| *The [[Worm]]s, an intelligent species able to wield the power of the [[Darkness]] directly, are trapped in the depths of a global ocean within one of the atmospheric layers of the gas giant [[Fundament]]. The Traveler's priest, a creature called [[Leviathan]], also dwells in the deeper Fundament and attempts to dissuade anyone from seeking them out. The Worms in turn begin calling across the stars to other species, seeking to lure one that can free them.<ref>Bungie (2014/9/9), Destiny: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard,[[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#IX:_The_Bargain|Grimoire:Books of Sorrow IX:The Bargain]]</ref><ref>Bungie (2014/9/9), Destiny: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#XVIII:_Leviathan_Rises|Grimoire:Books of Sorrow XVIII:Leviathan Rises]]</ref> As a result, hundreds of species migrate to Fundament and become stranded there - eking out a living on the shards of their broken worlds which become floating continents. One such species was the proto-[[Hive]], whose homeworld collided with Fundament and shattered. The proto-Hive survive and build a new civilization for themselves on the floating shards of their former homeworld, gradually forgetting their original history. <ref>Bungie (2014/9/9), Destiny: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire/Enemies/Darkness#Calcified_Fragments:_Curiosity|Grimoire:Calcified Fragment: Curiosity]]</ref>

| *At eight years of age, the proto-Hive [[Osmium King]] of the Osmium Court on Fundament sires his final brood of offspring, which include his three daughters [[Xivu Arath|Xi Ro]], [[Savathûn|Sathona]], and [[Oryx, the Taken King|Aurash]] who are tutored by sterile mother [[Taox]]. At ten years of age, the Osmium King begins to succumb to senility and madness; becoming consumed with ancient texts and obsessing over the movements of Fundament's moons, and the possibility of a catastrophic alignment called the Syzygy.<ref>Bungie (2014/9/9), Destiny: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#II:_The_Hateful_Verse|Grimoire:Books of Sorrow II: The Hateful Verse]]</ref>

| |
| *Fearing for the Osmium Court's future and believing the royal daughters were unsuited to rule, Taox secretly contacts the rival continent's Helium Drinkers of the Helium Court, inviting them to invade, assassinate the royal family, and install her as a subservient regent of the Osmium Court in exchange for engines capable of moving their continent. The Helium Drinkers agree, resulting in the Osmium Court's fall and the death of the Osmium King, but the royal daughters escape and vow to take revenge. <ref>Bungie (2014/9/9), Destiny: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#II:_The_Hateful_Verse|Grimoire:Books of Sorrow II: The Hateful Verse]]</ref><ref>Bungie (2014/9/9), Destiny: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#III:_The_Oath|Grimoire:Books of Sorrow III: The Oath]]</ref>

| |
| ===''[[Destiny]]''===
| |
|
| |
| *Seven centuries from the present day, a [[Ghost]] finds and revives its [[Guardian]] from just outside the ruins of the [[Cosmodrome]]. The Guardian is forced to fight off the [[Fallen]] while seeking out an ancient Arcadia-class [[Jumpship]] in [[Dock 13]]. The Jumpship is revived by The Guardian’s Ghost and the two travel to the [[City]], where the [[Speaker]] tasks this Guardian with finding the means to restore the Traveler before the Darkness returns and destroys the City once and for all.
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardian returns to where they found their ship and defeats the Fallen House of Devils' [[Archon]], [[Riksis, Devil Archon|Riksis]], obtaining a [[NLS Drive|warp drive]].
| |
|
| |
| *The Speaker requests that Guardians discover what the Fallen are keeping a tight hold of in [[Skywatch]]. The Guardian investigates and kills the Hive Wizard [[Gotra, Eir Spawn|Gotra]]. The Hive’s newly reported presence on Earth convinces the Vanguard to strike back at the Hive on the Moon. The Guardian recovers the Ghosts of the team of Guardians sent by [[Dead Orbit]].
| |
|
| |
| *The [[Vanguard]] report that Fallen are tearing into machines all over the Cosmodrome. Convinced they aren't just looting the place, the Guardian investigates, and discovers that [[Rasputin]] is still alive. Ignoring attempt to make contact by the Vanguard, Rasputin takes charge of the [[planetary defense network]]. The Guardian tracks down codes to activate ancient communication links to [[Golden Age]] colonies off world, once used by Dead Orbit.
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardian travels to Earth’s moon, following the trail of a Guardian who went dark searching for a way into the Hive [[Hellmouth|Fortress]].

