==Tartarus Transcript==
'''(Mission Begins)'''

'''The Guardians enter the [[Distributed Cognition Domain]] and traverse deeper.'''

*'''[[Mithrax]]:''' Each trespass into this domain is easier for you than the last. I feel you moving through the Vex network as they do, as they are. You are no longer an invader; you are a part of the system. I hope that as you change this place... it is also not changing you. 

'''The Vex initiate a purge.'''

*'''Mithrax''': Another purge sweeps through the network; be cautious. 

'''The Guardians enter the [[Tartarus (Location)|Tartarus]] Domain.'''

*'''Mithrax:''' The guts of this dimension churn, digesting all within. This entire place seeks your end. You will need to find a defense against the forces of eradication and entropy at work here. 

'''The Guardians dismantle the Vex firewall and summon Dimio, Oppressive Mind.'''

*'''Mithrax:''' We have awoken the Oppressive Mind! Destroy it!

'''Dimio, Opressive Mind is defeated.'''

*'''[[Ikora]]:''' We succeed for a third time, and yet nothing has changed with the Endless Night. Why is that, Mithrax?

*'''Mithrax:''' Each time the Guardian destroys a Vex mind in control of a domain, the remaining Vex carry the leftover burden. 

*'''Ikora:''' And how many of these minds do you think are left to share that burden?

*'''Mithrax:''' That... is unclear. 

*'''Ikora:''' Then we should focus our efforts on finding the central Vex mind guiding them. Osiris, how is that coming along? 

*'''[[Osiris]]:''' Slowly. Lakshmi and Mithrax's Splicers are diligently working with data the Guardian has recovered. But the Vex mind at the source of the Endless Night remains elusive. 

*'''Ikora:''' We need to move quickly. The simulation is draining the City's energy. I won't stand by and watch our Lightless civilians continue to suffer. 

*'''Osiris:''' Ikora. I don't intend to let that happen. 

*'''Mithrax:''' We will work harder. We will find a way. The Light provides. 

'''(Mission Ends)'''

==Corrupted Tartarus Transcript==
'''(Mission Begins)'''

'''The Guardians enter the Distributed Cognition Domain and traverse deeper.'''

*'''Osiris:''' When you first stole into this realm, I did not believe you could achieve what you have. Invading a domain of Vex consciousness like this. Yet, here you are... embodiment of the impossible. Somehow, in spite of everything you've accomplished, I managed to underestimate you. I won't make that mistake again. 

*'''Osiris:''' It seems the Vex are content to keep throwing the same defenses at you. Get into the domain, Guardian. 

'''The Guardians enters the Corrupted Tartarus domain.'''

*'''Osiris:''' This is a Vex disintegration domain, eradicating unneeded simulation data and abandoned terraforming projects. Beware those barriers; they will destroy all matter they touch. 

'''The Guardians breach the Vex security and destroys the final firewall.'''

*'''Osiris:''' Venture deeper, Guardian. The Vex are on alert, but their defenses have not fully come online. 

'''The Vex detect an incursion and summon Dimio, Oppressive Mind Reborn.'''

*'''Osiris:''' Once more, the Vex fall into our snare. The domain's master is yours. Destroy it! 

'''Dimio, Oppressive Mind Reborn is defeated.'''

*'''Mithrax:''' The end is here. The path to Quria opens. A night-end is in sight. Destroy Quria, and the Witch Queen will be forced into retreat. The Vex lose guidance; this network becomes unimagined. Ikora has taught how Guardians cornered the Undying Mind not long ago. With her wisdom, and Eliksni Splicers, we have plan-devised. Drag Quria from hiding. May its last thoughts be of fear. Of you.
