In the | In the first years after the [[Collapse]], a time before the rise of the [[Vanguard]] and the [[Last City]], some of the earliest Guardians to be revived chose not to protect the world, but subjugate it.<ref name = "What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition">'''Gameinformer, [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/24/what-s-going-on-in-destiny-s-story-2016-edition.aspx?PostPageIndex=3 What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition]'''</ref> Taking over various parts of the planet, some Guardians became [[Warlord]]s and injustice reigned, with the rest of the populace living under the tyranny of the various factions. Eventually, Guardians with integrity chose to stand up to their tyrannical brethren and form the Iron Lords.<ref name = "What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition">'''Gameinformer, [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/24/what-s-going-on-in-destiny-s-story-2016-edition.aspx?PostPageIndex=3 What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition]'''</ref> More and more noble Guardians joined the cause until an army hundreds strong was formed and the oppressive warlords were deposed, along with the [[Fallen]] who ravaged the [[Earth]]. One former [[Warlord]], Lord Felwinter, was swayed by the Iron Lord's message and decided to join their cause.<ref name = "What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition">'''Gameinformer, [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/24/what-s-going-on-in-destiny-s-story-2016-edition.aspx?PostPageIndex=3 What’s Going On In Destiny’s Story – 2016 Edition]'''</ref> | ||
Following the Warlord conflict, the Iron Lords dedicated themselves to defending survivors of the [[Collapse]] and restoring civilization. The Iron Lords protected the newly constructed walls of the [[City]] in the infamous battle of [[Six Fronts]] against six Fallen approaches, and not a single front faltered.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [[Mark of the Six Fronts]]''</ref> During this conflict, the Iron Lords were known for their invincible patrols and their contributions to the great Wall-Building, cementing their legend.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', ''Destiny: House of Wolves, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities#Iron Banner|Iron Banner]]''</ref> | |||
Seeking a way to rebuild what was lost during the Collapse, they eventually found [[SIVA]]. Hoping it would be able to build ships and colonies, the Iron Lords pushed through the [[Cosmodrome]] despite [[Rasputin]]'s desperate attempts to sway them and even the loss of hundreds of Lords to a combination of aerial strikes, a [[Frame]] army, and SIVA constructs.<ref>'''https://www.bungie.net/en/pub/RiseOfIron'''</ref> Ultimately, the venture would result in the loss of all save for [[Saladin Forge]] and [[Efrideet]], who had disappeared to live in the wilds beyond the city. The eight Iron Lords who made it, save for [[Lord Saladin]] sacrificed themselves to contain the biomechanical plague by sealing themselves within its replication chamber before it had time to escape.<ref>'''https://www.bungie.net/en/pub/RiseOfIron'''</ref> The sacrifices of the most well-known Lords are honored at the [[Iron Temple]] atop [[Felwinter Peak]], and celebrated in the [[Iron Banner]] tournament. The names of their signature weapons are lent to various Iron Banner equipment, such as the Felwinter's Lie [[Shotgun]] and the Jolder's Hammer [[Machine Gun]]. The second generation of the Lords, the [[Iron Wolves]], and their weapons are likewise honored by the Iron Banner. | |||
Following the [[SIVA Crisis]], a new generation of Guardians have taken up the mantle of the Iron Lords. | |||
