You're not just making and distributing cookies in this year's version of the Dawning, Destiny 2's holiday event. There are also two fairly length quests to complete, each of which earns you special Dawning weapon rewards. While completing the Rite of Dawning quest earns you guns for Dawnings past, if you finish the quest called The Pigeon Provides, you'll unlock the new Stasis version of the Zephyr sword, which is the only Stasis blade in the game.
To start The Pigeon Provides quest, you'll need to vist Eva Levante in the Tower to kick off the festivities. You'll also need to have completed The Lost Splicer on Europa--the first mission that kicks off the story of the Season of the Splicer. With that done, you'll have the story setup in place for Saint-14 and his relationship with the Eliksni of the House of Light.
Talk to Saint-14 to advance the quest to its next step, in which he decides to try to find a way to bring the Dawning to the Eliksni refugees living in the Last City. Baking is involved, as usual, but instead of making the cookies you bring to the other NPCs throughout Destiny 2, you'll need to make some Eliksni-specific goodies. To figure out what to do, you'll need to find yourself a recipe for Eliksni baked goods. Head to Europa to track it down.
Head to the east of the spawn location in Eventide Ruins. Go to the edge of the ice cliff and look down for the spot where you can drop down to find the opening of a cave.The data pad you need is right at the mouth of the cave. Grab it and you'll find out what ingredients you need to make your Eliksni treats: Glacial Starwort, Harpy Eggs, and Pure Ether Extract.
Perdition is the best Lost Sector to get the ingredients you need on Europa.The quickest way to knock out the first two ingredients is to head to the Perdition Lost Sector in Cadmus Ridge. This Lost Sector is full of Harpies, which will get you the eggs quickly. You'll need to complete the Lost Sector three total times to get the Pure Ether Extract you need, but that's not too tough.
Glacial Starwort are all over the place, and the easiest way to find them is to use Ghost mods for finding chests and planetary resources. You should be able to snag five Starworts pretty quickly, since the ones coming out of chests also count.
Make sure you've got 15 Dawning Spirit in your inventory before heading to the Spider. You can earn the currency from basically any activity in the game.You also need Etheric Spirals, which are resources you can find on the Tangled Shore. Again, use your Ghost mods to find chests and resources to quickly grab the five resources you need. You should be able to find them all in Thieves' Landing.
Look for Eliksni with babies strapped to their chests--the little ones seem to appreciate these treats quite a bit.When you arrive, run around the area and find some Eliksni to talk to. You need to interact with 10 of them, and they're mostly found in the main half-destroyed building in front of you when you spawn in. Once you've handed out 10 of Saint's dubious cookies, you'll be all set.
You get a Masterworked Zephyr for bringing so much holiday cheer to the Tower.If you've already completed the Rite of Dawning quest, completing The Pigeon Provides will also unlock the Vapoorwill Spin Exotic jumpship, which you can grab from Eva as well. And you'll get access to a new Gift In Exchange item from Eva, which allows you to trade your Gift In Return packages for packages that guarantee new Zephyr sword drops. That'll make it easy to grab new rolls on the sword to get exactly the weapon you want.
