====The Final Battle of Light and Dark====

As their army set source for Luna, Elsie eventually confronted Zavala about the conversation she overheard between him and Mara. She questioned why he suspected Ana and he claimed that something was not right about her. Elsie noted that he had been encouraging her to listen to Ana as well, but Zavala claimed he had been attempting to discern if something was wrong with her as well. She called him a bastard for his manipulations and noted that he would still be rotting in the wreckage of ''The Almighty'' if it had not been for Ana. She warned him that if anything had to be done about Ana, it would fall on her to do it as her sister. Zavala hoped that if the worst came to pass she would be able to act for all of their sakes.<ref name="DF8">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Dark_Future#Chapter_8:_Migration|The Dark Future - Chapter 8: Migration]]</ref>

Upon reaching Luna, Elsie and Ana joined Mara in traveling to the surface as Zavala gathered the Light within himself and Rasputin piloted ''The Leviathan''. As they traveled, Elsie apologized to Ana for costing them their relationship in all the years she spent hiding, claiming she had believed it was the right thing to do. Ana asked for her to save it for later, after the battle was over. As their dropship doors opened they came under instant attack by waves of [[Thrall]]. Fighting through them, they soon saw the [[Scarlet Keep]] in the distance with Eris drawing power from the [[Pyramid (Luna)|Pyramid]] below the surface and directing an army of Dark Guardians towards them. The battle quickly devolves into chaos, with the trio of Elsie, Ana, and Mara heading for Elsie while Rasputin used his defenses to destroy a swarm of Awoken defectors piloting ships. Elsie watched in awe as Zavala streaked overhead, overcharged with Light, and collided straight into the Scarlet Keep, destroying it in a massive explosion and wounding Savathûn and knocking Eris down. The trio reached Eris as she regained her footing, but Elsie was shocked when she thanked Ana for gathering all her foes into one place. Elsie turned toward her sister and saw her draw a knife to stab Mara. Attempting to stop her, Elsie was frozen in place by Ana's own hidden Stasis powers and was unable to stop her from killing the Awoken Queen.<ref name="DF8"/>

As Mara fell to the ground dead, Elsie yelled in horror and asked why Ana had done this. Her sister claimed that the Darkness could not thrive until all followers of the Light were dead and that they could go to a world without conflict once that was accomplished. Elsie rejected this and her sister's pleas that they could be a family again, unwilling to side with the Darkness. She readied her own Stasis powers and engaged her sister in battle, remembering her promise to Zavala despite seeing Ana's sadness over her decision. Ana swiftly overpowered her and damaged several of her core components. Falling to the ground, Elsie watched in despair as Mara's army was slaughtered by Eris's forces. Eris stood over Elsie and mocked her, noting that the void she had left in her sister's heart by trying to protect her had been filled by the Darkness. However, Elsie then pointed to the Traveler and noted that Eris had other problems besides her, as it had begun glowing with Light. As Eris directed her army to destroy the Traveler, Elsie was stabbed once more by Ana, but managed to break free of her Stasis hold. Blasting her sister away from her she tried once more to convince Ana she had been corrupted, but recognizing her sister was too far gone and stabbed her. As the life left Ana, Elsie saw what little remained of the sister she loved resurface, and vowed to kill Eris in revenge. She raced towards her foe, but saw the Darkness gathering around the increasing glow of Light from the Traveler which then exploded and bathed everything in its Light before leaving Elsie in darkness.<ref name="DF9">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Dark_Future#Chapter_9:_The_Return|The Dark Future - Chapter 9: The Return]]</ref>
