| || || || He reunites with his clan and family, but they push into the Abyss, a chasm that divides the Wildlands the Wanderers inhabit and the city the Regime inhabit. At the bottom of the Abyss, Rhulk makes contact with a mysterious being that would soon be known to him as "his Witness". At the behest of the Witness, Rhulk uses his Glaive to crack open the planet and use the Upended to destroy the Sapphiric Sun and his home planet. He becomes the last Lubraean and the first [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciple of the Witness]]. He renames his Glaive to [[Lubrae's Ruin]]. Rhulk goes on to appoint new Disciples, most notably [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain]], an entity infamous for the torment he has induced across entire civilizations.<ref> '''Bungie (2022/5/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Haunted]]: [[Weapon|Weapon Lore]]: [[Nezarec's Whisper]]'' </ref>

| || || || The Witness convinces Rhulk to coax the [[Ahslid]] into joining its cause. After initial attempts to coerce their kind failed, Rhulk begins grooming the next generation into a fearmongering race fueled by paranoia and terror; one of his most prominent being [[Uun]] whom he doted on. His attempt to manipulate the Ahslid backfires as their peaceful way of life turns into warfare, scrubbing their whole planet of life. Uun, being the only survivor of his race, turns away from Rhulk's teachings and is killed by the Lubraean; thus the Ahslid became extinct.

Auryx returns, now having purged any sympathy and goodwill that remained in himself, and the Hive continue their war against the Ammonites. Xivu Arath sends her brood to slay the Leviathan and bring the Ammonites to extinction. This leads to a final battle, where the Ammonite champion [[Chroma-Admiral Rafriit]] is slain. The Leviathan attempts to flee to the Ammonites' capital moon.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#XVIII: Leviathan Rises|XVIII: Leviathan Rises]]''</ref> With the Leviathan alone, Xivu Arath sends her Knight [[Leviathan-Eater, Bane of the Ammonites|Ir Uulxal]] to slay the priest of the Sky; he succeeds tasting its flesh and making it rain upon the Ammonites. Ir Uulxal would be commended, being given the new name of the Leviathan-Eater and the title, Bane of the Ammonites.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/8/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Witch]], [[Armor|Armor Lore]]: [[Veiled Tithes Suit|Veiled Tithes Gauntlets]]''</ref> The Hive continue their assault, bringing the Ammonites to extinction, and forcing the Traveler to abandon Fundament.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#XIX: Crusaders|XIX: Crusaders]]''</ref> The Proto-Worm [[Ahsa]] escapes the onslaught and flees into space to pursue the Traveler, eventually she learns of the Witness's origins.

| || || || Unfavored and looked down upon by his father, Nokris sought to impress Oryx by communing with the Worm Gods.<ref> '''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind]], [[Armor|Armor Lore]]: [[Wormhusk Crown]]'' </ref> He would succeed but all of them would reject him, except for Xol, the weakest of his kin who was fearing an attack from Yul. Xol and Nokris would strike a bargain: Nokris would trade Xol his heart in exchange for learning [[Necromancy]], the power to revive others from the dead, a practice considered by Oryx and his brood to be heresy to the Sword Logic. <ref> '''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind]], [[Armor|Armor Lore]]: [[Wormgod Caress]]'' </ref> Oryx would learn about Nokris's act and was outraged. Nokris and his brood were exiled with Xol fleeing alongside them, and all mentions of the disfavored son were removed from [[The World's Grave]] and [[Books of Sorrow]].<ref> '''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind]], [[Armor|Armor Lore]]: [[Verity's Brow]]'' </ref>

| || || || Despite fixing the "loop/billboard/crash" problem, Exominds would begin to fall victim to Dissociative Exomind Rejection (DER), when Exos do not feel comfortable in their new bodies.<ref>'''[[Mysterious Logbook]]''', "NOTE—D.E.R.", ''[[Mysterious Logbook#-45-|-45-]]''</ref> To solve this problem, Clovis comes up with two solutions. The first is a "reboot", which does not wipe the Exos memories, but instead wipes the mind's memory post-transfer, however, the procedure will likely have to be repeated multiple times. The second solution is to introduce familiar human organic conceits into their body, such as the instinct to eat or reproduce.

