{{Quote|Again I will confess. I am Eriana-3, of the Praxic Fire, and I know my flame goes out down here.

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.

Following Vell's death, Eriana and Sai were separated from Eris, Toland, and Omar. Exhausted and injured by their fights against the Hive, their own Light was being rapidly drained. Eriana was unable to find tracks to find their companions, and asked her Ghost for an update. She told Eriana that its Light was being drained quickly, and that Sai's Ghost was still functional for the moment but damaged beyond repair and that they had no chance to transmat out or send a message. Eriana ordered her to transmit one anyway, and she began to explain their current situation and how they had slaughtered untold numbers of Hive to get there. In the distance they heard Omnigul's screams, and Eriana stated that they were following the [[Hand of Crota]]. Sai told her the Hand was falling back towards Omnigul's tunnels, causing Eriana to end the message and ask Sai if she was ready. The Hunter claimed her knives were ready for another dance, and Eriana told her friend that she spoke little but always said the right things.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Hand_of_Crota|Hand of Crota]]''</ref>

Eriana and Sai failed to kill Omnigul or the Hand, and Sai was killed attempting to escape from Crota's Will. Eriana was left alone, badly hurt and drained of Light. She managed to make it through [[The Stills]] and reached the entrance to the [[Oversoul Throne]], but doing so cost her Ghost any chance of being able to resurrect her. Knowing that she would die in her attempt to slay Crota, she recorded one final message for her lost love Wei Ning that her Ghost would take to the spot where the Titan perished. She begged for Wei Ning's forgiveness for failing to kill Crota and leading her friends to their deaths, and bitterly regretted having trusted Toland's knowledge to help them survive their mission. She hoped that their fall would serve as a warning to others who might think to kill Crota, and wished that they would simply stay on Earth to defend the Last City rather than throw their lives away.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Moon#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Hellmouth_2|Ghost Fragment: The Hellmouth 2]]''</ref> Eriana then entered the Oversoul Throne, where her Light shined brightly before being snuffed out by<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Moon#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Hellmouth|Ghost Fragment: The Hellmouth]]''</ref> the Deathsong of [[Ir Yût, the Deathsinger]].<ref name="GFE3"/>
