Overview
Legacy: The Witch Queen is the long post-campaign story quest of The Witch Queen. Ikora Rey sends the Guardian through the memories of Savathûn's Throne World to recover the memory tied to Sagira's shell and to deal with the Witness. The quest runs for roughly 19 steps (several hours) and is given by Fynch/Ikora Rey on Mars and in the Tower. The original version of the quest is a Season 16 legendary quest; this page tracks the "Legacy" listing of it.
