The Light and Darkness Saga is the first saga of Destiny, which contains all content packs starting from Destiny and concluding with The Final Shape. [7]

Plot

The Light and Darkness Saga is about the Traveler and its battle against a force known as The Witness, fleeing across the galaxy to find powerful heralds of its power to combat opposing forces.

Destiny

Also referred to as A Guardian Rises, the initial campaign of Destiny follows a newly risen Guardian's journey throughout the solar system to find what is preventing the Traveler from healing after its fight with a mysterious foe during the Collapse. During their journey they encounter several hostile races. The scavenging and viscous raiders known as the Fallen, the zealous and swarming Hive, the Darkness-worshiping machines known as the Vex, and the militant warrior race known as the Cabal.

The Dark Below

A Hunter has returned from the darkness of the Hellmouth on the Moon, and she warns of a returning threat: Crota, Son of Oryx, the Hive god-prince who slaughtered thousands of Guardians during their initial invasion to take back the moon from the Hive. The Guardian is tasked by her to scour the Cosmodrome for his heralds to slow his revival, then finally confront the demon himself within the deepest recesses of the Moon and even his own domain.

House of Wolves

During their quest to find the Black Heart, the Guardian had struck a deal with the Queen of the Reef and also had learned she had a House of Fallen loyal to her. Now she reaches out to the Guardians to hunt down Skolas, Kell of Kells and his rebellion before they gain a foothold within the grander Fallen political scene, and perhaps even something more dangerous.

The Taken King

The God of the Hive has arrived in the Sol System, seeking vengeance for his son's death. With his own personal army in tow, a force no Guardian has faced, Oryx quickly takes complete control of the system and challenges The Guardian themselves to stop him. Now the go-to champion of the Last City, the Guardian, is sent by Eris Morn and Cayde-6, the Hunter Vanguard, to find a way to cleanse the system of the Taken rot and confront the God-King himself.

Rise of Iron

Lord Saladin, the last of the Iron Lords, has called upon the Guardian to take back Felwinter Peak, and in the process discovers something disturbing. SIVA, an ancient and unwieldly Golden Age technology, now is in the hands of the House of Devils Splicers. With Felwinter Peak reclaimed, the Guardian must now travel into the Plaguelands to stop SIVA and the rabid Fallen sect who worship it, and maybe even discover what truly happened to the Iron Lords.
