'''Dendron, Root Mind''' | '''Dendron, Root Mind'''<ref name="Destiny 2 CURSE OF OSIRIS BOSS FIGHT 'DENDRON, ROOT MIND' FULL FIGHT (Destiny 2 Curse of Osiris DLC)">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZNvBHhsZmU'''YouTube''' - ''Destiny 2 CURSE OF OSIRIS BOSS FIGHT 'DENDRON, ROOT MIND' FULL FIGHT (Destiny 2 Curse of Osiris DLC)'']</ref> is a [[Vex]] [[Axis Mind]] that features as the main boss of [[A Garden World]] [[Strike]]. First encountered in the [[Simulant Past]] of [[Mercury]] within the [[Infinite Forest]], it played a significant role in not only Mercury's conversion into a [[Machine world]], but also the creation of the Infinite Forest and by extension [[Panoptes, Infinite Mind]]. | ||
==Biography== | ==Biography== | ||
Dendron | Dendron is housed within a massive Vex [[Cyclops]] chassis, with gold and white detailing that marks it as a member of the [[Sol Primeval]]. It remains behind an impenetrable shield unless said shield is disrupted, either by destroying the matrix connected to it or by attacking the various minotaurs that appear. In attack mode, Dendron will circle around the battlefield and fire a [[Chronology Rifle]], or fire a large Time Distortion projectile. | ||
As the Vex Mind responsible for [[Mercury]] conversion into a machine world, Dendron channeled [[Arc]] energy into a Vex spire producing radiolaria across the planet's surface. It was met and destroyed by [[The Guardian]] and his [[Ghost]] possessed by [[Sagira]], who were looking for the algorithm that created the Infinite Forest itself. | |||
After the destruction of Panoptes, [[Osiris]] attempted to recreate the Root Mind under his control, only for the simulated Dendron to achieve sentience and attempted dominance over the Forest in Panoptes' place. It was then destroyed by a fireteam of [[Guardians]] under Osiris' request. | |||
