Every Fallen house was devastated by Oryx's arrival, with great numbers of Eliksni being Taken and made to serve Oryx. The House of Devils and Kings were both driven from their lairs by a massive Taken offensive that temporarily seized control of the Cosmodrome. The House of Winter also suffered heavy casualties after rescuing another Archon Priest, [[Nixis, Hunger of Oryx|Nixis]], from the [[Prison of Elders]]. The resultant infestation decimated Winter and was only stopped by a determined Guardian counterattack.

The House of Winter also suffered heavy casualties after rescuing another Archon Priest, [[Nixis, Hunger of Oryx|Nixis]], from the [[Prison of Elders]]. The resultant infestation decimated Winter and was only stopped by a determined Guardian counterattack. The only two Houses that appeared to have fully escaped the Taken were the [[House of Exile]] on the Moon, and the House of Wolves; the former being possbiliy a side effect of their proximity to the [[Hellmouth]]. | ||
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the Taken War, elements of the House of Wolves emerged from hiding, rallying under [[Keldar, Archon Priest|Keldar]], an Archon that had escaped the Reef Wars and Skolas' Rebellion. Keldar offered the Wolves a new god to worship, the rebuilt [[Orbiks Prime]], the Wolves' previous god. [[Orbiks Prime]] attempted to reassemble the House on Mars, directing its servants to seize Cabal outposts already weakened by the Taken invasion. However, thanks to intel provided by [[Variks, the Loyal]], the Guardians hunted down Keldar and Orbiks; destroying the Prime Servitor and killing their Archon, leaving the Wolves broken and leaderless; this time, for good. | Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the Taken War, elements of the House of Wolves emerged from hiding, rallying under [[Keldar, Archon Priest|Keldar]], an Archon that had escaped the Reef Wars and Skolas' Rebellion.
