Three years following the Taken War, the Dreaming City remained infested by Oryx's leftover Taken unaware from the outside until [[Uldren Sov]] was manipulated by Riven into unsealing the City using a shard of the [[Traveler]] and the Taken-tainted Darkness within himself, unleashing an [[Voice of Riven|agent]] of hers which promptly devoured Uldren. The Guardian quickly killed the Taken Chimera and fulfilled their vengeance for [[Cayde-6]].

The Guardian quickly killed the Taken Chimera and fulfilled their vengeance for [[Cayde-6]]. The [[Scorn]] that accompanied Uldren and the [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fanatic]] remained in the city to exact revenge for their deaths and were met with opposition by the Taken. | ||
[[Petra Venj]], investigating the source of Uldren's corruption, gave the Guardian an Awoken talisman that could grant them 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 and Uldren's corruption 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. | [[Petra Venj]], investigating the source of Uldren's corruption, gave the Guardian an Awoken talisman that could grant them both entry into the City.

Two weeks later, a Guardian Raid team was quickly formed and breached their way into the [[Keep of Voices]] located at the heart of the city; In the process 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]]. In ending the Taken Ahamkara, Riven's wish cursed the city; warping it in-between physical reality and the [[Ascendant Realm|Ascendant Plane]] with Taken energies having saturated and engulfed huge portions of the city. Soon enough, the entire realm was plunged into an unending battle between the Guardians and Awoken [[Corsair]]s against the armies of [[Taken]] and [[Hive]] sent under [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]] and [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]] with remnants of [[Scorn]] in between crossfires. | |||
Meanwhile, Petra would provide tactical support for a [[Vanguard]] strike team to free the last Techeun [[Sedia]] of her Taken corruption. | Meanwhile, Petra would provide tactical support for a [[Vanguard]] strike team to free the last Techeun [[Sedia]] of her Taken corruption. | ||
