents dissatisfied with Empress Caiatl.
| |
| | |
| However, prior to this, Amanda had learned Crow's former identity as Cayde's murderer, Uldren Sov, leading the shipwright to reject him, acting cold and distant towards Crow, much to his discomfort. Amanda was ultimately frustrated that the friend she had made was originally the one she had despised. These tumultuous feelings would come to a head as even after Crow was able to figure out why Amanda had been acting cold towards him, he wasn't sure how to approach her anymore, leading him to refrain in interacting with her for weeks. Furious, Amanda finally confronted Crow in person pointing her shotgun at his head, where she would denounce Crow as no different than Uldren, hurting the Lightbearer as he weakly attempted to apologize. Despite Crow's remorse, Amanda remained unmoved and angry, resulting in her cutting off Crow altogether calling him a murderer for killing Cayde who was like a father to her.
| |
| | |
| However, in time, Amanda would calm down and realize that her outburst was not what she should've said to Crow, something she would confide in Zavala as he struggled against his own nightmare.

| |
| {{Quote|Home again, home again, jiggity jig.|Amanda's father's jingle that she sang whenever returning to the Tower}}
| |
| Amanda is typically very jovial and sarcastic. During the [[Red War]], Amanda's personality seems to undergo a slight change as she appears somewhat subdued and even reluctant to take part in missions. This may be due to shock at having lost the City, and having seen so many Lightless Guardians fall.<ref name="Utopia"/> She recovers following the reclamation of the Last City from the Red Legion, although she maintains a grudge against the Cabal.<ref name="Behemoth"/>
| |
| | |
| The trauma from her childhood journey to the Last City and loss of her mother and father gives her frequent nightmares.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:From the Front#III. Amanda Dreams|From the Front III. Amanda Dreams]]''</ref> During her childhood, her father sang a jingle that she believed was from before the [[Collapse]] as a way of saying they were home whenever they bedded down somewhere on the way to the Last City. It become a ritual for Amanda to sing that jingle to herself whenever returning home to the Tower from a successful mission.<ref name="WoC"/>
| |
| | |
| Amanda has shown and proven herself to be welcoming and open-minded, as she welcomed the Eliksni of the House of Light to the Last City, lending what aid she could to them despite losing her parents to their kind. Further, she was cautiously optimistic of the armistice with the Cabal Empire, believing it help end the fighting and ultimately lent enthusiastic support to the Vanguard-Cabal Coalition against the insurgents to Caiatl's rule.
| |
| | |
| Amanda had a close working relationship with all three members of the Vanguard and considered them family on account of them raising her after her parents died. She was particularly close to Cayde-6, as both were willing to bend or break the Vanguard's rules to get tasks done.<ref name="CS"/> The loss of Cayde-6 deeply affected her and Amanda supported the Young Wolf's execution of Uldren, believing that he got what was coming to him.<ref name="Behemoth"/> Ironically, she developed a friendship with Crow, Uldren Sov's new Lightbearer identity, but was unaware of this, due to Crow keeping his face hidden. Upon learning Crow's original identity, she basically rejected him, acting cold and snapping at him, calling the whole situation between them as a horrible twist of fate.
