The Drifter's crew found a series of abandoned monolith-like structures on the planet, which they discovered contained [[Monolith creatures|strange, amorphous shadow-like creatures]] imprisoned in cryogenic suspension. They determined that these entities were the source of the Light-repressing fields and that they shared some characteristics with the [[Hive]], although the Drifter regretted not having a scientist among his crew who could study them better.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - Item Description: [[Ancient Apocalypse Armor (Warlock)#Ancient Apocalypse Robes|Ancient Apocalypse Robes]]''</ref> | The Drifter's crew found a series of abandoned monolith-like structures on the planet, which they discovered contained [[Monolith creatures|strange, amorphous shadow-like creatures]] imprisoned in cryogenic suspension.

They soon discovered that not all of the creatures were imprisoned in the monoliths and that some roamed out in the wild. One night while they slept in the frozen wilderness due to it still being warmer than inside the cryogenic monoliths, a member of the Drifter's crew froze to death but was unable to be revived by his Ghost due to the proximity of one of the creatures. | They soon discovered that not all of the creatures were imprisoned in the monoliths and that some roamed out in the wild.

A little over a year after they arrived, only the Drifter and three others remained, and their ship had ceased working due to the cold. The cold had killed them thousands of times, and they had been driven to near-insanity by their paranoia. As they settled in for another night in a monolith, they all suddenly lost their connection to the Light due to [[Dominus Ghaul]] entrapping the [[Traveler]] in a [[Traveler Cage|cage]]. However, they each believed that the others were responsible and drew their weapons. Unsure if they really intended to kill each other, the Drifter still lived up to his promise and murdered all three of his remaining companions.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - Item Description: [[Ancient Apocalypse Armor (Warlock)#Ancient Apocalypse Bond|Ancient Apocalypse Bond]]''</ref> | |||

The Drifter asked how they would do such a thing, as the creatures were undoubtedly dangerous.
