Battle of the Forges: Difference between revisions

===The Black Armory===

{{Quote|This right here is a token of the Black Armory's appreciation. Without it, they won't "appreciate" the presence of someone with your… job description. Tread carefully, friend. You won't find hospitality as warm as the Spider's behind their doors.|The Spider, after giving the Guardian a Black Armory Token.}}

After the events involving the [[Scorn]] and Riven's schemes in the [[Dreaming City]], the Guardian received a pass from the Spider, directing them to a hidden area within the Last City's walls, stating that it requires their attention. The Guardian takes the pass and after returning to the Last City, they find a secret passage within the wall that leads them to a hidden foundry filled with powerful and highly advanced weaponry, the [[Black Armory]]. They soon encounter the armory's curator, Ada-1, whom presently refuses them entry or to conduct business but relents after seeing they possess a pass.

===The Insurrection's Rampage===

{{Quote|Siviks was after much more than simply stealing and abusing our forge. His gaze has turned to our most prized possession: a vault, filled with the finest wares the Black Armory has to offer. Our very soul resides in that vault. It must be secured.|Ada-1.}}

Siviks grew furious over the Guardians' intervention and securing the forges, but the Kell's Scourge's leader had located the main vault of the Black Armory and sought to take it and claim the secrets and technology within. Gathering all of his forces and the technology they have stolen, Siviks launched an all-out attack on the Last City's outskirts, becoming the largest Fallen attack since the [[Twilight Gap]], the [[Scourge of the Past]] Raid. Not taking any chances, Siviks unleashed his most devastating weapon: [[Insurrection Prime, Kell's Scourge]], a massive mech-augmented [[Prime Servitor]] with enough destructive power to breach the Vault. Insurrection Prime would become one of the most powerful Prime Servitors ever encountered by the Guardians, rivaling [[Aksis, Archon Prime]] himself in sheer power. Despite the power of Sivik's army, the Guardians form a raid team and utilize the City's forces to combat the might of the Kell's Scourge head on.

===Clash over the Niobe Labs and discoverance of the Bergusia Forge===

{{Quote|It would appear that Project Niobe's purpose was to develop and produce enhanced prototypes. There are even sketchings. They appear to be some sort of… advanced weapon. One of the pages provides instructions for a vessel! Perhaps we should start there. It's time we discover for ourselves what Siviks is after.|Ada-1.}}

Seeking to bring an end to the conflict and to Siviks's ambitions, the Guardians pursue the Spider's mad brother but Ada-1 believes she knows where he might be going. The curator believes Siviks is heading to a secret Forge more valuable than the other, the [[Bergusia Forge]], located within the [[Niobe Labs]]. Following a trail left behind by the Black Armory's founders, the Guardians manage to find the labs but unfortunately, so does the Kell's Scourge.
