Following her imprisonment and eventual escape, Shayura lost all faith in what she once knew, feeling that all her friends either abandoned or betrayed her. She would continue with her mission to hunt down Guardians who wielded Stasis. Further, she refused to accept peace with former enemies, as the [[Vanguard]] had with their armistice with the [[Cabal]] and their alliance with the [[Fallen|Eliksni]] [[House of Light]]. She would even murder such individuals, including non-combatants, much to the disgust of a [[Hunter]] she was pursuing, who went as far as to compare her to [[Dredgen Yor]] himself and [[Shin Malphur]].

Ultimately, her encounters with the Lightbearing Hive of the [[Lucent Brood]] would completely shatter all perceptions she once had, especially with what she understood about the Light and [[Darkness]]. Seeing the Hive, the greatest enemy of humanity, bearing the Light against the Guardians left a traumatizing impact on Shayura's psyche, leaving her in a defeated, nearly cationic state. Feeling that she had nothing left, Shayura surrendered herself to her teammates and the [[Last City]], with her teammates deeply saddened at her state.

During her re-imprisonment within the Last City, Shayura managed to overcome the near catatonic state she had been in since her encounter with the Lightbearing Hive. However, due to that encounter and subsequent shattering of her previous worldview in which those who used the Light were good and those who used the Darkness were evil, Shayura suffered from immense guilt from the murders she committed on what she now realised were truly good people despite their use of Stasis. Her [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-traumatic_stress_disorder PTSD] is now so severe to the point where she can no longer pray or close her eyes without seeing the faces of all the people she murdered and hearing them beg her for their lives, causing her to be reduced to tears. Like everyone else, Shayura's faith in the Traveler has also been deeply shaken by the Lightbearing Hive and she starts to wonder who judges [[Paracausality|paracausal]] entities like the Traveler and the [[Pyramid]]s. The disgraced [[Warlock]] has also become fearful of others due to the immense guilt she feels, as when she heard that her psychiatrist, Doctor [[Syeda Uzair|Syeda]], wanted to bring in some guests for their next session, Shayura immediately became defensive, fearing who these guests might be, out of shame for her actions.
