Overview

The Journey is the Shadowkeep Exotic quest for Xenophage, given through Eris Morn on the Moon. It begins in the Enduring Abyss and ends in the Pit of Heresy dungeon, so a fireteam is recommended. Expect a long session. The quest is from Shadowkeep (2019); step wording may have changed since.

Walkthrough

  1. "Emerged from the dark": near the Sorrow's Harbor area, activate the four statues in the Enduring Abyss in this order: front right, back left, back right, front left. A chest spawns with the quest. Then take the orb of light from Anchor of Light and light six lanterns in sequence (orb room, radio tower slope, smallest yellow building, tower top, northern ramp, elevated circular roof), returning the orb to the Hive spire.
  2. Find four Path Fragments (Archer's Line, Sorrow's Harbor, Hellmouth, Anchor of Light) by solving the rune puzzles in the Moon Lost Sectors K1 Revelation, K1 Logistics, K1 Communion and K1 Crew Quarters, shooting glyphs in numbered order.
  3. "Path uncovered": enter the Pit of Heresy and finish the first encounter, then find the hidden door and interact with the stone marked "Reveal Path's End".
  4. "Path's end located": during the Pariah Ogre encounter, drop to a hidden ledge, pick up a charge and light two plates near a door.
  5. Defeat Volmâr, the Tempted. Match the elemental symbols and deal the matching damage type (Solar, Arc, Void, Kinetic), so bring all four.
  6. Return to Eris Morn with the Hive bug.
