Once a member of the Divine Chorus of [[Forum:The Polyphony|The Polyphony]], after being falsely blamed for a "great discordance", she would destroy her own people with the quaint assistance of [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain|Nezarec]], who took a great interest in the psionically powerful [[Forum:Kshiri|Kshiri]]. Little is known about her doings apart from the Witness's fondness for the Kshiri singer, deeming her the judge of the abyss; she is responsible for the destruction of countless worlds she deemed "unworthy" of the [[Final Shape]] and would even recruit the [[Chimera]] to the Witness's cause. | ||

However, | When she encountered the [[Eliksni]], however, she would be assigned to their conversion to the [[Darkness]] at the behest of the Witness and sought to personally recruit [[Forum:Israhn|Israhn]] if all else failed. However, her plans would be foiled with the arrival of the [[Traveler]], as her master's great adversary immediately converted the Eliksni and dispatched [[Forum:Lumis, the Warden|Lumis]] to hunt her down. Following which, she would have been captured by the floral agent of [[Light]] and imprisoned deep within its lucent heart. During her incarceration, her warden would try to turn her away from the Darkness to no avail, where she was then put into a deep slumber, placed in advanced stasis and flooded with light to prevent her influence from spreading. | ||
Following the events of [[The Final Shape]], [[House of Salvation]] forces would infiltrate the scarred Traveler at the behest of her Chimera pets in an effort to free her. After orchestrating them to deceive the [[Guardian]] [[Fireteam]] into freeing her, she would finally break free from her lucent sarcophagus, utilizing her [[Darkness]] powers, as well as the Light she stole from the prison around her, in an effort to finally fulfill her master's desire and avenge her failure with the extinction of the [[Last City]] and her allies. However, despite her new powers and psionic capabilities, she would officially be slain. | |||
