'''Xivu Arath's Horde''' or '''Xivu's Brood''', is a [[Hive]] brood which serves [[Xivu Arath, God of War]]. Most of the Hive appear similar to the members of [[Savathûn's Brood]] with more muscular and organic morphs compared to other Hive.

==History==
===Scorn Breakout===
Two years following the death of her brother [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] and sometime after the [[Red War]], Xivu Arath began committing her forces to the Solar System, possibly in aid of her sister Savathûn or for her own schemes. An Ogre, [[Megor, Spawn of Xivu]], was imprisoned in the [[Prison of Elders]] had seemingly been leading a Hive cult with [[Ir Yun, Cult of Megor]] and would later break free from containment during the [[Scorn]]'s [[Hunt for the Scorn|jailbreak]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - [[Last Call]]''</ref>

===Curse on the Dreaming City===
After the breakout, a substantial force of Hive and Taken had begun to pillage [[Awoken]] artifacts for unknown purposes. It would later be revealed that members of Xivu's own brood, [[Sugroth, Shield of Xivu Arath|Sugroth]], [[Hasaak, Venom of Xivu Arath|Hasaak]] and [[Tulkor, Ferocity of Xivu Arath|Tulkor]] were sent to both steal the artifacts and keep them out of the Guardian's reach. As the Guardians would cut through Xivu's forces, they would find out that some Taken champions, [[Crorok, Will of Xivu Arath|Crorok]] and [[Xaras, Greed of Xivu Arath|Xaras]] were apparently obedient to the war goddess with the latter being the commanding force of the Taken and Hive's pillaging schemes.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - [[Broken Courier]]''</ref> 

After the blunder of their artifact theft, members of Xivu's own lineage, [[An Ragaar, Son of Xivu Arath|An Ragaar]],  [[Tir Balok, Daughter of Xivu Arath|Tir Balok]] and [[Xavan, Daughter of Xivu Arath|Xavan]], while aided by [[Ruithe, Sworn to Xivu Arath|Ruithe]], utilized [[Blight]]s to block communications with the Oracle Engine from both forces of the Scorn and Guardian alike. However, the Guardians would take relics dropped by Xivu's slain forces to destroy the Blights and gain entry towards the [[Spine of Keres]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - [[The Oracle Engine]]''</ref>

===Lunar Nightmares===
While the Horde itself does not make an appearance during the [[Haunting of the Moon]], the [[Nightmare]] of one of her champions, [[Nightmare of Jaxx, Claw of Xivu Arath|Jaxx, Claw of Xivu Arath]], would manifest on the [[Moon]], among the many other Nightmares to be confronted by the [[Guardian]]s.

===Rise of the Wrathborn===
In a ploy to seize power in the wake of many of the celestial bodies of the system vanishing, Xivu Arath's influence in the form of her Wrathborn and the [[High Celebrant of Xivu Arath]] would appear. The High Celebrant was sent to Luna to wrest free the [[Hidden Swarm]] from [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|The Witch Queen's]] plans and instead reform Luna in Xivu's image, a warring world where all tithes were tribute to her. The High Celebrant would have their plans thwarted by [[Osiris]], who slew the near entirety of the Scarlet Court. However, Osiris would fall and strain against the sheer will of Xivu Arath's projection, allowing the High Celebrant to mark runes around him and prepare him for his death. Osiris was saved by the sacrifice of his [[Ghost]] [[Sagira]], who self-destructed to stun and halt the Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/16)''', ''[[Weblore]]:[[Weblore:Season of the Hunt|Season of the Hunt]] - [[Weblore:Season of the Hunt#Immolant Pt. 2|Immolant Pt. 2]]''</ref> Osiris was greeted with little respite though, for the High Celebrant immediately sought off to hunt him, only to be thwarted again by [[The Guardian]] and the [[Uldren Sov|Crow]], forcing the Celebrant to retreat to the [[Ascendant Plane]].<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]] - [[Trail of the Hunted]]''</ref>

