What this book is about

This Destiny 1 Grimoire book covers Venus, a world the jungle has taken back. You read about ruined academies, abandoned dig sites, smoldering volcanoes and old Vex spires that have started to glow with power again. A Ghost Fragment imagines the planet's past and a possible "second birth."

Most of the book centers on the Ishtar Sink, where Guardians search the ruins of the Ishtar Collective, a large Golden Age scientific project. The Fallen House of Winter is pillaging the same ruins, backed by Skiff overflights and a possible staging area in the Cinders. You are told the situation is becoming a race against time, and that the ruins may warn of other threats rising on Venus.

The final entry turns to a dented copper box filled with a strange powder. The greatest minds study it closely, and what they find raises questions about who sent it and why.

Venus

Venus has been reclaimed by the jungle. Dragonflies flit through ruined academies and abandoned dig sites. Volcanoes smolder. Here and there a line of light marks where ancient Vex spires, thought long-dead, have once more been energized.
