| *'''Drifter:''' Hey, Saint! How's the old man doing?
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Ah, it is kind of you to ask. Osiris is well. Better than well, actually. I think he found what he was looking for on Neptune.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' And what was that anyway? The city, Neomuna?
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' No, no—he found a purpose. Learning. Teaching. Mentoring. What he was always good at, but always walked away from.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Yeah... sounds like a nice run of luck for you two these days. 'Bout time.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Hey, chief. Is it true you found yourself a suit of "power armor" a while back? Don't suppose you could... find another?
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' I remember that armor. Golden Age tech, very advanced. Huh. It fused itself to me, boosted my strength, speed, agility, endurance…
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' until it ran out of juice, that is. Then I had to rip myself out of it to keep moving. Tore up my internal organs — made a mess.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' My Ghost had a hell of a time putting me back together. So… I guess the armor had some… design flaws. Still interested in scoring one?
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' You know... I think I'll pass.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' Osiris came to visit me yesterday. I believe it was his first time aboard a command carrier of that size. I dare say he enjoyed himself.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Ha, yes! He mentioned this at dinner. He says Caiatl reminds him of himself, which is one of Osiris's favorite compliments.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' I'll be it is. Caiatl took a long while to warm up, given the past, but I think she was able to see beyond her suspicions to the man himself.

| *'''Lord Saladin''' Did you know she asked Osiris to begin teaching the Cabal forces about the Darkness? She wants to understand Stasis and Strand.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' He neglected to mention that. It is… oddly humble of him not to brag. It is good to see everyone is growing.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' So, you're with Caiatl now. How many among her rank ransacked the Tower?
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' More than none, but fewer than you might believe. You've… missed a lot since you were gone.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' It feels like… like yesterday to me, Saladin. We were alone, scattered, Lightless. I was ready to fight until my body broke.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' I don't expect you to immediately acclimate to the new world you've found yourself in… but I do expect you to try.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' If I can learn to open my eyes and see beyond the tip of my sword… I know you can too.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' What's the saying? "Many hands make light work"? Ehh, I dunno. Some of that stuff still looked pretty heavy.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' I didn't see you lifting anything.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Hey, hey! Ain't you a tactician? My job's the same; it's logistics.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Mm-hmm. "Logistics".
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' I mighta… also been eatin' lunch.

| |
| *'''Xivu Arath:''' USE THEM TO DESCEND INTO THE DEEP. ENTER MY ARENA. JOIN ME IN BATTLE.

| *'''Xivu Arath:''' FEEL! FEEL THE AGONY OF VICTORY! FEEL THE PULSE OF BATTLE! EMBRACE THE WREATH OF BLADES THAT IS MY HEART! AIAT! AIAT! AIAT!
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' No…
| |
| *'''Xivu Arath:''' I AM THE THROAT THAT SINGS THE SONG OF YOUR UNDOING! I AM THE GRAVE, FILLED WITH BONES OF THE WEAK AND THE PITEOUS! I WILL BE YOUR REBIRTH, OR I WILL BE YOUR END!
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' No. No!
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Sloane? You... you OK? Who're you talking to?
| |
| *'''Xivu Arath:''' I GUIDE YOUR HAND. I BLEED THEM DRY. I AM YOUR ENDING.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' [grunts] It's under control. [exhales] I'm fine.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' I'm surprised you're here and not with Osiris, Saint.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Ah, Osiris and I... we know we will always return to one another, but there will be times when we must be apart, too. For reasons bigger than either of us.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' But I am here because of you, Sloane. When I heard your voice on the comms, I was the first to stand and volunteer.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' I'm glad to hear you've started act more responsibly. I remember a very different Saint-14.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Ah, yes. That—those were—those were different times.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Stasis. Strand. [sighs] Hard to believe that Guardians are actually using the Darkness, and that the Vanguard is OK with it!
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' I felt the same way at first. But over the years, I've come to understand that a former threat can make for a powerful asset.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Like your "Iron War Beasts"? Even the ones who marched on the Last City?
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' Every soldier has battles they'd rather forget… whether they're a Legionary, or an Iron Lord.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Drifter, I've been meaning to ask for a long time: What is that thing you're dragging behind the Derelict?
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Oh, that ol' thing? Eh, some kinda paracausal mumbo jumbo. One of Ikora's sneaky buddies calls it, uh, "an engine of pure potential".
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' The little curvy part's a portal — goes to a space where imagination is reality. It's what makes that machine I have work, how I make those counterfeit Taken.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Counterfeit?
| |
| *'''Drifter:'''' Well, yeah! I ain't some kinda spooky Taken maker! I just happen to have a big magic rock that makes dreams come true, sister.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' You don't have any idea, do you?
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' [laughs] Nope!
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Some of the tech we're salvaging looks like it could have been used for weapons and armor.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Makes you wonder why a bunch of eggheads would need their own private arsenal.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' Despite being a time of peace, the Golden Age saw many advancements in the field of weapons research.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Heh. No matter how good things get, someone's always gearin' up for the next war.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' All good things eventually come to an end. The Collapse proved that once and for all.
| |
| Or alternatively'
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' This report is interesting. Xivu Arath intended to use Rasputin's Warsat network as an unwinning scenario.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' We fire the Warsats on her army, she gains power through death. She fires the Warsats on the City, everyone dies.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' We only achieved victory through defeat. Through a... moment of sacrifice. It makes me wonder about our approach to defeating her.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' Winning without fighting. Philosophers of war have contemplated this very thing, both in our culture and, as I've learned, those beyond Earth.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' How do you defeat the undefeatable? That's an interesting problem.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Saint-14:'''This Ahsa, she has been here on Titan a long time, yes? But she is not FROM Titan, is she?
| |
| *'''Drifter:'''Nope! Way I hear it, she's a survivor of whatever turned into the worm gods the Hive worship. She got offered a bad deal and said, "No thanks."
| |
| *'''Saint-14:'''So... how did she get to Titan, then? Does she—does she have a very large ship?
| |
| *'''Sloane:'''She burrowed.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:'''Burrowed?
| |
| *'''Sloane:'''Through the Ascendant Plane. I recall an explanation: something about... rivers through dimensions. Great currents and... cosmic flows. It's all... very hazy.

