The '''Battle of the Forges''' was a brief but heavily destructive conflict between the [[Guardians]] of the [[Last City]] and the anarchic Fallen of the [[Kell's Scourge]] crime syndicate, led by [[Siviks, Lost to None]]. | |||

For a time, Siviks remained beneath the radar of the Guardians but after discovering powerful technology and weapons belonging to the secretive [[Black Armory]], Siviks began to make a power grab over all the Fallen in the Solar System. Knowing of the dangers, [[Ada-1]], the last caretaker of the Black Armory, reluctantly sides with the Guardian to combat Siviks and his syndicate to secure the Black Armory's weapons and forges. | ||

After the events involving the [[Scorn]] and Riven's schemes in the [[Dreaming City]], the Guardian received a pass from the Spider, directing them to a hidden area within the Last City's walls, stating that it requires their attention. The Guardian takes the pass and after returning to the Last City, they find a secret passage within the wall that leads them to a hidden foundry filled with powerful and highly advanced weaponry, the [[Black Armory]]. They soon encounter the armory's curator, Ada-1, whom presently refuses them entry or to conduct business but relents after seeing they possess a pass. | After the events involving the [[Scorn]] and Riven's schemes in the [[Dreaming City]], the Guardian received a pass from the Spider, directing them to a hidden area within the Last City's walls, stating that it requires their attention.

Unable to investigate herself, Ada-1 reluctantly allows the Guardian to investigate on her behalf. Traveling to one of the forges located in the European Dead Zone, the Guardian encounters scores of Fallen belonging to a faction they have not encountered before. Before the Fallen could pilfer the Forge, the Guardian thwarts their efforts and sends them fleeing, allowing them to secure and activate the forge. Ada-1 is grateful and slowly begins to trust the Guardian but worry's that if the forge in the EDZ nearly came under the control of this new faction of Fallen, then the others could be compromised. Thus, despite her reservations, Ada-1 requests the Guardian to investigate and prevent the Fallen from defiling her order's forges. | ||

Siviks grew furious over the Guardians' intervention and securing the forges | Siviks grew furious over the Guardians' intervention and securing the forges but the Kell's Scourge's leader had located the main vault of the Black Armory and sought to take it and claim the secrets and technology within. Gathering all of his forces and the technology they have stolen, Siviks launches an all-out attack on the Last City's outskirts, becoming the largest Fallen attack since the [[Twilight Gap]], the [[Scourge of the Past]] Raid. Not taking any chances, Siviks unleashed his most devastating weapon: [[Insurrection Prime, Kell's Scourge]], a massive mech-augmented [[Prime Servitor]] with enough destructive power to breach the Vault. Insurrection Prime would become one of the most powerful Prime Servitors ever encountered by the Guardians, rivaling [[Aksis, Archon Prime]] himself in sheer power. Despite the power of Sivik's army, the Guardians form a raid team and utilize the City's forces to combat the might of the Kell's Scourge head on. | ||
After an immense, chaotic battle that reduces the area to a complete ruin, the forces of the City succeed in destroying Sivik's army and his Prime Servitor monstrosity, saving the Black Armory Vault from falling into the wrong hands. Gathering the Vault's secrets and weapons, the Guardians return them to Ada-1 who expresses her gratitude but cautions them that with Siviks still on the loose, the battle is far from over. | After an immense, chaotic battle that reduces the area to a complete ruin, the forces of the City succeed in destroying Sivik's army and his Prime Servitor monstrosity, saving the Black Armory Vault from falling into the wrong hands.

Seeking to bring an end to the conflict and to Siviks's ambitions, the Guardians pursue the Spider's mad brother but Ada-1 believes she knows where he might be going.
