Destiny 2 Exegesis explained: How to untangle light and dark founts
Exegesis is a mission in Destiny 2’s The Final Shape expansion which is set to finish over a decade’s worth of storytelling.
Aside from new weapons, armour, locations and the return of Cayde-6, The Final Shape has fresh tasks for players to overcome in the first-person shooter.
One of those that has stumped players since the expansion was released on 4th June 2024 is how to untangle light and dark founts. What does that even mean?
Well, we’ve done some digging and have included a very simple guide on how to untangle light and dark founts in Destiny 2’s Exegesis mission.

The task takes place in a large underground cavern and initially, you will be faced with unlocking a gate which has a light and dark pool on either side of it.
To do this, you must acquire light and dark motes. First, begin by killing a knight that inhabits the cavern – using anything other than a shield – so your firearm or explosives will suffice. Once you have defeated the knight, it will drop dark motes, which you can collect and take to the dark pool by the gate.
After a short period of time, a shield will spawn in the vicinity, which you can use to kill another knight. This will give you a light orb which, again, you simply take to the light pool.
Now the gate will be unlocked and you can move onto the next stage, which operates very similarly to the above. However, instead of dealing with two pools, this time you must manage four.
