Ikora greets you on the holoprojector while Failsafe processes the data you retrieved from the aberrant Vex.

"Failsafe briefed me about your progress on Nessus," she says. "She seems pleased that things are going so well."

The smile falls from her face. "I'm concerned they're about to get worse."

She tells you her contacts have been studying the Valence, the strange aurora you've noticed spreading from the Traveler. The phenomenon began when the Witness was killed, and the mysterious object that fell to Nessus originated from that astral cloud.

She thinks the Nessus Vex have retrieved the object—and you must learn all you can, as quickly as possible.

"Give Failsafe all the support she needs. She may be a bit unpredictable herself, but she's our best source of intel on the Vex."

"Stay alert," she says, and cuts the feed.
