As I sat in the bar drinking my golden age old drink a rum and coke. Cuban walks in I relaxed on my bench lean on the table and wave for him to come over. Cuban sits down as he does I Notice something dark as if bronze hanging from his neck upon closer inspection it looks like a finger. I ask him about it. He Replies it's A vex hob goblins trigger finger I shot it off when it took aim at an old friend of mine. As he finishes the Exo waiter comes over and ask if we'd like more drinks I order another Cuban orders something Called an Omolon special we continue talking when the waiter comes back she hand me my drink and Cuban a spray can with the marking of Omolon weapons manufacturing on it. Cuban pops the top and sprays some of it into an open port on the side of his neck. As I watch I see a slight smile on his Exo face he looks at me its liquid coolant it runs colder then most so its easier to think for me. He replied there's no better feeling then running cold. I smiled back taking a sip of my drink I ask how long he's been a Guardian he replies I think 1 year today. It must be nice having all of that experience his smile dims I wouldn't call it experience. It's more of an adventure there are a lot of good times and there are bad times as well I've lost many friends including the one claimed by that Hobgoblin Cubans eyes seem to pulse for a second he looked at me I shot that finger off but I didn't shoot it off in time we were Outside the Vault of glass on Venus lots of vex around. The spire had just formed Hobgoblins as well as Praetorians came pouring out of the Vault it was a hard fight killing them off we were winning originally until we made our way inside to the Templars well. We crossed to the main platform the Oracles Summoned by the Templars shined into our plain of existence while we focused on taking them out as they appeared that's where it happened Hobgoblins jumped through time on the outer platforms I shot two dead but the third had a bead on him. Andal Brask was his name he used to be our mentor for the hunters he taught me and Cayde 6 so much and he took us into the Vault of glass on a dare from Cayde 6. He was such a proud hunter you would of liked him he was a human like you. His Confidence was amazing he was capable of doing anything and he found humor in all things. The loss of his life permanently is one of the greatest losses I've experienced while being Guardian. Cuban sprays some more of the liquid coolant into his neck. He sighs and looks up at me do you remember anything of your past life before you originally died. I tried thinking back but couldn't remember. I told him about how I knew I was a soldier because of my uniform he asked if it had any symbols on it that had stood out I thought about it there was an eagle that did stand out I Said as well as a cross. Well he said you still fight well. He looks long and hard at me for a moment. Before he stands up he says come with me I have something to show you. As we walk back up to the hangar he walks towards a small black and green ship his ghost opens the bay door. We onboard he turns and says this is my ship now in the next room I have a gift for you since I noticed you do well with a hand cannon even when firing fast. He pulled me into the next room being wide rectangular cockpit behind his seat was a bronze box as he opened it I saw him pull out the most extravagant Hand cannon. I have ever seen laced with golden inlays all the way down the barrel even around the cylinder he held out the hand cannon saying it the Last word it has a long history. And now that I have Thorn partially thanks to you I'd like you to have it. It's a double action so it can fire either way. I could barely speak as I looked up at him. He held out his hand again and I shook it he pulled me close and patted my back try not to lose this one in the Crucible its one of a kind. I laughed I'll never lose this ever. He walked me back out of his ship and into the hangar he said you remind me a lot of Andal Brask. I'll always have your back and this time I won't be too slow on the draw you can trust. I thanked him and we bumped fists I was still holding The last word In my hand I put it in my holster across my back. We talked for awhile before splitting up I ended up back in My Quarters Manhatton Across from me reading as I sat down. He looked up And asked what do you know of the Ahamkara? I said I've never heard of them. He looked at me they were once a great and Powerful Race a Dragon like Creature made in the light of the traveler they had great wisdom and granted some great power with deals struck. Unfortunately the Ahamkara are no more. Stunned to hear this I asked what happened he replied the Hunt happened they killed all that could be found of the Ahamkara. I replied who did? The Vanguard killed them all. Shocked I couldn't believe this he said don't worry they weren't much for allies they're loyalties didn't lie with us completely. That and I don't believe they are all dead either merely hiding. Manhatton rose and came over to me handing me a piece of bond small but as big as my palm he then stated that's a Ahamkara's tooth its no more than 50 years old. Supposedly they killed them off over 200 years ago. I held it in my hand trying to imagine the creature it belonged to but couldn't Manhatton said I want you to keep they say the bones of the Ahamkara bring you luck and Great wisdom. I put it in my pocket and laid down looking at the ceiling. Manhatton said I'll be back in a couple of hours I'm have to go to the archive. As I fell asleep I dreamed of Teeth Serrated and bloody. To be continued.