[[File:HighCelebrant2.jpg|300px|thumb|Guardians battling the High Celebrant]]
With Osiris reunited with the forces of [[Light]], though in mourning, the extent of the Horde's invasion was unveiled. Xivu Arath's first operation consisted of deploying [[Cryptolith]]s, organic Hive structures that borrow into the Material Plane and root themselves, calling out to nearby beings, drawing them closer to transform them into [[Wrathborn]].{{Citation needed}} These Cryptoliths started corrupting Eliksni, but quickly spread to Hive and Cabal. Commanded and aided in their spread by the High Celebrant of Xivu Arath, the Wrathborn would become Xivu Arath's vanguard in the system. To combat this threat, the Guardians agree to a partnership with [[The Spider|the Spider]], also the master of the Crow, revealed to be Uldren Sov revived as a Guardian. In the ensuing weeks, Xivu Arath's Horde would fight alongside the Wrathborn born of [[House of Spider]], [[House of Dusk]], and even other Hive, attempting to establish a foothold while the Guardians hunted the most powerful of them.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]] - [[Wrathborn Hunts]]''</ref> As for the corrupted Red Legion, none were encountered, which has concerned Crow.{{Citation needed}} After several weeks of tracking and eliminations, the Guardians managed to corner the High Celebrant, and with their death, the first foray of the Horde into the Solar System would be momentarily halted.<ref name="CDG">'''Bungie (2021/1/5)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]] - [[Coup de Grâce]]''</ref>

===Fall of Torobatl===
{{Quote|MY HOME IS WAR. MY VOICE IS A BATTLE SONG. FOR AS LONG AS YOU HAVE WORSHIPED WAR, YOU HAVE WORSHIPED ME. I AM HERE TO CLAIM MY TRIBUTE. IT IS OVERDUE.|Xivu Arath to the Cabal of Torobatl}}
Sometime following the Hunt for the Wrathborn, Savathûn sought to undermine the Cabal homeworld of [[Torobatl]] by guising as her sister by corrupting Evocate-General [[Umun'arath]] into becoming a worshipper of Xivu Arath. Driven by obsession over war, Umun'arath undertook a Hive ritual in the capital city to summon the God of War to their planet, which was accidentally completed when [[Empress Caiatl|Caiatl, the Princess-Imperial]] slew Umun'arath, providing the blood and sacrifice needed to open a portal for Xivu Arath to cross through with her armada of [[War moon]]s and her armies of Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Empress|Empress]], [[Lore:Empress#CHAPTER_5:_NEW_GODS|CHAPTER 5: NEW GODS]]''</ref> As she [[Fall of Torobatl|invaded Torobatl]], Xivu Arath declared that the Cabal had been worshipping her for as long as they venerated war and that she had finally come to claim her "overdue" tribute.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Empress|Empress]], [[Lore:Empress#CHAPTER_6:_BATTLE_SONG|CHAPTER 6: BATTLE SONG]]''</ref> Her never-ending forces overwhelmed the Cabal's defenses and drove Empress Caiatl to evacuate the remaining population to the remnants of her fleet and retreat to the Sol System.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Empress|Empress]], [[Lore:Empress#CHAPTER_7:_CORONATION|Empress CHAPTER 7: CORONATION]]''</ref>

===Hunt for the Witch Queen===
Despite the "gift" Savathûn had given to Xivu Arath, the Hive God of War had begun to actively hunt her sister, at the behest of [[The Witness|another]], following the arrival of the Black Fleet in the Sol System. To save herself from her sister's wrath, Savathûn adopted the form of Osiris after he had become lightless when the High Celebrant killed his Ghost, [[Sagira]]. Knowing that her sister would never think to look for her in a place of the Light, Savathûn laid in hiding at the Last City, posing as the legendary Warlock, aiding the Guardians in their efforts against Caiatl's chosen champions and the [[Endless Night]] that plagued the Last City. However, after Lakshmi-2's failed conspiracy against the Fallen [[House of Light]] that had allied with Guardians, Savathûn fled to the Reef, meeting with the Awoken Queen, [[Mara Sov]]. The two queens would come to a bargain, in exchange for excising her worm, the Witch Queen would release Osiris. Further, Mara Sov required the Guardian's assistance in restoring the Dreaming City from the Ascendant Realm's corruption using the dimensional Ley Lines but also wished to prevent Xivu Arath from using the [[Blind Well]] and its dimensional properties to her advantage. To solve this and excise the worm in Savathûn, Mara Sov required her coven of [[Techeun]]s that once escorted her in the Ascendant Realm which had been lost across the [[Ley Lines]] after Xivu Arath and her horde cornered them.{{Citation needed}}

