*'''Ikora Rey: '''This realm is still very much a mystery; we have no idea what else is out there.
''Hive Wizards gather for a ritual at the shrine.''


''Or alternatively''
The Guardian defeats the wizards.
 
*'''Ikora Rey:''' Now we know what Xivu Arath was planning for her Wrathborn armies. She intends to conquer the Ascendant Plane. 
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Ikora Rey:''' A whole reality, sculpted by strength of will... and all we've seen are the tiniest edges of the Ascendant Plane. 
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Ikora Rey:''' Ikora: I wonder if the Scorn's presence here has anything to do with Calus's horrific experiments aboard the Glykon? 
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' Be mindful when navigating for the beacons, Guardian. Lest you wind up lost as well.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Petra Venj:'' The Taken infest every corner of the Ascendant Plane I've seen, like tendrils of some great fungus, ever-spreading. 
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' I've never seen the Taken, Hive, and Scorn coordinate like this before... it's troubling. 
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Each time you align a beacon, you repair the damage done to this realm. May it one day be returned to its former glory.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' There is a malevolent force at work in this plane, Guardian. I can feel it slithering like black water over stones.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' What horrors have my Techeuns endured in their wayward state? I pray they return to me as they once were.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' The Hive force their way into this dimension like brutish thieves, sculpting the plane with crass disregard for its elegance.
 
---
 
''The Guardian frees the Techeun and leaves the Ascendant Realm.''
 
*'''The Crow:''' There's something about this place that's just... I can't shake the feeling of dread. Like something out of a bad dream. And not just the time the High Celebrant threw me in that pit. [sighs] It's like this place is haunting me.
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' Or you're haunting it. The Ascendant Plane is as much what you bring to it, as it is what you see.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Saint-14:''' How did these Tech Witches come to be lost in the Ascendant Plane?
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' They were my escorts; ferrying me home from the far-off reaches. Xivu Arath found us in transit.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' The far-off reaches of where? How did Xivu find you? Do you not have more witches?
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' You ask too many questions.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Yes. It is how I understand things. And I am owed answers.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Then I hope you'll soon become accustomed to mystery.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Why are we working with Savathûn? Is it a trick where we lie and kill her instead?
 
*'''The Crow:''' Because sometimes you have to take risks to do what's important, like stopping Xivu Arath.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' And save Osiris, yes. You trust her?
 
*'''The Crow:''' I don't know... maybe? I want to. I don't suppose you've tried beating his location out of her?
 
*'''Saint-14:''' No one lets me get close enough to do so, but I will keep trying.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''The Crow:''' Awkward question, given the timing... can someone fact check my knowledge about the Ascendant Plane? Some of what I know came from... "Osiris," and I'd rather be safe than sorry.
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' It's the backstage of the universe, Crow. Sculpted by willpower and imagination. What do they teach you in the City?
 
*'''The Crow:''' Mostly point, shoot, and jump.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Ikora Rey:''' The Taken presence here is overwhelming. With Quria defeated, I assumed Savathûn would have lost control of them. But... they seem just as organized. Just as directed. By whose hand?
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' There are greater things in the dark than Hive Gods, Ikora. The Black Fleet's powers are vast. Oryx did not invent the Taken... he merely borrowed them.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Every Tech Witch we rescue gets us one step closer to finding Osiris.
 
*'''The Crow:''' Good. He won't wait long.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Perhaps we find Osiris before Savathûn's plan hatches. Then we let Xivu Arath tear her to pieces.  


*'''The Crow:''' That sounds dangerous. I wouldn't want to feed one Hive god to another.
''Something stirs in the crypt.''
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Yes, but it is entertaining to picture.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' I can feel the radiance of the beacons permeating through the Ascendant Plane. You have persevered in realms where others have failed time and again.
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' No cause for celebration yet. There's more work to be done.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Still. Any measure of progress is to be appreciated, is it not, my Wrath?
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Ikora Rey:''' The pieces of the moon drifting in this realm... they all seem to be footholds for Xivu Arath's forces.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Indeed. The Hive god of war has been aggressively sweeping up territory and crashing it into the borders of our own domain. Not entirely unlike a Hive war moon, hollowed out and thrust into a conflict.
 
