{{Hide|title=Destiny 2 spoilers|During the [[The Red War]], Io became a warzone for [[Guardian]], [[Red Legion]], [[Vex]] and [[Taken]] forces. Io was the final place that the [[Traveler]] influenced with [[Light]] in the [[Solar System]], and as such is sacred ground to [[Warlocks]]. During the conflict, [[The Guardian]] travels to Io on [[Zavala]]'s orders to find Ikora. After locating the Warlock Vanguard leader, Ikora sends the Guardian on several missions into a Cabal research base, ultimately revealing the Red Legion's plans for the Traveler and the Light. The Cabal were mining out the remaining Light energy from the Traveler, which attracted the forces of the Taken and forced the Cabal to evacuate. During the Guardian's time on Io, they also meet [[Asher Mir]], an [[Awoken]] scientist fixated on the Vex, along with their activities on the planet. | |||
A Vex structure known as the Pyramidion is found there, which was fought over by the Taken in another attempt to infect the Vex like [[Oryx]] had with the [[Vault of Glass]]. The exact purpose of the Pyramidion is unknown, but it is believed to be merely one of many entry points into Vex space, where one of their Axis Minds performed experiments on captured Guardians. | |||
A hidden [[Warmind]] vault was buried beneath Io's surface that was uncovered by one of the Cabal's drills. An Active AI was still using the facility but did not identify itself. Instead, it communicated via pre-Golden Age music and philosophical quotations, which proved to intrigue the [[Vex]].}} | |||
