Riddle of the Great Conquest

What's up guys! Time for a riddle to test your MLG skillz. Good luck guardians! Who/what am I? "[i]Once a symbol of power in the past, I have been reduced to nearly nothing. So many disappeared without a trace, yet so much remains. You have seen me many times, as I had been important once before. What evil lurks within me? I believe you already know. There are many kinds of darkness in the depths, but these bonds were meant to be broken, yes?[/i]" Winner: Spyro Answer: [spoiler]Freehold[/spoiler] Explanation: [spoiler]"Once a symbol of power in the past, I have been reduced to nearly nothing." The city of Freehold was a great city of the Golden Age, according to the Grimoire on Meridian Bay. Now it is a ghost down that was ravaged by the Cabal. "So many disappeared, yet so much remains." There were many people that used to live in Freehold during the Golden Age, but during the Collapse, they all disappeared, but the buildings, and some of the technology, like the mechanism that was controlled by Rasputin, remained. "You have seen me many times, as I had been important once before." You travel to Freehold on Mars many times in the story, and your mission is to remove the Caba that have taken over the city. So Freehold was pretty important for a while. "What evil lurks within me? I believe you already know." The Vex and Cabal occupy parts of Freehold, but this is pretty obvious before you get to freehold because of the Cabal/Vex you see roaming Mars. "There are many kinds of darkness in the depths, but these bonds were meant to be broken, yes?" When you go underground in Freehold, there are many Darkness-related things there (dark rooms, darkness zones, Cabal, Vex). Also,there is a line said by Commander Zavala in the Cerberus Vae III strike where he tells you to break the cabal's grip on Freehold (break the bond).[/spoiler] Edit: I know you guys want me to tell you if you're close or on the right track, but that really depends on how you're approaching the riddle. [b][u]Post an explanation for your answer if you want me to tell you if you're close or not.[/u][/b] It just helps me to see how you guys are interpreting the riddle.
