"They never do, do they? Good to see you alive and well, Arxus. I'm sure the vex will be happy to stand in our way. Not so much when they fall, though."

The titan returned the gesture, patting Arxus on the shoulder with a bit more force, proportional to his great strength. Upon hearing Sara's response, the giant slowly shook his helmeted head, more with regret than disagreement.

"The mark's weight is one which must be borne with both body and mind. It is a test I failed, for while I can slay scores of foes with but my fists, I could not see through the lies the darkness forced upon my mind. My weakness nearly cost some of you your lives. You bare the mark now because I could not, but I did not choose you in vain.

Amongst those choices I had, you were my first, Sara. You may doubt yourself, but I believe you to be strong enough of arm and will to succeed where I failed. You are no weak link, you merely have yet to be tempered. The light of more guardians than history cares to count burns within that mark, and you shall yet prove worthier of such an honor than I."
