==Strange Terrain story transcript==

'''[[Zavala]]''': If we find the place where this God Worm feeds, we can use the Traveler's fragment to draw out Xol.

'''Ghost''': I've been running some scans. There's a cavern that intersects with one of Xol's tunnels.

'''[[Anastasia Bray|Ana Bray]]''':  Zavala, listen to me. I've studied the logs. [[Rasputin]] was barely able to stop Xol the first time.

'''Ghost''': Guardians, I'm getting some kind of interference. I can't make sense of it.

'''Zavala''':  Our mission stands. We will defeat Xol, and we don't need the help of a Warmind to do it. Not when we don't know what else it might do.

:::The Guardian heads deeper through the [[Olympus Descent]].

'''Ghost''': The interference is getting worse, but I'm starting to pick up a pattern. Do you hear it, Ana?

'''Ana Bray''': I'll need more data to be sure, but yeah. I'm thinking it might be an encoded message.

:::The Guardian finds a glowing Hive crystal.

'''Ghost''': Those crystals are surging with energy. They must be using them to gather power to feed Xol.

:::The Guardian kills an [[Ugul Gar Knight]]. It drops a relic.

'''Ghost''': The energy in this relic is volatile. Try throwing it at the crystal.

:::After destroying the crystal, the Guardian continues.

'''Ghost''':  It looks like the Hive have been busy down here.

'''Zavala''': Keep going. According to scans, there's a large chamber where all the tunnels intersect. That makes it the most likely spot for Xol's feeding ground.

'''Ghost''':  Look at the size of these tunnels. Xol must be immense.

'''Ana Bray''': Meaning Xol is stronger than we thought.

'''Zavala''':  All the more reason to take it down now.

:::The Guardian kills [[Šimmumah ur-Nokru]].

'''Ghost''': They were chanting in an archaic form, about a priest - Nokris - and how he was labeled a heretic.

'''Zavala''': What could possibly qualify as heresy for the Hive?

'''Ghost''': Something about… resurrection?

:::The Guardian arrives in a large cavern 

'''Ghost''': This is some kind of holy space. They're readying another offering for Xol.

:::The Guardian destroys the crystals and kills the ogre.

'''Ghost''': The feeding ground is right below us.

'''Ana Bray''': I've decoded the interference pattern. Akka, Eir, Yul, Ur… those are names, Guardian. Ancient, powerful names. This is more than we-

'''Ghost''': Ana! Ana!

:::The Guardian arrives in a large, open chamber in the [[Penumbral Depths]]. Nokris appears.

'''Ghost''': That's not Xol. 

:::The Guardian defeats Nokris.

'''Ghost''': There, in the center. That's where we can place the fragment.

:::The Guardian places the fragment down. The chamber starts shaking. Xol appears.

'''Xol, Will of the Thousands''':  There is no Light here. You are alone. You shall drift. You shall drown in the Deep.

:::The cavern collapses, burying the guardian.
(Cutscene)
'''Ghost''': Guardian…? Guardian?! Where are you?!

'''Ghost''': Thank the light!

'''Ana Bray''':  Xol is heading directly for the Clovis Bray facility and Rasputin. If Rasputin dies, the javelin goes with him. Xol wins.

'''Zavala''':  Very well. My reservations about the Warmind aren't as important as defeating Xol. We do this together. What do you say, Guardian?

'''Ghost''':  We say it's about time.
