The “Anomalous Voices” quest in Destiny 2 is your reward for finishing the main story of Echoes, and it offers a different perspective on the episode’s villain, Maya Sundaresh. To complete this epilogue, you’ll need to hunt down some hidden temporal anomalies — one on Europa and eight in the “Encore” Exotic mission.
In this Destiny 2 guide, we’ll walk you through where to find all anomalies, including the Bray Exoscience anomaly and all eight anomalies in “Encore,” so you can complete the epilogue and earn yourself the “Before Aurora” emblem.

Once you finish the main story for Episode: Echoes and Failsafe gives you “Epilogue: Anomalous Voices,” your first and only step outside of “Encore” is on Europa.
Land in Charon’s Crossing and head over to Cadmus Ridge, where you should then enter the Bray Exoscience building — if you’re tracking the mission, the waypoint will take you to the general area. Head down until you enter the large room with the red central platform. Kill the Fallen inside but don’t head further into the complex. Instead, look right and you’ll find a purple blob floating on the other side of the glass that has the big blue guy printed on it.
Head inside, behind the glass, to find the first temporal anomaly. Interact with it to “Access Vex Simulation,” and progress the epilogue quest, which will ask you to head into “Encore” to find eight more.
Where to find all ‘Encore’ anomalies
In “Encore” — on the normal difficulty, at least — you’ll be able to find eight hidden temporal anomalies, which are spread out throughout the mission. When you find all eight, you’ll complete the quest and earn the special “Before Aurora” emblem.
Note: Make sure you activate the travel Nexus like you need to for the secret chests during your run, as you’ll need to get into one of those puzzles to get the final anomaly.

From the start of the mission, ignore the main path and walk up to the front-left part of the plateau, to the left of the Vex waterfall. You’ll see some cliff “stairs” if you peer over the edge, leading down. The first anomaly is on these stairs, where the reticle is in the image above.
If you’re having trouble finding it, go all the way down to the cave here, as it’s easier to spot the anomaly on your way back up.

The second anomaly doesn’t appear until you’re a good ways into the mission, during the first CONNECTION node and module puzzle.
After flipping the first switch, unplugging the CONNECTION module, and taking it over to the second node (which removes the barrier in the wall), look around the corner to the right and you’ll find the glowing anomaly.

The third anomaly comes after the first puzzle area, once you reach the white tower room where you have to defeat the Vex — just before the first piston. Before using the PARTITION to open the wall, head around the left side of the arena and you’ll find the anomaly sitting against the wall.

In the tower puzzle, after you’ve collected two of the ACCESS nodes and gone through the main portal to build the CONNECTION bridge, turn immediately left and you’ll find the anomaly sitting in the corner near the wall.

After you defeat the dual bosses, head through the portal and continue the mission. When you reach the first combat area, where you have to take out a Hydra and a Cyclops, turn around before you cross the gap.

You’ll find a ball sitting in some radiolarian fluid and then another ball covered in moss. Between the two balls is an anomaly tucked behind a tree.
‘Encore’ anomaly #6 location

Just after the second planetary piston in the mission, in the area with the large dome building in the center, you’ll find an anomaly sitting out in the open on the left side of the map.
‘Encore’ anomaly #7 location

In the final encounter area before you enter Maya’s lab and face the final boss, you’ll see another group of buildings and a big Cabal. Take out the Cabal and then turn around. On the cliff, you’ll see an anomaly floating above the moss.

The final anomaly is a sneaky one, as it’s in the Nexus in Maya’s lab. Once you get inside, activate the portal and head to the left, like you’re trying to get the fifth secret chest, which is hidden in a maze. Do the entire maze encounter and you’ll find the final anomaly in the room with the final node.
