The Dark Age is a Grimoire card from the original Destiny (Destiny 1), found under Places → The City. Grimoire cards held most of the game's lore and were read on Bungie.net and in the companion app, not in the game itself.
Card text
The Golden Age burned bright - and the night that overtook us after the Collapse was swift and total.
The tally of suffering may be beyond comprehension. But the City lifted itself from the ash, gathering survivors. Guardians rose to challenge alien hordes. The Dark Age swallowed so much of our history...but hope never died.
