"Welcome home, Guardian. I heard your journey to the Last City was an eventful one," Ikora says as she gazes at the Traveler. "It may not feel like it now, but the tribulations you faced were a blessing." She turns to address you; her stare is piercing.

"A Guardian's path is one of hardship and peril. The Traveler's gifts pave the way, but the road is still a hard one to walk."

"But you need not walk it alone. The Vanguard is here for you, as are your fellow Guardians in the Last City."

She hands you a small lacquered box.

"Accept help where you can find it, Guardian. Our Light shines brighter when we're together."
