As soon as he started running forward again to get to the Viagar Mines, a Fallen Vandal appeared out of nowhere. The Guardian said, "That seems to be from a House branch of the Fallen, if I'm not mistaken?"
Vertigo said, "House of Atlas to be exact. They try to keep the Vex and Hive in check. Yet, they are unable to do so."
The Fallen Vandal, Yytryn, Kell's Guard asked, "Were the Hive performing some type of ritual, Guardian?"
The Guardian heard that and answered, "Yes. They were trying to bring one of the Wurm Gods here."
Yytryn said, "Hamnes, huh? Thanks to you, we now know that we must stop the Hive no matter what. Along with the Vex."
The Guardian said, "Well, I need to get to the Viagar Mines. Do you know where they are?"
Yytryn answered, "Yes I do. But I rather not help you. You plan on saving the Traveler, yet are wanted dead by Arduri and Gilko. You might already know this, but they are waiting for you."
The Guardian said, "We know."
Vertigo said, "He's got the Hive doing their bidding. And those Hive trying to bring Hamnes here were with Arduri."
The Guardian heard that and then said, "It seems that you have the same enemy as us. How about we work together to take out two criminals that were given the Light?"
Yytryn said, "Hm, if they really are behind this attack, then I have no choice but to stop them. We guard this world for the Guardians. The House of Atlas work with the Guardians. We just don't ever go visit them due to their lack of power. Same as the Awoken."
The Guardian said, "Alright. We need to get to the entrance of the Viagar Mines. And we'll help you kill two criminals that tried defiling Ceres."
Yytryn said, "We're going to make it look like the Hive killed them, correct?"
The Guardian answered, "Of course. You got the weapons from our previous battle against the Hive, Vertigo."
Vertigo answered, "Yessir."
The Guardian said, "Well, we'll be needing them for awhile."
Vertigo summoned two Splinters appeared and then Yytryn said, "That Ghost of yours has a lot of Light within her if she's capable of holding more than 4 weapons."
The Guardian asked, "What makes you say that?"
Yytryn answered, "The less Light you have in this realm, the less weapons that you can carry within a Ghost. That's what the previous Hunter Vanguard told us before he passed away. He was a good man. And his death took a lot of impact on the people within the city."
The Guardian said, "I see."
While they were running toward Viagar Mines, a group of Vex appeared shooting at them. The Guardian said, "Until we get to Arduri and Gilko, we'll use our original weapons."
Yytryn said, "Thank god. These things are hard to understand."
The Guardian said, "I knew the feeling too. I used to use the enemies weapons when I ran out of ammo. And succeeded in defeating the enemy using their weapons. It was hard to learn how to use alien technology. Trust me, if you pick up your enemies weapons, then you'll understand how to use them."
Yytryn said, "I rather stick with my Shock Rifle, Guardian. So, let's keep it that way."
The Guardian said, "Good enough. Just a suggestion for when you run out of ammo."
Yytryn said, "I understand."
The Goblins shot at them, but Yytryn shot their cores and they exploded instantly. The Guardian shot their cores as well as he dodged their attacks. Vex continued to appear and then the Guardian said, "It seems that the Vex really don't want us getting to the mines."
Yytryn said, "That seems to be the case."
The Guardian said, "It's like Arduri and Gilko aren't even Dragonkin."
Vertigo said, "Guardian, it seems that I just broke through the barrier that was put into their profiles. Arduri and Gilko passed away due to the Fallen of the House of Lions killing them in the prison for information."
Yytryn said, "That seems like them. Asterisk-29 was an info broker to all of the Houses that wanted the Guardians dead. Bekys-30 was just a warden doing Asterisk's bidding."
The Guardian said, "Then we saved the Vex that are cloaked as them."
Yytryn said, "It seems that we all get tricked some times."
The Guardian kept shooting at the Vex as they appeared. Yytryn growled and then looked back and saw two Hydras appear and said, "Hydras are behind them. They look like Axis Minds."
The Guardian said, "Analyze them."
Vertigo said, "Sigrin, Grand Mind and Zioken, Ceres Mind. Formerly known as Arduri and Gilko."
Yytryn said, "I see. That'll be troublesome."
As the Vex continued to appear, Yytryn started speaking in Eliksni and then Vertigo said, "It seems that he's calling for backup."
The Guardian looked at him and then 30 minutes later, they were running low on ammo and then a huge group of Skiffs appeared dropping Fallen into the area. The Kell of the House of Atlas, Fovos appeared saying, "Annihilate the threat at hand men. Smart move, Yytryn. You two are low on ammo. Let us handle the rest of the Vex. Get to the Viagar Mines."
Sigrin and Zioken looked at one another and then teleported out of there. The Guardian said, "Thank you."
Fovos said, "No problem. Anything for the Guardians. Those two were known as Sigrin, Grand Mind and Zioken, Ceres Mind. They are members of the Anti-Guardian Faction in which they lead together. They are unable to leave Ceres, so they won't be able to cause you any harm. Unless they turn into their other form again. Then they could travel throughout the realm just to hunt who they want dead."
The Guardian heard that and then explosions occurred all over the battlefield. Fovos said, "Hold that line of defense now, Trakses."
A Fallen Dreg, Trakses, House of Atlas said, "Yessir."
The Guardian said, "You know, I was expecting your guard to be Captains, not Vandals."
Fovos said, "I get that a lot from visiting Guardians. They barely leave the city now due to the Hive draining their Light. You are the first Guardian in about a couple months."
The Guardian said, "I see."
Fovos said, "Go now. We got this."
Yytryn said, "You actually want me to go with him."
Fovos answered, "Yes. Go save the Traveler together."
The Guardian said, "To be honest with you, I work better solo. But I guess that it would be difficult with low ammo."
Fovos smiled and then said, "Go."
They took off and then Fovos said, "Well then Guardian from a different realm, show us the great deeds that are to come."