Xivu Arath's Horde, both Hive and Taken, would constantly battle the Guardians within the Blind Well, hoping to claim it for Xivu, as corrupting either the Blind Well or the Ley Lines would allow Xivu Arath to bring an "infection of war", as Mara Sov put it, throughout the universe.{{Citation needed}} Her forces, under the control of one of Mara's [[Techeuns]], were able to infect the Ley Lines within the [[Shattered Realm]] which had appeared to be a fractured version of the [[EDZ]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/8/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Shattered Realm: Forest of Echoes]]''</ref>

In the coming weeks, it would later be discovered that forces of the Scorn seemed to have allied with Xivu Arath or forced into submission under her rule. These Scorn would also be sent to infect the Blind Well under the command of [[Kruutiks, Reefbane]]. Scorn within the Shattered Realm managed to detain a Techeun within a Fallen Cryopod and kept it under guard through the use of a [[Scorn Scrapwalker]] and their region of the Ascendant Plane appeared to be a part of the Tangled Shore.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/8/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Shattered Realm: Debris of Dreams]]''</ref> 

Xivu's forces would eventually take hold within another part of the Shattered Realm, this time being fractured regions of the Moon under the control of [[An Xohol, Jaws of Xivu Arath]]. At the time, Xivu had also sent in her various hordes under ''Pillager Warbands'' to stop the Guardian's attempts to locate the Awoken secrets within the Shattered Realm under the guise of Hive, Taken and Scorn.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/8/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Shattered Realm: Ruins of Wrath]]''</ref>

On the day of the ritual to exorcise Savathûn's worm, Xivu Arath's brood, in a last-ditch effort to capture their master's sister, launched a massive assault on the Dreaming City and attempted to overwhelm the Blind Well. Despite being unsuccessful in preventing the realignment of the Ley Lines, this would allow the Hive army to travel through the Ascendant Plane and begin swarming the Ritual Spire, in which the exorcism was taking place until they were once again pushed back by the Guardians. Desperate to capture Savathûn, Kruutiks, [[Kholks, Taken of Xivu Arath|Kholks]], and finally [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]], forced their way into the Spire, followed by hordes of Xivu's forces, and attacked the ritual, but ultimately failed and were defeated at the hands of the Lightbearers.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/8/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Exorcism]]''</ref>

===Corrupting the Warmind===
After failing to capture the Witch Queen, Xivu Arath's Horde would lie low for some time as the Guardians themselves dealt with Savathûn and her newly formed [[Lucent Brood]], who both now wielded the Light. However, as the [[The Witness|Witness]], the true master of the Black Fleet, drew near, Xivu Arath sought to prepare the system for its invasion and thus began to target the Warmind [[Rasputin]] and his formidable Warsat Network. Further, the Witness gave Xivu Arath and her Horde free rein to punish [[Eramis]] and her [[House of Salvation]] for failing to acquire the Relics of [[Nezarec]], mainly driving many of its members into becoming Wrathborn or killing lieutenants and resurrecting them as Scorn to serve Xivu Arath, such as [[Praksis]].<ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [[Heist Battleground: Moon]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [[Operation: Seraph's Shield]]''</ref>

Though Xivu Arath and her Horde managed to acquire access to some of Rasputin's defense protocol and entrance to his Submind Vaults through the use of Eramis' House Splicers, the whole of the Network remained out of their reach. To achieve their goals, Xivu Arath directed her forces to target one of the Warmind's chief creators, Clovis Bray I on Europa. However, the Guardians stymied their efforts by routing the Exoscience Labs where Clovis was stationed and brought him into the plan to restore the Warmind and counter Xivu Arath.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [[Hierarchy]]''</ref> The Bray patriarch directed the Guardians to gather Rasputin's subminds to aid in Rasputin's restoration, leading them to infiltrate each of the Submind Vaults and slay their defenders, most notably [[Warwatcher, Eye of Xivu Arath]] and Kelgorath, who Xivu Arath had restored and made a Darkblade.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [[Heist Battleground: Europa]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [[Heist Battleground: Mars]]''</ref>

