Editing The Dawning (Rise of Iron)

{{quote|When survivors came to the [[Last City]], they brought with them the customs of a thousand lost nations. As we built a new community from the ashes of the old, so too did we create traditions that reflect this transformed world. During The Dawning, we light lanterns to guide the [[Light]] back to us in a time of [[Darkness]]. The fires from our candles and hearth flames remind us that no matter how black the night is, there will be a dawn.|[[Master Rahool]]}}

[[File:The Dawning.jpg|300px|thumb]]

'''The Dawning''' was a limited time event in ''[[Destiny]]'' that ran from December 13, 2016 to January 3, 2017. It is exclusively a part of the ''[[Rise of Iron]]'' expansion pack, so it is only available on [[PlayStation 4]] and [[Xbox One]]. Microtransactions through the [[Eververse Trading Company]] were less onerous than previous events.<ref name="Forbes">'''Forbes''' - ''[http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2016/12/05/destinys-the-dawning-will-make-the-games-microtransactions-less-terrible/#415332ae8285  Destiny's 'The Dawning' Will Make The Game's Microtransactions Less Terrible]''</ref> In [[Destiny 2]], the event returns with [[Eva Levante]] as the main vendor and organizer of the event.

==Story==
'''The Dawning''' is an amalgamation of holiday traditions that refugees brought to the Last City. They include the giving of gifts and passing blessings of good luck and health in the new year. Like Festival of the Lost, The Dawning was brought to the Tower by Eva Levante, likely in an attempt to connect Guardians with the people they protect.

And Guardians unite in the spirit of competition.|Ghost}}<ref name="The Dawning">'''YouTube''' - ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3UWvdwN8ik&feature=youtu.be Official Destiny: Rise of Iron – The Dawning Launch]''</ref>
