'''Hellas Basin''' is a frozen region of [[Mars]], and a [[Destination]] added in [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]]. Abandoned for centuries after the [[Collapse]], the ice was thawed by the awakening of the [[Traveler]], revealing a civilisation previously frozen beneath the surface.<ref name="Expansion II">[https://www.destinythegame.com/uk/en/expansion2 '''DestinyTheGame''': ''Expansion II - Warmind'']</ref> Also uncovered was the [[Hive]] brood [[Grasp of Nokris]] who, after hundreds of years beneath the ice, have returned in service to their [[Worm|Worm God]] [[Xol]]. The most prominent landmarks are [[BrayTech Futurescape]], an exoscience hub from the [[Golden Age]] owned by [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]], and the core of the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]], constructed by the same corporation. The destination was vaulted with the release of [[Beyond Light]].

==Overview==
An oasis of [[Golden Age]] technology, Hellas Basin is home to some of the [[Golden Age]]'s most advanced scientific operations. Before the discovery of a cache of [[Golden Age]] data cores in [[Freehold]], little information had survived about the region outside of it being a tourist attraction. However, this cache revealed that the [[BrayTech Futurescape]] facility was, in fact, the site of [[Rasputin]]'s creation.<ref name="Narrative">[https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/46779 '''Bungie''': ''Destiny 2 Narrative Preview'']</ref>

Sometime between the departure of the [[Traveler]] from [[Mars]] and the [[City Age]], Hellas Basin underwent a sudden and drastic change in climate, from a mild region ideal for life to a cold and unforgiving wasteland in only a few days. Shortly before the region underwent this change an invasion of [[Hive|unknown biological entities]], including [[Xol, Will of the Thousands|one of massive size]], was detected. The change was caused by [[Rasputin]]'s "Siberian Entropy Protocol", which he used to freeze the invaders, temporarily stopping [[Xol]] and his [[Grasp of Nokris|army]]

The wreckage of Prince [[Uldren Sov]]'s ship was found in a cave; presumably he crashed a second time after [[Crow (device)|Crows]] had repaired it.

Shortly after the [[Traveler]]'s awakening during the [[Red War]], the ice on the caps of [[Mars]] began to thaw. Sensing a continued threat to itself from the [[Hive]] that had been freed, [[Rasputin]] assumed control of the [[warsat]]s in orbit around Mars, and began to smash them into the planet's surface.<ref name="Narrative"/>

Following the [[warsat]]s' impact, [[Hive]] began spilling onto the surface in an attempt to destroy the [[Warmind]]'s core, originally constructed there by the [[Clovis Bray]] corporation. Meanwhile, the legendary [[Hunter]] [[Ana Bray]] sought an insight into her past within the nearby [[BrayTech Futurescape]] facility.<ref name="Expansion II" /> [[The Guardian|Guardians]] were dispatched to prevent the destruction of the [[Warmind]], assist [[Ana Bray]] in her investigations, and destroy the leader of the [[Hive]] in the region, the [[Worm|Worm-God]] [[Xol]] and its herald, [[Nokris]].<ref name="Expansion II" />

The [[Cabal]] [[Red Legion]] has also established a base of operations near the Futurescape facility for scavenging purposes during their retreat.<ref name="Reveal">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzOOdTvBM_0 '''YouTube''': ''Warmind Reveal Archive'']</ref>
