Good morning, Riddlers and #Destiny. Since yesterday's riddle was a complete dump, I made my hardest riddle yet! Good luck, you'll need it.
[i]An endless paradox. An unstoppable force. A contender of ancient evil, evil decapitated, yet not. Perhaps I was made in his presence, along with my contents and symbolism. All know me, all pursue me. A lord of the sky, a lord of radiance, I lay to rest on your true goal. But am I truly resting, Guardian? Come, face me, and take your prized possessions. Fight. Kill. Survive.[/i]

Answer: [spoiler]Phoenix on chest in the lighthouse[/spoiler]
Explanation:
[spoiler][i]An endless paradox. An unstoppable force. A contender of ancient evil, evil decapitated, yet not.[/i]
This talks about Osiris. An endless paradox is the VoG, an unstoppable force is the Vex, and Osiris fought the Gorgons in the VoG before he decoded the Vex. Gorgons were part of Greek mythology, monsters turning you to stone in one look. Perseus decapitated Medusa, a Gorgon, but not a Vex Gorgon.
[i]Perhaps I was made in his presence, along with my contents and symbolism.[/i]
The chest is linked to the Trials of Osiris, along with the Phoenix.
The rest is pretty self-explanatory.
