When [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]]'s sister, [[Savathûn]], went into hiding for interfering with the [[Witness]]'s messages to the [[Guardian]]s, the Hive god took this opportunity to consolidate her authority to all of the Hive within the [[Sol System]]. Seeking to establish a foothold over the power vacuum left by her sister, the God of War sent her High Celebrant to oversee the creation of the [[Wrathborn]] using [[Cryptolith]]s embedded across the system, including on the [[Moon]], the [[Tangled Shore]], and the [[Dreaming City]]. He would also hunt the excommunicated Witch Queen and wrestle the Hive in the system free of her schemes.<ref name="Immolant">'''Bungie (2020/11/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Hunt]]'', ''[[Weblore]]: [[Weblore#DREAD NOT|Immolant Pt. 2]]''</ref> | When [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]]'s sister, [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]], went into hiding for interfering with the [[The Witness|Witness]]'s messages to the [[Guardian]]s, the Hive god took this opportunity to consolidate her authority to all of the Hive within the [[Sol System]].

With the entirety of the Scarlet Court, led by [[Crota, Son of Oryx|Crota's]] surviving daughters [[Voshyr]] and [[Kinox]], having gathered into one place at the [[Enduring Abyss]], their communion with the Hive God was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the [[Warlock]] [[Osiris]]. Facing an overwhelming onslaught of [[Light]], fifteen noble-brood were incinerated by his [[Dawnblade]], including Voshyr and her kin [[Yishra]] and [[Ayriax]], while [[Kinox]] was consumed by a [[Nova Bomb]] alongside her son [[Ulg'Urin]] and his Knight guard. Only the High Celebrant stood unscathed from the ferocious assault and was called upon by Osiris to face him.<ref name="Immolant"/> | ||
Xivu Arath would only draw strength from the Warlock's violent fervor and the deaths of the noble Hive; her will projected from the Cryptolith dispelled his [[Dawnblade|Well of Radiance]] and attempted to enthrall Osiris into a [[Wrathborn]]. However, the Warlock resisted the efforts to corrupt him, causing the High Celebrant to instead carve runes into the stone on either side of Osiris to offer him up as a sacrifice for the War God while declaring that all tithes of war went to her. He then plunged his sword into the stone above Osiris head to complete the ritual and activating the runes. The High Celebrant tells Osiris to die well before it departs back into Luna's depths. However, Osiris escaped Xivu Arath's grasp with thanks to the sacrifice of his Ghost [[Sagira]].<ref name="Immolant"/> | Xivu Arath would only draw strength from the Warlock's violent fervor and the deaths of the noble Hive; her will projected from the Cryptolith dispelled his [[Dawnblade|Well of Radiance]] and attempted to enthrall Osiris into a [[Wrathborn]].
