Nokris was | Nokris was originally the second son of Oryx, thus the brother to [[Crota]]. But where Crota was warrior-born, Norkis was physically weak in comparison and was thus disfavored by his father. Seeking to prove himself, Nokris approached the [[Worm Gods]] themselves. However, while most of the worms rejected the disfavored son, [[Xol, Will of the Thousands]] remained. Fearing an attack from [[Yul, the Honest Worm]], Xol made a pact with the forgotten child and the two departed to find a world to rule.<ref name="NarPre" /> Norkis informed his god that he had chosen the planet [[Mars]]. | ||
The only reference to Nokris known to the [[Guardians]] prior to his awakening on | Oryx soon learned about his son's activities and was furious. The King of the Hive then removed all references of his disowned son from [[the World's Grave]] and the [[Books of Sorrow]]. Only a statue remained. The rest of the Hive began to view Nokris as a heretic for going outside of the [[Sword Logic]], speaking about resurrection and speaking with a Worm God. However, somehow Nokris and Xol became trapped within the frozen ice caps of the planet. | ||

Many centuries later, after the deaths of Oryx and Crota and the end of the [[Red War]], Nokris and his master were awakened by [[Warsat]] impacts. Together, they sought the destruction of the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] for delaying them. However, interference came in the form of the [[Guardian]] working with [[Ana Bray]]. Nokris encountered the Guardian during their mission of using a shard of the Traveler as bait to lure Xol and destroy him. However, Nokris faces them instead and fights the warrior of light in a fierce battle. Despite his power, Nokris was defeated and his master would soon fall to the hands of the Guardian with the aid of Rasputin. | |||
