The House of Spider would find itself splintered after a falling out from within the Spider's immediate family. <ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/anarchy?highlight=Anarchy</ref> While the Spider's forces maintain their alliance with the Last City, a rogue force, under the command of the Spider's brother, [[Siviks, Lost to None|Siviks]], grew too ambitious and decided to seize power over the Fallen in the wake of the Scorn's loss of leadership and escaping incarceration at the [[Prison of Elders]], forming his syndicate called the [[Kell's Scourge]]. Quickly establishing themselves as the Spider's competition.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/the-new-syndicates-identity</ref>

At first, the Guardians did not notice Siviks until he and his group stole valuable advanced technology from the [[Black Armory]] and smuggled it across the Fallen. This granted Siviks the power he needed to assert his rule and allow him to gain the allegiance of deserting Fallen from the House of Dusk.<ref> https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/scourge-of-the-armory</ref> However, news of their theft and pushing into the Spider's territory reached the Last City. As a result, the Armory's curator, [[Ada-1]], formed an alliance with the Guardians and the Spider to end the threat of Siviks and the Kell's Scourge before they steal any more of her armory's weapons and cause irreparable damage.
At first, the Guardians did not notice Siviks until he and his group stole and repurposed valuable advanced technology from the [[Black Armory]] and smuggled it across the Fallen. This granted Siviks the power he needed to assert his rule and allow him to gain the allegiance of deserting Fallen from the House of Dusk.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, Transcript: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/scourge-of-the-armory Scourge of the Armory]''</ref> However, news of their theft and pushing into the Spider's territory reached the Last City. As a result, the Armory's curator, [[Ada-1]], collaborated with the Guardians and the Spider to end the threat of Siviks and the Kell's Scourge before they could steal any more of her armory's weapons and cause irreparable damage.  


After defeating several forces of Fallen in the EDZ on Earth, an intercepted signal revealed that Siviks's was on Nessus. The Guardians located the Scourge leader at The Conflux alongside [[Telksis the Pillager, Kell's Scourge|Telksis the Pillager]], but escapes and leaves Telksis to defend the Black Armory caches. The Guardians were then able to eliminate Serekis-9, Kell's Scourge who guarded the Gofannon Forge and then dispose of Zevious-3, Forge Warden, thereby securing the Black Armory's forges before the Kell's Scourge could use them. In their failure to capture the forges, the Scourge establish a secret hideout in The Last City's outer abandoned sectors and proceed to target the Black Armory vault, aiming to pillage it but the Guardians catch up and proceed to thwart their efforts. There, the biggest Fallen attack on the City since the Twilight Gap would begin, the [[Scourge of the Past]] [[Raid]]. To ensure their victory, the Scourge utilize a terrifying, enormous war machine named [[Insurrection Prime, Kell's Scourge|Insurrection Prime]] to breach the vault and destroy the Guardians. Insurrection Prime would become on of the most powerful Prime Servitors ever encountered by the Guardians, rivaling Aksis, Archon Prime himself in sheer power.
In time, the Guardians aided the Spider in ridding him of his brother and his [[Kell's Scourge|gang]] while assisting Ada in reclaiming the Armory's lost secrets in the process.  
 
After an immense, chaotic battle that reduces to ruin, the forces of the City succeed in destroying Sivik's army and his Prime Servitor monstrosity, saving the Black Armory Vault from falling into the wrong hands.
 
Later on, the Guardians finally manage to track down and confront Siviks himself in the Niobe Labs where the mad leader aimed to capture the Izanagi's Burden to unlock the Obsidian Accelerator and use its ability to become a walking mobile forge which would've heavily upgraded Fallen weapon and armory. Despite Siviks using the labs defense protocols to his advantage, the Guardians were able to best his defenses and Fallen reinforcements. Siviks then releases The Black Recluse to protect the final forge, named precisely to mock the Spider, but is thwarted by the Guardians. In a final standoff Siviks, the Spider's mad brother, is put to an end, helping Ada-1 and the City and reclaim the Black Armory's secrets and technology. Thus, the Kell's Scourge is left leaderless and utterly crippled.
