The Destiny universe is filled with fantastic, well-written stories that are often hidden in lore tabs or the Grimoire. Some of Destiny's most well-known weapons, including several weapons in Destiny 2, feature great stories that many fans miss out on. One of the Destiny community's biggest lore experts, My Name is Byf, teamed up with several popular YouTubers and streamers to tell the story of Thorn and The Last Word, two of Destiny's most iconic exotic weapons.

With Thorn making a triumphant return in Season of the Drifter, many Destiny fans are beyond excited to get their hands on this spectacular hand cannon. However, there are many players, both new and old, who do not know the story behind Thorn. That is where My Name is Byf comes in. Byf compiled the rich history of Dredgen Yor and Shin Malphur into one completely voiced-over video with a runtime of nearly an hour and a half. This project was in the works for a long time, and now that Bungie has revealed the missing details of the tale, Byf was finally able to finish this great video.

One thing Destiny's lore team does right is great writing, and this video gives voice to the great tales written by Bungie. The story of Shin Malphur and Dregden Yor is one of the most iconic pieces of Destiny lore, and the team behind this video brings it to life in such a way that breathes even more life into the great narrative. While Byf is known in the Destiny community for creating in-depth lore videos for Destiny and Destiny 2, this one goes above and beyond. Byf has made similar videos in the past for different parts of the lore, including the Books of Sorrow and the rise of Oryx.

The story of The Last Word and Thorn are covered in depth in the Destiny Grimoire Anthology book that Bungie published late last year. This book likely helped paint a better picture for the story of Yor and Malphur. Byf did state that he has plans in the future to produce more videos of this caliber about the Books of Sorrow and the Black Armory Papers, so those that enjoyed this video have something else to look forward to in the future.

Destiny 2: Black Armory is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
