Forum:The Hands of Darkness

The Hands of Darkness are a group of enemies allied with Forum:The Triumvirate. They consist mainly of Hive and House Salvation

Founding
When the Triumvirate arrived in Sol they knew they would need an army. One month before Savathun’s death, they took House of Salvation members and Savathûn's Brood to form The Hands of Darkness.

Battle of the Moon
While attempting to raid a research facility secretly owned by the Specters. The Triumvirate’s troops fought the Frames and Specters as the Triumvirate snuck into the info terminal. The Guardian received the disrtress call and witnessed Jay-11 and Fenchurch attempt to fight the Triumvirate. The guardian joined in yet still lost to Revenek and Calark. The forces pulled out, heading for Europa.

The Remnants
Hearing rumors of a powerful ai system and finally having the info to find them, the Hands of Darkness sent their command ship and pyramid The Ravenous to Europa where they discovered Remnant 2. They battled Salvation remnants, as well as Vex. Eventually, the Specters notified The Guardian so they assaulted the base indiscriminately killing all enemies. They eventually came across a Walker and Salvation troops led by Arvok, Champion held off Hive and traitor members of House Salvation. The guardian stopped both parties, killing Avrok. They found the Remnant core guarded by a zombie Stasis fallen made by Revenek called the Indomitable Wraith. As powerful as this monster was, the Guardian has slain more powerful creatures. This set their plans back a bit but found out about a Cabal train carrying the info to Remnant 7. Arriving at the train, Two Ghost Captains lead their forces on the train making their way from bottom to top. The Guardian and Fenchurch along side them stormed the ship, defeating all enemies. The leader of the train, Val Cal’ark managed to defeat a number of their forces before falling to The Guardian. A few hours later, The Hands of Darkness with a Hive Warship storm the crash sight but a Cabal Carrier deployed troops to counter this. The Guardian wanted to be the first to the new Remnant so they snuck past everyone at first but accidentally set off an alarm, giving everyone their location. The guardian powered through, finding the Cabal Info on where the Remnant was. At the time, the Hands of Darkness had a meeting. The Twelfth Disciple had recently taken over a remnant. They were doing well, they decided to send two of their Lieutenants to recruit members of the House of Dusk. They sent one to Nessus and one to Earth. These where hunted down by glimmer hungry guardians. The Hands of Darkness assaulted a Cabal base protecting Remnant 7 but this place already had info on where Calark, the Collector was. The Gaurdian learned his location and assaulted Remnant 9 lead by Calark. The Specters hired a three man fireteam to invade Remnant 9. This fireteam broke in through the secret entrance occupied by a group in the House of Dusk working for the Baron and mastermind Jalix. She was behind the heist to get Riskrunner and she sent Haviks, Dusk Baron to get it. She even almost acquired Bastion as Reysk and his friend Aksiniks both worked for her. However, The Hive forced hade already made themselves at home. The guardian came across an area holding multiple walkers and a Goliath tank, though none of these were active. In this area Talos, Patron of War fighting a Marauder with a Walker named Captain Galik though Galik was wounded and Talos was killed by the Gaurdian. The guardian came to a beach that had many fallen patrols in the area. The guardian eventually made it to a storage area and the entrance to the bunker. It seemed to be a hangar guarded by a Commando Captain. The guardian preserved into a train area similar to airlock six. It had four interceptors that weirdly the Fallen owned. They were guarded by two Vandals. These Interceptors eventually get destroyed by a train, the guardian boards a train but other trains that have fallen are chasing them as the fallen fires upon them. The train eventually stops in a area that has a purple gate. Next to it is a hole in the wall, inside is a Prison of the Elders style area where Aramak was overseeing a group of Hive acolytes and thralls do battle with a Fallen security squad. The guardian kills Aramak. The guardian goes on and kills the rest of Calark and Jalix’s forces. He then fights Calark in a long fight but wins, killing Calark. (Revenek’s end is TBA)

The Final Shape
In the Final Shape, The Guardian fights the Twelfth Disciple in a Dungeon. But, Arok has returned as a Hive Guardian strangely and has taken the Hands of Darkness to achieve the Crown of the Redeemer from the Lucent Brood and their leader Evalis. The guardian kills them in a strike.
