In the distant past, the [[Hive]] god Auryx sought to obtain the power to Take in order to help him defeat the [[Ecumene]]. He killed his [[Xivu Arath|two]] [[Savathûn|sisters]] to gain an audience with [[Akka]], the [[Worm]] god of Secrets, whom he then slew in turn. Auryx stole the secrets from its flesh and wrote them upon a set of tablets he named the [[Tablets of Ruin]]. | The power to Take had its origins with the [[Witness]], the creator of the [[Black Fleet]] with the power to move worlds between realities. | ||
