"YOU HAVE SOUNDED THE HORN OF BATTLE, AND WAR HAS ARRIVED!"
— Xivu Arath

The Clash of the Hive Gods is a confrontation between the Vanguard, the forces loyal to Xivu Arath, and the Lucent Hive. After Ahsa revealed Savathûn was needed to find a way through the portal inside The Traveler created by The Witness, the Vanguard hesitated, worried that Savathûn might find a way to use them and trick them again, much like she did years prior when she disguised herself as Osiris. After sometime, an agreement was made with Immaru, the ghost of Savathûn, that they would aid the Vanguard in finding a way through the portal, on one condition: they deal with Savathûn's sister Xivu Arath. To challenge Xivu Arath, Eris Morn would transform herself into the Hive God of Vengeance and have the Guardian manipulate the Sword Logic to bring her tithes.
