The Beginning.

|Must read Arc 1: Immortal, in order to understand what's happening in Arc 2!| "I won't know mercy." Phoenix's cold demeanor plagues Zavala. When she arrived from the prison she was... different. He couldn't tell if the rage and trauma had finally taken her, or if she was simply coping with the pain to follow. Either way, the stabbing thought of Phoenix being lost, unnerved the commander. He spent years watching over her and failing. When she finally began working alongside the vanguard, Zavala was relieved. Now, he's lost a member of his fireteam, and his relief is quickly vanishing. The Last City is mourning the loss of Cayde, and his lover Phoenix, who is immersed in grief and anger, has distracted herself with destruction. She plans to right the wrongs of the vile men who have ruined her. Top of the list is Uldren Sov. Will revenge truly make it better? Will Phoenix become so cold and hardened by her despair that she's lost to the life she once had with Cayde? Or will she fall further into the shadows to sacrifice everything to bring him back? Would Cayde even forgive her for everything she's done?
