- Cayde-6: Ikora, if you tell me this is a practical joke...
- Cayde: Well, it kills me to say it, but I-I would be really impressed.
- Ikora Rey: Impressing you, Cayde, is the easiest thing I'll do all day.
- Commander Zavala: Let's get serious people.
- Cayde: Zavala!
- Cayde: This is my serious face. Can't you tell?
- Zavala: Ikora, what have you got?
- Ikora: Someone or something has sabotaged the Skyline Defense Systems.
- Cayde: And comms have been spotty for the last few hours.
- Zavala: Every sensor beyond the wall has gone dark.
- Zavala: Maybe it's just the storm.
- Zavala: Hmm...
- Zavala: Maybe it's...
- Zavala: What are the sat feeds telling us?
- Ikora: Nothing.
- Cayde: Well, that's good, right?
- Ikora: No!
- Ikora: I mean, they're not there.
- Ikora: There are no satellites.
- Cayde: And that's not good.
- Zavala: Battle stations!
- Zavala: Everyone with me! Now!
- Ikora: Hang on!
- Ghost: Repeat, Tower Approach, this is City Hawk seven-two-three. Anyone home...?
- Ghost: No response on any channels, even the emergency frequencies.
- Ghost: [Sigh] What is going on back there?
- Ghost: Remember when I told you that you fly too fast? Forget I said that. Fly fast.
{Gameplay}
- Tower Watch
- Defend your home.
- Find a way into the Tower and repel the attack.
- Ghost: We need to find Ikora, Zavala and Cayde.
- Ghost: Cabal!
- Ghost: This doesn’t make sense. The Cabal conquer systems by blowing up planets. Whatever they want, it must be here - in the Last City.
Zavala: This is Commander Zavala. Civilians: report to evac points. Guardians: rendezvous in the Plaza. Our City will not fall.
- Ghost: Cayde!
Cayde-6: Hey, you two! Give me a sec.
Cayde: Zavala’s doing the hero thing in the Plaza. Me? I’ve got a date with whoever’s behind this. It’ll be a short date.
- Find Zavala
- Fight your way to Zavala to help him defend the plaza.
Lord Shaxx [Ah Saladin’s Young Wolf! | Over here, Hunter/Titan/Warlock!] My armoury is open to you. Follow the path from there. It will lead you through the Hangar to the Plaza. I’ll take care of these people. If the Cabal want war, give them war.
- Gear up for the fight
- Acquire a weapon from Lord Shaxx’s personal armory.
- Ghost: We should really grab a gun and get moving.
The player acquires Origin Story and The Last Dance. Player opens armoury door and continues through Tower Military District
Tower PA (in background): Evacuation order seven-seven is in effect. This is not a drill. All civilians report to designated evacuation areas immediately..
- Tower Hangar
- Ghost: Look at the size of that thing. It must be their command ship.
- Ghost: I don’t want to be around when Amanda sees what happened to her tools
- Ghost: They’re not just assaulting the Tower. Look at the Traveler!
Cayde: OK. My Ghost keeps tagging these Cabal as “Red Legion.” Ikora, what do you got?
Ikora: They’re elite. Ruthless. And rumor is, they have never known defeat.
Zavala: Until today. Today, they face Guardians.
Ikora: But Zavala! They’re attacking the Traveler!
Zavala: The Traveler waits! We protect our people. At any cost.
- Fight with Zavala
- Rendezvous with the Vanguard Commander and repel a Red Legion attack.
- Tower Plaza
- Ghost: The Traveler… what is that… thing they’re attaching to it?
- Defend the Tower
- Assaults repelled
- [0-3] of 3
Zavala:These Red Legion are well trained. But we are better. We will hold this line until the last civilian is safely away.
- 1 of 3
Zavala: Incoming! Fall back to my shield!
- 2 of 3
Zavala: Don’t let them past the gate! The evac shuttles are back there!
Zavala: We hold here. That command ship - it’s next on my list
Zavala: Missiles! Stay inside my shield!
Zavala: More Red Legion! Show them what Guardians are made of!
Ikora: Zavala, the last of the shuttles is away. But the Speaker - he never made it. I’m going to look for him.
- Leave the Plaza and find the Speaker
- Meet Ikora Rey in the Tower Boulevard and join her search for the Speaker of the City.
Zavala: I’ve got the Plaza. Go with Ikora. Find the Speaker!
Ghost: We’re on it, Commander!
If the player delays leaving the Plaza:
Zavala: More drop pods! Go now!
Zavala: Rip Pod inbound! Get to the Speaker!
Ghost: Probably should catch up to Ikora.
Ghost: Now! We need to leave now!
Ghost: The Speaker - we can’t lose him.
Zavala: Another barrage! Incoming!
Ikora: Red Legion, you will take no more from us. And you will find no mercy in me!
- Ghost: Zavala -
Zavala: She’ll find the Speaker. We need to move on that command ship. Now head to the North Tower. I’m sending Amanda Holliday to pick you up.
- Board the command ship
- Fight to the north side of the Tower and rendezvous with Amanda Holliday
Zavala: Holliday is inbound. We need that ship off the field!
Amanda Holliday: Someone told me you need a ride.

Trivia
- In the Hangar if you turn right before exiting the Hangar towards the Plaza, going instead to where the dead Redjacks are lying you will find a sealed door with music playing in the background behind it, on a now broken Jukebox located it what once was a lounge accessible past the now sealed door. The music is Hope for the Future, a song written by Beatles legend Paul McCartney in collaboration with Marty O'Donnell and Micheal Salvatori and released in 2014 as part of the soundtrack for the Destiny base game.
- In this same area where the Redjacks were seen fighting as the player entered the Hangar, those Redjacks which were animate during that battle scene continue to appear as alive and allied with the player on both the player's radar and the player's cross hairs, where they are blue and green respectively. These Redjacks also continue to have their sensor's actively scanning despite the fact they are supposed to be dead. The Redjacks which in the first scene were not animate are not subject to this glitch, as it appears the Redjacks fighting in that scene were never actually registered as killed in the game engine. This is likely a glitch.
- In the foyer to the now destroyed Hall of Guardians, where Cayde and Shaxx are seen, the Urn of Sacrifice can be seen knocked over under the rubble where Eris Morn used to be located.
- On the wall in this foyer where Cayde shoots the three legionaries, opposite the player's entry, a Phalanx shield can be seen in old and thoroughly indestructible style of the Destiny 1 Cabal. This is the only such sighting, as all other phalanx's and their shields in Destiny 2 belong to the Red Legion
- Documents, such as directional signage and post it notes left on the computer screens in certain areas, are written in multiple languages besides English. Chinese, Spanish, French, German and Dutch languages can all be found in this mission's environment, supporting the narrative of a cosmopolitan City.
