Shin Malphur and Dredgen Yor have a one sided showdown decades after Yor killed Jaren Ward. An old qoute resurfaces with renewed power.

When the town of Palamon is reduced to ash, Shin Malphur and Guardian Jaren Ward go after the culprit which leads to an encounter with the deadly Dredgen Yor.

The story of The Last Word is tied as tightly to the corrupted Guardian Dredgen Yor as it is Jaren Ward, but Yor was not always the evil that the world now knows him as.

Some years after his rebirth, Shin Malphur lives as a boy in the town of Palamon under the rule of the ruthless Magistrate Loken... until Jaren Ward walks into town.

The Last Word is one of Destiny's most iconic guns, so, of course, its history is one of Destiny's longest and most iconic backstories.
