When the player is about to enter the Chamber of Night to save the Traveler from a Hive ritual, she is able to send a transmission to them telling them they need to see her on Venus.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Chamber of Night (mission)|Chamber of Night]]''</ref>  
The Stranger made contact with the Guardian as they prepared to enter the Temple of Crota and descend into the Chamber of Night to save the Traveler from a Hive ritual. She remarked that they were interesting and had promise and admired their bravery, but commented that there were other threats which existed that they would not believed. The Stranger requested that they come find her if they lived and transmitted a set of meeting coordinates within the ruins of the [[Ishtar Collective]] on Venus.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Chamber of Night (mission)|Chamber of Night]]''</ref>  


Following the Stranger's coordinates, the Guardian travels to the [[Ishtar Sink]] on [[Venus]], where they are ambushed by alien cyborgs known as the [[Vex]]. After reactivating an extensive series of sensors established by other Guardians to track these machines, the Guardian meets with the Exo Stranger in the [[Ishtar Academy]]. There, she informs them of the [[Black Garden]], the birthplace of the Vex, and a powerful entity responsible for keeping the [[Traveler]] in a state of catatonia. She explains to them that the only way to heal the Traveler is to destroy the heart in the Black Garden.<ref name = "Destiny: Official E3 Gameplay Experience Trailer">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLw2gyMFmq40oO00fgBLOsytpbUkNaNypj&v=LIxxsw7TNd4&feature=player_detailpage ''Destiny: Official E3 Gameplay Experience Trailer'']</ref><ref name="Call"/>
Following the Stranger's coordinates, the Guardian traveled to the [[Ishtar Sink]] on Venus, where they fought through the Vex to reach the meeting coordinates in the [[Ishtar Academy]]. Once the Vex within were destroyed, the Stranger revealed herself to the Guardian, but deflected their questions about who she was and why she was watching them by noting they had little time and that she could not even explain why she was unable to give more answers. As she received a transmission from an unknown party, she reassured her ally that she would do something. When the Ghost questioned what she was saying, the Stranger informed him she was not talking to him and called him "little Light", much to his annoyance. The Stranger addressed the Guardian once more and noted they succeeded where many other strong Guardians failed, but was interrupted once more by her mysterious partner and reassured them that she was with the Guardian and their Ghost. She quickly explained that the Vex were the reason she had summoned them, and the Ghost realized that she was not a Guardian. The Stranger noted that while she was not reborn in the Light, she believed that working with those her were could do much good while crushing a damaged Vex beneath her boot.<ref name="Call"/>


Before the Guardian could ask any more questions however, the Stranger suddenly vanishes following a mysterious conversation with an unknown individual. Ghost suggests they go to the [[Awoken]] in order to find the Garden's location. Wistfully he wonders if they could stay with the Vex, as the idea of traveling far into danger was not something he liked, and the Guardian jokingly calls him "little light" after the Stranger's remark.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[A Stranger's Call]]''</ref>
The Stranger then informed them of the [[Black Garden]], the birthplace of the Vex, and a powerful entity responsible for keeping the [[Traveler]] in a state of catatonia. She explains to them that the only way to heal the Traveler is to destroy the heart in the Black Garden. When they asked for aiding in finding the Black Garden, the Stranger sadly noted that she had a different path to walk. The Ghost suggests speaking with the [[Awoken]] instead, an idea the Stranger agrees with, although she notes that they waver between the Light and the Darkness and states that she believes that they all must choose a side, even if is the wrong one. Upon another transmission from her ally, the Stranger drew her weapon and asked how many foes they were facing. Upon hearing their response, she told them to kill their engines, hold position, and avoid being found before teleporting away and leaving the Guardian and their Ghost behind to follow her clues, along with a new nickname for the Ghost despite his irritation.<ref name="Call"/>
