'''Hellas Basin''' is a | '''Hellas Basin''' is a region on [[Mars]]' polar ice caps. Abandoned for centuries after [[Collapse|the Collapse]], the ice was thawed by the awakening of [[Traveler|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]] sect [[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. | ||

An oasis of | 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 | Sometime between the departure of [[Traveler|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|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. | 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 | 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 warsats in orbit around Mars, and began to smash them into the planet's surface.<ref name="Narrative"/> | ||
Following the | Following the warsats' 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 last Warmind, assist Ana Bray in her investigations, and destroy the leader of the Hive in the region, the 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> | 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> | ||