| |
|
| |
| *The Guardian infiltrates the Hellmouth and destroys the legendary [[Sword of Crota]] after using it to hold off the Hive. The Guardian then descends deeper into the Hellmouth to a [[The World's Grave|Hive library]] which holds ancient secrets they have ripped from the Earth, before following a lead in a recording from the vanished Warlock Osiris to the [[Shrine of Oryx]] in the darkest corner of the Hellmouth. They kill Frigoris, a [[Baron]] of the House of Exile, and the Hive Knight [[Sardok, Eye of Oryx]], and destroy the Shrine after discovering that it is tethered to a power far beyond the system, presumed to be Oryx himself.
| |
|
| |
| *The Speaker issues an urgent transmission to Guardians on all channels, claiming that they have discovered the existence of a dark ritual site under the surface of the [[Moon]] that is draining the Traveler of its [[Light]], and that nothing is currently more important than stopping it. After receiving a transmission from the [[Exo Stranger]], inviting them to find her if they are successful on the Moon, the Guardian kills the Siphon Witches, freeing the Traveler from the Hive's parasitic influence, allowing it to regain its Light and begin to heal.
| |
|
| |
| *The Ghost traces The Stranger’s transmission to the Ishtar Region of Venus where after defeating a hoard of [[Vex]] forces, the Stranger meets with the Guardian to warn them of the impending threat of the Vex and their attempts to rewrite reality, before instructing the Guardian to find the Black Garden and “rip out its Heart” in order to heal the Traveler.
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardian then travels to the Ishtar Collective and revives one of it's many research stations in order to analyze a Vex Mind Core sample, before searching out the collective's lost Archive sealed away in a Vault beneath the surface of the planet.
| |
|
| |
| *After assaulting a Fallen Ketch to assassinate [[Draksis, Winter Kell|Draksis]] the [[Kell]] of the [[House of Winter]], the Guardian's Ghost informs them that only the [[Awoken]] know how to get into the Black Garden and that they must speak with them to obtain its location.
| |
|
| |
| *A Hunter witnesses a titanic conflict between Cabal forces and Vex machinery upon Mars while tracking [[Valus Ta'aurc]]; and Rasputin devastating both sides with orbital weaponry. The Vex vanish and the Cabal are in disarray, with Ta'aurc ordering "the [[Psion Flayers|Flayers]]" to be set loose "... and find the source!"
| |
|
| |
| *The Queen's [[Uldren Sov|brother]] agrees to help the Guardian if they bring him the eye of a Vex [[Zydron, Gate Lord|Gate Lord]]'s eye. The Guardian obliges, and the Prince reluctantly gives coordinates for the [[Spire]].
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardian then seeks out the source of the Vex surges and discovers they are returning to the Black Garden. After expelling the [[Cabal]] from the [[Freehold|buried city]], the Guardian seizes control of the Garden's [[Spire]], using it to repower the Gate Lord's eye and infiltrate the Black Garden, destroying its heart. Returning to the Tower, the Guardian watches the Speaker give a victory speech from the Hangar while conversing with the Stranger who says the fight has only begun, and then abruptly leaves, giving the Guardian her rifle.
| |
|
| |
| *A Guardian fireteam is ordered by Zavala to destroy the [[House of Devils]]' [[Prime Servitor]], [[Sepiks Prime]], in the Cosmodrome, crippling the house's ability to wage war against the city.

|
| |
| *The Hive Forsaken are defeated at the Hellmouth by Guardians.

