Expunge: Styx is a story mission introduced in the Season of the Lost. Players are tasked to breach into the Vex Nexus and to collapse the domain by eliminating the Oppressive Mind.

The mission later returns as Expunge: Corrupted Styx as it is discovered that a Taken incursion of the domain prevented its collapse. Players are once again tasked with venturing into the domain and to eliminate the reborn Oppressive Mind.

Styx Transcript

(Mission Begins)

The Guardians enter the Distributed Cognition Domainand traverse deeper.

  • Mithrax: Do you feel that? The more you explore the Vex domain, the more I feel an all-seeing eye upon us. Ever watchful, ever seeking. We trespass in dimensions not meant for either of us.

The Vex detect the Guardians and begin a purge throughout the Domain.

  • Mithrax: The Vex have enacted a purge sweep of the domain. We should stay ahead of it.

The Guardians enter the Styx Domain.

  • Mithrax: A layer of barriers defends this realm, a mighty fortress that resists brute force. Cunning is the key here, Guardian. If you overload that thought-conduit with an attack, you may be able to capture Vex data.

The Guardians collect a Vex Authentication Key.

  • Mithrax: That fragment of Vex data can be used to splice a bypass in their security, granting us access to the Oppressive Mind at this domain's core. I have helped as much as I can. You tread uncharted paths.. solving this enigma is up to you, and the skills you have been given.

The Guardians use an Authentication Key to destabilise the first security layer.

  • Mithrax: The barrier has destabilized. You will need to continue to chip away at the defenses to destroy it entirely.

The Guardians destabilise the Vex firewall and challenge Dikast, Oppressive Mind.

  • Mithrax: The Oppressive Mind rises to face us. Show it the power of a Splicer.

Dikast, Oppressive Mind is defeated

  • Mithrax: With your Light, you are unweaving a reality the Vex have forced upon us. The tapestry of their design continues to fray. But this way far from over.
  • Osiris: Lakshmi is certain that our continued efforts, combined with Future War Cult's technology, can locate the source of the Endless Night.
  • Mithrax: I am aware of the device Lakshmi uses. Does it not worry you?
  • Osiris: In what way?
  • Mithrax: It is taxing on its user. To have one's consciousness fractured into countless splinters and rejoined again can be... harrowing.
  • Osiris: Lakshmi is up to the task.
  • Mithrax: This sort of technology is taboo among the Eliksni. But perhaps House Light can still offer some assistance. My engineers could improve on the design... make it easier for Lakshmi...
  • Osiris: No, no. The Black Armory has already provided the necessary enhancements for us. Lakshmi will manage. I'm confident. Besides, the less interaction Lakshmi has with your people at the moment... the better.
  • Mithrax: Yes, perhaps... perhaps you are right.
