After the Disaster, Eriana was consumed by the desire to gain vengeance for Wei Ning and so devoted herself to Crota's destruction.<ref name="BofC">'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Blades_of_Crota|Blades of Crota]]''</ref> She worked together with the Hunter [[Eris Morn]] in order to solve Crota's apparent immortality. Without a ready solution, they sought out knowledge from forbidden Hive arcana, in the form of the exiled Guardian [[Toland, the Shattered]]. Toland described the method in which they could defeat their foe by entering the [[Ascendant Realm]] and slaying the Hive Prince in his throne world. Although Eriana was disturbed by the mad Warlock's obsession with learning Hive secrets and their secret song about death, she and Eris recruited him to join their mission. She also asked three other Guardians, [[Omar Agah]], [[Sai Mota]], and [[Vell Tarlowe]], to aid them their quest to defeat Crota.

After they landed on the Moon and began making their way to the entrance of the [[Temple of Crota]], Eriana and the others questioned Toland about the threats they would face. As they discussed the [[Blade of Crota|Blades of Crota]], Eriana disagreed when Vell stated they were more than just [[Knight]]s, and was insulted when he said that calling them just Knights would be like calling her a tin can. Toland agreed with Vell, stating | After they landed on the Moon and began making their way to the entrance of the [[Temple of Crota]], Eriana and the others questioned Toland about the threats they would face. As they discussed the [[Blade of Crota|Blades of Crota]], Eriana disagreed when Vell stated they were more than just [[Knight]]s, and was insulted when he said that calling them just Knights would be like calling her a tin can. Toland agreed with Vell, stating there was a dark purpose to the edge of the Blades swords, and Eriana questioned if it was darker than death, causing Toland to claim death would be like peace compared to the shadows the blades cast, The team discussed the thousands of Guardians cut down by the Blades, and Eriana bitterly reflected that the Vanguard should have known better than to assault the Hive fortresses. When Eris worried that Light would not be enough to stop the Hive, Eriana told her that they would simply take their blades and cut them down one-by-one if needed. Eris asked if she would truly use a weapon of Darkness, and Eriana stated that she would do anything to avenge the Guardians killed by the Hive, although she had to stop herself from revealing she only wished to avenge Wei Ning's death.<ref name="BofC"/> They then discussed [[Sardon, Fist of Crota]], who was one of Crota's leading generals. When Vell stated that he had faith in their Light and his to stop the Fist, Eriana told him that their mission was not about faith but vengeance.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Sardon.2C_Fist_of_Crota|Sardon, Fist of Crota]]''</ref> | ||
As they descended into the Temple and fought through heavy Hive resistance, they heard screams from deeper into the Hive's warrens. Toland identified them as the cries of [[Omnigul, Will of Crota]], and that the announced the birth of new Hive spawn and issued orders to the Hive. Eriana commented that she heard those screams even when they were not there, and wished she could tear the throat of Omnigul out. Toland commented that their mission would be close to successful if she did, as it would end Crota's threat in the physical world. The fireteam decided to pursue the screams to find and eliminate Omnigul.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Omnigul.2C_Will_of_Crota|Omnigul, Will of Crota]]''</ref> However, the fireteam soon suffered their first casualty when Vell underestimated a group of [[Thrall]] and became overwhelmed by their ability to smother his Light.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Enemy of My Enemy]]''</ref> | As they descended into the Temple and fought through heavy Hive resistance, they heard screams from deeper into the Hive's warrens.
