TranscriptEdit

Petra Venj: The Techeuns' calculations look promising so far. The next egg should be close.

Petra Venj: Be cautious. The Taken have already gained a foothold here.

Riven: They spread their influence with mindless fervor—much like Awoken royalty.

The Guardian opens and enters a portal, taking them to the Crossing

The Guardian arrives at and enters a portal, taking them to the Fetid Conduit

Riven: Wrath of the Queen, this is not your fight.

Riven: Somewhere out there, a pack of doomed corsairs waits for you.

Petra Venj: I'll be there. They know, I'll always be there.

Riven: You want to help them. You would do anything.

Petra Venj: I will. Without you.

The Guardian lights the three flames

Flamequeller Centurion appears

The Guardian defeats the Flamequeller Centurion and the Hordes of Taken

A portal opens, the Guardian enters taking them to Splintered Geode

Queen Mara Sov: You set obstacles in our path, mock our efforts—all while we seek to save your eggs.

Queen Mara Sov: Is gloating over the ruin you made of our home worth losing them forever?

Riven: You set the snare, then complain that I refuse to lay my neck within it.

Riven: To beg and weep for what you desire—that is not in me.

The Guardian defeats Ungoloth

The Guardian retrieves Riven's egg, and transmats it to Riven.

Queen Mara Sov: The Taken aren't the only creatures attempting to thwart us.

Queen Mara Sov: Riven seeks to entangle us in another loop—to keep us chasing down her clutch while the Witness runs rampant.

Riven: If this is a game, it suits your purposes. Sealing the eggs away, buying time for your broken Warlock to cheat me.

Riven: You have my terms. See this through, or make peace with your fate.
