Walkthrough[edit]
The door will open, once it does, start running up the stairs. At the top you have another group of Taken Acolytes and knights. Just charge to the right of them, toward the exit. Jump off the small ledge and head across the short hallway toward the next door. Get into the next room.
Look to the door leading out of this room. It is locked, there are a number of Taken Thralls and a Taken Wizard guards the door. Time to find the two Tomb Husks that will open the way for you.
Turn around and head to the left, from the door, and drop off the ledge. Look for a break in the wall and follow the path down.
This leads to a small room with a Taken Knight and the first Tomb Husk. Defeat the Knight and then grab the Tomb Husk. Run back up the slope and head over to the door. You will see where to put the Tomb Husk. Place it and then it is off to find the second one.
You need to head to the opposite balcony to claim the second Tomb Husk.
The husk is found just next to the door you came through. There are some Taken guarding it so be careful. Just grab it and make the sprint back to the door. Release the Husk and head through the door when it opens. Go up the stairs in front of you to the left. Turn to the right at the top of the stairs and sprint down the hallway. This leads you to the Temple of Crota. As you run into this room, note the Tomb Husk that you just passed on the way in.
Head into the next room. The door out is locked with 3 Hive Runes. This time you will be dealing with Taken Fallen. Guarding the door is a Taken Captain. Clear out the Taken Fallen around the door. You need to collect the 3 Tomb Husks to move forward.
In the room you will have at least 2 more Taken Captains. This is a great time to use a solar shotgun to quickly eliminate them as a threat. With them cleared out, find and eliminate the Taken Vandals. They are a constant sniper threat and the addition of their shields make them dangerous foes.
One of the husks sits behind a wall. This husk is just to the right of the door (if you are facing it). If you head to the nearby large door, you can scan it. You will learn that the Fallen had recently come through. It is a short run back to the door. Break the seal and then it is time to search for the next husk. Be sure to clear out more of the Taken Fallen to ease things up.
Head to the Hive Seeder in the middle of the room. On the side opposite the locked door you will find another Tomb Husk.
Make your way back to where you came into this room. You will find a Tomb Husk waiting just inside the hallway in. Run it back to the locked door and wait for it open by activating the final rune. Go through the the door, turn left and start running up the stairs. Just ignore the Taken appearing around up and keep running upwards.
You will soon reach the ramp leading up to the lunar surface. Do not stop just yet. Run up the ramp and get out to the entry way to the Temple of Crota.
When you make it out to the lunar surface, you are safe. You can slow down and catch your breath now. Head forward a bit more to trigger the final bits of dialogue between Eris and [{Destiny: Cayde-6|Cayde]].