|
| |
| *[[The Undying Mind]] attempts to revive the Heart of the Black Garden and seal it away from Guardian assault. Luckily the Mind and the [[Sol Primeval]] assisting it are destroyed by Guardians.
| |
|
| |
| *After Guardians foil the invasion and Crota's resurrection, they journey into [[Oversoul Throne]] to destroy him for good.
| |
|
| |
| *With Crota dead, the Vanguard turns its attention to wiping out his generals. His direct servants are quickly eliminated including the executioner [[Urzok, the Hated]] and Crota's final general, Omnigul, who is assassinated after she makes a last stand near the [[Skywatch]].
| |
|
| |
| ===''[[House of Wolves (expansion)|The House of Wolves]]''===
| |
| *The [[Reef]] is betrayed by the Fallen [[House of Wolves]], led by the House's Kell, [[Skolas]], who wrests control of the [[House of Winter]] and declares himself as the Kell of Kells. In response the [[Queen]] of the Reef opens her realm to the Guardians to enact her vengeance.
| |
|
| |
| *Skolas' [[Silent Fang]] is stopped from usurping power from the House of Devils and the House of Kings on Earth.
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardians track Skolas from the wastelands of [[Old Russia]] to [[Venus]], before Skolas is eventually defeated after a final battle atop the [[Citadel]], where he attempts to use Vex technology to augment his army. He is captured by the Queen and sent to his death in the [[Prison of Elders]].
| |
|
| |
| *As Skolas' Wolves rampage through the system, the mercenary [[Taniks]], is hired by the Wolves to acquire the secrets of the Darkness from the Hive, but is killed on his ship, [[Kaliks-Syn]], during a Guardian strike.
| |
|
| |
| *The Queen of the Reef gives Skolas to [[Variks]] for use in the Prison of Elders and instructs Variks to begin allowing Guardians into the Prison of Elders to do combat with the captors for unknown reasons.<ref> Grimoire: Skolas Fate </ref>
| |
|
| |
| ===''[[The Taken King]]''===
| |
|
| |
| *Eris Morn alerts [[Mara Sov]] of Oryx's arrival, and the Queen sets out with the Awoken armada to Saturn, where the Taken King's Dreadnaught and a massive fleet of Hive ships have amassed, presumably to invade Earth.
| |
|
| |
| *[[Uldren Sov]] leads his fighter wings to attack the [[Dreadnaught]] and engage the fleet of [[Hive warship]]s and [[Tombship]]s protecting it, with the Queen and Oryx presiding over the battle from their respective flagships. With help from her Coven of [[Techeun|Techeun Witches]], the Queen summons her [[Harbingers]].The Harbingers bombard the Dreadnaught, but leave no lasting marks on the battlecruiser. Oryx then fires the ship's superweapon, which rips a hole through the rings of Saturn and smashes the Awoken fleet. Queen Mara Sov and many other major parts of the Reef's leadership, including [[Paladin]] [[Abra Zire]], and Techeun [[Shuro]], have since disappeared and are considered MIA, while [[Petra Venj]] has advised all remaining Paladins to declare all of them dead. Though the Dreadnaught itself is unscathed, Oryx's fleet is obliterated and he is halted from attacking Earth directly.
| |
|
| |
| *The [[Vanguard]] intercepts a distress signal on all channels, broadcasting from the [[Skyburners]] fortress of [[Cabal|Korus]] on [[Phobos]]. A Guardian is dispatched to Phobos in order to investigate, but upon their arrival they find the Skyburners have been slaughtered. Oryx contacts the Guardians, willing into existence the first wave of his army of corrupted [[Cabal]] and Hive called the [[Taken]]. The Guardian defeats these Taken, overcoming [[Syrok, Word of Oryx]]. They then attempt to escape the Skyburner Keep via the [[Aerodrome]] landing pad, which is riddled with Taken. The Guardian reaches the [[transmat]] zone and is pulled back to the Tower.
| |
|
| |