| ''The fireteam complete their salvage operations.''
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' We got any ideas what that graveyard was about? All them bones where Xivu Arath's people were doing their thing?
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Humanity wasn't the only species to suffer during the Collapse. Titan must have had an abundance of naive life.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Huh. Never thought about that… all the critters that got wiped out when the Golden Age did.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Leave it to the Witness to kill off everybody's pets. Jerk.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Hey, Sloane! Moondust's gonna come pay you a visit while you're hanging out here.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' ...Moondust?
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Eris. She hates the nickname, but it's a cute hate. Anyway, she wants to pick your brain about your experiences with Ahsa.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' I suppose I can... tidy up a bit.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' I don't think you need to worry about that, sister.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Sloane, I… wanted to apologize for something. I know this is not the best time, but... if not now, when?
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' When I was Vanguard Commander, before Zavala, I was… reckless. Irresponsible. Always running off after Osiris. Always forgetting my duties at home.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' But you… you stepped up and took responsibility for it. You forged the title of Deputy Commander out of grit and tenacity, to cover my shortcomings.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' And you never once complained. You were the glue that held the Tower together while I… chased dreams. And I never did I once say… thank you.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' So! In front of the Guardians and the universe, I say it: thank you, Sloane. If anyone deserves that title, it was you, not me.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' I—I'm—[exhales] Thank you, Saint.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' You know, been wondering for a long time what the mystery creature of Titan was. Never thought we'd find out.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Ahsa is a remarkable being and a formidable ally. I hope that one day, we can all learn more about her... when she's recovered her strength.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Yeah... we might have to disturb her nap once or twice, though. I know Eris has some ideas she wants to run by her.
| |
| *'''Sloane:'''' If it involves combatting the Hive, I have no doubt that Ahsa will be willing to rouse briefly.
| |
| *'''Drifter:''' Yeah. Long-girl seems pretty all right.
| |
| *'''Sloane:''' Don't call her that.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Drifter! I hear from the deputy commander that she had that drink she owed you.
| |
| *'''The Drifter:''' Yeah, except I provided the drink. So I guess we're right back to square one.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Ah, I see. How strange that you volunteer for dangerous mission at great personal risk, all for debt you never collect.
| |
| *'''Drifter''': What you gettin' at, tin man?
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Nothing, nothing — just glad you chose to come along, yes? To talk to Sloane. About your drink.
| |
| Or alternatively
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' It's been fascinating hearing my Iron War Beasts talk about Xivu Arath. About their thirst for vengeance.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' For the destruction of Torobatl, their home planet.
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' Yes. What surprised me is how... understanding they are. It's what they would have done, had the situation been reversed.
| |
| *'''Saint-14:''' Understanding? The Hive killed billions!
| |
| *'''Lord Saladin:''' So have the Cabal. Make no mistake: Caiatl will have her revenge on Xivu Arath… but as equals, one conqueror to another.