However, as the Guardians made progress in restoring Rasputin, the Vanguard's leaders, mainly Mara Sov and Osiris, began to wonder about Xivu Arath's true goals, as she only had her Wrathborn leading the fight, a token force, to stop them, leading the Awoken Queen to believe that seizing the Warsat Network may not be the War God's plan.{{Citation needed}} With deduction and reasoning, Mara concluded that Xivu Arath wants the Guardians to restore Rasputin so the Warmind can use his arsenal to smite her forces in which the resulting conflict and bloodshed would not only feed her worm but also serve as fuel to open a portal to summon the full force of her army onto to Earth. Such an invasion would overwhelm humanity, much like the Cabal experienced on Torobatl.<ref name="Quorum">'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [https://youtu.be/Bf72Fazd3Ck?t=310&si=U6a98L4NrQHt7RNu Quorum]''</ref>

Reasoning that they can't restore Rasputin and let him use his arsenal yet at the same time, they can't allow Eramis to access the Network, the Vanguard Coalition agreed that they restore Rasputin as planned but refrain from using his Warsats. Thus, they would create a stalemate with Xivu Arath, denying her the requirements she needs for her ritual.<ref name="Quorum"/> Unfortunately, Eramis and her Splicers would manage to gain access to Rasputin's ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE protocol, the order that Rasputin created which would direct the Warsats to target the Traveler in the event it ever began to leave Earth. The Guardians raced to the control hub of the network, the orbital station, Seraph Station, to prevent this but were impeded by Eramis' forces and that of Xivu Arath's Horde, led by [[Ir Garza, Scourge of Earth]].<ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [[ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE (mission)|ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE]]''</ref> Despite their efforts, Rasputin destroyed the Warsat Network by sacrificing himself to activate his AURORA SACRIFICE protocol, robbing Xivu Arath's requirements for her ritual.<ref name="Awake">'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]] - [https://youtu.be/Bf72Fazd3Ck?t=424 Awake]''</ref>

With her plans in shambles, Xivu Arath ordered her Horde to withdraw from Earth and Mars but they would continue to cling onto Europa, leading Guardians to continue operations on the frozen moon.{{Citation needed}}

===Depths of Titan===
Following the Vanguard's attempts to pass through the gateway in the Traveler left by the Witness, they received word of Titan's return and heard a distress call from [[Deputy Commander Sloane]]. Ecstatic, Zavala gathered a team involving the Guardian to locate Sloane but as they landed at the New Pacific Arcology, they were swarmed with Xivu Arath's Horde and Taken, even hearing the bellowing voice of Xivu Arath herself. Despite the Horde's efforts, the Guardians were able to locate Sloane but one kilometer down within the moon's methane oceans. Though Sloane was partially afflicted with Taken energies when Titan disappeared, she was saved by a massive aquatic creature named [[Ahsa]] who claimed to be an old enemy of The Witness and she had a message for the Guardians regarding The Witness.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/5/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Deep]] - [[The Descent]]''</ref> Agreeing to aid Sloane in deciphering Ahsa's messages using a coral egregore found deep in Titan's depths, battling Xivu Arath's Horde and Taken that sought to stop them.

Ultimately, Ahsa's message involved the origins of The Witness itself. Before Ahsa could finish delivering the final part of her message, she became caught in a ritual by Xivu Arath, led by her [[Scream of Xivu Arath|screams]], that would Take her. Scrambling together, the Guardian, Saint-14, Sloane, Zavala and Saladin managed to disrupt the ritual, freeing Ahsa and forcing Xivu Arath's Horde into a full retreat, allowing Sloane to interpret Ahsa's final message.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/5/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Deep]] - [[Barotrauma]]''</ref>

===Clash of the Hive Gods===
With the [[Vanguard]] forming a bargain with [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn's]] Ghost [[Immaru]], [[Eris Morn]] would transform into the Hive God of Vengeance so she would gain enough strength to defeat Xivu Arath.