| *Realizing the Taken to be too deadly a threat to take lightly, the Vanguard send Guardians to rediscover lost powers of their forebearers. The [[Hunter]] gains the [[Nightstalker]] class and the [[Shadowshot]] super ability, the [[Warlock]] gains the [[Stormcaller]] class and the [[Stormtrance]] super ability, and the [[Titan]] gains the [[Sunbreaker]] class and the [[Hammer of Sol]] super ability.
| |
|
| |
| *The Vanguard locates Oryx's Dreadnaught in orbit of Saturn and analyzes its super weapon. Hunter Vanguard Cayde-6 directs the Guardian to one of the dead [[colony ship]]s in Old Russia, where he had previously hidden a [[NLS Drive|stealth drive]] capable of getting Guardians past the super weapon into the Dreadnaught to face Oryx. Upon touching down in the Blast, just outside of the Fallen House of Devils' lair, the Guardian discovers that the Taken have attacked Earth and have overwhelmed the Fallen. They then recover a stealth drive before defeating an [[Echo of Oryx]] and returning to the Tower.
| |
|
| |
| *With the stealth drive equipped, the Guardian evades Oryx super weapon and infiltrates the Dreadnaught. The Guardian then proceeds to disable the super weapon, and break into the crashed Cabal gunship, [[Dantalion Exodus VI]], and steals information that the Cabal have secured on Oryx. Learning of a portal called the Rupture, the Guardian travels to back to the Moon where they obtain enough of Crota's essence to become [[Hive|Ascendant]]. They then infiltrate the Rupture and defeat Oryx's physical form, forcing his soul to retreat deeper into his ship until a team of six Guardians finishes him off for good.
| |
|
| |
| *With the arrival of Oryx, Cabal detachments across Mars and Phobos suffered enormous casualties. The Cabal are nearly annihilated until their reserve force, the [[Skyburners]] are deployed in a direct attack on the Dreadnaught. After the Skyburner's [[Primus Ta'aun|Primus]] is [[taken]] though, their offensive crumbles. A lone unit aboard the Cabal ship, Dantalion Exodus VI, sends a distress signal to the head of the Empire, only to be wiped out by Guardians. Nevertheless their message is believed to have reached its intended target.
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardians stop [[Theosyion, the Restorative Mind]] from bringing back Sekrion, Nexus Mind from the past and completing Venus' transformation into a Vex machine world.
| |
|
| |
| *Guardians answer [[Rasputin]]'s call for aid in fending off a Fallen attack led by [[S.A.B.E.R.-2]], a giant super-powered Shank.
| |
|
| |
| *Guardians prevent a Cabal assault team led by [[Valus Tlu'urn]] and [[Valus Mau'ual]], from blowing up the [[Dreadnaught]]'s core, saving the entire system from certain doom.
| |
|
| |
| *[[Alak-Hul, the Darkblade]] is found imprisoned aboard Oryx's Dreadnaught and is slain in his [[Dreadnaught|Sunless Cell]] by a Guardian Fireteam tasked by Eris Morn to eliminate a contender for the Osmium Throne.
| |
|
| |
| *On Venus, Guardians return to the emptied Vault of Glass hoping to rescue Praedyth from his timeless prison, but discover [[Morphon, Blighted Mind]], a Vex Hydra tasked by Oryx to co-opt [[the Nexus]]' power, is blighting and corrupting the Vex network. Luckily for the Vex, Morphon is destroyed by Guardians, and Praedyth is freed from their control, his centuries-old remains found in a small room within the Vault.
| |
|
| |
| *Guardians destroy a Taken infestation blighting the House of Winter's Lair while searching for a missing Archon prisoner, and kill [[Nixis, Hunger of Oryx]].
| |
|
| |
| *The House of Wolves regroups on Mars and rebuilds their previous Prime Servitor, [[Orbiks Prime]]. Under Orbiks' direction, the Wolves attempt to establish a base in the Blind Legion's former [[The Legion's Keep|keep]], coming into conflict with local Cabal forces. The Guardian tracks down Orbiks Prime and eliminates it, scattering the House of Wolves once more.
| |
|
| |
| *A Taken Warbeast, [[Malok, Pride of Oryx]], attempts to rally the remaining Taken from the Hellmouth. Malok is discovered however and a strike team eliminates him in a last stand at the Shrine of Oryx.

