==Transcript==
'''[[Ishtar Sink]], [[Venus]]'''
 
*'''[[Cayde-6]]''': Those [[Fallen]] in the Ishtar Sink on Venus… story is they raided the [[Prison of Elders]] in the [[Reef]]. Got an [[Archon Priest]]. The [[Queen of the Reef|Queen]]'s bounty is high so we know it's powerful. We need to hunt this thing down before they fully restore it's soul.
 
''The [[Fireteam]] lands in [[Headlands]].''
 
*'''[[The Ghost|Ghost]]''': It won't take them long to restore the Archon Priest's soul. We'd better head for the caves.
 
''The [[Guardian]]s head for [[Ember Caves]].''
 
*'''Ghost''': [[Vex]]!? What are they doing in here?
 
''The Fireteam attacks Fallen and Vex.''
 
*'''Ghost''': If the Fallen are already fighting off Vex, they'll be ready for us. The Archon Priest will be well-protected.
 
''The Fireteam arrives in the [[Cinders]], Fallen and Vex are fighting. The Guardians clear the threat.''
 
*'''Ghost''': We'll need to get through! I'll check it out
 
''Ghost scans the system.''
 
*'''Ghost''': It's locked down tight. Just give me some time.
 
''Ghost hacks the locked door. The fireteam is ambushed by Fallen and Vex. The Guardians clear the threat.''
 
*'''Ghost''': Ok! It's open!
 
''Ghost taps into fallen comms.''
 
*'''Ghost''': Picking up Fallen comms. They're restoring the Archon Priest! We'd better move. Think they'd if we take their [[Pike]]s?
 
The Guardians battle through Ash Coves, and arrive in [[Winter's Run (location)|Winter's Run]].
 
*'''Ghost''': A cell. From the Prison of Elders. The Archon Priest is still inside.
 
''The fireteam clears the area of Fallen and Vex.''
 
*'''Ghost''': You sure this is a good idea?
 
''The Guardians rlease [[Aksor, Archon Priest]]. The fireteam is ambushed by heavy Fallen reinforcements. The fireteam kills Aksor, Archon Priest.''
 
*'''Ghost''': It was better off in the Prison of Elders. I'll contact the [[Vanguard]]. Let them know the Archon Priest is dead.
 
*'''Cayde-6''': One more Fallen Archon gone to dust. Good. But if the Fallen found the Prison of Elders, I'm sure we'll be hearing about more heists like this. Today, we celebrate.

==Trivia==
Winter's Run is thus far the only Taken version of a Strike that replaces the final boss with a Taken enemy. It is unusual in that it is not Askor who was Taken but another named character.
Winter's Run is the first Strike to have the boss be replaced by a Taken variant, depending on the version of the Strike. The second Strike to do this is [[The Nexus]]
