*COMMANDER ZAVALA: The success of Vanguard stems from training, from gear, and most of all, from experience. Your mission to Phobos was what started this war. I can think of no one better suited to lead this assault.
{Gameplay}
*ZAVALA: The tunnel system beneath the old city of Freehold is extensive. Much of it is uncharted. But thankfully, much of it is also collapsed. This should be a standard sweep-and-clear. Good luck.
The Guardian heads through Freehold Station and into Tharsis Junction, encountering Taken along the way.
*GHOST: This rail system was endless. It connected colonies, dig sites... I'm even detecting a line that runs all the way up to the Cradle at the North Pole.
The Guardian continues to the end of the tunnel and discovers a large hole in the far wall, which leads to the Black Garden.
*GHOST: Temporal energy. Strands of Darkness. Vex circuitry.
*ZAVALA: The Black Garden? We had no idea this entrance existed. Guardian, there are Vex among the Taken. They may know how to re-form the heart!
The Guardian continues exploring the Garden and finds an Echo of Oryx. It disappears immediately and summons a few Taken soldiers in its place.
*GHOST: An Echo of Oryx! That explains where the Taken are coming from.
The Guardian pursues the Echo, killing its summoned Taken along the way. The Guardian reaches a ledge overlooking the Garden. Numerous Taken portals sit scattered around the Garden.
*GHOST: When we destroyed the heart, we locked the Garden to the surface of Mars. All the Taken had to do was... walk through the front door.
The Guardian finds the Echo, which again retreats, summoning Bracus Sho'ogurn in its place. The Guardian kills him, and the remaining Taken retreat.
*ZAVALA: An Echo of Oryx loose in the Black Garden?! The thought chills my very soul. It may have escaped, but your assault was a categoric success. We'll have teams mop up the remaining Taken, and we can begin tracking that Echo.
