The lead-up to The Final Shape expansion is tying off some plot threads from all the way back in the Last Wish raid.
By Phil Hornshaw on
Destiny 2's next season is the Season of the Wish, and it'll concern one of the weirdest elements of the game's lore: the powerful wish-granting dragons called ahamkara.
Bungie officially announced the season's name on Twitter after players completed a new puzzle in the Imbaru Engine, one of the activities that are part of the current Season of the Witch. The new season kicks off on November 28.

Now Playing: Destiny 2: The Final Shape | Official Cinematic Reveal Trailer
Completing the final puzzle unlocks a cutscene that hints at where the story is going, and it's actually a return to a hanging plot thread Destiny 2 players have been wondering about for years. The cutscene hints at the 15th Wish, an element first introduced back in the Forsaken expansion in 2018.
If you're not familiar, here's the backstory on why the 15th Wish is such a big deal. Forsaken's raid, Last Wish, had players venturing into the Dreaming City to destroy Riven, the last known living ahamkara in Destiny 2's solar system. Ahamkara are incredibly powerful and dangerous creatures in the lore of Destiny 2. They're basically genies, capable of granting wishes to anyone who asks, but with a tendency to twist those wishes against the wisher, monkey's paw-style.
Congratulations to those who have solved the final puzzle of the Imbaru Engine.
Season of the Wish arrives on November 28. Until then, O Guardian Mine.
