As Savathûn neared gaining complete control over the Taken, within the [[Reef]], the Witch-Queen gained a new and powerful ally in the form of [[Riven]], the last known [[Ahamkara]] in the Solar System; Taken by Oryx during the onset of the Taken War and the first invasion of the [[Dreaming City]]. However, unlike most Taken, Riven retained her sense of self and free-will. With Oryx's passing and the Taken leaderless, Savathûn made contact with the Taken within the City and Riven, who agreed to serve the Witch-Queen. Through Riven, the Taken were prepared to corrupt the whole of the Awoken and launch an invasion of the Reef, using proxies like [[Uldren Sov]] and his [[Fallen]] [[Scorn]]. Though Riven succeeded in opening the gateway to the City, the Guardian's efforts thwarted her plans, leaving Riven vulnerable to attack. The Guardians, aided by their Awoken allies and the formerly Taken [[Techeuns]], managed to kill Riven. Nonetheless, her death served a purpose as the Ahamkara transcended death and granted one last wish: blighting the Dreaming City with Taken energies. | As Savathûn neared gaining complete control over the Taken, within the [[Reef]], the Witch-Queen gained a new and powerful ally in the form of [[Riven]], the last known [[Ahamkara]] in the Solar System; Taken by Oryx during the onset of the Taken War and the first invasion of the [[Dreaming City]].

Whether Savathûn | Whether Savathûn was implied to have aligned with her sister, [[Xivu Arath]], has taken measures to assume control over the Taken and Hive within the Dreaming City. Entities sworn to the Hive's God of War have appeared stealing Awoken relics of dangerous knowledge, with powerful Taken creatures supporting them. Though the Guardians put a stop to this scheme, it proves that the two scheming sisters have shared a seemingly mutual alliance to seize their brother's Taken army for themselves. | ||
To further her goals and maintain her advantage, Savathûn entrusted her daughter, [[Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return]] to continue the Taken Curse within the Dreaming City and find a way to invade the [[Distributary]], the true origination of the Awoken, to reach new bounds of godly strength. However, her daughter's efforts would be for naught. For despite having a horde of Taken and Hive at her command, [[Mara Sov]] called upon the Guardians to fight back against the Taken corruption. Battling their way to the center of [[Eleusinia]], the Throne World of the Awoken Queen, the Guardians fought with Dûl Incaru and despite her Taken powers, the Eternal Return failed in her mission, falling to the Warriors of Light. The Taken corruption in the Dreaming City receded as a result. | To further her goals and maintain her advantage, Savathûn entrusted her daughter, [[Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return]] to continue the Taken Curse within the Dreaming City and find a way to invade the [[Distributary]], the true origination of the Awoken, to reach new bounds of godly strength.
