In recent times, the Vex had suffered numerous setbacks across the system - a large number of Vex Axis Minds were destroyed by Guardians, leaving the Vex network in disarray.

Praedyth himself was forgotten until the time of the [[Taken War]], when the [[Taken]] began to blight the Vex network. After receiving a distress signal from Praedyth, [[The Guardian]] was sent to the Vault to investigate and was unexpectedly granted access by the Vex. Inside, the Guardian discovered a series of [[Dead Ghost]]s Praedyth had left behind. Praedyth revealed through recordings within the Ghosts that he had seen what the Vex had calculated would be their future: eons hence, they would be completely corrupted by the Taken, becoming an eternal part of the legacy of Oryx, the Taken King. Although the Vex were able to foresee this future and compelled to seek a way to avert it, they concluded that this grim fate was inevitable without the [[Light]]; allowing the Guardian to fight the Taken [[blight]] that plagued them was an act of desperation. Traveling through a portal, the Guardian was transported to the Vex's future, where the blight was defeated, the Vex were spared from their fate, and Praedyth's remains and Ghost were recovered. Despite this moment of cooperation, however, the Vex still had no intention of returning the favor or sparing [[the Last City]].<ref name = "Destiny"/>
