During the battle, Te'Qal was able to utilize the command sleeves of other piloting Qugu in the fleet, including a captain who had been killed in the battle, to fight the Hive. One of their captains, [[Je'Gana]], questioned why the Hive did not commit their entire force to attacking as they had to know that they had the numbers to overwhelm them. Te'Qal answered that they didn't have to as they were laying traps to bleed them out and reminded them that their objective was to defend the groves, explaining that the vision he had experienced was meant to prepare for this event instead of to prevent it, to see that the Quga survived even at the cost of Seht.<ref name="Split"/> | During the battle, Te'Qal was able to utilize the command sleeves of other piloting Qugu in the fleet, including a captain who had been killed in the battle, to fight the Hive.

A circular Hive flagship then emerged from a tear and moved to high above the Mountain before charging a singularity of [[soulfire]] at its center as Seht's rail cannon defenses shredded any Tomb Ship that positioned themself between the ship and the planet. Te'Qal would take the opportunity to attack, getting an advantage with their superior tactics to pry the Hive's defensive line open to allow the Qugu's rail cannons to fire on the Hive flagship in the hopes of taking it down to end the assault. However, the the flagship would successfully detonate its gathered soulfire, taking out ships on both sides in a massive shockwave.<ref name="Split"/> | A [[The Lure|circular Hive flagship]] then emerged from a tear and moved to high above the Mountain before charging a singularity of [[soulfire]] at its center as Seht's rail cannon defenses shredded any Tomb Ship that positioned themself between the ship and the planet.

The blast would also unearth a [[Pyramid]] that had been buried under the mountain, sending debris to crush defensive installations and any remaining Ark-ships. It then unleashed a pulse of resonance that obliterates the remains of the mountain before rising to meet the Hive flagship. As the Hive celebrate the Pyramid's unearthing and they descend to Seht's surface, Te'Qal orders the Qugu abandon the planet.<ref name="Split"/> After weeks of travel, they had managed the jump gate to Se'Otan. Te'Qal had attempted to keep morale up with many speeches, but was exhausted after everything. Using a mist of jaw-beast nectar to speak with one of his accentors, [[Te'Dura]], for guidance, he was shown visions of a test that was intended for Te'Qal to lose where he used maneuvers learned from Te'Dura to defeat a [[Murin]] invasion and an uprising of Qugu who had become disconnected from the rest of their people, which led to him attaining the rank of Warden. Te'Dura told him that there was victory in darkness that Te'Qal needed to find.<ref name="Cry"/> | The blast would also unearth a [[Pyramid]] that had been buried under the mountain, sending debris to crush defensive installations and any remaining Ark-ships.

The Qugu fleet would pass through the jump gate. However, the gate had been tampered with by the Hive, taking them to an ambush of Hive ships and the Pyramid instead of Se'Otan, where the Hive would begin attacking any ship that passed through the gate. Te'Qal ordered the remaining warships to protect the ark-ships, but the Hive outnumbered them and began wearing them down through numbers over the Qugu's weaponry.<ref name="Cry"/> Suddenly, another large Hive ship, belonging to [[Oryx, the Taken King|Auryx]],<ref name="XXIII"/> appeared to attack Savathûn's ship. After it had destroyed it with a pulse similar to what had been fired from the Pyramid, Te'Qal took advantage of the distraction ordered the remaining ships on the Pyramid, intending to destroy it if they couldn't defeat the Hive. Combining the power of all the remaining ark-ships and ancient power, the Qugu fire a beam into the Pyramid, successfully destroying it. However, the resulting Resonance wave would destroy the remaining Qugu ships as Te'Qal heard [[The Witness|a collection of voices]] to take their hand and find salvation.<ref name="Cry"/> | The Qugu fleet would pass through the jump gate.
