thorn (destiny)

An exotic Hand Cannon from Destiny 2.

Formerly Rose, and one of the Hive's Weapons of Sorrow, Thorn was the weapon of choice by the corrupted Rezyl Azzir, now known as Dredgen Yor. Powered by Hive magic and forever hungering for Light, it was capable of permanently killing Guardians as if they were anyone else, and could devour the souls of those who fell to it to fuel its wielder.

After Yor was slain by Shin Malphur, the weapon would find itself in the hands of the player character, who would go on to purify it back into Rose, and eventually transform it into Lumina.

"To rend one's enemies is to see them not as equals, but objects—hollow of spirit and meaning."
