A year after the [[Taken War]], while looting ancient tombs from the Golden Age, the [[Fallen]] [[House of Devils]] managed to unearth SIVA once more.

The Guardians saw first hand at what the Splicers with SIVA can do, and they are definitely augmented by it even seeing old enemies reanimated and friendly weapon systems turned against them. However, the Guardians learned that the Fallen have not utilized SIVA's full potential, they had to make their way towards the replication chamber where the Iron Lords died their final deaths. When they arrived, they had to fight against reanimated Iron Lords infused with SIVA, but in the end, the chamber was destroyed and the Splicer's production of it disrupted, however, there was still the Archon to deal with, The Guardians raided his lair and experienced the power of the self-proclaimed Machine God but was felled in the end. | |||

The threat posed by SIVA and the Fallen was eventually neutralized, with the Splicers stopped and the replication chamber destroyed. Two years later, it would be revealed that the [[Vanguard]] had placed all areas affected by SIVA under quarantine. This was initially believed to be limited to the [[Cosmodrome]] until [[The Guardian]] discovered that their [[Outbreak Prime|old rifle forged from SIVA]] was still producing additional nanites even after it was presumed lost in the fall of the old [[Tower]]. This placed one of the Cryptarchy's vaults under quarantine, which was then breached by Fallen serving [[Eramis, the Shipstealer]]. However, due to assistance from [[Mithrax, the Forsaken]], the Guardian managed to intercept the heist, take back what was rightfully theirs and repel the Fallen before they could escape with a new supply of SIVA. | The threat posed by SIVA and the Fallen was eventually neutralized, with the Splicers stopped and the replication chamber destroyed.

There were even some SIVA nodes found on [[Felwinter Peak]] when the Guardian was led there by Rasputin that would reveal his tail to them. | ||