| |
| *The Fallen House of Devils begins digging into old Golden Age research labs all over the system, eventually returning to the Cosmodrome while shifting massive amounts of resources to a previously dark region of Old Russia. Concerned the [[SIVA]] Plague may have been discovered by the House of Devils, and unleashed upon the Cosmodrome, Lord Saladin personally leads the counterattack to contain the threat.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBYYyvO1BCA</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *A [[Devil Splicers|Fallen]] force captures Felwinter Peak. Unable to get there in time, Lord Saladin orders the Guardian to secure the observatory at the top before it is too late. After defending the mountaintop from several waves of Fallen forces, the Guardian reaches the [[Vostok Observatory|Iron Temple]] before defeating [[Sepiks Perfected]] in the courtyard, keeping the Fallen from the temple long enough for Saladin to arrive with reinforcements, but Sepiks exscapes.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBYYyvO1BCA</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *Lord Saladin then sends the Guardian to pursue Sepiks Perfected into a transformed Cosmodrome in order to learn the extent of the SIVA outbreak. In the Cosmodrome, the Guardian encounters the Hive who are being driven out into the open somehow. The Guardian then seeks out a monitoring station responsible for keeping the sensor grid online and retrieves vital sensor logs that provide valuable insight into the Fallen activity. <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBYYyvO1BCA</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *Pushing further into the Cosmodrome, the Guardian discovers that the Fallen have taken control of several Golden Age gun positions near the [[Triglav Bunker]]. Upon reaching the Bunker, the Guardian destroys two SIVA enhanced shield generators before disabling the enemy guns.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4_UlmXmC3k</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *Back at the Iron Temple, Lord Saladin meets with the Guardian and tells them the story of the Iron Lords, and how they attempted to co-opt SIVA against all of Rasputin's attempts to stop them (including eliminating all but nine of the Iron Lords in the process). In the end, revealing how SIVA ultimately corrupted many of the Iron Lords by turning their weapons and armor against them, forcing [[Jolder]] to seal herself and all of the Iron Lords except for Saladin within the Bunker rather than let SIVA escape. Saladin then realizes the Fallen have not yet mastered SIVA, and sends the Guardian to meet with [[Tyra]], a Cryptarch well versed in the origins of SIVA, and also one who might know the source of the Fallen's discoveries.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4_UlmXmC3k</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *The Guardian then travels to an old Clovis Bray research lab following a hunch from [[Timur]], who believes the answer to the Fallen's weakness may lie with the ancient SIVA prototypes. After clearing the facility of the Cabal, the Guardian locates an old archive that reveals information on several types of nanotech designed for differing purposes. The Guardian is then attacked by a Cabal force which they promptly eliminate before returning to the Iron temple.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrgDomOfIBU</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *Communing with the Guardian, Lord Saladin informs them that [[Shiro-4]] has analyzed the Clovis Bray data and found a way to temporarily disrupt the Splicers' control over it. The Guardian is then tasked to descend into the SIVA replication complex in order to cut its ability to replicate itself. On the way, they reverse the power cells in the SIVA reactor, temporarily cutting off the Splicer's SIVA supply. Infiltrating [[the Archon's Keep]], the Guardian descends deeper into the facility and after confronting the [[Remnant of Felwinter]], destroys the SIVA Replicator via a self destruct mechanism.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNpSU3A_kfo</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *Returning to the Iron Temple once more, the Guardian gives Jolder's broken helmet to Saladin. Lord Saladin thanks the Guardian and subsequently gifts them a Sword, pronouncing the Guardian as the next generation of Iron Lords.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3f9kZVXReM</ref>
| |
|
| |
| *Having observed that the Hive have begun hitting the Splicers near a beached Tanker, Shiro tasks the Guardian with discovering why they are at each other's throats. The Guardian arrives at the [[Giant's Husk]] expecting to encounter hostilities, but finds the Hive engaged in all out war. After the Guardian recovers a coded relay from a defeated Devil Splicer, Shiro deduces that the Hive may be attempting to reclaim something stolen and tasks the Guardian with exploring the Overpass for further clues. Working off of the pointers obtained from their exploration, the Guardian takes off for the Archon's keep in search of Hive or Fallen activity. At the keep, the Guardian discovers the Fallen Splicers are experimenting with the Hive, prompting them to seek out the Splicer's High Priest in order to end his madness.

| *[[Kovik, Splicer Priest]] invades a Hive nest located within [[Bunker Triglav]]. After a team of Guardians destroy a network of [[SIVA Node]]s, which are augmenting the Silos' old defense protocols and keeping the facility sealed tight, they descend into the Hive Nest and kill Kovik, as well as a captive Hive [[Kovik's Monster|Ogre]] the Fallen Priest had infused with SIVA.<ref> http://www.dailydot.com/parsec/destiny-rise-of-iron-new-strike-the-wretched-eye/</ref>

| |
|
| |
| *Another Guardian Fireteam descends into the Hellmouth to stop the Devil Splicers from stealing unborn Hive Ogres for their crazed rituals, and eliminate them, killing the Hive Abomination the Devils nearly took also.
