What to do
Description
There is no end to the Legion's depravity. Every battle won, every world conquered, yields more souls to fuel their war machine. They have not yet defiled all of the fallen warriors in the hold, but I fear it is only a matter of time. Please, take this talisman with you into the hold and use it to sanctify any corpses you encounter. They deserve a better fate.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Scars of the Past
The Army of the Light's warframes have won countless battles on Argus. Despite their power, not all who descend into the fray return. My modifications to this frame should give us the edge we need, but several critical components are still missing.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Chaos Theory
Despite their strength and their numbers, even the Burning Legion requires order to fight. Disrupt that order... and they fall like the rabble they are. The plan is simple. Let chaos reign in their ranks, and the day will be ours.
