What this book is about

This Destiny 1 Grimoire book covers Mars, once home to glittering Golden Age cities now buried under dunes. You get short entries on the planet, on Meridian Bay and the ruins of Freehold, and on Fleetbase Korus, the Cabal orbital station on Phobos that Holborn's Host found alongside Lord Shaxx and a Redjack fireteam.

The Ghost Fragments go further back. One imagines Mars being reshaped by a voice guiding volcanoes, ice and geysers. Another is a recruiting pitch from Clovis Bray, promising inventors total freedom in Freehold and comparing their creations to children with grandchildren of their own.

The last two fragments are personal. In an unpublished memoir, Clovis Bray II remembers his father explaining why he hated maps, during the days of the AI Initiative. A final entry follows a researcher who has just arrived on Mars, proud of nanites meant to speed up colony building, and a quiet conversation about lab space.

Mars

In the years since the Collapse, much of Mars has returned to the desolation that came before the Traveler. But buried beneath its surface are traces of the glimmering mega-cities that once sprawled across the planet, swallowed by dunes and Darkness.
