| *'''Osiris:''' Who gave radiolaria such a mundane title? "Vex milk"! As though it's only a byproduct of the Vex.

| *'''Saint-14:''' Misraaks is too… busy. But I had to shoo Eido away! I think she is excited at the idea of another adventure.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Her time chasing pirates with Drifter was… enlightening.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' I told her that the Conductor and the Vex are still a threat, and that I could not let my friend's daughter risk her life because she is bored.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' She said she was not bored, and just wants to help. Well, I said, she can help us from the Tower and the Eliksni Quarter.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' That's why we do what we do. There may be new dangers, but we still have the safety of the Last City.

| *'''Saint-14:''' Hmm, I wonder where Eramis and House Salvation are. I thought she would be chasing the Echo just like House Dusk.
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' I'm sure she'll resurface. Losing support from the Witness and Xivu Arath most likely made her too vulnerable to take action.
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' Her House has lost enough people to attrition and defectors. Joining her was a risk, and plenty of Eliksni are seeing the outcome.
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Will Misraaks welcome these House Salvation defectors?
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' I hope so. We gain nothing through retribution. I think the Kell of Light knows that.

| *'''Saint-14:''' How is Crow settling in as Hunter Vanguard? Is he being good bird?
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' He's doing well. He stepped into the role with grace. In truth, this just codified something he'd already been doing.
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' Crow struggled when he first came to the Tower, no doubt. But now it can't function without him.
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' He tells me Cayde gave him everything he needed to do the job. I suspect it involved a dare.

| *'''Saint-14:''' The Conductor is beaten but Nessus is still pushing us away!
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' What we're seeing is the remains of Maya's command. Her Vex will continue to obey her for as long as they're alive.
| |
| | |
| *'''Saint-14:''' So we will keep destroying them until there are no more.
| |
| | |
| *'''Ikora:''' That's all we can do… Match persistence with persistence. And when we face Maya again, we'll put an end to it for good.
