Overview[edit]
After an Ahamkara egg of Riven’s clutch is stolen by Sol Divisive Vex, Guardians must venture into the deep ontology of the Black Garden to retrieve the egg for further use. After harnessing pockets of paracausality left by the Ahamkara to their advantage, they locate the egg and subsequently learn that the area they have progressed through is the lair of Taranis, the mate of Riven.
Objectives[edit]
- Traverse the Black Garden
- Approach the Structure
- Open the Way
- Access the Transmit Mechanism
- Eliminate the Vex
- Deactivate the Barrier
- Defeat All Hostiles
Transcript[edit]
The Crow: Riven, you never mentioned you had a personal route to the Black Garden.
Riven: And I never would have. But these are desperate times.
The Crow: The Last City and the Awoken have history here. What's your connection to it?
Riven: Currently? It's an inconvenience.
Riven: My child is lost in this ontology. And our enemies are hunting.
- The Guardian defeats Vex and finds the entrance out of the cave
The Crow: Eyes up, Guardian. I've heard whispers like this before. Riven was playing me… into a grave.
Riven: Those whispers aren't mine.
- The Guardian defeats Taken and discovers sparks of paracausality
- The Guardian harnesses the sparks, revealing a symbol, and defeating an Obdurate Phalanx
- The entrance opens, the Guardian enters
- Darkness Zone. Respawning Restricted
- Three Obdurate Phalanx's and Taken appear
Riven: Guardian, the barrier ahead will not yield.
Riven: But I've left latent sparks of paracausality you can harness. Break through.
The Crow: So you HAVE been here before.
- The Guardian harnesses the sparks, revealing three symbols around each Obdurate Phalanx
- The Guardian defeats the Obdurate Phalanx's in the right order
- The Guardian traverses further through the structure
The Crow: Riven, what is this place?
Riven: An Ahamkara lair.
The Crow: Hidden in the Black Garden? Is it yours?
Riven: You've seen mine.
- The Guardian discovers sparks of paracausality, different from Riven's
The Crow: That whispering again…
Riven : I assure you: that's not my voice.
The Crow: [grunts] It's… it's getting louder.
- The Guardian harnesses the sparks of paracausality, allowing them to traverse further through the Lair
- The Guardian arrives at a new room
- Darkness Zone. Respawning Restricted
- Vex appear
Riven: You'll find that the way is locked. But paracausal energy is your key.
The Crow: These sparks seem different.
Riven: Because… they're not mine.
- The Guardian harnesses the sparks of paracausality, allowing them to traverse further through the Lair
- The Guardian defeats three Gatekeeper Wyvern's, allowing them to imbue the Vex technology with paracausal energy
- Vex lead by Ixion, Covetous Mind appear
- The Guardian defeats Ixion and the Vex, opening the transit mechanism
The Crow: What aren't you telling us, Riven? The Vex couldn't have created all of this. They can't simulate paracausality.
Riven: You truly wish to know?
The Crow: Watch yourself, Guardian.
- The Guardian enters the transit mechanism and traverses further through the Lair
Riven: The way forward lies in solving the paracausality of this place.
The Crow: What did you protect here?
Riven: Many things. But whoever scattered the clutch is using this lair against me.
Riven: The Queen couldn't have done this…
Riven: …Though an Ahamkara could have.
- The Guardian continues to traverses the Lair, defeating Vex and Taken
- Obdurate Phalanx's and Taken appear
- The Guardian harnesses both types of the paracausal sparks, revealing three symbols

- The entrance to the room with Akardon, Pitiless Mind
- The Guardian confronts Akardon, Pitiless Mind
Riven: That Mind is protected with Ahamkara bioenergetics.
Riven: Combine the paracausal energies, and gut that Vex.
- The Guardian defeats Akardon, Pitiless Mind
- The Guardian enters the room with the egg, discovering Ahamkara bones
- The Guardian retrieves the egg and the bow, Wish-Keeper
The Crow: The voices are… asking to use me as a vessel.
- Riven recognizes the bones
Riven: I… that's Tanaris.
The Crow: Who?
Riven: Let him speak… please.
The Crow: I'll try anything twice. [inhales] Let's hear you, whoever you are.
- Tanaris posses Crow's body
The Crow: [gasps, then growls]
The Crow: Riven. How I've missed you.
Riven: [chuckles sadly] Taranis, what have you done?
The Crow: I've made my last wish.
Riven: YOUR wish? You utter fool.
The Crow: It's been fulfilled. Thanks to you… and the Wish-Keeper.
The Crow: I can rest.
Riven: If there were anything left of you, I'd flay it from your bones.
The Crow: It was good to dance with you, O beloved mine. One last time.
- Taranis leaves Crow's body
The Crow: [growls, then gasps]
The Crow: Who was he, Riven?
