Out of revenge, [[Eriana-3]] led five other Guardians in an attempt to kill Crota, but Crota managed to evade permanent death by escaping his [[Ascendant Realm]] with the Hive capturing his soul in order to be placed in a crystal in the real world.<ref>Bungie (2014-9-9), Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities#Crota's_End|Crota's End]]</ref><ref name="Crota">Bungie (2014-9-9), Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Crota,_Son_of_Oryx|Crota, Son of Oryx]]</ref> Only one of the Guardians, [[Eris Morn]], survived to tell the tale. His sect also plays a major role in Crota's attempted revival during ''The Dark Below'', which threatened the whole [[City]] with the addition of a full-scale Hive invasion. The crystal tethering his soul in the Chamber of Night would be destroyed, banishing him from the physical world and thereby preventing the Hive invasion of Earth.

Crota's demise ultimately caught the attention of his father, [[Oryx]]. Enraged by the death of his son, Oryx would bring his [[Dreadnaught]] into the Solar system and lead an army of [[Hive]] and [[Taken]] in revenge against the Guardians.<ref name = "The Taken King">Bungie (2015-6-15), Destiny: The Taken King, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard</ref> | Crota's demise ultimately caught the attention of his father, [[Oryx]].

Ironically, Crota was essential to the Guardians' need to enter into Oryx's Ascendant Realm. Returning to the Chamber of Night that tended to the crystal that house Crota's soul, the Guardians were able to gain a shard of the crystal but it did not hold of piece of his soul. The Guardians now had to disrupt Crota's death ceremony to gain a sliver of his soul. Entering Crota's Fortress, the Guardians narrowly slipped past the Hive defending his tomb and were able to fill the shard with Crota's death essence. With the Ascendant Shard, the Guardians were successfully able to enter Oryx's Throne and defeat him. Like father, like son; Oryx would later fall to the Guardians who killed Crota in the [[King's Fall]] Raid. | Ironically, Crota was essential to the Guardians' need to enter into Oryx's Ascendant Realm.

Crota's disowned, heretical and forgotten brother, [[Nokris]], would make his own stand against the Guardians after arising from slumber in the icy depths of [[Mars]]' [[Hellas Basin]] with his master, the Worm God [[Xol, Will of the Thousands]]. The herald of Xol sought to conquer the red planet for his god but like his brother, sisters and their father, Nokris would fall against the Warrior of Light. | |||
