Two years after his initial defeat on Mars, Nokris would resurface as the Supplicant to the Witch-Queen herself, playing his role as a catalyst to intervene with the [[Pyramids]]' messages at the [[Tree of Silver Wings]] on [[Io]]. Armed with Savathûn's [[Savathûn's Witness|massive Shriekers]], the Supplicant would shroud the [[Cradle]] with the Witch Queen's interference and even lay a trap out for [[Eris Morn]] and the [[Guardian]]; threatening the life of the former and pulling the latter into the Witch Queen's [[High Coven|court]] within the [[Ascendant Plane]]. Eris barely survives her encounter and had saved the Guardian in tow from the full force of the Witness [[Shrieker]]s.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/6/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]], [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/a-shadow-overhead A Shadow Overhead]''</ref>

For a period of eighteen weeks, Nokris commanded his aunt's [[Savathûn's Brood|brood]] and the [[Taken]] to swarm the Tree and shroud it with Savathûn's influence with one of her Witnesses, barring the Black Fleet's communications directly with Eris and the Guardians. Each week, the [[Guardian]]s would face one of the massive Shriekers at the Cradle before they are summoned back to the Ascendant Plane, to which Nokris mocks them in whispers and even insult their [[Ghost]] at one point, drawing comparisons to a [[Worm]]. Nonetheless, the Guardian's efforts wore proven successful at destroying the massive Shriekers and allowing Eris to briefly interpret the Pyramids' messages with the [[Seed of Silver Wings]].<ref>'''Bungie (2020/6/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]], [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-interference-means-to-an-end-week-1#interference Interference, Means to an End]''</ref>

On the final week, Eris had successfully identified Nokris as the source of the interference just as the Supplicant would summon the Guardian into a new area of the Court, where he would face them directly once more near the backdrop of a massive Taken [[Blight]] the size of a star. Throughout the fight, Nokris addresses them as a mere pawn tied to the everlasting struggle between [[Light]] and [[Darkness]], to which he offered to have them free of in eternal [[Taken|servitude]] to Savathûn. However, the Hive heretic's offers would only fall on deaf ears as the Guardian destroyed him for seemingly a final time, diminishing the Witch-Queen's influence considerably and allowing the Pyramids' final message to reach the Guardian. <ref>'''Bungie (2020/10/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Arrivals]], [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-interference-means-to-an-end-final-week#interference Interference, Means to an End (Final Week)]''</ref>
