Storyline

As an ancient enemy stirs and mysterious Pyramid ships of the Darkness advance through the solar system, this expansion carries the player's Guardian to Europa, the frozen moon of Jupiter. There, amid howling blizzards and the buried ruins of a forgotten research empire, a Fallen warlord named Eramis has united her scattered people under a single banner. Branding herself the Kell of Darkness, Eramis has learned to wield Stasis, a chilling new power drawn from the Darkness itself, and gifted it to her lieutenants, believing it will let her save her kind and take revenge upon the Traveler that once abandoned them. Outmatched by this frozen might, the Guardian is drawn toward the Darkness's own whispered offer of power, guided by the long-absent Exo Stranger and other uneasy allies. To stand against Eramis and safeguard humanity, the Guardian must venture deep into Europa's secrets and confront the tempting, dangerous gift of Stasis.
