Root of Nightmares is the Destiny 2 Lightfall Raid and the official Raid Race is almost upon us. With every Raid in Destiny 2, there is a big Raid Race event where the first Fireteam to finish every encounter, loot the final chest, and return to orbit are rewarded with, in this case, the Root of Nightmares World First Raid belt.
