Transcript[edit]

Guardian! Glad you could make it. We got a lot of work we need to do before we can strike at the Witness, and part of that is gathering reinforcements. Sure, Caiatl and Misraaks are bringing in their friends. But I think it'll be the smaller, more humble kind of reinforcement that wins the day. Ghosts, I mean. I brought a flock with me, but there's a lot of other unpartnered Ghosts out there who aren't accounted for. So, what I'd like you to do, is follow up on some leads I have and go find these friends and bring them back here to join the fight. And I have just the Ghost for you to start with. Her name is Peach, and she's a delight. My last telemetry for her was out in Old Russia's Cosmodrome. I'd start your investigation there. Good luck, Guardian. See you on the return.

Step 2[edit]

Search for Ghost telemetry in strike "The Disgraced" in the Cosmodrome.

  • Coordinates found

Ghost: If Peach was investigating something in the Cosmodrome, we should be able to find her trail and track her down.

Transcript[edit]

(Mission Begins)

  • Micah-10: I checked in with Shaw Han, and he said that Peach came through asking some odd questions. She was looking for directions to the old Hive nest that the wizard Navôta took over after Omnigul died. It's been quiet for a long time, though. But Shaw also shared reports with me that he saw Lucent Hive scouts in the vicinity a few weeks back. Finding Peach is our first priority, but if you find anything else, I trust you to take care of it. In the meantime, I need to take care of some injured Ghosts that were just brought in. I'll check back soon.

Fighting their way through hordes of Hive, the Guardian eventually discovers a calcified statue of an Ogre and sends out their Ghost to scan it. After the scanning is complete, the Guardian confronts and slays the returned Navôta, Eir Spawn.

  • Micah-10: Navôta was dead. Dead for a long time now. So for her to be here, there's only a handful of possibilities. On the one hand, it could be an illusion: Savathûn masking a Hive Wizard in order to infiltrate her sister's ranks and sow discord… On the other, it could be necromancy. But there's too many variables to know. Peach was definitely on to something, though.
  • Ghost: I'm picking up a latent Light signature from Peach. I think we can follow it to where she is.
  • Micah-10: Good work, Guardian. Bring her back safe and sound.

(Mission Ends)

Step 3[edit]

Search the Cosmodrome for Peach

  • Orders read

Ghost: Peach never knew when to quit. I hear Suraya Hawthorne often said the same thing about you, Guardian.

Notes[edit]

Peach can be found in the Steppes underground and surrounded by calcified statues of a Hunter, Warlock and Titan.

Step 4[edit]

Return to the Arbor of Light in the Pale Heart to restore the Lost Ghost.

  • Ghost Restored

Peach could use a little boost of extra Light to get her on her way. Thankfully, we have an abundant source on hand in the Arbor.

Step 5[edit]

Return to the Arbor of Light to discuss next steps.

  • Micah-10 Visited

Come on back to the Arbor. I think we both need to talk about what happened back in the Cosmodrome.

Transcript[edit]

Peach was lucky to get out of that situation with only a few dents and dings. The world outside of the Pale Heart is transforming... We've got no room for error now. I'll get Peach set up in a cleansing team here in the Pale Heart. I'll contact you when I have telemetry on another Ghost. Stay safe, Guardian.