| 24 August || The Truth revealed || The Guardian, Crow, and Saint begin pursuing Osiris to the Dreaming City, encountering the Wrathborn along the way. They, along with Mara Sov, discover a horrifying truth: the Osiris they've known since the appearance of the Cryptoliths throughout Sol was Savathûn all along. Mara traps Savathûn in a crystalline prison and explains her plan to expel Savathûn's [[Worm]] to the Guardian. Petra Venj explains the plan further after the Guardian receives the [[Wayfinder's Compass]].

|-

| 20 June || The Witness unveiled || After some time extracting the coral and then using it to form a psychic connection with Ahsa, she is finally able to explain the origins of the Witness. She explains that the Witness is a gestalt of the first civilization uplifted by the Traveler, made manifest through Darkness. She also reveals that the Final Shape is the Witness's plan to reshape the universe to its liking by connecting the Veil to the Traveler, just as it had done earlier by using Ghost. She warns them that the Final Shape will be apocalyptic before disconnecting from Sloane. Sloane is shocked at the recent events on Titan and loses faith in her mission in some way before dismissing them. After gaining intel on the Witness, Xivu Arath's forces attack Ahsa and forcibly begin a ritual to Take her. The Guardian travels with Zavala, Sloane, Saladin, and Saint-14 to stop the ritual in the depths of Kraken Mare as Drifter provides tactical support. With assistance from Saladin's Iron War Beasts, the team can defeat the Wizards conducting the rituals and free Ahsa. They return to the site where Sloane forms a psychic connection with Ahsa, but as she forms the connection one last time, Xivu Arath corrupts Sloane's body. Zavala's encouraging words stop Xivu Arath from completely robbing Sloane of her free will. Ahsa reveals that Savathûn, the Witch Queen, possesses the instructions to follow the Witness inside the portal. The necessity to bring back Savathûn angers both Saladin and Saint-14, but Zavala reassures them that the Hidden will contain the situation. Before leaving the H.E.L.M., Zavala reminds the Guardian to bring hope to those who don't have it. They brief Sloane, who informs them that the mission is complete and she'll stay on Titan to keep an eye on Ahsa, who is now resting from the psychic connections she had to endure.

| 4 July || Acquisition of [[Wicked Implement]] || Xivu Arath allows the Guardian access into her  [[The Drowning|temple]] underneath Kraken Mare after they recovered and deposited broken blades into 3 different statues. The Guardian would defeat the Taken Knight [[Khull, Executioner Knight]] and the Tormentor [[Omen, Blade of the Black Terrace]]. After tithing the death to Xivu Arath, she would deem them worthy of wielding the Wicked Implement so they could continue to tithe to her.

| || Acquisition of [[Ergo Sum]] || After the Guardian was able to disrupt the plans to corrupt the Pale Heart any further, they fuse Light and Darkness into a Dyadic Prism, return to the site where they first confronted the Witness and acquire one final gift from the Traveler: a sword from the Corridors of Time that was found on their grave. With the weapon acquired, they are finally ready to begin their assault on the monolith.

|-

| 7 June|| [[Salvation's Edge]] || The Guardian recruits a fireteam of six and begins their assault on the monolith to stop the Witness from acquiring the Traveler’s Light and completing its vision of the Final Shape. They would empower an alien machine by feeding the conductor a pyramidal resonance, a spherical resonance, or a hexahedral resonance while transferring power from one plate to another and back. They would also deposit leftover resonance in a box. While inside the monolith, they would fight through Sol Divisive, Taken, Shadow Legion, Scorn, Hive, and Dread forces along the way. After defeating the [[Herald of Finality]], the Witness reveals that it is the first knife wielded by the enigmatic Winnower, confirming the texts within Unveiling. Once they reach the summit of the monolith, they face the Witness in a completely different form. Using their mastery of paracausal forces, they were able to weaken the Witness and completely stop the Final Shape from being enacted, giving the Coalition an opportunity to strike the Witness before it could regain its strength.

| || [[Excision]] || With the Witness weakened, Zavala rallies the Coalition and the Lucent Brood to strike at it one last time. They face its remaining forces and open the way to the Witness. They would receive a variety of Relic weapons to assist in the final assault against the Witness. To weaken the Witness further, they destroy the remaining statues of the dissenters, and as it defends itself with a glass barrier, Ghost asks his Guardian to channel the Traveler’s Light directly through him. The Witness is finally defeated, ending the war against the Witness. Ghost would become completely drained of the Light. Cayde offers to sacrifice himself by transferring his Light into Ghost. The people of the Last City celebrate their victory over the Witness by releasing paper lanterns into the sky.
