[[Will of the Thousands]] is a [[Strike]] and the final [[story]] mission of the ''[[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]]'' expansion.

==Overview==
This was found in [[Hellas Basin]] on [[Mars]]. It was also available as a [[Strike]] after the DLC's campaign. [[Guardian|Guardians]] were sent to protect the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin|Rasputin's]] neural network from a [[Hive]] attack led by [[Xol, Will of the Thousands]] by using the [[Valkyrie]].<ref name="ExpansionPass">[https://www.destinythegame.com/uk/en/expansion2 '''DestinyTheGame''': ''Expansion II - Warmind'']</ref>
As part of the [[Lumina]] questline, the player must shoot Hive crystals that are only present within the strike using [[Rose]].

== Story transcript==
'''Ana Bray''': Xol is tearing apart Rasputin's Neural Network, and if he does enough damage, he could trigger a chain reaction that will devastate Mars. All I know is we have one advantage left… the Valkyrie.

'''Zavala''':  I'll never trust Rasputin, but we'll need every weapon we have to stop Xol… even one that's powered by a Warmind.

'''Ana Bray''': If we overload Rasputin's core, we can use the excess energy to overcharge the Valkyrie. I think that's our only chance of really hurting Xol.

:::The Guardian fights the Hive.

'''Ana Bray''': Open the cooling vents on the inhibitors. Then hit it with everything you've got.

:::The Guardian opens the vent and shoots the core.

'''Concierge AI''': Attention, Neural Net Inhibitor offline. Core power levels rising. Continued fluctuations will result in a critical failure. All personnel are advised to initiate safety protocols. Remember: a safe work environment is a happy work environment.

:::The Guardian soon finds a neural node and scans it.

'''Ana Bray''': Oh no. With the inhibitor offline, the Neural Network is going crazy. I'll try to stabilize it. Defend the area!

:::The Guardian defeats the Hive, including a [[Kamus Wizard]].

'''Ana Bray''': Got it! Neural Net is online and ready. Now for the inhibitor vent…

'''Ana Bray''': The inhibitor vent is open!

:::The Guardian overloads the core.

'''Concierge AI''':  Core power levels approaching critical overload. Personnel are recommended to evacuate.

:::The Guardian overloads the last core.

'''Ana Bray''':  Great work! Get to the core before it goes critical. It's time to forge a new Valkyrie.

:::The Guardian soon arrives at the central core. [[Sulhava, Vassal to Xol]] appears.

'''Ghost''': We could really use the valkyrie right now.

'''Ana Bray''':  Stabilized! Kind of. But the Valkyrie is ready!

:::The Guardian defeats Sulhava and the Hive.

'''Ana Bray''':  All right. I need you to throw the Valkyrie into the core and force and full meltdown.

'''Concierge AI''':  Complete core meltdown initiated. If you can hear this message, you are too close to the core.

'''Ghost''': The Valkyrie is surging with energy far beyond what my sensors are capable of analyzing.

:::The Guardian continues on. Soon, Xol destroys the bridge in front of them.

'''Ghost''':  I've never seen anything so powerful! Be careful.

:::The Guardian fights Xol.

'''Ghost''':  Try to hold on a little longer. Ana is bringing the Neural Net online!

'''Ana Bray''': Auxilliary power has been activated! Get to a node and power up the javelin!

:::The Guardian and Xol continue to fight one another.

'''Ghost''':  Keep fighting!

:::The Guardian defeats Xol.

'''Ana Bray''':  I can't believe it. You did it! You took down a worm god!

'''Ghost''': We all did. We're a team now, Ana. A good one.

(Cutscene)

:::The Guardian, Ana Bray and Zavala stand outside of Rasputin's central core. It opens and they walk into the chamber. Rasputin begins to speak in a strange language while Ana Bray translates what he says.

'''Ana Bray''': The Bray family shaped me to be an all-seeing savior… while your Vanguard sough to wield me as a primitive weapon. But today, that ends, and I define the reality of my own existence.

:::Outside of Rasputin's core, Warsats can be seen, firing into orbit.

'''Ana Bray''':  My sight will stretch to the edge of the system and beyond. Never again will a threat go unseen.

'''Ana Bray''':  From this day forward, I will defend Humanity on my own terms. I am Rasputin, Guardian of all I survey. I have no equal.

'''Zavala''':  What have we done?

'''Ana Bray''':  Don't worry…

:::Ana Bray places her hand on the terminal. It logs her in.

'''Ana Bray''':  We've got this.
