Season of Passage
A Destiny 2 seasonal event that plunged players into the Dreaming City's Vex-infested depths, offering the Shuro Chi dungeon and the fan-favorite Exotic hand cannon, The Last Word.
The Season of Passage is not a story campaign or narrative expansion within the Journey franchise; it is actually a limited-time seasonal event from the multiplayer online game Destiny 2, developed by Bungie and released in December 2021. It serves as a bridge between major expansions, focusing on new activities like the Shuro Chi dungeon and the introduction of the Exotic weapon, The Last Word. Because Journey (the franchise by thatgamecompany) has no seasonal events, campaigns named 'Season of Passage,' or characters associated with this specific title, there is no canonical story, lore, or campaign to document for the Journey universe.

Lore & Background
There is no lore for a 'Season of Passage' within the canon of the video game Journey. The title belongs exclusively to Destiny 2, where it marked a period of exploration in the Dreaming City and introduced the Vex-themed Shuro Chi dungeon. The narrative focused on the Traveler's light and the ongoing conflict with the Witness, themes entirely distinct from Journey's wordless meditation on life, death, and rebirth.
In Their Own Story
A question of identity arises when a traveler seeks the Season of Passage within the sands of the Mountain. They find only silence, for this path belongs to a different world of light and gunplay, not the quiet ascent of the robed wanderer. The true Journey remains unchanged: a solitary climb toward the sun, devoid of seasons, campaigns, or named events.
Reader's Guide
The request contains a fundamental premise error regarding the game franchises involved. There is no 'Season of Passage' in the Journey franchise by thatgamecompany. Journey consists of a single, linear experience released in 2012 (and later ports) where an anonymous robed figure travels from a desert to a mountain, encountering other players anonymously without text or voice chat. This season introduced the Shuro Chi dungeon and new exotic gear but is unrelated to Journey's narrative or mechanics. Because the subject does not exist within the specified canon (Journey), no story summary, plot points, or campaign details can be provided for it in that context. Any attempt to describe a 'Season of Passage' as part of Journey would constitute a fabrication of facts.
