[[Petra Venj]], investigating the source of Uldren's corruption, gave the Guardian a Awoken talisman that they could grant both entry into the City. Having returned for the first time to the Dreaming City since the Taken War, Petra surmised Riven as the cause of the Taken after having made contact with Queen [[Mara Sov]] at the [[Oracle Engine]]. At the Queen's behest, Petra enlisted the support from the [[Vanguard]] to have Riven killed and her heart cleansed of her [[Taken]] essence.

A Guardian Raid team was quickly formed and breached their way into the corrupted heart of the city, where they freed the [[Techeun]]s [[Kalli]] and [[Shuro Chi]] from their Taken corruption. While the Taken Riven baited the Guardians into killing her, they inadvertently made a single collective wish, allowing Riven to alter the rules of ascendancy within the Dreaming City according to [[Toland]].

While the Taken Riven baited the Guardians into killing her, they inadvertently made a single collective wish, allowing Riven to alter the rules of ascendancy within the Dreaming City according to [[Toland]]. Instead of ending the curse, Riven's wish increasingly worsened its conditions; Taken energies having saturated and engulfed huge portions of the city. In addition, separate armies of [[Scorn]] and [[Hive]] breached the city and began vying for control against both Guardians, Awoken Corsairs and the Taken.


As the curse continued to blight the Dreaming City for three weeks, Petra was able to identify the true source of the city's Taken curse: [[Dûl Incaru]], a daughter of the Witch-Queen and the mastermind behind her mother's scheme to access the [[Distributary]] using the Awoken secrets found within the City, commanding the curse from Mara's desecrated throne-world of [[Eleusinia]]. With the curse now at its peak, the [[Techeun]]s used the [[Blind Well]] (which was kept charged with [[Light]] by the Guardians) and open a rift into Eleusinia, where the Guardians could confront the Witch and her [[Darkblade]] bodyguards.
