The '''Seraphs''', also known as the '''Seven Seraphs''', were a peacekeeping force that was active during the [[Golden Age]]. They worked closely with the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] with each member being entrusted with a [[Warmind Khanjali]]. | |||
They operated from several [[Seraph Bunker|combat bunkers]] across the system which were built and stored by Rasputin. Eventually, all of the Seraphs were wiped out during the [[Collapse]]. When the [[Guardians]] joined forces with Rasputin, they uncovered their armaments in defunct bunkers and rediscovered their legacies.<ref name=Tatarstan>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''',''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]], Item Description: [[Tatarstan]]''</ref> | |||

On [[Earth]], First Lieutenant Artur Voronin and his superior Morozova were stockpiling munitions as surviving civilians were being escorted into a nearby evac station to wait out the ongoing calamity in cryo-induced hibernation. By then, the Pyramids had unleashed a paracasual storm across the surrounding landscape, separating Voronin and Morozova amidst the chaos and threatening the station and its people.

officer just as the [[Traveler]] came to the planet and into his vicinity. Artur and Morozuva were then saved by faculty from the nearby evac station and placed in cryo-sleep; the last thing that the first lieutenant had seen was of the Traveler's sacrifice. <ref>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]], Item Description: [[Seventh Seraph Armor]]''</ref> | |||
