Mara Sov

Line 26:

Mara initiated the [[Reef Wars]] because she realized that if the Wolves succeeded in joining the other Fallen houses during the [[Battle of Twilight Gap]], the [[City]] would fall. Rather than risk losing a potential ally in order to remain hidden, she launched a surprise attack on the Fallen at [[Ceres]].<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', ''Destiny: House of Wolves, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Enemies#WANTED: Skolas, Kell of Kells|WANTED: Skolas, Kell of Kells]]''</ref> She succeeded in not only killing their Kell [[Virixas, Kell of Wolves|Virixas]], but also pitting the remaining Wolf leaders against one another.

However, upon examining him, Skolas whispered something Variks interpreted as "Light-snuffer" and "Dark-Binder", leading Mara to believe that a new, greater threat was on its way.

When [[Oryx]] invaded the System, Mara Sov met him in [[Battle of Saturn|battle]] at [[Saturn]]'s Rings. Her fleet challenged the Taken King in an effort to protect the Reef from further incursion, but it was decisively defeated by the [[Dreadnaught]]'s primary weapon. In the immediate aftermath, Mara was nowhere to be found and feared dead by her own people. Despite such a staggering loss, it was all seemingly part of a plan Mara had formulated in secret with [[Eris Morn]]. The entire battle was simply a delaying action; in using the Dreadnaught's weapon, Oryx destroyed most of his own fleet as well as the Awoken ships, forcing him to hold back from advancing into the inner system. The Awoken's sacrifice bought Earth and the Guardians enough time to react and take the fight to Oryx.
