Hive: Difference between revisions

Line 223:

Ultimately, after weeks of fighting Taken and deciphering as much as they can form the Darkness' messages, the Guardians finally manage to confront Nokris himself to put an end to Savathûn's interference. Upon entering into a new area of Savathûn's Court, near a Blight the size of a sun, the Guardian faces off against Oryx's exiled spawn once more. Despite Nokris' sorcery and use of his aunt's forces, the Guardian manages to slay Nokris, this time presumably for good.

====End of the Scarlet Court====

{{Quote| There it is. Along with the entire Scarlet Court. Crota's remaining children, and their spawn, can be destroyed in one fell swoop.|Osiris}}

More than a year come full circle, the remaining two daughters of Crota in their hiding along with the very last of the noble dynasty of the once great God-King of the Hive, [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]], were finally silenced. Almost a week after the Guardian's investigation's and toils on [[Europa]], the legendary warlock [[Osiris]] came to Luna after tracking the most potent of the Cryptolith's signals across the Solar System. Beneath the shadow of the Lunar Pyramid, Osiris came across a massive gathering of Hive that featured the remaining entirety of the Scarlet Court, including the daughters, along with the [[High Celebrant of Xivu Arath]]. Unknown to Osiris or likely the Swarm, the High Celebrant was sent to Luna to wrest free the Swarm from [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen| The Witch Queen's]] plans and instead reform Luna in [[Xivu Arath, God of War| Xivu's]] image. A world where all tithes were tribute to her.

In an audacious and "suicidal" move as described by [[Sagira]], Osiris descended upon the gathering as the mighty Phoenix he was and began to slaughter the gathering. In the year since the events of Shadowkeep, [[Voshyr]] and [[Kinox]] had both heirs and sons/daughters of their own - more nobles to Oryx's legacy. These same offspring would be with their respective mothers in their final moments. Voshyr and her two daughters [[Yishra]] and [[Ayriax]] were the first to perish before they could even finish their incantation - incinerated by Osiris' [[Daybreak]]. Kinox was second who attempted fleeing into the crevices of Luna with her son [[Ulg'Urin]] and his cohort of Knights raising shields to defend her only to perish from a [[Nova Bomb]]. The remaining lesser nobles were killed in the slaughter thus effectively leaving not only the Swarm leaderless, but the noble dynasty of Oryx's court shattered once and for all. Osiris was then stripped of his supers when the visage and will of Xivu arath emanating from the large Cryptolith taunted him. Osiris was pinned and around him were cleaved Runes in the stone by the High Celebrant. In a stunning and tragic act, Sagira broke through the oppressive force Xivu projected that was slowly killing Osiris and sacrificed herself - destroying the Cryptolith and projection, saving Osiris but leaving him Ghostless. The light in the place of Sagira's sacrifice remained for days.

With the daughters dead, it is unknown how [[Zulmak, Instrument of Torment|Zulmak]] is continuing to be resurrected, yet in the aftermath of this slaughter, Zulmak is the sole Hive power left of Oryx's broods and is finally the Champion he sought to be long ago.

====Birth of the Wrathborn====

Following the Darkness's arrival, Nokris' fall and various worlds of the Sol System going dark, the Guardians discover a rise of corrupted Hive activity within the Tangled Shore of the Reef. They soon learn that the Hive's God of War, [[Xivu Arath]], has begun to marshal her forces in preparation for the Darkness's next move. To combat this threat, the Guardians agree to a partnership with the Spider and to work with a mysterious Lightborn called the Crow, who is in reality Uldren Sov revived as a Guardian.

Meanwhile amidst the Wrathborn crisis, New Guardians and Old Guardians alike would investigate the appearances and actions of a disgraced Hive wizard [[Navôta, Eir Spawn]]. It was discovered after her murder of [[Shaw Han|Shaw Han's]] fireteam members Cas and Maeve that she was seeking to gather the malcontent broods and swarms in the [[Cosmodrome]] to her aid. Yet after her subsequent defeats, burning of other hideouts, and the rivaly of [[Ak-Baral, Rival of Navôta]] all drawing spawn and power away from her, Navôta was forced to make a final confrontation with the Guardians in the old lunar complex where [[Omnigul, Will of Crota|Omnigul]] had been fought. Despite attempting to bridge a portal to bring more Hive to her aid along with her powers, she was defeated and the Hive in the Cosmodrome further scattered and deprived of leaders.
