 Though the Vanguard made efforts to follow the Witness, each one failed. However, upon Titan's return and reuniting with Deputy Commander Sloane, they learned from the rogue Worm [[Ahsa]] that the only one who may know of a possible way to pass through the gateway is the Witch Queen herself. Realizing that they would have to allow Immaru to bring back their most devious of foes, the Vanguard felt they had no other choice since their options were already severely limited. Reaching out to Savathûn's Ghost and stating their terms, Immaru countered with a bargain of his own: the Witch Queen anticipated that the Guardians would need her help and has the answers they may need, but first, they must deal with her sister, Xivu Arath, for good. Despite the terms, Ikora and Eris agreed, with the latter creating a relic called the [[Acolyte's Staff]] to help the Guardian's weave the Hive's spells and reveal paths as Immaru guided them. However, in a recording the Witch Queen left behind within a secret location within Savathûn's Throne World, [[Savathûn's Spire]], they cannot confront the Hive God of War head-on, for Xivu Arath feeds off of all conflict. Only a Hive God of equal strength could possibly defeat Xivu Arath, under the rules of the Sword Logic.
-Understanding that only she can become the Hive God needed to defeat Xivu Arath, Eris Morn began preparations for a ritual to transform herself. Ikora firmly speaks against this plan, fearing what it will do to her. Eris Morn plainly states that there is no other way to defeat Xivu Arath, for a continued stalemate with the War God is not feasible. Only leeching from the Hive's tithe system, with the Guardian serving as her acolyte, would Eris become strong enough to defeat Xivu Arath. The ritual began, and speaking the Worm Gods' names, Eris's form contorts, Hive chitin covering her body, until she became an entity akin to the Hive. As the new Hive God of Vengeance, Eris directed the Guardians of the Vanguard to begin collecting their tithes by using the ritual sites beneath Savathûn's Spire, the [[Altars of Summoning]]. Through the tithes collected by Guardians, Eris Morn began feeding, slowly growing in strength.}}

Through the tithes collected by Guardians, Eris Morn began feeding, slowly growing in strength.
+Eventually, after many weeks of tithing, Eris Morn calls the Guardian to her Athenaeum, telling them that it was time to return to the Witch Queen’s Oubliette and perform a ritual that would allow Eris to directly challenge the Hive God of War. Once there, Immaru attempts to run away, believing that this plan would end disastrously, however, Eris forces him to stay, saying that he would either witness their triumph, or die as one of them. Opening the Alter of The Sword, the Guardian enters the ritual space and is immediately forced to fight Xivu Arath’s champion, [[Leviathan-Eater, Bane of the Ammonites]]. After managing to defeat the Hive champion, Eris Morn reveals her true plan. By having Immaru resurrect the Witch Queen, Eris would then slay her once more, gaining all of her power, eons and eons of hoarded lies and deceit, making her the most powerful Hive God to ever exist. Using this power, instead of finishing the ritual and challenging the War God, Eris uses her newfound power to sever Xivu Arath’s connection to her Throne World and banish her from it, making her mortal and able to be killed. Eris then collapses to the ground, no longer the Hive God of Vengeance.
+Afterwards, Savathun is resurrected once again, laughing and claiming that she deserved that, and she delights in learning that Eris has managed to make Xivu mortal. Ikora then confronts Savathun regarding her promise to show the Vanguard how to enter the portal, but Savathun merely says that they already know how, as she had just shown them. Ikora threatens Savathûn, and the Witch Queen claims that Ikora doesn’t have the power to take her on, but the Guardian butts in, saying they did. With a sigh, Savathun offers a peace offering, her faithful First Ghost Immaru would stay in Vanguard custody willingly and could be crushed at anytime if the Vanguard felt that Savathun was plotting against them. With that, Savathun leaves the room, laughing and leaving the four more confused than ever.
