During the Red War, when [[Ghaul]] caged the Travelers light, Shayura and her fireteam were currently hunting an unknown creature in the catacombs of Old Chicago.  
Later, she was stationed on [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], and faced the Hive there. Shayura fought a [[Knight]] that continuously resurrected itself, presumably [[Takul-Dar]]. Herself being lightless, the experience left her deeply traumatized.

During the [[Pyramid]]s Arrival, Shayura came under heavy stress, mostly in relation to [[Sloane|Deputy Commander Sloane]]s refusal to leave Titan and a fear of losing her Light again. Consequently, she frequently came into conflict with her friend Aisha.

She would soon have many targets as the use of [[Stasis]] became more widespread. At a later point, she had seemingly caused multiple final deaths, and during a Trials match with her fireteam she tried to do so again to an opponent who used Stasis. She was however stopped by Aisha, who was using Stasis as well. Shayura was then imprisoned by the Vanguard.

During the [[Endless Night]], Shayura apparently escaped containment. Disillusioned by the Vanguard's willingness to make peace with enemies, and seeing her old fireteam as traitors, she began to work alone, hunting anyone she deemed an agent of the Darkness. On Venus, in one of her attacks, she killed a Hunter, his Ghost and an [[Eliksni]] non-combatant of the [[House of Light]].

Following the end of the Endless Night, Shayura would later face the Hive of Savathûn's [[Lucent Brood]]. She faced them like she had with other Hive before but to her shock and panic, she would encounter a Knight that was accompanied by a Ghost. The Ghost would resurrect the Knight like a Guardian, forcing Shayura to battle the Hive again but after slaying it, Shayura lunged after the Ghost before it could resurrect the Knight, destroying it but the deed shattered her perception of all that she knew. Shayura would end up in the shadow of the Traveler in the Last City, surrendering herself, but would be surrounded by City security and her former teammates, Reed-7 and Aisha, but couldn't acknowledge them due to her traumatic experience with the Lucent Brood. Aisha attempts to comfort her friend, swearing to get her the help she needs.

{{Quote|Each scar I bear, a trial survived.|Shayura.}}
Shayura is a very troubled individual, having suffered a traumatic experience when she lost her light during the Red War, nearly lost her life to the Hive and took the disappearance of [[Sloane]], whom she looked up to greatly, pretty hard. Her trauma caused her to have flashbacks or delusions of those fearful moments, leading to periods of violence which was apparent during her matches in the Trials of Osiris, repeatedly murdering her opponents when the match was over. Her behavior has caused a great deal of concern in her teammates, especially her closest friend, Aisha. Though they tried to help her, Shayura slowly grew disillusioned with the world around herself, believing that the people seek shelter underneath the Traveler out of delusion and desperation. Despite believing that the Traveler was indifferent towards Humanity, its reformation drove Shayura to defend the Light, whatever the cost. However, this dedication would enter into dangerous extremism.

Shayura would then begin to hunt down Guardians who wielded the power of [[Stasis]], finding them to be "traitors" to the Light. This would prove to be the last straw for her teammates, as they tried to stop her from executing a Guardian who wielded Stasis during a Trails match. Their attempts to stop her and Aisha revealing that she too wields Stasis brought feelings of deep betrayal within Shayura. The only one to stay by her side would be her Ghost, but even he began to be unnerved and saddened by his Guardian's darkened and extreme behavior.
