Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Ch 2: The Last City

--------

In the Tower, HQ of the Vanguard and The Speaker of the Traveler.

---------

"So the new guardian found an Archon den, blasted the Archon a new one, stole their ship, and is now resting in the med bay below our feet. That is AWESOME, please tell me his ghost recorded the action." A blue exo just recieved the report of a new guardian that just arrived to the city by their ghost.

The scans showed the new guardian suffered from paracasal exhaustion. The exo had rushed to meet the other vanguard and the speaker because usually only veterans and experienced guardians have even been diagnosed with this symptom. "Cayde, calm yourself. The new guardian just escaped a very rough first awakening." A bald black woman in a light maroon robe with various ornaments and designs that flourished and pulsed with light. She stepped foward to calm her fellow vanguard and fire team member. "We must make sure that the information we have obtained from his ghost can be used to help the guardian and protect the city. We can't rush our actions." A deep voice soon followed, "Ikora, do we have a location on this den? We need to strike it before they decide to move, we may not have another chance at finding the Prime Servitor and it's Archons. We have lost too many already to this house of devils."

The tall man who just spoke has no hair and has blue skin with visible veins of flowing light across his skin. He wears heavy armor that has the symbol of a Phoenix on its chest plate and the armor is painted red and his plates are shiny silver. "We must not forget about the guardian and ghost who brought us this information, whether intentional or not. His coming must be a sign from the traveler, especially because of the signs and signals we have recieved from the moon." A skinnier and older man who was wear all white robes and a mask spoke up. He is the speaker. He speaks for the traveler and acts as a connection between the vanguard, the last city, the guardians, and the traveler.

"Well, let's stop sitting around with our hand with our pockets. Let me take this new light, one of my hunters, and the three of us can infiltrate this den lickety split." Cayde the hunter vanguard isn't one for patience as he prefers to work in the moment and if it wasn't for his fireteam he would have already charged into this den a few hrs ago.

"Very well Cayde, but we will need comms to be on the entire time. If there is a single problem we force the three of you to retreat and we will personally lead a raid team to storm the den." Ikora gave a green light to caydes mission. She then opened up her tablet to search her warlocks who would be available for this mission.

"Eris has arrived. She seems to be available for your plan. She was an experienced solar hunter and could be a valued team member for your strike on the den. But first let's get our new light up to speed and geared up. He better get ready fast, he won't have a lot of time to adjust." Caydes eyes light up and salutes Ikora, "Yes ma'am." He jokingly chuckles and makes his way to the med bay.

Medbay at the Tower

-----------

The newly risen guardian was in the med bay, resting, the ghost was next to him. "Uugh, why does it hurt?" The ghost zips to the guardian. "You're awake! You did awesome, I have never seen such a devastating ark blast." All of a sudden the door opens, "OH? Arc blast I want to know all about that." Cayde has arrived in the guardians room. "Wow, Cayde-6. It's an honor I was hoping to one day have my guardian meet you and one day work with you." The ghost was ecstatic, while the guardian was confused on who this blue robot was. "Well good news is that now have the chance to work directly with me. Bad news we are going straight back to where you left. I'm making a team to take out that den and finish off that Archon."

The ghost and guardian both look at each other and without saying a word they know that action will forever be present in their lives. The guardian looks foward and says, "When do I learn how to use my powers." "I knew I would like you. You get to learn from one of my older hunters, Eris. She was a solar blade user. Well rest up, because tomorrow we will be taking out that den, oh also catch." He throws a rectangle at the guardian. "This is your 'Guardian box', patent pending, this will be your connection for the data between you and your ghost." I open it and see my face and my ghost. I see a new notification, a friend request. "I have a friend request?" "Yes, that is from me, be proud I don't accept every person who requests to be my friend." I click on it and it shows Cayde profile, "Cayde-6, Ace of Spade. Hunter Vanguard, and enjoyer of Ramen. Wow, thanks." The ghost is still floating next to the guardian and looks between cayde and his guardian, "Are you sure we will be useful for this strike?" "Of course, you nearly got him the first time around, now that you have "reinforcements" we will definitely take them out. Now get some good rest. Adios." Cayde then leaves with a skip in his step and goes to find Eris to inform her of her new student.

"Well guardian, welcome to the last city. Your adventure begins now. Let's make it a great one." The guardian nods his head in agreement and lays his head back down. He looks outside the window at the last city and the setting sun. He is ready for the future and the new chance for life he has been given.
