"Hello this is Cayde-6 of the vanguard. I realize this is an abuse of the tower P.A, but whoever took my sparrow I will find you and you will wear a sign that says stole....nevermind nevermind. It's right here. Sorry" - Cayde-6

*calm and quiet. All is serene.* LOOK *a shockwave sweeps over the land, knocking trees high into the air* A CELL *the trees are then shattered into a million tiny splinters of wood and blown back with the speed of a jet plane* FROM THE PRISON OF ELDERS *miles away, a village is flattened* THE ARCHON PRIEST IS STILL INSIDE *mothers weep as they pull their children from the rubble, blood dripping out of their ears.* (Only y1 players will understand. ;-;) Y2 VERSION INBOUND?!? MY EARDRUMS ARE ABOUT TO DIE!!!

"All that terrain is explorable"

If you listen in the tower, it says on the intercom "Bungie.net; satisfying your mom since 1991" I'm dead serious

"Do you believe... in destiny?" -Pyrrha Nikos

Destiny: Forge of Gods The Fever of revelation. ---“Alright Cayde, give it to me straight.” Cayde-6: "Suicide would be putting it kindly. This mission, it’s more along the lines of voluntary obliteration. We only burden you with this because there’s no one else. Time’s Conflux, the Prince of darkness, Kell of Kells, the Taken King. Again and again its been you, who delivers us from evil. The innocent out there, they look to you as their salvation. At this point, we all do. And now, after everything you’ve done, we have to ask your legend to venture an uncharted course. To give once more, everything that's left. This mission, it’s martyrdom. The Speaker: "Years ago the Vanguard received reports of increased seismic activity at the base of Olympus Mons. The readings were disregarded as atypical, and filed away under anomaly. It was too late when they realized, the scale of that activity was inconceivable, and the true nature of the planetary shifts, was sinister." Ghost: "At the core of the Cabal War Machine there is a heat unlike anything in existence. A legend smoldering in darkness, an emperor with a heart consumed by hatred. You see, the cabal are born with an unnatural heat. They speak in demolition, and revel in the fury of destruction. They worship the prophecy of a warlord wielding hellfire, commanding the madness of an entire species, all burning alive with a shared rage." The Speaker: "A force of such magnitude demands immediate attention. And so a summit was held, where the mission became clear. A journey would have to be made. It would be a hellish pilgrimage, the travelers, engulfed in flame the whole way. Their fates were sealed. No retreat, and no surrender, just a final destination at the heart of that furious furnace. Their journey was codenamed, Forge of Gods." Cayde-6: “So what do you say Guardian? You know how to fight fire, don’t ya?” Embrace the fury of destruction in, Forge of Gods. Journey to the center of Mars, via the Cabal’s immense subterranean empire. Explore the weaponized landscape and test the strength of enraged Cabal on their own territory. Cannibalize an army of hellfire on your warpath to extinguish the legend of the Cabal Emperor. Unearth the forbidden relics of fire-team Ein-10 and their legacy of overpowered weaponry.
