===Hunt for the Scorned Barons===
The emergence of the [[Scorn]] saw the Spider's Syndicate become embroiled in conflict with the Scorn, who successfully drove the Syndicate away from their original territory. In search of the Spider, Petra and the Guardian eliminate the Scorn's forces near the Spider's hiding place and later meet with him to negotiate a deal.

At first, the Spider was not very interested in getting involved in a man-hunt for Uldren, but he greatly desires the head of Uldren for driving him from his former territory. Thus, the Spider offers the Guardian and Petra a deal: the Spider would give the Guardian all the intel they need to hunt the Barons and in return, the Guardians would hunt them down and accept any favor the Spider asks within the future. Despite the terms, the Guardian agrees.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/09/04)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/scorned Scorned]''</ref> With the Spiders intel, the Guardians accept bounties from him and begin to dismantle the Scorn's operations. The Guardians succeed in killing [[Araskes, the Trickster]], [[Yaviks, the Rider]] and [[Kaniks, the Mad Bomber]].

Later The Spider then provides the Guardians intel of [[Pirrha, the Rifleman]], the one who killed Cayde's Ghost. As they enter his snipers nest, the Guardian realize the nest was a trap as Pirrha's forces attack them. Surviving the trap, Pirrha contacts them, threatening to destroy their Ghost just as he did with Cayde's. Fighting past Pirrha's forces and keeping their Ghost safe from Pirrha's sniping, the Guardians manage to corner the Rifleman. Despite his Crossbow weapon and bothersome decoys, the Guardian kills Pirrha, avenging Cayde's Ghost.

Within the fields of the Tangled Shore, the Guardian finds remains of Servitors, completely drained of their ether. The Spider takes this as evidence that Reksis Vahn, the Hangman, a Scorn Baron with a hatred for Servitors, is nearby. Despite his great strength and Flame Cauldron weapon, the Guardian manages to slay the sadistic Baron.
 
With another tip from the Spider, the Guardian search for Hiraks, the Mindbender, a Scorn Baron with a morbid fascination for the Hive. The search for Hiraks takes them to a downed Hive Warship from the Taken War, which became a breeding ground for the Hive stranded in the Shore. Within the Ascendant Plane, the Guardian face off against Hiraks, who is stronger and more powerful within his throne world, but despite his Hive servants and Ascendant powers, they kill the Mindbender which causes his Ascendant Plane to destabilize. The Guardian manages to escape just in time before the Ascendant Plane collapses.
 
With most of the Barons dead, the Guardian manage to track down the Baron's second-in-command, Elykris, the Machinist to Salvage Zone QX. There, the Machinist challenges the Guardian and forces them to question their motives in the deaths of her comrades. Nonetheless, the Guardian battles with Elykris where she unleashes the full force of her stolen and salvaged weaponry. Even with the force of her weaponry and tactics, the Guardian manages to kill Elykris and destroy her stockpile.
 
With the Machinist's death, the Scorn's leadership has been reduced to Fikrul, the Fanatic, the Scorn's Archon, and Uldren himself. the Guardian receives new intel from the Spider who confirms that Uldren and Fikrul have been sighted at the Awoken Watchtower, a place which is said to house the Awoken's deepest secrets. Within the structure, Uldren orders Frikul to hold off the enemy while he finishes his work.
 
Gathering their strength, the Spider's main forces engage with the Scorn's defenses while the Guardian breaches past them and enters the Awoken Watchtower. At the entrance, they face off with Frikul who desires revenge for his fellow Barons. Despite his Dark Ether powers, the Guardian manages to kill Frikul and later dispose Uldren.