Xivu Arath would respond to this and send her forces led by her champion the [[Leviathan-Eater, Bane of the Ammonites]], to invade the [[Court of Savathûn]], and steal the tributes hidden in her sister's oubliette. After her forces failed to defeat the Guardian in the [[Altars of Summoning]], she would call upon the Leviathan-Eater to test their capabilities. The champion chooses to withdraw and flee from the battle to prepare for their next battle and to rally the Horde. Later the Ogre [[Golakh, Befouler]] would assault [[Savathûn's Spire]], leading an army of [[Wrathborn]] [[Fallen]], despite their efforts they would be unable to defeat the Guardians and would fail to gain dominance over the Spire.

With Eris Morn beginning her final tithing ritual in the [[Altar of the Sword]], the Leviathan-Eater and his forces would arrive through a portal in the altar to confront the Guardian once again. Despite his power, the Guardian would slay him, and Eris Morn would kill the newly resurrected Savathûn to gain enough power to banish Xivu Arath from her Throne World, the [[Black Terrace]]. Even with Xivu Arath's banishment from her Throne World, her Brood would continue their assault. [[Arok'tha, Sworn to Xivu Arath]] and its forces would arrive through the Altar of the Sword to confront the Guardians, however, they would be no match for the Lightbearers' power and would be slain in battle.

===Hunt for Riven's Clutch===
With Xivu Arath's banishment, many Taken would become directionless with no commanding will. However, some Taken would remain under the God of War's influence through her Celebrants.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/11/28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Wish]] - [[Riven's Lair]]''</ref> [[Roln'gur, Blade-bound to the Terrace]] and its forces would invade [[Riven's Lair]] in an attempt to corrupt one of the eggs. Although they succeeded in corrupting it, their plan would be foiled by the Guardian, who would slay them and cleanse the egg of its corruption.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/11/28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Wish]] - [[Synchysis]]''</ref>

===Ascendant Regrouping===
During the [[Operation Ahamkara|operation]] to stop the Witness and prevent them from completing the [[Final Shape]], the Guardian would help [[Micah-10]] to do what they could to heal the [[The Traveler|Traveler]] and helping to locate several lost [[Ghost]]s. One of these [[Dark Monastery#Lost Ghosts: The Ascendant|missions]] involved finding and saving Akasha, a Ghost that had been systemically scanning Awoken territory for years and whose last known location was the Dreaming City. Together with Crow and Glint, the Guardian would traverse the portion of the Ascendant Realm where [[Priest of Incaru|Priests of Incaru]] communed in the realm and finally locate Akasha, thus recovering her data. Mara Sov, Micah and Crow would deduce from the movements across the Ley Lines, that, as Xivu Arath didn't join the Witness in its invasion of [[the Pale Heart]], she was playing to turn the forces of the Black Fleet and the Coalition against each other to gain an advantage. Xivu Arath would continue to move the Hive forces from her brood through the Ascendant Plane en masse, while Mara was focused on holding back the Final Shape and couldn't keep an eye on her city's Ley Lines, cutting her losses from her previous master and gathering her strength for the war that would follow the [[War against the Witness]].<ref name="ascendant">'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[Dark Monastery#Lost Ghosts: The Ascendant|The Ascendant]]''</ref>

Another of these [[Heist Battleground: Mars#Lost Ghosts: The Past|missions]] involved finding and saving Citrine, a Ghost obsessed with Warmind hardware and whose last known location was Mars. Here the Guardian and Micah would traverse the unpredictable, ghostly time rifts that cursed the planet and sometimes would snap into focus and present a moment out of time as real as any other, despite not allowing the Guardian from actually affecting the past through time. Exploring further, Mara would have alerted them that as the Final Shape was pressed into reality the already fragile time rifts were tearing apart Mars, bringing portions of the Warmind facility from the past and making them operate in and out of their time. Micah would also detect Xivu Arath's Hive forces sent back to the planet to investigate the time anomalies and the team would confront and kill [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]], manifested from when he was trying to conquer the location, to prevent Xivu Arath from retrieving any functional Warmind tech while Mara would dispatch her Techeuns to seal the rift even if temporarily.<ref name="past">'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[Heist Battleground: Mars#Lost Ghosts: The Past|The Past]]''</ref>
