The [[Drifter]], a rogue Light-bearer, managed to jury-rig his [[Ghost]] with parts salvaged from the Ghosts of his former crew, allowing it access to paracausal spectrums beyond that of the Light, including the Darkness-aligned powers of the Taken. From it, the Drifter is able to create [[Mote of Dark|Motes of Darkness]] and employed them as part of a game called "[[Gambit]]", pitting [[Guardians]] against their enemies and each other in a bid to harvest these Motes for himself. Among these Taken summoned during these Gambit matches are exceptionally powerful and ancient Taken known as [[Primeval (Taken)|Primevals]], which he can summon using Motes of Darkness. | The [[Drifter]], a rogue Light-bearer, managed to jury-rig his [[Ghost]] with parts salvaged from the Ghosts of his former crew, allowing it access to paracausal spectrums beyond that of the Light, including the Darkness-aligned powers of the Taken.

For months, the Dreaming City continued to be infested by the Taken and their [[Taken Blight|blights]] unaware from the outside until [[Uldren Sov]] was manipulated by Riven into unleashing an [[Voice of Riven|agent]] of hers from the City, | For months, the Dreaming City continued to be infested by the Taken and their [[Taken Blight|blights]] unaware from the outside until [[Uldren Sov]] was manipulated by Riven into unleashing an [[Voice of Riven|agent]] of hers from the City, which the Guardian quickly killed. [[Petra Venj]], investigating the source of Uldren's corruption and the Taken curse within the City, surmised Riven as the cause after having made contact with Queen [[Mara Sov]] at the [[Oracle Engine]]. At the Queen's behest, Petra enlisted the support from the [[Vanguard]] to have Riven killed and her heart cleansed of her Taken essence. | ||
A Guardian Raid team was quickly formed and breached their way into the corrupted heart of the City, where they freed the [[Techeun]]s [[Kalli]] and [[Shuro Chi]] from their Taken corruption. While the Taken Riven baited the Guardians into killing her, they inadvertently made a single collective wish, allowing Riven to alter the rules of ascendancy within the Dreaming City according to [[Toland]]. Instead of ending the curse, Riven's wish increasingly worsened its conditions; Taken energies having saturated and engulfed huge portions of the city. | A Guardian Raid team was quickly formed and breached their way into the corrupted heart of the City, where they freed the [[Techeun]]s [[Kalli]] and [[Shuro Chi]] from their Taken corruption.