*''Ikora Rey:''' A staging ground for this invasion?
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Possibly. Or more likely, an invasion yet to come.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' Each time you ignite the beacons, you're doing more than just lighting waypoints. These beacons also help stabilize the Ascendant Plane, keeping it from shifting and changing. By your actions, you are making stable routes through the plane and reinforcing it against change and intrusion. In essence, creating a barrier that Xivu Arath's forces will crash against like a violent tide. And hopefully break.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''The Crow:''' Ley Lines. Why is this the first I've heard of them? Savathûn never mentioned them. Not even when we were hunting Xivu Arath's High Celebrant through the Ascendant Plane.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' We Awoken understand many forgotten cosmic truths. The existence of Ley Lines is but one. Savathûn knows of them too. But you expected the Witch Queen to tell you the truth? Don't be so naive, my darling.
 
*'''The Crow:''' What did you call me?
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' This is a world divided. With the Techeuns, we can begin to stabilize it. I am presenting you with this responsibility, Guardian.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' To my knowledge, the downfall of the Dreaming City is not the doing of Guardians.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Guardians found a cracked pane of glass and decided to crash through it. Now that I've returned to the scattered pieces, you feign ignorance to how they got there.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' I am not feigning ignorance. I am ignorant. I was dead for a very long time, you see.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Yes, Osiris spoke of you frequently during our visits.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Then you understand that if he does not return, you answer to me.
 
*'''Mara Sov:''' Fear not, Saint. Everything is as it should be. Do your part, and I will do mine.
 
''Or alternatively''
 
*'''Saint-14:''' This place is a maze.
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' Which is why we established guides. Lanterns. Beacons.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' Geppetto tells me these are, uh... nodes, and that they are connected.
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' Yes, by Ley Lines. They are like primordial currents you can navigate between worlds.
 
*'''Saint-14:''' I see. Places share memories... have relationships. Just like us, they have seen so much.
 
*'''Petra Venj:''' Something like that.

Transcript[edit]

The Guardian investigates enemy activity: 'Dark Ritual'.

Hive Wizards gather for a ritual at the shrine.

The Guardian defeats the wizards.

Something stirs in the crypt.

  • Mara Sov:This shrine is defiled by their presence. See that the orb they stole is returned to the mausoleum beneath the cathedral.

The Guardian picks up the relic and returns it to the crypt.

  • Mara Sov:This mausoleum is a memorial to a Techeun, Melorii, the first Wayfinder to traverse this Ley Line.

The Guardian deposits the relic at Melorii's statue.

A dark power nears. The Apocalyptic blade approaches the Guardian.

  • Mara Sov:Melorii was brilliant, like a star burning in the blackness of space. A beacon for others; aspirational. But it was her insatiable curiosity that took her life when she ventured into the Black Garden against her wishes... and never returned.

---

The Guardian investigates enemy activity: 'Ley Lines'.

Blights corrupt the harrowed cliffs.

The Guardian destroys one of the them.

  • Mara Sov:Taken infestations, spreading like a cancer through the Ley Lines. These need to be cleared.

The Guardian clears more blight infestations. They enter into a well.

  • Mara Sov:The source of this corruption is at hand. Find it and destroy it.

The blighted heart births an abomination in the well.

  • Mara Sov:These wells once served as springs of Ascendant energy used by our Techeuns to sculpt structures such as this. Now they are barren parodies of their once-noble purpose. One day, perhaps, they will shine again.

---

The Guardian found a corsair's cache in the Ascendant Realm.

  • Mara Sov:This cache marks a memorial. Long ago, a Techeun fell here. Not one you're searching for — she was much older. One of those who first forded the lines, a cartographer who gave her life to the void. She ventured into the unknown, and we knew the safe path only by how long her light lasted before it gave out. I may tell you her name someday. She was a friend. And now, she is part of the stream. I will not allow Xivu Arath to defile her sacrifice.

Or alternatively

  • Mara Sov:This cache contains planar telemetry about an attempted breach of the Ascendant Plane from somewhere else. The paracausal can influence this place with thought; tie two ends of our world together with their willpower. Something ruptured this space with the power of its desire alone.

Or alternatively

  • Mara Sov:Take a moment to orient yourself, Guardian. This cache is placed on a set navigation point — a landmark in the plane. Moving through these realms can be misleading. You desire something so badly that it changes. You hear it calling to you. But it is only a rippling mirage, your desires twisting the energies of the plane. You can trust in those visions only as much as you trust in yourself.
