 While the Guardians used the [[Altars of Summoning]] in Savathûn's Throne World to empower Eris Morn into the God of Vengeance to confront Xivu Arath, they would come to face a Taken invasion led by the Tormentor [[Axsaeniia, Reverent of the Witness]]. Despite the surprise attack, Axsaeniia and its followers did nothing more than add more tribute to to Eris's tithes.
+===The Hunt for Riven's Clutch===
+With Xivu Arath's banishment from her [[Black Terrace|throne world]], many Taken would become scattered and purposeless. However, despite her waning power, Xivu Arath would still maintain control and influence over some Taken. Despite lacking a commanding will, the Taken would invade and occupy parts of [[Riven's Lair]]. Due to their rabid search for purpose, the [[Sol Divisive]] that were also invading the Dreaming City tried to contain them within the lair.
+Upon catching one of Riven's eggs using the Ley Lines, the Guardian is sent to retrieve it. They fight their way through the lair, defeating Taken forces led by [[Ungoloth, Wayward Beast]] and successfully retrieving the egg. Later, the Guardian is sent to secure the Observatory so they can commune with Mara's [[Harbinger]]. The Guardians fight their way through Taken forces and confront the [[Mukor, Soulkeeper|two]] [[Ugroth, Soulkeeper|soulkeepers]]. Despite their efforts, they were defeated by the Guardian, failing to stop their communion with the Harbinger.
+When one of Riven's eggs is captured by the Sol Divisive, the Guardian returns to the [[Black Garden]] to retrieve it. In the Garden, the Taken attempt to defend Taranis's lair from the Guardian. However, they fail, allowing another egg to fall into the Lightbearers' hands.
+When another Ahamkara egg was caught by the Techeuns, the Taken would invade the lair attempting to corrupt the egg. The Guardian would arrive at the lair, defeating Taken, and their champion, [[Roln'gur, Blade-bound to the Terrace]]. However, the Taken would succeed in corrupting the egg. Despite this setback, [[Mara Sov]] came up with a solution: they would acquire a Taken Essentia from completing an Ascendant Challenge, and then allow the whim to feed on their desires. Ultimately, the Guardian and their allies would succeed in cleansing the egg of its corruption.
+====Blighted Vengeance====
+During the Dark Age, a castle belonging to the Warlord [[Naeem]] was raided by the [[House of Kings]]. Naeem was killed during the attack and would make one last wish of vengeance on the slain Ahamkara [[Hefnd]]. Many years later, Hefnd would take advantage of the Taken's desire for purpose, calling them to the ruined castle and using their corruption to raise the dead House of Kings members as [[Scorn]], as vengeance for the fallen Warlord. Later [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fikrul]], leading his own group of Scorn independent from the Witness, sends his Broken Knights led by [[Rathil, First Broken Knight of Fikrul|Rathil]] to claim the Scorn at the castle.
+Searching for more evidence of the Scorn presence and Riven claiming the region is claimed by another Ahamkara, Guardians are sent by Crow and Petra to investigate. Upon arriving further up the mountain, the Guardians defeat Rathil. However, they are teleported into prison by a Blighted Chimera serving as Hefnd's avatar. Breaking free from the prison, they traverse further through the fortress and defeat the [[Locus of Wailing Grief]]. Arriving at the summit, the Guardians slay the Blighted Chimera, [[Hefnd's Vengeance, Blighted Chimaera|Hefnd's Vengeance]]. Exploring further through the castle and collecting the Ahamkara's bones, they learn about the relationship between Naeem and Hefnd.

 While all Taken are enslaved to their master's will, more powerful Taken retain a degree of independent thought and initiative, mostly at the discretion of the master themselves, to "keep them interesting." After Oryx's defeat, the Taken Knight Malok, Pride of Oryx, attempted to seize the vacant throne for himself. Other Taken had been allowed or managed to keep a modicum of free will, such as Quria, Blade Transform and Riven, they were still subservient to the cause of the Darkness. Other Taken, such as [[Noru'usk, Servant of Oryx]], have aspirations to ascend while many, like [[Keksis, the Betrayed]], are lost and leaderless.
-It has been shown that Taken corruption can be reversed, as Kalli, Shuro Chi, and [[Sedia]] were able to be "cured" of their Taken influence, though if the process can be repeated on non-[[Awoken]] remains to be seen.
+It has been shown that Taken corruption can be reversed, as Kalli, Shuro Chi, and [[Sedia]] were able to be "cured" of their Taken influence, though if the process can be repeated on non-[[Awoken]] remains to be seen. Another process would be used to cleanse the corruption on one of Riven's clutch by using the Taken's own hunger to devour itself.
