Where does Abide the Return come from?

It is a Dreaming City reward. The game data credits the earlier version to activities in the Dreaming City, and Bungie's 9.7.0 notes name its origin trait, Advanced Reflexes, as the Dreaming City origin trait.

Is Abide the Return a raid weapon?

No. It belongs to the Dreaming City destination, not to a raid or dungeon, so there is no Deepsight Pattern for it.

Can I choose the perks on Abide the Return?

Yes, through the Weapon Perks option. With the two chosen-perk settings you tell the pro player which perk or perks you want, through the form entry Specify to a pro player. Rolls runs from 1 to 30.
