The next expansion for Destiny 2, Lightfall, is only two weeks away, and Bungie just concluded its latest seasonal story with an incredible one-two punch. It tees things up for Lightfall in a truly exciting way. Spoilers for Destiny 2: Season of the Seraph's finale mission ahead.

Season of the Seraph has focused on the Warmind Rasputin, a powerful figure in Destiny's lore who has taken a more prominent role in the story than ever before. To end the season, Bungie launched a new mission that wraps up not just Season of the Seraph, but Rasputin's role in the story that stretches back to the first Destiny.

In atypical fashion, this mission is set to Legendary difficulty, the optional setting you could use when playing through The Witch Queen campaign. Your Power level is capped at 1350 (well below where anyone who has reached this point in the seasonal story would be) and matchmaking is disabled. Combined with the urgency around the story--Eramis is prepared to use the Warsats to destroy the Traveler as revenge for it having abandoned the Eliksni, and Rasputin deems his own destruction to be the only course of action to stop her--this provides a real weight to the proceedings. Even as a mission meant to wrap up the ongoing season, things feel much more important.
