Shortly after Ana's return to the Last City, the Darkness caused the disappearance of Titan, Mercury, Mars and Io. In response to the assault by the Darkness, the Traveler reformed and sent out a burst of Light that halted the advance of its ancient foe. Setting up a workshop in a partition between the Tower and the City, Ana promised Zavala that she would rebuild Rasputin to help defend humanity from the Darkness. She was soon visited by [[Osiris]], whose exile had been lifted by the Vanguard. As she continued to work on the experimental Exo chassis the two Guardians discussed the recent events. Osiris questioned if she had overheard a resonant tone when the Darkness attacked Rasputin and played a recording one he had gathered from the [[The Lighthouse (Destiny 2)|Lighthouses]] of Mercury. Ana told him she had been preoccupied at the time, but did not recall any tone. The Warlock then criticized her for not using her experience to aid the Vanguard more actively and instead was only trying to dredge up the dead. She shot back that he believed himself to be the only who could play god and suggested he go see [[Emperor Calus]], suggesting that the two would get along well in their arrogance. Osiris ignored her insult and requested that she run the tone through her and Rasputin's database. She sarcastically agreed to the request but told Osiris to use the Ghost-vine to contact her instead of coming in person from then on before focusing once more on her work.<ref>'''Bungie, (2020/11/13)''', ''[[Weblore]]: [https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/49746 Immolant Pt. 1]''</ref>

Ana is invited to Europa by the being known to the Last City as the [[Elisabeth Bray|Exo Stranger]], but she reveals her true identity is Elsie Bray. As they converse, Ana learns of some of the crime committed by her grandfather [[Clovis Bray I]], and admits that she while knew that Clovis was bad, she did not expect what she found on Europa. Ana would then become surprised and upset after learning that not only is her sister looking for Clovis's Stasis research but that she and the Young Wolf are actually using Stasis, despite what the Darkness has done and declares using it will not end well. Though her sister states that Stasis is just a tool, Ana is not convinced but is piqued when her sister mentions that it did not end well "before". Elise reveals that she is not from her timeline, she came from another timeline where Ana was too obsessed with her past for her own good and she was too selfish for her good. In her timeline, the Darkness won and Elsie's efforts to shield Ana from it ultimately drove her to it. Though Elsie apologizes for keeping so much from her and now just wants to be there for her, Ana is left almost speechless. Unable to handle what she was told, yet glad to see her sister alive, Ana leaves to process things.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Born_in_Darkness#Born_in_Darkness_Part_3|Born in Darkness: Part 3]]</ref>

After some time and much thinking, Ana realizes that her sister truly cares for her if she went through all the trouble to keep her safe. Returning to Europa to find her sister, Ana locates her within the main lab of [[Creation]]. The two Bray sisters reconcile and vow that no matter what truths they face, they will face it together. After their reconciliation, the Guardian activates the Clovis AI found in the lab, a machine that housed the consciousness of Clovis I, her grandfather. Though Ana found speaking to her grandfather after so many centuries to be incredible, her mood turned sour when she learned that her grandfather researched potent Darkness energy but only ever intended it for the Bray name and legacy, unconcerned for its use for the good of humanity. He further mocked her sister as she once helped him in Project Exo and stood beside him as he continued his research. Their "family reunion" ends bitterly as Clovis states that no matter what happens, she will always be a Bray. Elsie comments that Clovis had always been problematic but he always had some humanity before the Darkness stripped what was left of it. Ana scoffs at her grandfather, stating that he cannot control them anymore and they should use the power of Stasis and his research exactly how he does not want it: for the good of humanity. Having what they need from Clovis, Ana and her sister depart from the lab.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Born_in_Darkness#Born_in_Darkness_Part_4|Born in Darkness: Part 4]]</ref>
