We're here, finally. The Deep Stone Crypt.
Yeah...
Something wrong?
Yeah...
You know you can tell me anything.
I know Exodius.
Then what is it?
This is as far as you go.
What do you mean by that?
I mean, you're not going past this point with me.
What? Why?
It's too dangerous.
That's more of a reason for me to be there for you! Come on, you can't do this, I won't let you.
Exodius... Please...
No! I'm coming with you.
I didn't want this... You've left me no choice.
Wha- HEY! Don't- (Guardian down!)
Like you said, I'd kill you instantly... I'm sorry.
You cheat. That was Felwinter's Lie. I know a shotgun when I hear- What are you doing?
Making sure you don't die again.
You can't do this. LET ME OUT!
No... I'm sorry Exodius. These cells were meant for guardians like us, so using your Light won't help.
Was this what Cayde was locked into? Is that how he remembered Clovis as a guardian?
Yes...
Please let me out.
No.
I can't- I don't- I need you.
You'll live. Everyone does.
LISTEN TO ME! I LISTEN TO YOU ALL THE TIME! IT'S YOUR TURN!
You picked the worst time possible for this... Don't make me yell.
No! I don't want to lose you! The last time you pulled something like this off you almost died! If I hadn't saved your ass, you'd be dead! I changed your fate! ME!
This is different Exodius.
How? How can it possibly-
JUST SHUT UP ALREADY! LET ME DO THIS! LET ME PROTECT YOU LIKE I USUALLY DO YOU IDIOT! Please... let me make sure you're safe... Please...
Hey... It's ok...
I'm scared, but I know this is the best- Wait...
What is it?
They're here. Quiet!
Wait, what do those buttons do? What are you doing now?
Ensuring they don't see or hear you. I don't want to say this, but it is inevitable.
Say what? Tell me.
Goodbye Exodius.
W-wait! NO! No... She's gone. What's that noise? Hive. That's what they are... Savathún! That witch! I gotta find a way ou-
Is...Is that blood?
Oh no.
